BACKGROUND The original concept of Lomography is come from LOMO company. The company produces optics products, at first it manufactured military cameras for spy to record the evidence so it was a kind of pocket camera. Not stopped by the assembling, LOMO company tried to design some lens during 1925 to 1930, meanwhile the company provided optic aiming devices in world war. Between 1914 to 1936, the compony was in the first period, the industrial economy. The business changed when the specifice camera became popular. The company produced the first Russian camera called "LOMO-compact" and this camera is provided with excellent optics and electronic shutter, controlled by the exposure device. Due to its light weight (only 250 gr), small size (107x68x43,5 mm) and durability of the body, you can always carry it in your pocket or handbag [1] . And besed on LOMO-compact, our LOMO-LC A was born. In 1991, a group of Vienness student found this type of camera. They were attracted by the its "unique, colorful, and sometimes blurry" images. After lomographic society international set up, the LOMO-LC A seperated from LOMO company and formed a new brand called LOMOGRAPHY. This brand is inspired from antitechnology and designs different series of film camera, like Diana F+, La Sardina, Konstruktor and so on. In the present stage, lomography develops to the experience economy and after independence it transfer the OEM to OBM. CLIENT: From military to public VALUE

BUSINESS MODEL

After the seperation of LOMO LC-A, the LOMOGRAPHY became the experience economy, it focuses on the unique experience of photographer. The camera is not only for spy to attain the evidences but also for the normal people to record their daily life. Images contain the personal emotion by using different camera to have different effect. That is the reason why LOMOGRAPHY focus on the brand experience of their customers. Also the qualities of business are changed into product-service mix, the product service system. Let us see the business model. The value proposition is lomo camera and lomo film. Besides the long history LOMO-LC A and LOMO LC-A+, the lomography has purchased the Diana F+ from the Great Wall film company, redesign the simple one called La Sardina for the beginners and developed Konstruktor for the customers to build the camera by itself. The new company develops some special lomo films like LOMOCHROME PURPLE FILM and what the film they sell can be used in all 35MM, 120MM and different size of camera no matter it is lomo camera or not.The key activities for the LOMOGRAPHY is the online community, the global lomophotographer can join the website and share the images. The key resources is new type of film and advertisement to attract more customers in the digital cameras market. The lomophotographers with the retail shops are more like partners, developing films there and share feelings in the shop. The distribution center mainly about the staffs and online shopping.

Economic paradigm Business People

Like the most of the business, Lomography also had the period from the industry economy to experience economy. In the first stage, the LOMO company was belong to the industry econmy. In this type of economy, the company focus on product function. In the begining they produce for the seceret function for spy so the camera should be produced as smaller as possible and also the images of the camera had the high quality. LOMO company focus on the products quality and tried to design and develop different kinds of camera for dynamic use or still use. Their value proposition was according to the commodities. Camera designers would have no chance to asked the feedback of these users, the spy or the soldiers.

STAKERHOLDERS MAP Value in the first stage was created by manufacturing cameras, lens or other optics products. It was original equipment manufacture. And when they began to design and produce other kinds of lomocameras, it was original design manufacture. Now, the lomography has run the original brand management. The Lomographic Society International runs Lomography Gallery Stores and so-called "embassies" dedicated to the growth, support and public exposure of analogue photography. Customers interact through social events such as exhibits [2] and workshops . Lomography tries to improve to orignal strategy management. But the biggest chanllenge is how to survive and expanded in the digital camera dominant market.

That is all stakerholders involve the creation and the core value proposition is in the lomograher, staffs or owner of gallery and developers.

ODM OEM Value, Risk and Market POWER

Follow the stakerholders map to find who involved in this creation. The low power and low interest are the people who provide the space for the brand to have the retail shop. Also the online community should be supported by the programmer. These group of people do not creat value for the lomography. The low power but high interest are the main people who consumer the value, like the lomophotographer. They buy the fresh lomo camera or film to fulfill unique, vintage lifestyle. Before the customer, there should be the supplier to provide the materials. The suppliers especially the films providers would survive together with the film cameras. These group is like value survive group. The market is curel and especially for film camera in the digital market. Yes, it is unique but how to keep the feeling of freshness to keep the present and potential customer to creat more value ďź&#x; The question may be answerd by the high power and high interest group. The role of this group is more like scientists. They have the responsibility to create fresh film camera and lead the fashion to break the dominant market. Recent years, lomograhy publish a new series of instant camera, LOMO'Instant (Square / Wide / Automat). In the interview, the owner of Hong Kong Lomograhy Gallery Store told me because more and more people love to have the film pictues instantly and this kind of instant camera can use FUJI films, which provide the option to customers and broden the market. The last stakerholder group is the high power but low interest one. They are responsibel for the business system run but may be not interested for the core of lomography. The most point they focus on is the profits and market development.

It was a nervous time for film photography when digital cameras took off in the 1990s, and seemed set to take over entirely.
