Amazing!!!

Me and my friends setup the university’s studio and each of us took turn to take photographs, each of us had a role to take for example: photographer, director, assistance ...ect. 

I framed my model Dafnne and I wanted to capture of frozen motion, by using fast shutter speed. 

#Contactsheets

I set my camera up on a tripod with a wide angle lens. There is vignetting around the edge of the shot as the camera that I used has a full frame sensor and the lens is not compatible with this. I could have cropped this to give me the same size image that I would have got from a cropped sensor camera, however I like the way it looks. It reminds me of an eye, being circular and this fits with the idea of us seeing more than just a single image that a photographs captures.

I good place to experiment with the light trails idea was the fun fair. The lights on the rides are set on fixed paths which creates some really interesting shapes. I was aiming to make it clear that these were rides but use the trails to show the movement of the ride.

fast shutter speed

For this shoot I had assistance to help me with poring the food colours inside to the wine glass and my other friend help me to mix the water to get that waves that I have in some of my photographs.  I experimented with different food colours as well.

I have planned to take some photographs  in a busy public place and I decided visitto Kingston station. I wanted also to experiment with different lights, exposures and timing.

*I used long exposure/timings

* Use a small aperture, for example f22 

* Experiment with multiple separate exposures

* In some of the photos i change the ISO 

.*I used available lights instead of flashes

I used long exposure and available lights for this shoot and i wanted to capture lots of different movements as much as possible.

Light trail photography

A technique sometimes used for showing movement in photography is light trails. This is where the shutter is left open for a relatively long period of time and a light is moved around within the frame of the photograph. Where the light has been a trail is left, this is sometimes called light painting. It is a technique that I have used before and have utilised in other projects. It is this that have given me the interest to explore it further and combine it with this project for showing movement.

cool

I didn’t think I could love Edward Muybridge more! And now Mark Rosen and Wendy Marvel took his images and created motorized flip books. There’s a kickstarter campaign so eventually everyone can have their own crank flip book.
