Blurring Can Be Used To Create The Illusion Of Motion. Here The Motion That The Dancer Took Is Clear...

You see through me / Matt Martin

In this photographs I wanted to capture frozen motions and ast shutter speed in the same way as in my other experiment.

I haven’t show my contact sheets because I edit my photographs dawn to this. I have used three soft box lights. I was the photographe. This photograph is the one I mostly like because everything is in the right place the way she flipped her hair and where it’s been placed.

The Art of Movement

It is often a photographer’s goal to portray, imply or represent something within a photograph that can be difficult to show in a still image. This is sometimes telling a story or capturing emotion or atmosphere. I am interested in the idea of capturing movement within a still image.

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.

The way Edward Muybridge photographed.

My experiments.

For our purposes an image like this there are lot’s of visible moving elements, the students walking by and lot of additional detail. I experimented with using different exposure and timimg.
