Motion Final





























 
     

               

 















During this assignment I've learned a lot about how I take photos and how motion works. I learned that I need to improve the way I take my photographs. I need to constantly remember about composition, which is something that some of these photos lack. I also need to remember to make my photos more dynamic. The photos that are here and also aren't on this blog tend to be very similar. The actual motion part was harder than I thought it was going to be. The zooming part and panning were very hard for me to take. The panning hard for me because I could never get the subject fully in focus. I'm not sure if it was the technique that was hard or just trying to make the photo look half decent. I liked the idea of working with a group because we can bounce ideas off of one another or try all of our ideas. Overall I don't think the assignment was terrible, it was a little hard. but fun too. 
  Doing chrono was really fun. It was a great learning experience in photoshop. It was frustrating at times, but it was really cool to see how it developed.

Motion Shooting Assignment contact sheet


Motion Planning

Blurred Subject -

To have someone jumping
Or having someone throw something.
That way we can have a clear background and something blurry in the photo too.

Panning -

Have someone running or walking, while the person with the camera follows through their motion.

Freeze Motion -

Dropping something in water
Or having a person do a movement.

Zooming -

Zoom in on an object with words, like a sign.
Or take a picture of a tree/leaf

Writing With Light -

Try to make a cloud under a person, for they look like they are floating.
Or a tic tac toe board.

Writing with Light Group Experiment

Emily Kalinay, Kacey Ford, and Caroline Fulton














































   I think that this type of photography is so cool! The idea of making several random things with a phone light, glow sticks and capturing it on a camera, is amazing. I love this writing with light type of photography. Next time I do this though, I will put my shutter speed to an even higher speed if I do glow sticks again, because more color will show up in the photo. At least thats what I think will happen. I also would make sure the background is dark.
