Motion Study

Motion Study





















the water droplet pictures and the flag are examples of the stop-action photos. Robert poured water out of a water bottle and I tried to take a picture of the droplets. The picture of Allie is the blur picture where her hair and arm were moving when I took the picture and she was blurred. The pictures of Kevin and Robert jumping were also the stop-action pictures where they were moving and I tried to make the picture as clear as i could.

Motion Study

STUDENTS: Your assignment this week is to compose and shoot a series of photos that emphasize two different motion techniques. The first will use Stop Action (or Freeze Action). Look to this week's reading assignment for camera settings and technique. Take a series of photos and post the best two photos. "Best" includes exposure and composition! When you compose these first photos be sure to fill your frame with your subject. The second technique is known as Motion Blur or Panning. Again, look to this week's reading assignment for camera settings and technique. Take a series of photos and post the best two photos. To ensure correct exposure, bracket this assignment--Take a series of photos of the same subject in the same position--the series will only differ in the exposure compensation (-1, 0, +1). Take one photo slightly underexposed, one at the camera's suggested exposure, and one over exposed. Be sure to label these two posts "Stop Action" and "Panning" respectively. Following are a few examples. Also, be sure to view the previously posted video tutorials on Stop Action and Panning. Just look on the side bar of the Blog's home page for Videos.
