I Want To Do Something Like This For My Project.
I want to do something like this for my project.
An artist with an interesting take on movement is David Hockney. Through the 70’s and 80’s Hockney produced a series of works that he called ‘joiners’. These were multiple photographs, often Polaroid’s, arranged in a collage. The earliest pieces in this series of works were often portraits but as the subjects moved, as would the framing of the photograph. This produced a short story of the way that the photographer perceived the subject over a period of time (all be it short) as appose to a single moment which is a restriction of a single photographic image.

Yesterday afternoon me and my friends set up a still life studio, for photographing commercial style and the ideas was to capturing slow motions, freezing motions by using the objects we brought, also my tutor left some objects for us too use. For example: #eggs, #wine glass, #food colours, #balloons, #bubblegum. ..ect.

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.

slow shutter speed
For this photographs I used the same mattered to take it, except this time i also used fire cracker.
#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.

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.
