The Way He Photographed He’s Photos.

edweard muybridge

here’s my theory

edweard muybridge

was actually a horse

and he made a deal with the other horses that if

that if

when he took that picture of one of them w/ all their feet in the air

that he would give that horse all his horse money

but he never did

and he still gained world wide film fame from it

he was never a horse again

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.

slow shutter speed

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

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.

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.
