WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Motion in Photography
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Motion photography is about showing movement. Adding a slight blur of the action to your shot helps tell a story. This storytelling element makes the images a little less static and unexpected. Images with movement tend to be eye-catching; they drag the viewer into the frame and force the eye to glide along with the moving elements.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will practice different techniques and gradually show your success!
For Part 1 of assignment...
The Assignment...
The Assignment...
For this assignment, you will photograph moving objects in three different ways.
You will need a partner!!!
You will photograph MOVING subjects in 3 different ways!
YOU choose what you are shooting! Do NOT just copy these ideas! Be creative!
YOU choose what you are shooting! Do NOT just copy these ideas! Be creative!
STOP ACTION
Try using a stop action SHUTTER SPEED of 1/1000+ of a second.
Try an F stop of 6 or 7
The idea is to FREEZE the moving object!
You will name the file:
First Initial Last Initial FREEZE.psd
Click the Right Cross Key
Let's change the Drive mode to HIGH SPEED CONTINUOUS
This means you click the button and it fires multiple times!
Shoot your Stop action in the bright sun. This allows you to use fast shutter speeds.
BLUR (Panning Photography)
Start with a shutter speed of 1/100
As your tracking gets better, start lowering the shutter speed...
Try getting to a shutter speed of 1/30 while “panning” your subject.
Follow along at the same speed as your subject!
For this shot, try using a high/greater depth of field (higher setting)
You will name the file:
First Initial Last Initial PAN.psd
Click the Right Cross Key
Let's change the Drive mode to HIGH SPEED CONTINUOUS
This means you click the button and it fires multiple times!
Shoot your blur shot in the shade or at least subdued lighting.
MOTION BLUR (Long Shutter Speed) Tripod needed!
With a tripod- try a SHUTTER SPEED at 1/4 -1/2 of a second.
Subject will stay still but something else in shot will move. For this the camera needs to be VERY still!
You will name the file:
First Initial Last Initial BLUR.psd
Click the Right Cross Key
Let's change the Drive mode to SINGLE SHOOTING
This means you click the button one shot at a time!
Using a tripod!
