Photographing Motion by Khoa

December 04, 2018 khoa 0 Comments



This photograph is categorized as stop to blur motion, the particularly interesting concept of this is, you have a focal point and the audience should see that the most, for instance this was the volleyball it was blurred  but everything in the background was not. To capture this, often the object you want blurred should be in a action whether its riding a bike, throwing a ball, any physical movement and a still background can show this. The optimal settings were fairly similar to the first one , a high ISO helps in this situation to reduce the amount of light yet, being able to make fast pictures.





This assignment was all about motion and how we can manipulate it, the task was to take pictures       accordingly by stopping motion, exaggerating motion, blur to show motion, and panning. At the start figuring the ideal settings were complex but after many trials and errors it was simpler. The image     shown above is caught by stopping motion as I jumped in the air and set the ball the camera was          taken at the a time I was above ground, to portray that I jumped. The reason this would not be             considered a exaggerated motion is because the action was not overly excessive or over the top.
This in my opinion would be an easier shot to get then some of the others do to the basic settings  available it is optimal to shoot at a high ISO we found it worked best.




This photo was Chris, running with a basketball to make a lay up, it was a panning shot, as the approached and started moving the photographer held his shoot button, and followed the model.
This allow the figure to be in complete focus while having a blurred background showing a running movement. To create this, we found that the shutter speed worked best just below the middle point and the others settings kept lower to reduce the amount of light given.

The last photo, as you can see is me crazily whipping hula hoops, this is an exaggerated motion the model over does an action to show immense blur and motion I grabbed 4 hula hoops each with different colour and twirled them wildly in my hands. The camera does not much have affect on this as comparison to panning, but the model is the key aspect he/she should create an action with something that may stand out and do it to the point that it looks weird. The suitable  settings for this would be a high ISO,a higher f-stop, and a higher shutter speed.
