Eadweard Muybridge Recreation

Muybridge Recreation




In preparation for the photographs I adjusted the focal length to 100 mm and the shutter speed of 1/2500, the fast shutter speed enabled me to get a crisp image. However, because of the fast speed it let in less light making the image slightly more darker. So I new thatwouldn’t be able to go up to 3000th of a second. As the photo wouldn’t be visible.
The camera I used shot at three frames per second which was fine as there wasn’t to much of a gap. What I like about the image is that it has similarities to Muybridge's showing the different stages of the body  as they run and also the black and white effect. By  adding  black and white to the photo gives the image a old look which looks cool to me it also brings out the black in the dogs fur and therefore makes it stand out from the bland background.

Creating a Hyper lapse

Hyper Lapses What is a hyperlapse? A hyper lapse is when you manually move the camera a short distance between each shot until you have enough images to create a short video. After you have taken your photos you can go onto a gif creator which you can find on the internet and sync your photos together. My first attempt at creating a hyperlapse was at college. We took a series of photos of myself and Heather, every time a photo was taken we moved to a different step.  We took around 35 photos and this was the result. However, I wanted to take this further and I decided to shoot a second hyperlapse, but this time I was going to photograph a house with it's Christmas lights. I thought the subject would make interesting and striking photographs, as the glare of the lights would change as I move parallel to the house on the other side of the road.  One thing that I had to bare in mind was that I needed a point of focus so that when I move to take the next shot I would kno

Erhan Asik

Erhan Asik is a Turkish photographer who I came across whilst looking for ideas to do with water based long exposures. After looking through his work i figured that some of his photographs could be recreated. not by taking the photo in the exact same place. but by using the same concept of filters and the use of a tripod. this is the photo that inspired me to go out and capture my own long exposures. I like the way that the water looks in this photo. It can come across as looking like clouds or mist. the way Asik has created this is by using something called an neutral density filter which allows the cameras shutter to be open for longer without the photo becoming over exposed. Here is my recreation. the shutter speed for this particular photo was set to 10 seconds which allowed the water to blur and create the misty effect that i wanted to achieve. I  made sure that the orientation of the camera was set to portrait so that i could include the full length of the water as i

Narrative Sequence

This is my attempt at a narrative sequence. To create this sequence I used a scrabble board that showed my name as it moved around the board.  I did this as it resembles different situations throughout your life and any problems that you may face. This can be shown by having the letters move upwards and downwards and flip back to front.  This represents the highs and lows you may experience. To create this sequence I used a tripod as this ensured that the camera remained still. I also chose to tilt the camera downwards as this created a birds eye view, And due to this choice of composition. I had to use a wide focal length of 10mm in order to obtain the whole of the board. The frame speed for the narrative sequence is set to 0.1 so that there was a smooth transition between the frames. If the speed was set at the standard rate of 0.05 the sequence would become too fast and the viewer would be unable to read the words spelt. However, if the frame speed was any slower than 0.1, the
