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.

Ideas for 3D project (Unit 6)

3D Research At the start of any project, its always a good idea to have a look around and try and find some ideas and techniques to use. because the project is on 3D. i began my search on pintrest and simply typed "3D". there were hundreds of photos, collages and physical pieces to chose from. i started with the most recognised style of 3D. anaglyphic photography. anaglyphic is basically the red and blue lines that appear on the edges of the objects being photographed. This is an example of an anaglyphic photograpgh. the photo shows a model in the right third of the image. the photo is being shot in an architectural area. from looking at many photos. alot of the anaglyphic shots are taken in areas with buildings or structures, this is because of the straight edges which makes the 3D effect stand out.  this is an analogue example for my 3D project. this is called lenticular printing. this technique is all about perspective. as you can see depending on wha...

Anaglyphic effect in photoshop

After thinking about my options i came to the conclusion that i wanted to create an image with a 3D effect for my final piece.  Creating an anaglyphic photo is actually very simple, it only consists of 3 steps. Step 1)  The first step is to take the image you want to develop and drag it down to the tab which looks like a post it note. this will duplicate the layer so that you have a foreground and a background layer.  Step 2) Once you have your two layers you want to double click on the layer that is at the top. the photo on the left shows what it looks like. what you want to do is look for the three ticked boxes labelled "R" "G" and "B". you want to untick the "R" box. then press ok and you will return back to your photo ready for the final step. Step 3) before we do the final step you must make sure that you have clicked on the top layer before you adjust the layers as if the bottom later is selected you wont be...

Frank Machalowski | Chaos

Frank Michalowski Frank Machalowski is a German freelance photographer who I came across whilst searching for photos that show chaos. After further research i came across a series of photos called "monster".  The photos look really moody to me as they are black and white and have high contrast. The photos include the rush of people. which creates a blur. The way he creates these photos is by using a slow shutter speed of 5 seconds to get the blur. To recreate these photos I am going to go to London and shoot long exposures of people walking past. The equipment I will use will be my camera a tripod a shutter release and a ND filter. The photograph on the left is interesting as it is symmetrical and also has leading lines that draw your eyes to the top third of the picture. I like the different shades of black and grey that the rush of people create. This reminds me of a pencil smudge. This is a photo I took in the style of frank Machalowski. The locati...
