PROJECT #3: INTENTIONAL MOTION BLUR, Revisited (Shutter Priority)


























DIRECTIONS.

1. Set camera to S (shutter priority) -or- Use the Slow Shutter app or shutter setting on your phone. 

2. Make 8+ well-intentioned deliberate images of intentional motion blur. 
*'Well-intentioned' means that you took time/care to consider interesting shutter speeds for your chosen subject, framed the composition of your photo well in relation to the motion blur, and then developed your photos with care and consideration in Photoshop/Lightroom

3. For at least FOUR of your subjects, photograph the subject that is moving TWICE, at different shutter speeds. We will create diptychs (like the above examples). The other images you make might be one-off motion blur images.

4. This is not a 'random photo' project. As such, the more planning you do the better. Complete this form as a planning step to get yourself organized for making these photos by Tuesday, October 4. 

  • Make a range of photos that show fast & slow shutter speeds in relation to your subject matter. 
  • Subject matter is your own choosing. 
RATIONALE.
To continue exploration and mastery of manipulating shutter speed in your camera. 

TOTAL PHOTOS
FOUR/4 one time motion blur photos
+
4 subjects, each photographed twice - equals EIGHT/8 photos
=
12 photos total

NOTE.
*Mind your ISO in relation to your shutter speed.
**Your total number of images will be 12 (since you are photographing four of your ideas twice, at different shutter speeds)
