Work Diary- Movement

Evaluation
The topic of tad ays lesson was movement which was a topic completely different to what we had done before in the sense that all previous topics were of still objects. Also, we had no clear idea of what the photo would be like because it was the first topic where it showed the difference in our eyes and the camera. Firstly we conducted a bit of research on movement photography on the internet where it was quite obvious what the moving object was- there was like a trail of light. Having some idea how photographs portrayed movement we then had to change the settings on the camera to allow it to have a slow shutter speed to enable it to capture movement. When taking photos of movement, it had to be in quite dark places to allow the movement to be quite obvious. 

The photograph above is one of the ones I edited. It is of people moving in a dark corridor; it shows movement because of the blurred areas around the bodies. The light of the corridor allows there to be a sense of distance created and also helps to emphasise the movement in the image.

This photo has captured movement in a different way to the other ones; the movement is a downwards motion in a lift. The movement is conveyed in the sense of the blurred background and the depth created by the metal frame. Also, the difference in light across the image helps portray movement.

Progression
I think i would definitely like to explore this topic further focusing largely on the movement of fast moving objects like cars and bikes moving along to see how the movement is captured differently to the more slower moving objects.
