Movement Work Diary

How I Made These Images
To capture the images for movemt I used a range of different camera settings to fit the situation. The shutter speed however was usally left at 1 second to allow for a movment to take place and for the camera to pic up and capture this movement. The Subejct matter of movement was definitly the most difficult of projects so far for many reasons. One of the reasons being that the cameras we were originally provided were difficult to use in terms of adjusting the settings. However, as time progressed, It became easier to control.

Critical Evaluation
Despite the fact that this image shows a clear movement, I don't like it because of the amount of different things within the image. Also, all of the image is blurred, even though it shows movement, I don't like. I believe it looks unprofessional.






Progress

All of these images were minimally edited and simple editing tools were used.

This first image was edited simply using only the black and white conversion technique. I changed the colours to black and white and used coloured sliders to alter the brightness of certain coloured tones within the image. Using these sliders, I was able to manually edit the coloured shades to fit the subject of the image and also the connotations.

This next image was also very simply edited. The image was rotated slightly so that the landscape was more level with the frame. I then simple turned the image black and white to finish off.

This next image is one of my favourites. This was the only image that required a lot of editing to achieve within this project.

To begin I adjusted the saturation of the image so that the colours are brighter and more vibrant. I rotated the original image so that it was portrait, I then saved this image alone so that I could open the same image twice to create one single image out of two images. When I mirrored two of the same images I got a single image that looks, to me, like a door of some sort. The overall effect of the final image is quite magical.

This final image is my least favourite out of the Top 4.

As there was a gate in the frame which I didn't like, I had to try my best to crop it out whilst still keeping the light from the sun in frame. After I achieved this as best I could, I simply changed the saturation by heightening it to make the colours brighter.
