Can blurred motion in a photograph reveal something about the subject? How? Why?
Respond in a paragraph. Include an explanation of the camera settings used to create this photo. What settings affect motion?
Shutter Speed controls…• Amount of TIME you allow LIGHT to hit the
camera sensor • Light passes through the aperture to the
sensor.
Shutter Speed Controls Motion and Blur of Moving Object
Fast Shutter FREEZES moving objects
Slow Speed has blur of moving object
Why motion?What can it do to in a photo?

Costumed Motion Shoot
Explore camera controls to create photos with motion as the dominant element. Create a blurred image or capture a split section, frozen in time.
Communicate mood and emotion.
Explore abstraction and texture through observational photography.
Why Costume? What kind? What??
How does it become dramatic?
18 photos of Costumed Motion
• The motion must be DYNAMIC and DRAMATIC. • The subject, person, must be costumed in a
CREATIVE way.• COMPOSITION and EXPOSURE are STILL
IMPORTANT. Don’t Forget this.
Process:
• Find an interesting setting and frame a good composition.
• Plan how your subject will move through the composition. Have the subject move through the setting a few times while you look through the viewfinder.
Process:
• Find the best place for the subject to be in motion when the exposure is made.
• Experiment! Don’t be afraid to make mistakes and take changes. DON’T DELETE photographs from your camera until you see them on the computer. Blurry can be cool!
Experiment with:
• Still camera and moving subject• Moving subject and still camera (tripod,
bracing, or self timer)• Using your flash, and moving your camera at
the same time – will give you a unique effect. • Zooming and in and out while you’re taking
your shot (DSL only)• Change your ISO Setting to 80-200 (even with
automatic camera).
Experiment with:
• Shoot in evening, night, low light, indoors. • Camera Settings: Fireworks, Night Landscape,
Museum, Sports • Camera Movement: Start with camera at arms
length and pull into to chest when firing shutter. Turn camera in circle. Panning- moving your camera along with the moving subject.
• Night photos with moving flashlights, headlights. “Paint with light.”

How the Camera Captures Motion Group Work
• How do camera settings affect moving subjects?
• What do I need to know to take powerful images of movement?
• How can I use movement to create mood and drama in a photo?
Groups of 2 or 3 will research an aspect of Motion and present their findings to the class
• Subject Movement• Camera Movement• Panning• Shutter Speed (use SLR) and ISO
Questions to Answer and Group Tasks:• Define your topic in an easy to understand
way• Explain how it affects your photographs• Explain how you do this with your camera• Find 3-5 photo examples of topic on the
internet• As group, take 3 photos illustrating topic with
camera, upload and save
Powerpoint of your research includes:• Topic definition and how it affects photos• How you would do this with a camera • 3-5 internet image examples• 3 photo examples from your group
Groups will present to class next day.
