ART626 Week 2

I took some pictures over this week and I just shot more movement of the body.  The images I have here aren't edited, but are straight from the camera.  I had the model move towards the camera at different times and then I would move the camera at times when the model was moving also.  I hadn't really experimented with this technique yet, and so I thought I would try it out and see how I liked it. I really liked it and I am going to continue to explore the different movements that I can move the camera while the body is moving as well. I like how it is a little more abstract and you can't tell exactly what is moving in the image at first.

ART626 Week 1

    I am going to continue off of my project that I did last semester in ART626 which was about the movement of the body.  The pictures that I created were in black and white and were shot with my DSLR.  I had my model wear white clothing and then I shot her movement in front of a black backdrop and then later on I ended up painting her skin white to show the textures of the body in the photograph as well.



My inspiration for the work that I am doing came from seeing Harold E. Edgerton's photographs of movement that he did.  He did a lot of things with movement and this photograph below is where I got a lot of my inspiration from.  I also looked at Muybridge's horse movement studies as well and got to see another way to show movement through motion.
