JadaW Photography Unit 7

This is my first attempt sat animating a photo and it was successful, to improve i would repeat the process a few more times. To start we were given a photo that we then imported into After effects. And then separated and made layers for each part of the photo.  ( the plane, the Shard, the sky). which we then moved slightly to make it seem as if the sky was moving along with the plane. which I moved diagonally across the page. I also moved the shard an inch as well to make it more realistic. I had to make sure that i have traced around the plane properly otherwise you would be able to she parts of the sky around the plane when it went through the Shard. I also edited the sky to make it warmer and have more vivid colours. The hardest part was trying to judge how far and fast everything should move so it didn't look unrealistic.

I made the gifs using photos of dancers at the college, this was for the sequence of movement project. using Photoshop i was able to make the gifs using a tool called a timeline, exactly how i did in the Adobe gif tutorial.

To start I downloaded images given to us on the tutorial. I then had to make a time line. After i had to convert the layers in to animation frames. This is we preview the animation and how to make it go in reverse. To make it an Effective gif i set it to loop forever otherwise it would run once and stop.

I have placed my pinhole on a drain pipe on the college campus facing a carpark, on the Hawthorn block.  I put it up on the 8th of Janurary and will be taken down on the 8th of March. Because the drain pipe was so thick we had to tie two cable ties together for it to fit nicely and not move during the winter weather.  i mad the camera out of a monster can. This was my method. Step 1: cut the top off of the can using a tin opener. Step 2: cut out 3 circles from felt and card all 3 different sizes. Step 3: Using a tripod hot glue the biggest card and felt circles together.  Step 4: pierce a hole in the can using an acupuncture needle.  Step 5: place the felt part of the circle into the top of the can. step 6: use duct tape to secure the card and felt remebering to not tape up the hole.

He was aked in an interview with  Lomography What is it about Pinhole Photography which most fascinates you? and he answered,  "There is no view finder, it clashes art and science after a 150 year schism, a lot happens in pre-visualising the...

Muybridge was a English photographer born  9 April 1830 – 8 May 1904,  important for his pioneering work in the sequences of movement.  In 1872 a  race-horse owner, hired Muybridge to take some photographs of his horses to reveal whether or not all four feet of a horse were off the ground at the same time while Galloping. Muybridge began experimenting with 12 cameras taken along the track whilst the horse was in gallop. His first attempt seemed to prove that he was wrong and that at no point does a horse have all four feet off the ground but he didn't have it perfected so still unsure he continued trying. He eventually set up trip wires that when the horse would trip one the camera would go off, which resulted in finding out that all four of the horses feet were off the track twice.
