Q Instructions Assignment 3: Part 2: Motion (45 pts) • Turn in 2 photos using panning. • Turn in 3 photos with frozen motion (using a fast shutter speed). • Turn in 3 photos with blurred motion (using a slow shutter speed). Tip: Easiest is to have a friend ride a bike around or throw a ball. However, try to be more creative! Think of other moving subjects that you can photograph. Water, smoke, sports games, someone flipping pizza dough in the air, someone throwing confetti, a kite, a twirling umbrella, etc. Try to conceptualize the movement. Example of a "Panning" style photograph. ISO 160, Shutter Speed 1/30. Photo Credit: Prof. Ding Ren More Tips: Most cameras offer different shutter speeds. The shutter speed you choose will be especially important when shooting moving subjects if you want to freeze motion. • In daylight, choose or set up a moving subject. One that moves at the same speed in all your exposures will be easiest. This can be a friend, a remote control car, someone throwing a ball, etc. • Set you camera to Auto ISO or if you are more advanced, change your ISO based on the lighting situations • chose the shutter priority program mode (known as Tv or S). • For point and shoot digital cameras try using different shooting modes such as "sports" and "landscape." • Set your shutter speed to 1/60 or 1/30 and notice the aperture (it will have to be close to a middle setting). Focus and shoot several frames of your moving subject to create a panned shot. This requires you to follow your subject with your camera in a steady motion. Those with point and shoot cameras may practice on fast moving subjects. • Change the shutter speed to a fast shutter speed, such as 1/250 to 1/1000, and notice the aperture has to be wider open than before. This will freeze the motion of a fast moving subject. • Change the shutter speed to a slow speed, such as 1/15 or 1/8, and notice the aperture has to be open to a much smaller size than before. You might want to brace your camera firmly against something steady or use a tripod when shooting at these slow shutter speeds. This will create streaks of light, or streaks of water and show slow motion. • Experiment with different moving subjects and different shutter speeds.
