This is my third shoot it was taken in a wooded area. For this shoot was attempting to create blur motion, and in that blur try to have a set of contrasting colours . I looked more into planning my shots and when to take them as I used towels as the source of my colours. The towels were awkwardly draped over my subject. Then as my subject slowly moved it created a blur, I did this with a long exposure and a small aperture. In the light conditions I had, I used a 10 stop filter to darken the picture so I was able to have a longer exposure and have more movement and blur.
The shoot worked well as in some cases it showed how my artist Bischoff, was able to create his pictures, as a lot of mine came out darker than they should have, although that would be to do with the 10 stop filter. So I may need to use a similar technique to my previous shoot, to edit a blighter background around the motion blur.
The pictures on the bottom row of the contact sheet are edited by brightening the picture using photoshop. Although the background is still darker than I wanted, but that is to do with the settings on the camera that I use. I will have to use a light to brighten up the colours so they are more vibrant that what i managed today.
There were a few pictures that worked well in this shoot. "IMG. 9997.jpeg" was one of the better ones where i captured the motion and the colours as my subject span around as he moved down the path creating a spinning top like look.
After a bit of experimenting in photoshop I was able to enhance colours in the pictures, by layering them up. This was hard due to the tint of the filter I used. I will need to address this issue when I do my fourth shoot.
For my next shoot I will use coloured paper instead of towels, This may work better as I recently discovered that my artist Bischoff used coloured paper attached to himself as he moved in the frame. I will use a light to be able to brighten up the subject and hopefully be able to get rid of the tint of the filter. This will hopefully improve my work. I also want to relate the place to the colours. This way I will be able to show the relationships we have with the places through colours.
