This picture shows movement. This is a picture of me and my 2 friends running at each other to show friendship. It shows they have a strong bond and will always be together.

Light Painting Diptych

The exit sign used the glowing light to produce a design. The bottom left image is created using the light of glowsticks. I chose these photos because they visibly look very good with each other and I especially thought the bottom one was very cool and seemed similar to the reference photos I looked at before beginning the project.

The bottom image is a camera panning motion blur photograph of Cassie running. The top image is a subject moving motion blur photograph of Merlin moving her head. I chose these photographs since they were my better motion blur photos. They relate to each other since they both are examples of 2 of the 3 kinds of motion blur.

My photos are placed the way they are because the two people in the picture look like they are running down to each other through the hallway.

This picture shows a star and a butterfly. These photos are placed like this because I always used to think how cool butterflies were. That is why the star is incorporated.

The bottom right picture when me and Liv were taking them made us think that her head is somewhat a mushroom shape. The way The picture was caught her hair in motion really gave us that idea. The picture on the top left is also liv jumping from the auditorium stairs. Liv loved to be active when she was little and jumping in puddles of rain was her favorite activity. This picture gave her nostalgia and sent her back in time for just a short period of time.

The photos I picked were of Cassie. The picture on the left Cassie has a bunch of glowsticks in her hand and she is just moving them as fast as she can. The picture on the right is Cassie with warm colored glow sticks in one hand and cool colors on the other hand and she is spinning and moving them down as she spins. Both of these pictures relate because they both have the representation of color just that one picture has more color than the other one.

The picture on the right represents a star, I chose to do this because stars for me are something special. This is a double layered star which gives it that extra pop. The picture on the left gave me a sense of angel wings. I think that these wings and the colors we chose were something that could fit my vision I had. These pictures relate to each other because they both involve glow sticks and they both involve some sort of movement to get the picture.

For the photo on the left we had thrown up the glow sticks and let them fall while following them with the camera to capture the movement of the light, which had ended up making the image almost look like some kind of sprinkles. The photo on the right we played around with moving the glow sticks in a circular motion slowly moving them farther from the camera while making the circle bigger which made the picture somewhat look like an iris.

For the first photo we kept the camera and background very still while I moved quickly left and right to create a look of my hair wrapped around my head. In the second photo we had the entire background capture movement as I started with my camera from the left and rapidly moved to the right to create a blurry movement.

My light painting overlaps the two images of green and blue lights. The chaos between the two different colors represents the uncertainty in my life at the moment.

I used my phone camera to make two halves of a heart and put them together. I chose these photos because I liked how it looked.

These photos are of Merlin in the auditorium. I chose these photos because they gave off a creepy vibe. They relate to each other because they distort her and her face.

My photos are overlapped the way they are to show the two places that I spend the time the most in one picture.

The photos I picked are of myself that Chole took. The picture on the left is of myself doing some type of bear crawl towards the photographer. The picture on the right the photographer was stayed still while I was walking. Both of these relate because they represent the moment happening.

This photo is heavily edited, and while the motion is in the background, that was intentional to create a feeling of instability. The focus on Quinn being still was so that someone would be drawn in. For why I put these 2 pictures together, it was because I felt like I would be doing something fun and creative while also being "dark" and setting up a crime scene-esque photo

These are pictures of a volley ball getting thrown in the air and falling. I like this picture because it captures a still picture of the ball in the air.

2024-10-24 14:13:44 UTC

These are pictures of birds that i chased outside. I had to run up to them and make them fly away to capture motion blur.

The left image is of an old telephone and the right photo is of a basketball net. For the phone on the left, I held the dial, released, and snapped the picture capturing the essense expressed in the photo. For the one on the right I had to have a street lamp to illuminate the net at night to create the right vibe. I chose these pictures because i thought they were really cool and captured the vibe i was aiming for. They relate to each other because i feel like they both kind of drag out the colors and exaggerate them aswell.

To capture the photo on the left I had someone spin around in a circle with the glow sticks in thier hands. On the right I had someone wave the glow sticks back and forth. I chose these photos because I really liked how the colors show in either one of these photos. These photos relate because I feel like they both represent color in a cool way.

2024-10-24 14:29:54 UTC

I just pasted these 2 light blur photos together because I think they interacted well with each other and provided a feeling of fun. I also did slight edits so there would be more to look at in the photo, without making anything too distracting or overwhelming

The top right is a picture of the stars, I took the one in the middle and added the rest in Photoshop. And I edited the moon one I took to make in straighter. I did this one inspired by the night time.

I decided the theme as nostalgia as a kid. The ring around the rosy, as with no worries as a kid. And one on the bike riding with no worries.

The two pictures relate because I had tried to use my flashlight to create images. The left one is me trying my name and the one on on the right is a doodle that I thought looked cool.

These motion blurs are cars, it was what popped in my mind right away. The right one is my friends car(not speeding) and the one on the right is just the highway but I though this truck looked better then other photos.

The left image is one of a car passing me by on a road, the second image is one of Julian shaking his head like a maniac. I chose these pictures together not because both of them include a subject moving.

The smaller image is the 2 glow sticks spinning around in circles, the bigger image is basically the same photo but I instead decided to wiggle the camera around to see the effect. The reason I paired these 2 together is because I wanted to show how different the photo could be just through a little bit of movement. Plus the big one looks like Aurora Borealis.
