Movement and
Time

With my second stage I want to experiment with using a range of shutter speeds to capture a moving object and how they differ with the effect i want to create. After my first shoot i have decided to make my subject matter a tram as it is a quickly moving object which passes by frequently and have many different designs and layouts to make my images more exciting. Within my developments i want to experiment with colour and how that changes the way we perceive an image, then furthering this into illustrations to challenge the way my viewer sees the tram.

Settings:

Within this shoot i wanted to use and experiment with a range of settings, not just my shutter speed to see how the lighting and colour effects the motion blur. Some of these images were taken using the Aperture Priority setting, however the majority have been taken fully on manual.

Aperture: f/18
Shutter speed: 1/50

Hue Experimentation

Adobe Illustrator Developments:

Focusing on lines and the future movement of the tram. This also shows how my composition is split into different sections.

Illustrator Drawings:

I want to challenge the way my viewer perceives the tram by creating it in a new form. This takes away its movement and motion blur allowing my viewer to focus on the different sections of the tram and how it is made up of different lines that intersect each other.

Edits:

Using the different numbers on the side of the tram, I wanted to take a more graphical approach to my work merging my experiments with colour with my tram images. Using the blending options and hue and saturation tool on photoshop I merged these ideas together experimenting with different layouts.

In this development I wanted to experiment with photoshop and see what effects I could use that suited my images.
