Exercise 3- Ten in One
Instructions
You will take at least 10 unique and/or abstract photographs of a subject. The smaller the subject, the more challenging this can be. This is the type of photography that took David Hockney's work to a new level. You will then stitch the photos together on a digital platform. Photoshop is best for this, but you can use other apps. Get creative when you piece your ten photos together. Try to place them in strange, clever ways. Selecting what to keep from each of the photos will be the hardest part. Make sure you are planning this from the beginning, maybe draw a sketch of what you want the end product to look like.
What to turn in?
One, single image file (it should be a composition of the 10 photos you have taken made into a creative collage). It should be turned in to NEO.
Ideas
Quick release shutter speeds allow photographers to create an exciting sequence of photographs. Ray Demski captures athletes in motion (below with the diver): digitally combining a series of high speed photographs in a single composite work.
Combining multiple exposures within one photograph makes it possible to create the illusion that there are many identical elements within a composition.
The image of the sunrises (above) is from a series called ‘Time is a Dimension’, and shows digital slices of photographs taken over several hours at one location. The shots below show a seaside in sunrise, with the images organized together in a way that shows the changing light conditions.
