Hans Eijkelboom Influence

I wanted to include his idea's of how he used himself to investigate the influence of appearance and clothing on the relationship between the individual and identity. He gradually changed into the relationship between identity and world view as he looked for a method to visualize how repeated daily observation and experiences form our world. To include his techniques and ideas I approached 8 other males to be present on my photography board. 

Motion Blur Developed

After finishing with the other motion blur images, I continued this editing onto my next images where I introduced colour. I decided to progress into long shot/medium shot for these images to capture how distant the male feels from the environment around him.

Motion Blur Photography

With these images I wanted to have elements of motion blur whilst keeping the main subject matter in focus. For these particular images I had no certain artist model influence as I used photoshop to create the blur effect.

At this point I wanted to experiment with the framing of images that I started at the top of panel one. To keep this idea going, I introduced a black background for the second half of my my first panel. The result worked quite well, and it created a systematic flow from the first images.

Next 3 images

Final images that will be present on the top of panel one.

Eaweard Muybridge Influence

Eadweard Muybridge

Eaweard Muybridge is known for his pioneering work on animal locomotion in 1877 and 1878, which used multiple cameras to capture motion in stop-action photographs, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion pictures the pre-dated the flexible perforated film strip used in cinematography.

First Attempt

This was my first attempt at recreating images using Muybridge's techniques. It was a rough copy and I wasn't too sure how to adjust each frame to be the same size on the same level. I need to research how to edit these images on photo-shop, to get the final product that I want.

Second Attempt

This was my next attempt at editing these images. I researched information on 'youtube' to get each frame equal, which worked relatively well. I also researched information with how to edit photos to look old/dated. Unfortunately this made the images less contrasted and rather plain. I'll go research different techniques to age the photos. 

Final Image

This is the final copy that i'll be using on my first panel. I've adjusted the contrast levels, yet used editing effects to keep the aged look. I increased the frame of the image to view the model's body fully.

Start of panel one

These are the first four images appearing on my 1st panel. I've decided to do this by the subject matter of a male model (Scott Cameron, who is wonderfully photogenic), a pair of sunglasses and frame work present in the background.

Ralph Gibson influence

I don't think that these images offer enough depth for the start of panel one. I might introduce them later in pane one. My next step is to research in depth motion blur photography techniques, including artist models Eaweard Muybridge and Eitenne-Jules Marey.
