Sushant's Digital Photo

 

  1. What was your overall concept and did you succeed in crafting the cinemagraph the way you intended? - My overall concept is a person drinking water, frozen in time. I was able to recreate what I imagined. 2. What do you like about your project? - I like how it appears as if the world is frozen despite the flowing movement of the water in the cinemagraph. 3. What would you have done differently when creating your cinemagraph? - I would have had the subject stand in a different position or angle so there would be no overlapping shadows to work with while editing. 4. What would have made this project easier to understand or create? - It would have been easier if there were a variety of other props at hand.

 

What is your favorite part of this image? My favorite aspect of the image is the how the individual images layered together flow to show motion over a period of time. What was the most difficult part of this process? The most difficult part of the process was finding an angle that prevented overlap and maintained lighting throughout. What was the easiest part of this process? The easiest part of the process was having the subject run and taking a burst shot from a single location.

 

 Water Droplet With Flash Was it easy to get a good shot? Why/why not? - Yes it was easy to get a good shot as we were using a burst mode to capture consistent dropping of water. What did you like/not like about shooting water with the flash? - I liked how the droplet remains suspended above the bowl and didn't like the texture the cardboard in the back created. Colored Water and Paper Was it easy to get a good shot? Why/why not? - It was a little difficult initially trying to focus, however after doing so, we used the camera's burst mode to prevent timing errors when shooting. What did you like/not like about shooting water without the flash? - I liked shooting without the flash as it resulted in less of a glare on the water and emphasized the color. Colored Water Was it easy to get a good shot? Why/why not? - Getting this shot proved to be difficult as the camera didn't focus onto the water. The image was also originally very dark and tinted yellow. What did you like/not
