Time Lapse

The final products are hosted by vimeo



I was really interested in time lapse so I did multiple videos based on my ideas  (also due to the way I uploaded my time lapse are not very good quality full screen please view at the default size)


Motion through out a long period of time (2 hrs)

Double Exposure

For these images I layered an image of the inside of the structure on an outside wall. No real reason why I just liked the idea.

Portraits

Over the weekend at the strip I met Francis and followed her around for a bit. She is 73 lives in Arkansas and is a Walmart employee at the return desk. She is also a big fan of all the Pittsburgh sports teams.

Motion

When I see motion blur in images instead of automatically thinking of motion I generally think about the time that elapsed, and how that blur shows how that at different moments in time just about anywhere you step has been occupied before and will be again many times.

Bokeh/Isolation/Confusion

 I found that walking through downtown late at night the traffic lights and other things are much more interesting when there are fewer people to see them.

Color

I decided to use incorrect white balance and color tints to create photos with colored tints to emphasize the mood/ emotion/ state of being in the photo.

Exposure

 For my images I thought of the idea of the energy of a room when you are are the point of attention in a large or small group. Because of that fact my images all have the same exposure because only the faces and body language of the subjects change.

Exposures: f-5.0 shutter- 1/160 

Koyaanisqati

After watching the film Koyaanisqatsi: Life out of Balance,  I find that the film had an emphasis on human’s rapid expansion, and lack of attention to the environment. The reason I get this impression is mainly because of the connections that the film made at the beginning with its opening on the environment. While in the daytime and the picture was of the environment the music was rather upbeat, and when the music was darker there was more shadows and smoke, elements that are more commonly associated with things that many not be good. By using those images with the music when the humans arrive in the environment, and begin to use the resources around them the “bad” music began to play to infer that the arrival of people was a bad event. After the association is made it is built upon through the rest of the movie with the scene where humans partially use the environment. Then continues as larger cities are built and the environment is no longer visible.

To further the idea of human waste once the city is built there are many scenes where the waste, and lack of care for the environment are shown through different means from trash filled streets with empty public areas, to manufacturing companies rapidly using a lot of the same material. After more footage of humans continuing to live through life in their cities using more materials it cuts back to footage of a rocket taking off after images of a barren wasteland are shown to signify that all the resources in the area are gone and the humans need to move on. After the entire film ends its point has been made clear by tying elements together, and then associating them with other images later to show what the films creator believes is good or bad.
