Week 3: Shutter Speed Priority


Experimenting with shutter speed with Jojo and Lisa doing cartwheels in the Miller Exhibition Space.

Slow Shutter Speed (1/4-1/5 second):






What  was really cool about using cartwheels to demonstrate slow shutter speed is that there was always one part of the body that was temporarily still and in focus (here, it is Jojo's hand pushing off of the floor). The focus of the photo is at whatever is stationary, which is also the center/starting point of the force of motion.




 Fast Shutter Speed (1/500 second):







Lisa now knows not to cartwheel with her phone in her pocket :-)



What about two cartwheelers going opposite directions?

Fast Shutter Speed  (1/400 second):
Synchronized Round 1:









Slow Shutter Speed (1/4 second):
Synchronized Round 2:
