Work Diary- Multiple Exposure

Evaluation

This was a new technique that I had not done before by adjusting the camera's settings in order to creating a multiple exposure photo. This was largely an experimental shoot trying out this technique. Initially, I thought it would be difficult to grasp however I managed to figure out what I wanted to achieve from the shoot. Although I don't think the variation of shots that I got was quite large I am happy with a couple of the shots that I think become interesting because they are overlapped by other images. I think doing multiple exposure on the cameras settings is more difficult, as overlapping them manually on Photoshop gives you a higher degree of control of factors such as composition. Overall, I am happy with this shoot, although I wish I had thought about the photos before I took them more.


This is my favourite photo from this shoot as I feel by adding more layers to this photo makes it feel like a hallucination. I did this by turning the camera and then taking another photo from a different angle. I also like this photo as the number plate is the focal point in this photo due to the bright yellow colour. One thing that I would improve next time about this picture is planning where to position the camera so that it rotates evenly so that it looks more precise rather than looking slightly messy.


I think this photo looks unrealistic which is what I like about this photo. I first took a photo of the leaves then of the path, and the camera merged the two photos together over one another. There is  a leading line in this photo which draws your eyes to the end of the path and it appears a lot longer than it actually is.







I could use multiple imagery in many different ways in my personal project. I could manually do it by editing it on Photoshop, or by adjusting the cameras settings so that it overlaps the two photos. Even though I am not particularly keen on this technique, I feel that it will add an interesting dimension to my photos rather than using little technique. I think this is a useful experimental shoot so that you have some room to decide what kind of photos you want.
