Blurring Work Diary

In this lesson I shot the technique of blurring. I found blurring very easy, and I found it the exact same as the formal element of movement which I shot last year in my first year of A level photography. I decided to shoot inside as it was very cold outside however I think this worked well as the lighting was dim and brought a dark eerie vibe to my photos. I think I would use blurring within my personal shoots however I wouldn't make it heavy blurring as I would want my subject to be recognisable.

In this photo I blurred my friend called Nathan and it came out really well. However I wanted it more blurry to make it seem ghostly, therefore when I edited the picture I duplicated the layer and dragged it across to give it this ghostly vibe, I think this idea worked well and made the picture come out better. In this picture I like how the colours are quite differing and blur into one another rather than being a whole and hitting each other.

In this picture I quickly took a blurred picture when a random person was walking down the corridor as I thought it would look cool, and I think it does. I like this picture because its almost as if the blurred corridor traps the person in, making it seem as if he alone and something bad is going to happen, or he is something dangerous as he as a subject is completely black. I also like how this picture is on a wonk and the composition is not completely straight as I thinks this adds to the effect I have already listed.
