Slow Sync Work Diary

In this shoot we studied the technique of slow sync which involved us using a studio light, a red head and a blocker to block the light falling on the background and any flare that could hit the camera lens. With this technique blurring is produced alongside a still image and it creates quite a cool effect. i really enjoyed this technique and it seems a lot easier when you are doing it as opposed to it being explained, i think it would make a really nice effect in perhaps a dance shoot, therefore I will do a shoot of the black swan and use this technique within it.


This is my favourite picture form the shoot as it shows Amelia spinning however her arm is very constant and it almost looks as if she is dragging her blur behind her with the positioning of her hand. I also didn't over edit these pictures as I like the distorted colour. I feel like the blur kind of looks like a flame and I think this looks really cool as she pulls it across.

I like this image as it almost looks like two faces with the blur and with the sharp image of her. I put this picture in this work diary because I thought it was a good example of slow sync as Amelia looks very sharp in one instant and very blurred in another. I like how black the back drop looks as it makes the flame orange blur stand out against it. I also like the composition of this image and that she is not central, i just think it is a nice effect and change.
