Hyper-Lapse

I created my hyper-lapse by placing my camera carefully on top of a tripod. I then positioned the tripod which had my camera on the edge of a pavement so that my main subject was positioned centrally in the frame. Next, I took a shot of the subject standing still on the curb of the pavement and every time I took a shot, I tracked backward whilst the subject moved forwards. I created the final video (hyper-lapse) by putting all the photos that I took into one folder. I then opened Photoshop. Once Photoshop was opened, I went to into the "File" menu and then clicked on "Open".   Once I had done that, I Navigated to the folder where all the photos were. I selected the first photo that I took.  Once the Photo has opened in photoshop, I went to the "Dialogue Box" and then clicked on "Image Sequence" By clicking "Open", it will import the photos into a time-lapse video fi

For more than ten years, Tom Manley has worked in architectural firms before becoming a photographer, focusing on architecture and the built environment. Manley lives and shoots most of his photographs in Glasgow. In 2008, Manley entered the Glasgow Institute of Architects photography competition.

Below is the one photograph of Manley's which inspires me the most. source: http://tommanleyphotography.com/urban-landscapes/ This photograph of Manley's inspires me the most because many people look at urban derelictions and think that they are eye sores but to me they are fascinating, wondering what was there and what it was like. This photograph relates to chaos because there are weeds and rubbish all over the place which makes it chaotic and why I really like it which is why I have decided to shoot digital with inspiration from Tom Manley.

Below are some good examples of multiplicity photographs. http://easthsdigitalphoto.weebly.com/what-are-we-doing-today.html http://www.positive-magazine.com/world-of-one/ https://www.ormsdirect.co.za/blog/2015/05/11/creating-action-sequences-in-photoshop/ I created my own multiplicity photograph by experimenting on photoshop, through masking in the layers palette. Firstly, I set up my camera making sure it was secure on top of a sturdy tripod so that there was no unnecessary camera movement. I then got the main subject to do a specific action in different locations in the frame for every different photograph that I took. I tried to link all the shots that I took of the subject by making them perfo
