Due April 3, 12 noon. 4 pts. 30 frames.
Working outside in the day, freeze the motion of athletes, roller skaters, skate boarders and bike riders, dancers, jumping dogs or try a fountain. Get your friend or brother or sister to blow bubbles, jump rope, go on a swing. Try at least two different types of subjects ie soccer players and bikers, kids on swings and dancers. Capture the decisive moment. The soccer player when their leg is fully stretched out in a kick, a bike rider doing a wheelie. Don’t be shy. Fill your frame with the action.
Subjects that don’t get credit: cars, tiny birds far away, fans, water in your facet.
Use a shutter speed 1/400 sec or faster.
If using a cameraphone outside in bright light, it will automatically use a fast shutter speed. If you are working with less light, use Lightroom or other app that lets you set the shutter speed.
