Multiple Flash - Image Bank







These images are all examples of multiple flash, multiple flash is not dissimilar to sequencing in the way that it is used to tell a story however they are different in the way that in sequencing you layer the photos so they are block images and if they overlap the layers are visible and not opaque like in these multiple flash images where the layers are obvious and it is almost as if the subject in the image is still moving - at least that is the aim of this technique.  Multiple flash has a really interesting look and technique to it which I will attempt when I study animals in Unit 3.

Multiple Flash - Work Diary

Evaluation:
In this session on multiple flash I tried very hard to get appropriate photographs. I did struggle with certain areas of this topic due to the fact that the ideas I wanted to do required me to let in more light than you are supposed to. I enjoy the effect of multiple flash though as I think you could really tell a story with this technique for example when I did my research the photos of people cliff diving are really inspirational because you can see the subject take the leap, fly through the air and then hit the water. I found this technique quite hard though as making sure you flash the camera the right amount of times and at the right moment is extremely difficult.

Progression:
If I were to shoot multiple exposure again in the future I would focus more on my lighting and how the light and how its set up effects the focus. An actual shoot I would like to focus on would be perfecting my idea of a hair flick, I would like to capture someone throwing their head around in multiple directions to try and see if multiple flash would work out with this idea. Also I would like to re-shoot the shot in my straight images of Frankie with her arms slowly raising over her head as I think I can make this better. A new idea I would like to try is with two people running back and forth and capturing them as they weave in between each other.
