I would like to respond to his work. I’ll be looking at people. My inspiration is the picture above. The man pictured is doing ‘the walk cycle’. Walk cycles are created frame by frame. Essentially they continue forever if you keep going back to the beginning of the cycle. Only six frames were used for Muybridge’s one above, therefore the full walking strides aren’t completed. Having said that, walk cycles are really difficult to capture. You must have precise and advanced knowledge to create one. in 1872, Eadweard Muybridge first started to weight out the skills needed to create one of these. His most famous investigation was the horse, as I mentioned in a previous post. After his massive success, he decided to try the same on humans, and therefore he produced many outcomes. He needed to put into account the force, mass shape, rhythm and others when photographing. By breaking down the images into various shots, he was able to put them back together again. This created clever animations, which is what I’ll be trying out. I’ll be taking a picture of a man against a plain background. He’ll be instructed to slowly walk whilst I snap some images, to capture the precise movements and motions whilst he walks. Just like Muybridge has done I’ll set them up in a sequence. During the editing process, I’ll experiment with black and white, to achieve the ‘olden’ effect that’s present in his images.
