Jerry Spagnoli
In this photo shoot i really tried to incorporate some of Spagnoli's skills that he often uses in his work such as long exposures and a variety of quick and long shutter speeds. Spagnoli's work really stood out and i wanted to try and use his features in my work to create a better understanding in photography.
In BMX photography it is key to explore different techniques and how they can effect your work, one of these techniques can be quick shutter speed, so you might be wondering why would i want to use a quick shutter speed or a short shutter speed, well by using a quick shutter speed it allows you to snap the picture quickly, in action sports like bmxing its very helpful seeing as its a fast moving sport.
When using a quick shutter speed we need to have it set at the right option otherwise it could result in getting blurs and other things that arent wanted in the final picture. When having a longer shutter speed it snaps the picture at what it sees but if you use a long shutter speed in a fast moving sport then you are left with the blurs and other things this is because the camera snaps what it sees. Faster shutter speed normally creates sharper images, as a rule.
Using longer shutter speeds in BMX photography can create different effects, using the technique "Panning" whilst using longer shutter speeds begins to create blurred effects, these blurry effects make an impression that the rider is going fast, the more you work with these photos and plan the setup of the image the more you can create effects that you are looking to tie in with your theme of work.
