PJ091 Creative Photography with Meredith Mullins: The Art of Motion

Movement brings energy, emotion, and dynamism to photography. Whether you want to freeze action with perfect sharpness, create stunning motion blur, or experiment with panning techniques, this hands-on workshop will guide you through the creative possibilities of motion in photography.

Anyone who would like to stay after class for a social lunch (and further discussion) is welcome. All levels and all types of cameras welcome.

What to Expect:

The workshop will consist of an introduction lecture/discussion featuring practical information, a review of the work of notable photographers, and creative outdoor practice guided by the instructor. 

Learning Objectives:

• Freezing vs. Blurring Action – Learn how to control shutter speed to either stop movement in its tracks or create a sense of motion.
• Panning for Dynamic Shots – Practice tracking moving subjects for a striking effect.
