Monday Morning Coffee: Story Telling

 

A still photographer often waiting for the "right" moment to make an exposure, attempts to capture within a single image  a complete story.  

 

A film/video photographer constructs a sequence of images to tell a story. The totality of frames is "stronger" than each individual frame. 

 

Each - still/video - of these ways of working are attempting to achieve the same result - a story.  

 

While my still photography skills are somewhat under control, the production of a sequence of images is not. Many different choices including panning, zooming, fading and cutting are new to a still photographer. In addition to these camera and editing skills, there is the ability to have a sound track. 

 

Adding this new way of working - while interesting and exciting - to my skill set is going to take time. 

 

Meanwhile, will leave with
