Eadweard Muybridge: Post from Anna
Hey ladies,
Considering we did some stop motion photo work ourselves recently, I figured it would good for you to see the work of the guy who sort of discovered this technique. Eadweard Muybridge used photography to try and answer some questions about the way the human body (and animal bodies) moved. He took a series of photographs of people or animals repeating a certain motion, like walking, dancing, horses running, etc. to see how the body moved scientifically. This was really significant in photography and in science! Do you think you could discover something by taking stop motion photographs? How do they compare to the work we made last week? Can you think of something similar we could do with all the technology we have today?
See you tomorrow!

A Post From Anna
Hello Ladies!
I thought It'd share with you some photographs by photographer Ruth Orkin. I was just working restoring and reproducing an original print of hers at my other job at the gallery. I thought you all would really like the photo of the woman walking through the street in Italy. The model in this photo was a friend Orkin met while traveling in Italy and they collaborated to create scenes of what it was like for an American woman living in Italy. How do you think she feels in the image? Keep in mind this was taken in the 1950's. Do you think a similar scene would happen today? This photo is probably her most famous. It's considered "iconic" in American photography. How does it compare to some other iconic photographs we've looked at? Take a look at her other work too. What do you think of while looking at her work? I hope you like these!
