Motion PhotoGRAPHY WORKSHOP

Tuesday, January 30, 2024

Fulton County Arts & Culture Public Art Futures Lab

Photography is known for freezing a moment, but it’s also great for reconstructing time in completely different ways. Explore the power of lining up a bunch of images really fast so it looks like the horse is running. Between his work with movement artists and the nightlife scene, Atlanta artist Jordan Young is almost always capturing and depicting movement through photography. Learn his techniques for stopping, reanimating, stretching, and looping time so you too can make that horse run—backwards even. This class is great for amateur and established photographers interested in incorporating motion into their work as well as anyone seeking better understanding of the playspace between photo and video.
