Research Log

Reed + Radar

Reed + Radar focus on creating animations, interactive photographs and videos. A lot of their animations and videos are related to fashion as they show 360 degree views of outfits. This photographer is different from many other photographers which i have found therefore i see them as unique and would definitely like to look further into their work.

Pep Ventosa

Pep Ventosa uses a overlaying technique in order to create distorted photographs of iconic building and objects. All of his work is in colour and although there are several layers, the audience are still able to easily recognise what the main focus of the photograph is due to main features being emphasised.

David Hockney

David Hockney uses the photo joiner and multiple imagery technique when editing his work. He looks at both people, objects and landscapes. He allows the audience to see things in more detail due to each individual square representing a small section of the whole photograph.

Christoffer Relander

Christoffer Relander uses a editing technique which combines photographs of people and nature whether it be leaves, trees or flowers. He also edits some of his work to be in black and white which exaggerates the detail within the photograph.

Idris Khan

Idris khan uses the overlaying technique to create their photographs. All of their work is edited to be in black and white which makes all of the photographs look ghostly and haunted. The subject in which Idris Khan focuses on appears to be industrial building such as gas towers.

Hans Eijkelboom

Hans Eijkelboom makes multiple imagery grids of different people who all wearing something similar like a suit or a hooded coat. Each individual photograph looks very natural and unposed so as if he has just captures them as they are walking in the street.

Luciana Urtiga

Luciana Urtiga uses a multiple imagery technique in order to create eerie but interesting photographs. It has been created by the same photograph  being repeated on top of each other. The majority of this photographer work is edited to be in black and white which saids to the sense that the photograph is showing no emotion and is for the audience to interpret.

John Duenas

John Duenas uses multiple exposure  to create a series of multiple imagery photographs. In his work he combines both people and nature however the exposure is very soft and subtle therefore it looks much more natural rather than deliberately edited in this specific way.

Hans Malm

All pictures in the Forecast series by hans Malm are double exposures on negative black-and-white film. First the entire roll of film was shot in one city and  then he rewound the film and exposed the entire roll once again in another city somewhere else in the world. This creates the effect which we can see here.

Bernd and Hilla Becher

This photograph creates multiple imagery grids of industrial places and object. The majority of their work is edited to be in black and white which i feel adds to the industrial feel of their work.

Damien Blottiere

This photographer uses the montage effect in order to show multiple images in one photograph. When editing this the photographer erases certain sections of the front layer in order for the behind layer to be seen. This means that both photographs can be seen at the same time without having to change the opacity. Also all of this photographs are of high end fashion and beauty.

Joshua Barash

This photographer photographs structures, landscapes, or objects and then converts the images into slides, and then project them directly onto the model's body. This then creates the illusion that they are part of the model body opposed to be edited to be there.

Jerry Uelsmann

This photograperh uses the montage technique in order to combine both natural thing such as tree trunks with human things such as hands. This then creates the illusion that they are one one thing rather that two separate objects.

Wanda Wulz

Wanda Wulz was an Italian experimental photographer. One great example of her works is the self-portrait merged with a portrait of a cat which is the one which can be seen on the left hand side. The majority of her work is in black and white and focuses on combining animation faces with human faces.

Sam Oster

These images as they are simple and the black and white effect allows the audience to focus on the content a lot more. The selves in which they have been placed on are acting as the grid which is used in multiple imagery pieces like this.

Stephanie Jung

This photographer uses an overlay technique to create her multiple imagery pieces. She mainly photographs busy cities and industrial places. Although the overall image is distorted, the audience are still able to recognise what the photograph is of.

Jim Golden

This photographer uses repetition within his work to show Multiple Imagery as a technique. All of the different elements within his photograph are neatly organised and placed within the composition.

Connecting Essay Five

This animation by Reed + Radar  is of six model who have been placed in a line therefore it is easily to look at and doesn't get confusing at there are various shots of the same model which can seem busy to the audience. This animation is showing the same model is different outfit as well as allowing the audience to see a 360 degree shot of each outfit. All of the models outfits are black which contrasted against the white background and ensure that each outfit is the main focus of the animation. Lastly the fact that each outfit is shown one after the other, show that there is structure in the animation and it will be easier to look at for the audience. The movement of turning around is made in four 80 degree movements which keeps continuity within the animation. 

This is an example of one of my own animation which shows a 360 degree view of the model as she is turning around in the animation. The animation shows the whole of the models outfit and resembles something which you would see on a fashion website. Unlike the animation above, the movement of turning around is made of much smaller movements which makes the animation flow better rather than it jumping from one movement to another. The animation appears to stop slightly when the model is facing forward in order to make sure that the front of the outfit is the main focus. A black background has been used to create a contrast between the model and background and allows the model to stand out and be  the main focus.








Overall both of these animation connect as they both show a 360 degree view of the models outfit by her turning round. However the first photograph is showing one model in six different outfits where as my animation is just showing one outfit on the model.  

Connecting Essay Four

 This photograph  was created by David Hockney and it is a photo joiner piece of a  small town containing building, roads, cars and trees. This photo joiner has been created by by taking detailed close up of all the different element within this town. Then they have been placed back to together to create one photograph. The fact that the smaller images do not match up perfectly shows that this is a photo joiner as this something which is part of this technique. In the center of the image is the road which appear to become narrower, the further away that it becomes. This allows the audience to interpret where the may lead and whether that's where it ends. Lastly it is clear that neural colours have been used so that the images does not look too busy therefore effecting the overall photograph.

 This is an example of my work which is a animated photo joiner of the models eyes opening and closing. It is clear that it is a photo joiner due to each individual photograph not matching at the edge which is the main element of this technique. The animation changed from colour when her eyes are open to black and white when her eyes are close. The is representing what she see when her eyes are close without making the whole animation black as this what she will really see. By using the photo joiner technique, it means that the audience are able to see more detail of the model face than they would if it was just a normal portrait. 

Overall both of these photographs connect as they use the same technique which is a photo joiner, This is apparent due to the obvious features such as the edges not matching which is part of this technique. Also both photographs allow the audience to see the individual elements of the photograph in more detail than they would in a normal portrait or landscape. 

Connection Essay Three

This photograph created by David Hockney uses a multiple imagery grid to divide its contents into smaller section and a photo joiner technique in order to bring the photograph together to created a multiple imagery piece. The audience can see an old man sitting in a chair and because he is  alone and not really doing anything, this allows the audience to interpret the photograph as they look at it. The use of the tilling effect is a alternative editing technique to use to take a Multiple Imagery grid and make it look unique to other photographer work. The photo joiner techniques can also be seen in this photograph as each square does not match together perfectly. The colours within the image again, remain quite neutral and the image is intriguing due to the slight colour that has been added to the image in small sections which allows them to stand out slightly from the rest.




This is an example of my own work and i have created a multiple imagery grid in order to show the different rusted elements at North Weald Redoubt. Each individual square contains a close up which shows the small and intricate details of rusted cans, electric boxes and scrap metal. The way in which the grid is set out, it allows the audience to focus on one element at a time and therefore stops the photograph from looking too busy. The colour scheme contains mainly browns and reds which are the colours which you would associate with rusted objects, 


Overall both of these photographs connect as they both use a multiple imagery grid technique. This technique then allows the audience of both photographs to be able to look at each individual element of the photograph by looking at it a square at a time. This therefore stops the photograph from looking busy.
