Kang Seon Jun

Kang Seon Jun is a photographer that uses a continuous shot to show the passing of time. The continuous shots show off ever part of the movement and that shows every slight movement that the dancer goes through in order to get to the end of the movement. King Seon Jun uses the contrast of black and white to make the movement stand out. 


In this image the only movement is of the arms and this shows a very short period of time as the movement of the arms wouldn't take that long. The continuous shot allows the person viewing the photograph go clearly see the arm at different points in the process and this way of photographing the passing of time really show off a tiny amount of time passing in a clear way. 


This image shows off the passing of time through both through the clear movement of the arms and the blurred movement of the legs. This photograph shows both continuous shooting and long exposure due to the fact that the legs are blurred and the movement of them isn't clear. The contrast of colour makes the movement stand out and therefore draws the passing of time out throughout the photograph


The passing of time is shown differently within this photograph as the passing of time show through her dress you can see the time in which it has taken to get the dress to float in this way and this image provokes the idea of time passing rather than showing it because you can visualise the idea and process of the dress getting to that position but also falling down to return to its original position


In this image the passing of time is extremely clear and works together well due to how well the images have been combined. The images work well together and create a successful image that shows off the passing of time. This image uses a combination of movements in order to show the passing of time which isn't very typical of Kang Seon Jun's photography and how they work well together.

Kang Seon Jun has influenced me because I have learnt that there are multiple different ways in which to show the passing of time through the movement of people and that there are many different ways in which to present my work and to show the passing of time. I am also influenced with the colours that have been used and the idea that very simple colours keep the focus on the passing of time. 

To summerise Kang Seon Jun's work influences me a lot as I am looking at photographing dance and movement and Kang Seon Jun has opened my eyes as to a different way in which I can use this technique to really show off the passing of time and make it look very detailed and show everything it needs to.
