Panning Set Subject Guidelines
The image is to be taken while panning the camera. Blurred backgrounds must be created by the camera movement and not the use of post-production software.
What you can learn:
- Experiment with shutter speeds to determine what parts of an image show motion and add to the story.
- How changing the shutter speed can affect the clarity of the subject or parts of the subject and blur the background.
- Practice panning through using the hips to turn with the subject with the arms close to the body.
