Harold Edgerton!!
Harold Edgerton!!
Edgerton revolutionized photography, science, military surveillance, Hollywood filmmaking, and the media through his invention of the strobe light in the early 1930s.
The photographs that resulted from his scientific experiments were championed in the 1930s as representative of the New Objectivity, the American counterpart to the German Neue Sachlichkeit.
Edgerton's photography of split-second motion may be seen as an expansion beyond the nineteenth-century locomotion studies of by Eadweard Muybridge and Étienne-Jules Marey.

Freeze the action — the subject should look crisp and still.
Slow Shutter Speed (e.g., 1/30 or slower)
Show motion blur — the movement should appear streaked or ghosted.
4. Submit (use the below digihandout):
2 photos (1 frozen motion, 1 motion blur)
Details for each photo:
Location on campus (e.g., gym, hallway)
Shutter speed used
A brief caption (1–2 sentences): What did you notice about the subject when using a fast shutter speed? What did you notice when using a slow shutter speed? When do you want to use a fast shutter speed?
