Photography

Photography Projects : Use the Pi Camera and a push-button switch to create stop-motion and time-lapse videos. Learn to use open-source applications to combine images into a movie and add a sound track!

The Pi Shop uses the Raspberry Pi HD camera installed on a Pi Zero to make a compact, portable high-performance photo and video system. The Pi Camera has a Python API for student exercises in still photography, time-lapse and stop-motion, and full video projects.

The PiZero in case with built-in camera. Add a battery and push-button switch to make a compact portable photo/video system!

Here are sample video's made in the Pi Shop this year at Henry Ford. Check out the special effects!

The Pi Shop photo studio in action! Students enter a Python script and use a push button switch to take photos. We use a video projector to create a static or changing background and then set the stage with characters and props.

The Pi Zero camera view of the scene is displayed live on the monitor on the left so each picture can be composed. Students take pictures to create a story line, then use open-source apps to combine the images into a video and can even add a soundtrack!

Photography: Exercises using the Pi Camera for still photography using simple Python scripts.

Here's a first Person Video (FPV) Pi project that runs over WiFi as a web video in near real time! You can drive this remotely - fun!

Remote Camera Project: Using a Pi Zero and HD camera we can create a lightweight payload for creative remote quality photography and video projects. Anything is possible!
