1. Eadward Muybridge/History of motion photography – what did he photograph and why was he famous?
Eadweard James Muybridge was an English photographer important for his pioneering work in photographic studies of motion and in motion-picture projection.
2. What shutter speeds should you use to blur motion?
The reason for movement blur is simply that the amount of time that the shutter of a camera is open is long enough to allow your camera’s image sensor to ‘see’ the movement of your subject.
3. What shutter speeds should you use to freeze motion?
Use a quick shutter speed.
4. What shutter speeds should you use to take pictures of sports?
You should use quick shutter speed to freeze the motion and get more detail.
5. Define the following terms:
* Panning: Refers to the rotation in a horizontal plane of a still camera or video camera. Panning a camera results in a motion similar to that of someone shaking their head "no" or of an aircraft performing a yaw rotation.
* Painting with light: Painting with light is a fun technique that gives great results. It is called painting with light because this is what you are actually doing while taking the shot.
* Cotton candy effect: to give water a cotton candy effect or silky look use a slow shutter speed.

Type Of Motion Image: Things I Can Take Pictures Of:
Fast Shutter Speed (frozen motion) 1/125 and above): Water splashing
Slow Shutter Speed (blurred motion, 1/40 and below): Water flowing (Cotton Candy Effect)
Painting with light (capturing the motion of light): Traffic on the freeway at night
Panning (moving camera with the subject): Car driving on the street
Continuous Shots of Same Motion: Basketball players in a game
Time lapse photography: The sky (at different times of the day)
