Chloe Smith is exploring different mood board techniques like multiple exposure, photo montages, and motion. She wants to combine rural and urban images to create dark and mysterious multiple exposure photos. For photo montages, she will experiment with combining ordinary images and outdoor scenes. Using motion techniques with slow shutter speeds, she hopes to draw with light and distort images to create ghostly effects. Overall, she aims to make original and interesting images through experimentation with these techniques.

2. Multiple/Double Exposure
I have chosen these images because I think that they are quite dark and mysterious. By manipulating images
I take I could create some sinister pictures using these images as inspiration. To achieve these types of
images I could combine rural and wooded areas, rural and urban, or even old and new. I could add in figures
or ghostly subjects, and using clouds or simple backgrounds could be effective. I would like to try and get
images of wooded areas so I can overlay a more modern subject over the top. Overall I think I will be able to
make some original and interesting images. I just need to experiment.

3. Photo Montage/Collages
I have chosen these images because I like
how strange and out of the ordinary they
are, and how people have combined
ordinary images with more outdoor scenes
and putting old pictures on top of modern
ones. I think I could make some interesting
and stand-out images with this
technique, as well as creating different
montages of the same image and seeing
which one works the best. I can achieve this
technique by cutting around/out a subject
in the image and putting a different one in
it’s place, as well as moving the subject to
another image.

4. Motion
I have chosen these images because I like how you
can experiment with different light sources and
achieve completely different images by the way
you move the light or the camera. You can draw
things with the light or you can create strange light
effects by having something move past the camera
while it is on a slow shutter speed. Also, by moving
the camera when on a slow shutter speed you can
make a non-moving object become distorted and
warp, possibly creating a ghostly image, or one
with interesting light effects.
