How to Capture Dance Movement | Take and Make Great Photography with Gavin Hoey
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- Long exposure photography allows a picture to build up over time. That’s exactly what you want when your subject is moving and you need to show all that movement in a single still photo. This is a surprisingly simple technique that’s perfect for sports portraits or in this case dance photography.
In his small home studio (just 15 feet wide) photographer, Gavin Hoey starts by hanging up a makeshift black background. For lighting, he uses a continuous LED to capture the dancers’ moves during a long exposure. A Flashpoint Xplor400 is then added to freeze the dancer with a burst of flash. The key to making all this work is using a camera setting called slow sync flash, which is also known as 2nd curtain sync flash. Different name, same results.
Luckily Gavin takes you through all of the information you need to recreate this shot at home. By the end of the video, you'll understand how and why combining two very different light types creates such amazing and beautiful dance photos.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR WATCHING! - Навчання та стиль
I'm not sure if I missed Gavin's explanation, but for those who want to try this, setting your camera/lens to manual focus and focusing on a spot in the room where the dancer will end up, is an effective way to get the flash exposure sharp.
Thank you. I was wondering about that.
Contents like these can make you very grateful for having UA-cam in our time!
That “oops” first curtain sync looked really cool too! I like that you showed this, because it teaches about rear curtain sync, and about how you can even be creative with the first curtain sync as well!
Sophie did a great job working within the limits of the room! I can only imagine what she could do with a large space!
Indeed Rhonda. It was a challenge, even for an experienced dancer, to repeat dance moves over and over again in very little room.
Gavin Hoey, a brilliant photography instructor and the perfect antidote to photographic ruts. Always fun to watch, lucidly explained, and you walk away itching to try out yourself what he's been up to. Great job by Sophie and the studio assistant too. 👍
Love Gavin! His enthusiasm and his teaching/skills makes his tutorials fun to watch. Thanks Gavin for being YOU. You are appreciated
Very well explained well done Gavin
Phillip, I remember you covering the same subject in a video featuring a beautiful dancer named Georgia.
Loved the results! I have done similar photos in the past, with a tennis player and other sports enthusiasts. i always watch your videos, because I get inspired to experiment. Keep them coming!
Thanks, Gavin! Always amazing work that you make look so simple.
Whenever I think your videos cannot get any better, they do.
that was brilliant, such great shots and simply explained. Gavin is such a good teacher
I've seen tons of Gavin's videos and there are many very good ones, but this is the absolute best !! The background music works so well. Thanks, Gavin, Sophie and Adorama.....
Gavin, you are simply the best of all! thank you with all my heart
Everything seems easier when explained by Gavin. Great video as always! Thank you!
Rear curtain best explanation ever. Clear, precise, in less than 10 mins. I watched like 8 videos before watching this. Now I know exactly how to use it. Fantastic job!
absolute brilliant, the model and the photographer
Love your energy and enthusiasm Gavin. Keep inspiring
Gavin is my favorite photographer! so creative and unique but at the same time very humble and fun.
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G as always dear Gavin! And the technique is explained in a way that makes it feel as if it was world's simplest ting to do with a camera in hand!
Thank you for such valuable content!
Teaching and creating fine art pieces at the same time. You’re like a tenth degree black belt who has achieved mastery at levels of knowledge that the rest of us don’t even know exist. You really have outdone yourself with this one, Gavin.
Gavin always a pleasure to watch
When you think you seen every technique, Gavin comes out and shows a new and easier way.
Funny and highly entertaining, yet also incredibly instructive and informative. Gavin and his team are absolutely stunning in what they do and deliver to us.

Wow, Gavin! You never disappoint. I look forward to trying this. 😊
Another level
Great. Thanks Sophie and Gavin. Stay safe.
Absolutely amazing!
Brilliantly done! Thank you for sharing. 😊
Gavin just has a way of simplifying it all. NOW I understand how to do this. He's right though, Seth Miranda is the King of the Shutter Drags for portraits. No photoshopping by Seth, just straight from the camera it's stunning!
Absolutely love this
Thanks for the shoutout Gavin! Great video always a fun technique
You're so much more than pop and blur but BLIMEY Seth, you're the best at it!
Well explained with excellent results. I must give it a go one day, thanks Gavin for the inspiration.
Amazing! Thank you!!!
You explain things so simply - thanks
excellent demonstration
Trying today. Very exiting.
This girl is a joy to watch dancing.
Yeah!! Another great video, I always enjoy your content, you are one of my favorites photographers..Keep it up!!
Great video! I used to achieve the same results with the old stroboscopic method. It is tedious and very technical. Gavin was able to simplify this and made it fun for both the model and photographer. Great job and results! This will definitely be my new method!
Love these easy to understand videoes! Beautifull photos, simple setup, creative and using Olympus (when it seems everyone is going fullframe) 🙏😉
Great tutorial! Thank you Gavin!
Brilliant explanation thank you
Thanks a lot Gavin, for this very well explained tutorial, you are really a great teacher to show how to take pictures a different way. Also thanks to the dancer which did a great job too. Best greetings from Denmark
