What's this kind of picture called?

[caucasian_chad]

The kind with the skier in it multiple times showing the trick.

I want to learn how to make one in Photoshop but first I need to know what they're called.

 

[invader7]

sequence

 

[gordie.]

if u dont know wat its called u got a long way to go

 

[BEARS.]

a good sequence at that

 

[Balto]

very

 

[YT.SKEEZE]

and by the way you dont photoshop a sequence you set your shuter speed extremely high to capture it

 

[alaskakid]

is that a sw 9 or sw 10 is my question

 

[cobra_commander]

looks to be a sw 9 that is being forced into a sw 10.

it is called a sequence,

you do it by taking a bunch of photos while the rider is in the air without moving the camera. then merging the frames together .

you need to shoot at 5 frames a second or faster, that looks to be done at around 8.

 

[Holte]

i really really hope you're being sarcastic.

 

[three6steeze]

hes saying you dont do the trick like 50 times and take a new photo each time or so i believe, because when your done you do photoshop that mfer.

 

[emopoppins]

the same trick done multiple times and shopped together would look crazy.

 

[no_steeze]

10 it looks like, it seems like he's still rotating in the last shot

 

[scientist]

duh, if it was a measly switch nine he would never get sponcedre

 

[mmckechnie]

why is the chair not in sequence as well?

 

[spruitm]

i didnt know what they were called and ive made plenty of them

 

[Scott~]

Photoshop now has the ability to stop time. Its incredible.

 

[PBraunstein]

lol... when you merge the frames together you only take one single background shot...

 

[shredwards]

heres pne i made in about ten minutes. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30028863&id=1561260036 not sure if it works through facebook though

 

[Yosh]

sequence

 

[Eric_D]

is the sequence of Phil Casabon?

 

[Downhilldaletas]

haha

 

[skiEER]

K2 has a poster like that with all thier different riders doing a 180

 

[shredwards]

yeah i have that poster, signed by turpin and pep.

 

[Holte]

it also has nothing to do with shutter speed.

 

[shredwards]

well not technically, but you need a damn fast shutter speed to take like 6-10 photos while the skier is still in the air. or you can just use a video and pause it on the frames you need

 

[imbeezy]

can you make a sequence in aperture

 

[bobs]

well what you do is take one background image, usually your first frame, and then you cut the other frames and only paste the parts that have a skier in them. that way other changes like people, chairs, blowing trees, flags or anything don't really matter.

 

[StanMcStanson]

It would be worth trying, but I think it would look like shit because the person would be at different heights in each frame.

 

[PBraunstein]

not if all the skiers hit the feature at about the same speed... (which isnt that hard to judge)... i think you could make this look really sick on a box... except you have like 6 skiers do 2sev on pretz 2sev out with the same exact sequence and then paste them all on to one picture..

 

[StanMcStanson]

Yeah, I didn't think about a box or rail....that would look so sick! And have each skiier dress in all of 1 color, so it looks like 1 person changed color while they were on it.

 

[no_steeze]

and you won't get sponsored for spelling!!!!!!!

 

[snowboardersrule]

if you shoot it close up on the rider and follow the action with the camera than you have to create a background with all the different images. that way is a lot harder. usually that is what you see in a skate mag, but its usually left unedited and they just show all the different pics.

 

[slashquatch]

thats whats so sick about it

 

[bobs]

that has potential

 

[grifter]

yea, sick idea, time to but that 7.5 fps to use.... (guess the camera)

 

[PBraunstein]

argh... i should've kept my mouth closed... im cameraless until next winter hopefully.. tryin to get my hands on a D40... what do you shoot with?
