[Project] Collaboration #3 - Toss Squared
|
Camera Toss, one idea, different people, different approaches...
The goals of this experiment are to stimulate collaboration, co-inspiration, and to see what results different people get based on the same idea.
The idea: Toss a Toss, or Toss Squared - Create a Camera Toss image, and use that image as a target for subsequent Camera Tosses.
What is Camera Tossing? (Are you new?) Camera tossing means your camera is thrown into the air, out of your hands and untethered while taking the photo, not moved in your hand, or attached to a strap which you hold in your hand. If you are new or not sure what it is please read the tutorials which are listed below, or ask Camera Toss group admin or moderators:
Instructions for Beginners
Mini-HowTo
HowTo
...and be careful while tossing your camera, you will do this at your own risk! Rules / InstructionsOk, let’s start the experiment...
1. Use any light sources you want to create a Camera Toss image.
2. Display this primary Camera Toss image in some fashion (i.e., on your computer monitor in fullscreen mode, on a TV, projected onto a screen, etc.).
3. Create a second Camera Toss image using the primary Camera Toss image as your target. Minor graphical elements can be added to the primary Toss image, but alteration of the inherent geometry of the primary Toss image is not allowed. In the example shown below a single white line and a single blue line were added adjacent to the geometric pattern produced in the primary Toss.
4. IMPORTANT Upload your images to your flickr account and tag them with the required tags and the required text/code to the description (see below).
5. Post both your primary Camera Toss image and your second Camera Toss image (small size) to this thread, as shown in the following example:
Primary Toss
Toss Squared
Feel free to add a short description of the approach used, what kind of initial light source was used, how the primary Camera Toss image was displayed to produce the Toss Squared image, special camera settings used, what post-processing employed, etc.
6. Post-processing is allowed but please limit to adjusting colors, curves/levels, brightness, contrast or resize. Do not perform editing to the geometry produced by the employed toss techniques. The shapes are required to be made in-camera, not with Photoshop!
7. Most importantly, have fun with this experiment and camera tossing :-)

Could we continue this thread in a slightly different format?
Tossing someone else's toss. Or maybe it should be collab #4? What say tossers? Of course you would need permission from the owner...

jah, go ahead and start that thread if you like, then reply to yourself with the results. If it needs clearer text instructions, David or I may pop in and upgrade it to Collab #4.
The sharing (reply) format might be to include the properly linked/credited original, and then your set of results.
Be careful with this idea, perhaps stick to creative-commons licenses that allow derivative works, or just ask for permission from the original creator.
You are free to start from any of mine that are cc-by-nc-sa (most of them).

Nice addition to the Toss Squared thread, Jon.
John, we'll look for the new Collab #4 thread after the holidays. Thanks for coming up with a politically complicated idea! :-)
