Genre
Andrew D. Bernstein is a sports photographer that works for Sports illustrator, he is most commonly know for his photography of players in the NBA. I have decided to use him as on of my inspirations for this shoot. This is because his work in my opinion captures the most perfects and elegant moments within the NBA, making it look as if the world has stopped for a minute.
Andrew D. Bernstein is an American photographer that takes photographs of various professional athletes and is recognised as an All-Star in his department of work. This is also another reason why I have chosen to use him as a source of inspiration for my final piece.
Purpose/Rules of photography
The purpose of Andrew D. Bernsteins' photography is to create memories within major sporting events in the NBA. As you can see he has tended to use quite a lot of high and low angle shots within his photography in order to give the viewers a different insight into how amazing the acts that these athletes are preforming really are.
One photographic rule I have noticed was low depth of field, this is done in order to keep the primary focus on the athletesin action. I believe this photographic rule gains more attention from the audience due to the fact that the goings on in the background have been blurred out in order to keep primary focus on the main athlete.
When looking at these images I can see that Andrew D. Bernstein has a centre of interest, this is noticeable in the first photograph more than the second one, due to the fact that the centre of interest are seen clearly through Kobe and Durant, this gives the viewers something to keep their focus on.
Meaning
If
you look at some of his pieces you can see that he has literally
captures the most perfect within the basketball game. I believe the
purpose behind this picture makes you feel amazed, almost leaving the
viewers in awe wondering how such a thing is even possible to whiteness.
It's almost af if he is telling a story with his photography, leaving
the audience in complete spectacle when viewing the photographs he's
taken
