Sam Hurd – An Impossible Double Exposure. Photo Deconstruction

By popular request – I’m excited to bring you this photo deconstruction! I highly recommend watching the video to fully understand what’s going on.

Also, here’s a link to the projector I’m using. I’ve also attached from jpeg files to this post to get you started without having to make your own shapes.

Key Takeaways:

• A portable projector can be used to create double exposure photos
• Preparation and practice are key to achieving the desired effect
• Choosing the right shapes and positioning them correctly is important
• Directing the subject and paying attention to details like shutter speed and focus are crucial
• The projector’s brightness can create a dramatic effect by overwhelming the background

I’ve owned several portable projectors over the years, but by far, this one has become my favorite tool. It’s a smart mini projector from Texas Instruments, an old-school company known for its reliable technology. This little device isn’t perfect, but it comes pretty close. It essentially runs a version of Android, much like your Apple TV or Android TV OS, right on the device itself. The top panel is touch-sensitive, allowing you to navigate and make selections directly on the projected display.

The projector has a Micro SD slot for loading videos and JPEG files and also boasts internal memory. Plus, it supports casting, so you can AirPlay from your iPhone or cast directly if you’re using Android. I used this projector to create the photo you see here, and I’ll be deconstructing this image to show you how it’s done.

One of the standout features of modern projectors compared to older models is the resolution. The pixelation issue that used to plague older projectors is no longer a concern. When you project light onto a person or a subject, the image remains sharp without noticeable pixels. However, it’s not extremely bright, so you’ll want to work in a darker area to get the best results.
