BODIES in MOTION Image Gallery

Welcome to the Bodies in Motion reference library. This is a small exhibition of photographs from Scott's recent Bodies in Motion photo shoots.

The goal of the shoots, and the library, is to capture high-quality dynamic reference of the figure in motion, inspired by Eadweard Muybridge. Each action was captured at 10 frames-per-second from multiple camera angles - giving an artist multiple high-resolution points of reference for resolving the figure's pose and balance.

The image library continues to expand - there are currently 30 models and over 30,000 images capturing a huge variety of motions and body types. I will continue to add samples from these sets below. The library is being made available as a subscription resource for artists and agencies in late 2012. If you would like to be on the mailing list for the site or to inquire about licensing/commissioning photography please contact me here.
