Abstract

Lighting in the field of photography is the main and very important thing. There are many types and variations of lighting, including lighting techniques using artificial light sources. Sources of artificial lighting in photography include flash light sources, flash lights are used as additional sources or substitutes for natural light sources (available light). The Stroboscopic technique is a variation of lighting using a flash, the process involves the use of repeated flashes of light as the photographic subject moves over a certain period of time. This repeating light creates an interesting effect that freezes over and over again. Another thing is that it allows a photographer to capture movement in a unique and creative way.
This technique is often used to clearly record action or movement, as repeated flashes of light allow the subject to be seen in various positions over the shooting time period. For example, in sports photography, Stroboscopic techniques can be used to capture athletes in fast movements such as running or jumping, likewise when a dancer is performing, we can stop their movements repeatedly but still in one shooting frame.
The background to the emergence of the stroboscopic technique is to add uniqueness and a new style to photography, in addition to presenting a dynamic and dramatic aspect to the image. This allows photographers to experiment with movement effects and precise shooting timing thereby creating unique and visually interesting photos. This technique requires a good understanding of camera and lighting settings as well as creativity in their use to achieve interesting and desired results.
