Abstract

Sportska fotografija je uz pomoć inovacija i tehnološkog napretka značajno

obogatila povijest fotoreporterstva te omogućila zapis i uspomene najvećih

sportskih događaja. Teorijski dio rada prikazuje osobe zaslužne za razvoj

fotografije kao i prve primjere fotoaparata. Kroz kronološki pregled tehnološkog

poboljšanja fotoaparata opisan je i utjecaj digitalne fotografije u stvaranju bogate

povijesti fotoreporterstva.

U nastavku diplomskog rada predstavljena je kompleksnost današnje opreme

koja uz sva tehnološka dostignuća ne garantira vrhunsku fotografiju. Svaki

fotograf bi se morao detaljno upoznati sa karakteristikama svoje opreme, pa

naredna poglavlja, tijelo fotoaparata i objektivi, opisuju ključne aspekte odabira i

korištenja samog uređaja.

Dinamičnost sportske fotografije zahtjeva i specifične tehnike kako bi dočarali

osjećaj atmosfere, brzine, pokreta i estetike. U diplomskom radu opisane su

tehnike poput panning, zaustavljanje pokreta i sekvenca, koje fotografu

omogućuju postizanje konačnog cilja, tj. pričanja priče putem fotografije.

Seminarski rad je kroz praktičnu primjenu sportske fotografije dodatno opisao

karakteristike i međusobni utjecaj lokacije, sportaša i opreme. Selekcijom i

obradom fotografija stvorena je kolekcija autorskih fotografija koja se kasnije

koristi u uredničke i komercijalne svrhe.

Abstract (english)

With the help of innovation and technological progress, sports photography has

significantly enriched the history of photojournalism, which has enabled the

recording and memories of the greatest sporting events. The theoretical part of

the thesis shows the people responsible for the development of photography as

well as the first examples of cameras. A chronological overview of the

technological improvement of the camera also describes the impact of digital

photography in creating a rich history of photojournalism.

In the continuation of the masters work, the complexity of today's equipment is

presented, which, despite all the technological achievements, does not guarantee

top photography. Each photographer should get acquainted in detail with the

characteristics of their equipment, and the next chapter, the camera body and

lenses, describe the key aspects of choosing and using the device itself.

The dynamism of sports photography also requires specific techniques to evoke

a sense of atmosphere, speed, movement and aesthetics. The thesis describes

techniques such as panning, stopping movement and sequence, which allow the

photographer to achieve the final goal, ie telling a story through photographs.

Through a practical example of sports photography, the seminar paper

additionally described the characteristics and mutual influence of locations,

athletes and equipment. The selection and processing of photographs created a

collection of authorial photographs which was later used for editorial and

commercial purposes.
