How to shoot a frame portrait

Lead: Guy Viner, an Israeli photographer, plays a special creative role. He has created many realistic frames, portraits, arbitrary doors and perspective effects with the concept of "there are frames in the frame and pictures in the picture", and with simple post-functions, people can't tell the truth from the false, as if they were in a strange world. How did the photographer do it? Let's have a look!

The photo was taken by Guy Wiener.

Earlier, we introduced the interesting creation of laura williams, a British 18-year-old female photographer, who used the concepts of frame in frame and picture in picture, showing quite special visual effects. Coincidentally, Israeli photographer Guy Viner also adopted a similar concept. Through a few simple pre-production and post-production steps, he can also take pictures of people like any door. Take a look at the actual teaching that Guy Venal shared online!

Using frames and post-effects

Use picture frames and post-effects to produce arbitrary visual effects.

To achieve the spatial penetration effect of any door, we must first expect the composition and composition of the picture, so it is very important to plan in advance. Before you begin, please prepare the following materials:

Picture frame or wooden frame; Transparent slides; Scissors; Transparent tape; Marker; Customary camera lens; A sturdy tripod.

All kinds of picture frames and wooden frames

All kinds of picture frames and wooden frames can be used for shooting.

Appendages

There must be no shortage of auxiliary gadgets.

When you start shooting, you must first complete the composition and framing, and then shoot the tripod on the camera. First, please ask the model to stand in the ideal position and take the first photo with a photo frame or wooden frame. Then, don't move the camera, ask Model to leave its original position and take a second empty photo, and the shooting of the photographic material is completed.

Finally, Guy Viner is used for advanced Lightroom post-color matching, and then uses Photoshop to automatically align the layers. After aligning the two photos of the model and the empty scene, he changed the inner area of the picture frame or wooden frame into a transparent layer, so that the empty scene behind him could be displayed. This is almost finished.

Shooting principle

Fix the camera tripod to shoot the photo material, do not move the camera during the process, and you can easily synthesize the perspective effect afterwards.

Draw the approximate position of the photo frame on the screen.

Use transparent slides to track the approximate position of the frame on the camera screen, and then take multiple shots.

If you are more creative and imaginative, you can also use the above basic concepts to create interesting image combinations with more complex layers, and even synthesize the image effects of people and transparent people in the painting. You can try it if you have a chance!

Take three photos of the material.

Turn on the Photoshop automatic alignment layer function to overlay.

After the alignment is completed, the inner area of the frame is manually transparent layer by layer.

Isn't it interesting to synthesize framed portraits?

Spatial architectural effect

If you are familiar with the basic process, you can try to challenge the more complicated space composition.

You can also use the human body as a "frame" to create.
