Problem description:

My brother is getting married, and I want to film his wedding. What problems should we pay attention to? How can I take a good photo? Ask for advice! ! ! ! ! !

Analysis:

1. Grasp the theme of shooting.

Every time we press the video button, we have to look around to see if the picture taken in the viewfinder is what we need-that is, composition. One of the mistakes that novices often make in camera shooting is that they like to use the perspective and put too much background in the picture, which leads to the confusion between primary and secondary. I can't put it down when I see flowers and plants in my eyes. I can't wait to film them all, for fear that something is missing, and the protagonist becomes an ornament of flowers and plants, which looks like a landscape film. You should use close-ups or even close-ups to highlight the protagonist and make the rich expressions of the characters clearly visible. For example, when filming children to watch exhibitions, close-ups or even close-ups should be used to express children's movements and expressions, such as smiling and staring.

2. Grasp the materials in the spatio-temporal information set.

Due to the specification and time limit of plane frame, a painting or a shot will disappear on the screen in a short time, and the frame is small, so the audience can't appreciate it repeatedly like watching art works and photography works. Therefore, the central content and image subject of each picture must be eye-catching, and the picture modeling performance and structural arrangement should be concise and clear, so that the audience can see the image at a glance and understand the content in the picture at one time. This requires the photographer to skillfully configure the relative positions of foreground and background, subject and companion in the picture, and master the efforts of simplifying the complex and restraining the complex in visual expression, instead of influencing and interfering with the audience's audio-visual experience with messy and complicated pictures full of "visual noise".

3. The material for shooting people's expressions

When shooting family images, we should pay attention to the shooting of characters' demeanor. The family is happy and immersed in a happy and peaceful atmosphere. At this time, we should pay attention to expressing rich facial expressions and expressions through close-ups such as the eyes, mouth, viewpoint and line of sight of the characters. For example, if the mother is watching the child eat, the child's satisfied expression and the mother's concerned eyes, then we should pay attention to the shooting of his expression. As shown in figure 2. When shooting a person, it is advisable to shoot the appearance characteristics of the person from the side to highlight the profile of the face. When taking pictures of people, the middle scene, close-up scene and Ping She are preferred. Mid shot and close shot can make the audience see the facial expression and subtle movements of the subject clearly, while flat shot can show the shape of the subject more completely. Birthday, Chinese New Year, wedding, travel and other scenes have different methods of shooting people. Pay attention to observation at ordinary times and grasp it carefully when shooting.

4, capture the material of the event * * *.

In some daily activities, you will often encounter some * * * scenes, so don't miss them. For example, when shooting a wedding, the bride and groom kiss warmly; When shooting birthday activities and blowing out candles, lively scenes are indispensable image elements. When shooting the grand ceremony, we should be sensitive to the appearance of dramatic scenes and have the ability to capture them quickly. We should carefully observe everyone who is full of emotions, highlight every gesture, record every affectionate word, focus our emotions on the camera and present a colorful life feast. In addition, ensure the integrity of its content when shooting. On the one hand, the so-called content integrity refers to maintaining the coherence of character behavior, live sound and language in the picture of a scene. Generally, the long lens is used to shoot, that is, from the start to the shutdown in one go, and the whole process is completely recorded, so that the audience has an immersive feeling.

5. Choose a scene with harmonious colors.

If it is not handled properly in the camera operation and shooting process, it will easily lead to the error of color reproduction of the picture and give the audience an unrealistic visual acceptance. Because the camera does not have the visual adaptability of human eyes, its mechanism instinctively records the color temperature change of light and the color deviation of objects, which will cause irreparable errors. For example, improper adjustment of white balance will make the picture blue or red. Therefore, when the color temperature of the light source changes or mixes the color temperature light source, special attention should be paid to the color temperature control and the corresponding operation of the camera. As shown in figure 3. For another example, automatic aperture has many advantages, but it can also cause bad effects: if a person wearing light-colored clothes suddenly enters the picture when shooting a conversation scene, the feedback of the camera's electrical signal immediately makes the motor rotate, narrowing the aperture, which is reflected in the sudden darkening of the picture, as if the ambient brightness in the picture suddenly darkens, affecting the artistic effect of the picture.

6. Pay attention to the recording of actual sound.

The backward concept of the separation of sound and picture is out of date, but how to play the role and effect of real sound in the picture is still a subject worth studying. Generally speaking, the actual sound includes many kinds of sounds and action effects, such as character live sound, environmental sound, live sound and so on. Images in life contain sound. Actual sound can play an important role in conveying and increasing picture information, setting off atmosphere and expressing environmental characteristics. It is a work link that needs to be dealt with seriously in TV camera shooting. Especially in the news documentary program, if the actual sound is separated from the recorded TV picture, it can only be an incomplete and untrue picture record. For news documentary programs, real voice is one of the important and expressive creative means. To be an excellent cameraman, we must understand and master the basic contents of recording technology and sound processing technology, not only to be a qualified cameraman, but also to be a qualified sound recorder.
