The difference between sample and film

The differences are as follows:

A sample is an internally satisfactory film after review and modification, which is sent to customers for preview, usually with watermark. If the samples are satisfactory, the next step will be to deliver them in batches.

Sample is a noun, which refers to the film to be modified provided by the producer to Party A. A film is a finished film.

Wedding sample

The photos of professional models taken by skilled photographers are called proofs. There are two kinds of samples:

The first type: a powerful company.

A powerful photography company invites its own models to take wedding photos, and it can also be used as samples for guests to enjoy, which can represent the photographer and makeup artist of this photography company with good strength and high level. Because actors and models are very professional, male and female models can be changed at any time and can be freely combined into the best shooting partner.

Therefore, the samples seen by customers are far from ordinary guest films. However, it is impossible for ordinary people to take wedding photos, and the lack of expressiveness between them will also bring about differences in effect. From this point of view, samples and guest films are very different. But if a photography company can independently shoot better proofs that other artists can't do, it is also very powerful.

The second type: professional sample shooting.

There are such a small group of high-level photographers and makeup artists in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Chinese mainland. They choose some professionally trained models to shoot wedding samples for a living. These photographers only shoot a few times a year, a few themes. Each theme presents the popular trend of that year. Their designated manufacturers provide fashionable and unique props such as clothes, backgrounds and headdresses.

The sample incorporates aesthetic and fashionable elements from props, lighting, clothing collocation, shooting technology and other aspects. A set of samples can be sold to thousands of photo studios and photo studios nationwide at one time.

Photographers buy samples, headdresses and props used in samples in order to attract customers. When you come to the store for consultation, the merchant immediately takes out the samples, clothes and props you bought for your reference, claiming that they are original. In this way, they can hire low-level photographers, makeup artists or students to show the high-level photography skills in the store.

For merchants, such samples are fashionable, cheap and effective. This behavior has led to the similar photos displayed by most photographers today. In fact, photographers and makeup artists who shoot businesses are not so high-level and can't shoot such beautiful effects and feelings, which is why the same scene props can't shoot the effects that ordinary customers want to achieve.
