What is the composition method of Jiugongge?

Jiugongge composition, also known as tic-tac-toe composition, actually belongs to a form of golden section.

It is to divide the picture into nine blocks on average, and arrange the themes at any point in the four corners of the central block. In fact, these points are in line with the "golden section law" and are the best locations. Of course, balance, contrast and other factors should also be considered.

This composition can present changes and movements, and the picture is full of vitality. These four points also have different visual senses. The top two points are more energetic than the bottom, and the left side is stronger than the right side. Pay attention to the problem of visual balance.

Composition tone

The color tone of the photographic picture is the main body, which consists of the color tone between the light receiving surface and the backlight surface irradiated by the light source and the overall color tone generated by the light of the whole picture. Under the natural light source (sun), different light receiving surfaces and light and shade will be produced. Therefore, the color tone is directional, which can be generally divided into: front light, side light and backlight.

Directional effect can also be produced under artificial light source, which is mainly the result of lighting application. Tone is the main factor to reflect the form of the picture, and it is also the basis of the formal beauty of photographic composition.

Shade can be understood from the perspective of the difference between photography and painting. The difference between them is that painting is to express the author's aesthetic consciousness and emotion by painting on canvas with pigments and brushes through people's subjective consciousness and skills. Photography is to directly capture realistic images with a camera; Images are recorded through the photosensitive medium carried by the camera, and the photographer himself embodies aesthetic consciousness and emotion through the process of selecting images.
