Detailed explanation of ten composition methods

Ten synthetic methods are detailed as follows:

1. Triangular composition (Jiugongge composition), also known as Jiugongge composition, is a common and simple composition method. There are generally two horizontal lines and two vertical lines to divide the picture equally. When in use, the main body is placed on the four intersections of the line or on the line. Simple operation, vivid performance and concise picture. Many cameras are directly equipped with this kind of composition auxiliary line, which is widely used, especially in landscape and portrait.

2, symmetrical composition, symmetrical composition has the characteristics of up and down symmetry, left and right symmetry and so on. , and has the characteristics of balance and stability. Show the design balance and stability of architecture in architectural photography. It is widely used in specular reflection to express the characteristics of aesthetic mood and picture balance. Symmetrical composition is mostly used in architecture, reflection shooting and so on.

3. Frame composition is to choose a frame as the foreground of our picture, guide the audience's attention to our subject and highlight the subject. Frame composition will form a sense of depth, make the picture more stereoscopic and intuitive, have more visual impact, and also make the subject echo with the environment. Doors and windows, leaf gaps, nets, etc. Often used as a framework.

4, the center composition, the center composition is very simple, that is, the main body is placed in the center of the picture, and novices often use it, which is the most stable composition. You can start with this composition method, and then slowly add other composition methods. Central composition is a good way to use in many cases, but many themes may lack new ideas, so we should learn to use a variety of composition methods. Central composition is suitable for shooting buildings or objects with symmetrical centers.

5. Guiding line composition is to guide the audience's line of sight through lines and attract the audience's attention to the main body of the picture. The guide line is not necessarily a specific line. In real life, roads, rivers, whole rows of trees and even people's eyes can be used as guiding lines, as long as there is a certain linear relationship, it is OK. Guiding line composition can shoot many subjects, mainly playing the role of guiding sight, such as roads, bridges, river buildings and so on. And pay more attention to artistic conception and visual impact.

6, diagonal and triangle, diagonal composition of the picture has dynamic tension, more lively. Triangle composition will increase the stability of the picture, and triangle composition elements are often built into the picture, especially in portrait photography. Mostly used to shoot buildings, peaks, plant branches, people and so on.

7. Minimalist composition and blank space. Photography is the art of subtraction. We constantly eliminate objects that have little to do with the subject, making our picture more concise, making it easier to see the subject clearly, highlighting the subject and showing visual impact. In minimalist composition, the picture is often left blank, that is, it saves clutter and creates a negative space, so that the audience can focus on the main body, and at the same time, the minimalist picture will make people more comfortable and aesthetic.

8. Balanced composition, our central composition pays more attention to the subject. Balanced composition is to keep the balance of the picture, make the subject echo the background, make the picture more balanced, and increase the depth and three-dimensional sense of the picture. Give people a sense of satisfaction, perfect picture structure, clever arrangement and balanced correspondence. It is often used for moonlit nights, water, night scenes, news and other topics.

9. Golden Triangle composition. The composition of Golden Triangle is very similar to that of Trigonometry. The straight line starts from the four corners of the picture and forms two right triangles on the left and right sides. Then put the elements of the picture in these intersecting places.

10, golden spiral composition, we divide our camera picture into a certain proportion, and then subdivide it continuously, and we will get a curve. This is the golden spiral composition, such as the famous painting Mona Lisa, which we are all familiar with.
