What does a broken face mean in photography?

Broken face is a technique to intentionally change the plane state of elements in photography.

Broken face in photography means that the photographer intentionally changes the posture of the subject in the process of shooting, so that all parts of his body are no longer in the same plane, but form multiple faces. This technique can increase the three-dimensional sense and movement of photos and make the picture more vivid and interesting. The disfigurement can be divided into head disfigurement, chest disfigurement and foot disfigurement. For example, a broken head can be achieved by tilting the head to one side, rotating the chest to one side or drawing a circle around one leg with the other leg as the center of gravity. By using face-breaking technology, photographers can create more artistic and expressive photo effects, attract the attention of the audience and convey specific emotions or artistic conception.
