Introduction to photographic prose

Photographic prose is a new style, which is composed of photography and words, and its aesthetic feature is the visual nature of photography. A comprehensive art form that is expressed by one or several photographic pictures, explained or described by words, vividly creates the world, shapes characters and expresses feelings. Such as radio dramas, TV sketches, TV movies, etc. The concept of photographic literature was put forward in the early 1990s. In less than twenty years, photographic literature has made great progress. This is related to the characteristics of the times: new media technology and photocopying technology have laid a material foundation for the development of photographic literature and promoted the interactive marriage of photos and words; With the accelerated pace of modern life, when people read newspapers and periodicals, they often see titles and photos in supplements, which urges newspapers and periodicals to use photos outside words to attract readers' attention; The arrival of the so-called "era of reading pictures" has also prompted literature and photos to be more closely combined. Of course, creating artistic images and reflecting the similarities and differences of social life is the artistic basis for their "marriage".
