The mode of photography thinking from the perspective of defamiliarization

When we are looking at the photo, we are thinking about "how this photo was taken", "I know what technology it used and I can make it", "What tools were used to adjust the film later" and "How does light work?" However, deep down, I think the deep reason why this film is good is that it is unusual, that is, unfamiliar, both technically and technically.

I summed up my own underlying logic in the process of taking pictures, and found that there is only one thing (there may be others in the future), that is, I am unfamiliar and the photos I took are different. This is not necessarily technology, but a way of thinking. Please allow me to take some photos in an assembly line as an example.

This is a random photo taken when crossing the street. Turn the angle of view, cut off the objects that should be left behind, and make the red light and the green light unfamiliar. When the audience sees it, he will at least take another look.

There is no masking in the later stage of this film, but it seems to have been done. The worker put half his body into the ceiling to repair things. Every time I look at it, I find this picture very strange and attractive. What the worker saw was very imaginative.

The holes of fire hydrants can be seen everywhere, and it is also interesting for people to pass by.

I have used this technique in many movies. This technology is widely used in movies. In the picture above, the tail of the truck occupies 80% of the screen. Although passers-by only missed a little, it was conspicuous, and the oppressive feeling and impact of the picture were presented.

A little girl is holding an umbrella in the snow with two umbrellas beside her. It is not known whether she is waiting. The overall color is uniform, decorated with green, blue and little red. In fact, the cut part of the picture is a large group of people in the distance, but the one left after the cut makes the picture breathable and has a freehand atmosphere.

When you take the bus, the building outside scatters blue light, giving the people in the front seat a wonderful texture. It is also an unusual picture, but it is unfamiliar.

If you don't look at the ship carefully, it will increase the suspense of the picture.

Some unforgettable street shooting works also use this concept.

I like this one better. The bright lighting atmosphere and people's movements have reached the ideal range.

In other words, the strange perspective is the initial experience. Life is always like this, so there are not so many new experiences. One of the reasons why we like photos must be that we have resonated with the photographer and gained different experiences.

When you do something for the first time, you are clumsy, happy and unforgettable. When you hold a camera and find a picture that makes you happy, no matter how many times you meet it, it's like meeting a stranger for the first time. That's why life is not always so boring.
