The landscape of figure photography composition

Lead; Composition comes from painting, which refers to the layout and composition of the picture. Photography also needs composition, which refers to the whole process from framing to photo cutting. The composition of figure photography is mainly to show the shape of the figure in the photographic picture, and to use all modeling factors to shape the figure and form a perfect picture as much as possible. How to take a well-composed photo at 1 I'll go and have a look with you.

Section 1 Scenery of Photographic Images

Scenery refers to the range displayed in the photographic picture. Photographic scenes are divided into five categories: distant view, panoramic view, middle view, close-up view and close-up. There are two factors that affect the scene. First of all, the distance between the camera and the object affects the scene. The second is the focal length of the lens, and the change of focal length also affects the scene.

I. Foresight, panorama, middle scene, close-up and close-up.

1, visual

The scope of the picture is grand and the scene is broad and far-reaching, which shows the overall structure of the scene. The foreground picture generally has no obvious subject, and does not show the details of the scene, but shows the momentum of the scene. Perspective is generally not used in figure photography.

2. Panoramic painting

The performance range of the picture is smaller than that of the vision, showing the whole picture of the subject and its environment, and setting off the subject and object through the environmental atmosphere. Panorama is still very imposing, full of pictures and clear priorities. In figure photography, panoramic pictures are sometimes used to represent a large number of scenes.

3. Mid-range shooting

The framing range of the picture is further reduced, which greatly reduces the environment. The middle scene is centered on the main object, and often shows the events and action plots in which the main characters participate, the relationship between people and things, and wins by plot.

4. Close shot

The picture highlights the characteristics of the subject, omits the environment or blurs the environment, and the picture is very concise. The main image of the close-up picture is full, distinctive, delicate and vivid.

5. Close-up shot

The picture only shows the part of the main object, and makes this part full of the picture, emphasizing the local characteristics of the main object. Close-up pictures show the subject more densely, replacing complexity with simplicity and being more vivid with ten generations.

Second, the head, bust, bust, full-length portrait

1, avatar

The picture focuses on the head of the person, so that the facial image of the subject basically occupies the whole picture, which is a close-up of the face. An avatar can include a character's neck, collar and a small amount of chest, but the key point is to show the character's face. Avatar can strengthen and highlight the five senses of a character, be close to the spirit of the character, and move people with spirit.

2. Chest

The picture contains the shoulders and chest of the character, but the body part generally does not exceed the waist, and the environment only accounts for a small part of the picture. The bust also highlights the face of the character and pays attention to the expression, but sometimes it also shows the hand movements of the character.

3. Big bust

The figure can show the figure's body below the waist and above the knee, and the hand can be photographed all over, so there are more environments. The posture of the bust changes a lot, which helps to make the characters more vivid.

4. Full-length portrait

The picture can show the whole picture of the characters. In the open environmental space, not only the actions of the characters can be fully displayed, but also the characteristics of the environment can be fully explained. The expression and body language of the full-length portrait are helpful to express the character.
