What do you mean by high-profile, low-key, hard-key and soft-key photography?

The hue of photos is mainly white, which generally accounts for 75% to 95%. The light used in high-profile photos is generally soft and has no strong directivity. Make the film denser. In other words, instead of leaving unnecessary gray on the screen, it is better to lose several layers of high brightness.

High-profile photos are famous for their bright colors, simple lines and bright atmosphere.

2, low-key:

Black tone occupies a large area on the photo screen, while white tone occupies a small area, and the tone of the whole picture is thick and deep.

3. Strong tone:

There is a strong contrast between light and shade and color in the picture, and there is no hierarchical transition in the middle. The colors of the scene are mostly primary colors, and transition colors and complementary colors are seldom used.

Hard-tuned pictures often correspond to people's emotions such as nervousness, adventure and terror. Suitable for expressing the atmosphere of war terror, but also suitable for expressing rough and unrestrained emotions.

4. Soft tunes:

In the picture, the light and shade contrast between the light receiving surface and the backlight surface is soft, the color contrast is harmonious and the contrast is small. Most of the scene colors are complementary transition colors, and the transition layers in the middle of the soft tone picture are rich, with small level difference and delicate texture.

Extended data:

1. In order to make photos conform to real life, the tone of low-key photos must be determined according to the characteristics of the subject. For example, the close-up of coal miners and the workers in front of the raging steelmaking furnace can be expressed in a low-key way, which can make the emotions of the characters in the picture deep, vigorous, melancholy and heavy, and get a deeper portrayal.

2, low-key photos should choose a black background, so that the main body is completely lined with black tones.

Under the background of a small area of white and a large area of black, the outlines of the main characters in the picture, facial features full of personality and other decorations will be separated from the background under the action of light, so that the spiritual temperament of the characters in the picture can be fully expressed.

3. The use of low-key photos determines the success or failure of low-key photos. Low-key photos mostly use large side light and side backlight, highlighting a part of the subject's five senses and a part with obvious personality characteristics.
