The skill of shooting angle

Because the shooting angle is different, the visual effect is also different. I have arranged the shooting angle skills for you and shared them with you!

The choice of shooting direction refers to the change of the camera's position in the horizontal position centered on the subject. Sometimes you can also ask the subject to change the direction to get the shooting effect in different directions. The choice of shooting direction in figure photography mainly includes the following points:

1positive angle

Shooting people in the positive direction can well show the positive characteristics of the subject, and all parts of the face of the person are in an equal and symmetrical position, giving people a sense of security.

2 side angle

When shooting, the camera is on the side of the object to display the side image and line structure of the object. Because shooting in this direction can fully show the profile of the subject, this shooting direction is often used when taking silhouette photos. At the same time, the side shot has strong momentum and directionality, so it is often used when shooting people who are moving at high speed.

3 back angle

In figure photography, shooting from behind the subject is rare, and it is only used in some special circumstances. Back shooting can show the back characteristics of the subject and guide the audience to develop in depth. When choosing the back direction to shoot people, we must pay attention to the characteristics of the subject's back.

4 Front side angle

This shooting direction is the most commonly used in figure photography, because it can not only show the front structure and side structure of the subject, but also well show the edge line of the combination of these two surfaces, so that the image, outline and three-dimensional effect of the subject can be fully expressed. The positions of the characters shot in this direction are not the same in all parts of the picture, so the shadows in the picture are vivid and changeable, and the whole picture is dynamic and obviously directional.

Under the premise of the same shooting direction, changing the photographer's height will also change the perspective relationship of the shooting picture. In figure photography, the following shooting angles often appear due to the change of height.

5? Ping She

Refers to the height of glasses when the subject is upright. The perspective relationship of each part of the scene in the picture shot from the head-up shooting angle conforms to the normal people's visual viewing psychology, and the composition is stable without special changes.

6 ? High overhead

In the close-up shooting of people, if you shoot high notes, it is easy to form a big deformation. When shooting girls, this angle is easy to form a beautiful picture. Melon face? Type effect. For those women with wider faces and fatter faces, you can choose this height to shoot; But for people who are thin and bald and have a big face and a small face, this angle is not suitable. When taking a full-length photo, generally don't shoot from this angle.

Using low-angle portraits of characters can show the tall image of the subject and purify the background. Taking a full-length photo of a character can show the slender legs of the subject. People with big faces should not take a positive angle to avoid exposing their shortcomings too much.
