How to take photos at a meeting or event?

1, empty mirror shooting: Don't forget to shoot the empty mirrors in the venue and all areas of the venue after the scene. Including the venue (exposure should be subject to the main body of the venue, such as the stage, etc.). ), the sign-in desk at the gate, banners and hydrogen balloons will also be arranged outside the venue for some large-scale conference activities, as well as special details (venue decoration), such as trophies and awards.

2. Shooting of main characters before the meeting: Before the event, we must communicate with the organizer and the person in charge of the organizer to determine the main points of shooting characters (including the leader of the organizer and the main guests invited, etc.). ), and record the conversation scenes of the main leaders or important guests, including greetings, exchanging business cards, etc., and try to explain the meeting place and environment in combination with the background furnishings.

3. Shooting during the event:

A. Shooting of leaders' speeches: If conditions permit, try to shoot as close as possible. In this way, information such as banners and projections reflecting the contents of the meeting can be photographed in the picture. The shooting time needs to be mastered by the photographer. Generally, when the speaker looks up and makes eye contact with the participants, pressing the shutter can make the speaker look more vivid. Some leaders don't look up to communicate from beginning to end, so the speaker usually has a chance to look up at the beginning and end of the speech. But just to be on the safe side, you must take a few pictures when you bow your head, so as not to miss the content. The shooting angle should generally be the same height as the speaker, try not to shoot with elevation angle or depression angle, and keep an angle of about 45 degrees with the speaker;

B. venue shooting: the shooting of the rostrum must have a panoramic view and a close-up of a single person. The background of the rostrum is generally dark. Try to use the exposure value photometric data of the face. Don't cover the face with a microphone and a water cup. If necessary, use a certain angle. In addition, the front row of the venue is generally an important participant, so it is necessary to shoot the venue from the left and right directions. Finally, we need to take a panoramic view of the site. The general shooting position is one in the left, middle and right positions in the backcourt. Exposure value should also be based on the photometric value of the podium.

C. Activity shooting: Be sure to pay attention to the activities of major leaders and important participants, and give consideration to other participants. Try to combine the characters with the background that can express the theme of the activity. When people involved in the activity are walking, they should try to go to the front to shoot, instead of following. I would also like to remind you that if the photos are exposed, I would rather owe them than go too far.
