How to use your mobile phone to make photos look like blockbusters?

Finally, at the urging of my friends, I am ready to share some of my daily photography and P-picture experiences. I am not a professional photographer. I just record what I see and want to record from my own perspective, and use my own eyes to adjust the color. In fact, cameras and mobile phones are just tools. The real composition and color come from your soul. ..(Pretend to gain ten pounds)... Well, it comes from your brain.

After all, there are very few days when I go out with a SLR, and most of my friends now, except for professional photography enthusiasts, still choose to use mobile phones. Today I will share with you the photo processing app that I usually use. I hope You can use it (sincere face).

First take a screenshot so that everyone can see it clearly. There are many P-chart drawing software of this kind. Let’s pick a few commonly used ones and introduce them in detail.

Snapseed

This is probably the most commonly used one. I still like it after using it for several years. It is generally used to adjust landscape photos and handles the brightness and saturation better. , restore the reality, and what I like most is that it will not automatically reduce the size of the picture format and affect the clarity like Meitu Xiuxiu.

For example, below is a picture of Tsim Sha Tsui on a cloudy day. The sea water is colored, but due to light problems, the color is darker. The whole picture looks very gray and has no sense of hierarchy.

Click the brush in the lower right corner to start editing. The English version is used here, and the Chinese version is the same. The top is the tool, and the bottom is the filter. Under normal circumstances, only the adjustments in the first column of the tool are used. Tools, click on the picture and an adjustment menu for brightness, contrast, atmosphere, saturation, highlights, shadows and warm tones will appear. Swipe left or right to adjust various parameters.

As far as landscapes are concerned, after the photo has been color corrected for several times, you can use the HDR filter below to increase grain and make the picture more textured, but remember that the parameters must be lowered, otherwise there will be distortion. In fact, every tool in it has its own characteristics. It depends on how you compose and adjust the picture.

The effect after adjustment: the colors are primary and secondary, and the contrast is more obvious. The HDR filter adds some grain and also increases the texture of the photo.

Another photo of sunny Tsim Sha Tsui. I hesitated because the light was too strong, but the photos taken with my mobile phone were still gray. In fact, the blue sea and blue sky in Tsim Sha Tsui that day were very beautiful, so I used Snapseed to restore the colors at that time. Below are the original pictures and renderings.

VSCO

It is also the most commonly used photo editing app. There are many filters, but you may see that many filters need to be purchased. Let me tell you a little secret. There are only five treasures above! piece! money! Buy all the filters! From now on, you will never be short of filters and suffer from filter selection phobia.

These filters have been downloaded. Generally, I will use VSCO to process some photos with people, or adjust a set of pictures to a unified tone.

This is a set of photos that my aunt took with her mobile phone in Sheung Wan, Hong Kong. The color correction steps are: filter S1, brightness +2, saturation -3, color temperature -6, hue +1, fade +4. The comparison with VSCO is that after you adjust one picture, you can copy the filter you adjusted to other photos, so that the tone of a group of photos will be the same, which saves a lot of trouble.

These two are the most commonly used by Aunt CC. The following ones all have basic image dimming, color adjustment and filter functions, but each has its own characteristics.

LINE camera

Produced by LINE, the p-picture function and filters are very different from other software. I like using this because it contains various Brown, Cony and other LINE characters. stickers, you can also draw various expressions and stickers yourself and put them on the photos, which is very cute. In addition, LINE camera's camera is very cute. You can add color to your photos according to your personal preferences. This is not a photo.

Butter Camera

I feel that this app is more suitable for young and fresh girls. The filters are Japanese-style. You can also add white borders to photos. The stickers are also white and gray simple drawings. , there are also many fonts, with a fresh forest style.

Prisma

If you are tired of using ordinary filters, let’s try something different. The filter effect of this app is a bit unusual. It may turn your photos into a Post-modernist paintings can also turn your photos into impressionist paintings. I really like them and think they are very special. This is a photo of an ordinary Japanese street. After adding filters, it looks more like a painting. The effects of each filter in this app are very different. Friends who like art can download it and give it a try.

MOLDIV

This app also has a powerful filter function, and you can add starry sky, raindrops, light and shadow effects to photos, nitrogen, you will see at the top, these need to be purchased , but the all-purpose treasure can still get all the filters within five yuan, Ma Dad~

Toast

It used to be called Photo Artist, but I don’t know when it changed its name. Now, I feel like the signs of imitating MOLDIV are getting stronger and stronger. The functions of this one are similar to MOLDIV. It may have less filter effects, but it’s free, and it has some small stickers which are also good.

One of my favorite features is that you can turn a photo into black and white, and then use your hands to smudge out the parts you want to highlight, and the original color will be restored.

Instagram

Although this is a social software, and it can only be used in mainland China after circumventing the wall, but I like its filters very much. Although there are so many filters in this world There are thousands of them, but for some reason I just think its filters are good-looking. Don’t worry, you don’t have to go through the firewall. You can also use its filters, which can instantly make your photos look better.

Here is a little tip for friends who are too lazy to take pictures in the late stage of cancer and use iPhone: Open your camera, click on the three circles in the lower right corner, and use the chrome filter on the right side of the middle to directly Take photos and there will be surprises.

Beautiful women need good skin to apply makeup, and the same goes for using filters for photos. No matter how good the filter is, it will be useless. Although you use a mobile phone, what you ultimately need when taking photos is the composition and lighting in the early stage. , and then for post-retouching, you can also produce good works when taking photos with your mobile phone.

I will explore more useful and interesting apps to share with you. Encouragement and criticism are welcome.
