Basic Stills Camera Work & Composition

Composition:
Photography brings a visual language that is universal in understanding. We must then understand its vocabulary which consists of shapes, textures, patterns, lines, colours, shade of light to dark and sharp to blurry images. Just as we must learn to arrange words in a coherent order in order to make sense when we write or speak, so too must we put visual elements together in an organized manner if our photographs are to convey their meaning clearly and vividly.
Composition means arrangement: the orderly putting together of parts to make a unified whole; composition through a personal, intuitive act. However, there are basic principles that govern the way visual elements behave and interact when you combine them inside the four borders of a photograph. Once we have sharpened our vision and grasped these basic ideas of principles, then we will have the potential for making our photographs more exciting and effective than ever before.


Rule Of Thirds :


  The rule of thirds consists of 4 lines (2 horizontal and 2 vertical) which splt the screen into 9 sections. This  creates four hot spots (Where the lines meet) which are always the most popular places in the frame, and also unconciesly attracts the audience to these 4 hotspots. This is a useful skill to have to create an interesting and well established frame.
