The next theme which you will be exploring relates to portraiture. Whilst lots of the compositional guidelines remain the same in portraiture as they are in Still Life, there are extra tips and tricks to learn in order to ensure that your portraits are successful. Therefore, your task over the Christmas Holidays is to learn more about composition within portraiture and take some of your own portraits to put this knowledge in to practise.
Task 1:
Watch the videos to learn more about how composition works when taking portrait photographs. Some of the tips included in the second video relate to editing techniques, and whilst I do not expect you to edit these photographs (but please do, if you would like to - we will explore editing in more depth during your next project), they are still important to understand and will help you as you move forward. |
