Composition Techniques


There are 14 different types of composition techniques. The main four are rule of thirds, framing unusual angles, and leading lines. Rule of thirds is when a photographer uses imaginary lines and places the points of interest on the lines. So the main subject therefore is off center. Using the rule of thirds adds interest to the shot. Framing is when you use a natural surrounding to frame your shot to make it more interesting. Unusual angles is when you shoot from a different angle like from below and shooting up or above and shooting down. Lastly, leading lines is when you use natural surroundings and have some sort of lines leading to your main subject.

Spherical Panoramas

Image
These are my two spherical panoramas that I created. First I had to take two different sets of 10 -15 images in a 360 degree rotation with a 10-15% overlap. The images were then edited using Adobe Camera Raw and compiled into a panoramic image using PhotoShop`s PhotoMerge plugin. Next, the rectangular 360 degree panorama was resized to be square and filtered using Polar Coordinates. Lastly, the final spherical panoramas were selected using the elliptical marque and feathered by refining the edge. A black or white background was applied before saving the finished composite image.

A sequence is a series of 3 camera shots that are usually following the rule of wide, medium, close, or extreme close. Each shot is usually about 10 seconds each. Sequencing also is a great way of showing an action. Sequencing also shows a lot more in a shorter amount of time so you can add more things.
