Below is the first of two tutorials I made for a class generosity performance piece:
Hello Ladies and Gentlemen of 4D intermedia!
Welcome to the first filmmaking tutorial. This tutorial will focus on the importance of framing. Creating a impactful image with a camera is based almost entirely on what you choose to include or exclude from the frame of your camera. My number one piece of advice is to look at line and space in your frame. If any line is too close to the edge of the frame without leaving space for separation, you get a feeling of a linear tangent, which creates a disorganized looking frame. In the below examples look at the right side of the couch, and the bottom edge of the bench in front of the subject. In the above photograph, we see an example of effective framing. There is enough space bellow the bench to create separation, and the side of the couch has been intentionally cut out. Whereas, the bottom one creates a feeling of the space closing in, and does not effectively draw your attention to the subject. Main advice, look at the edges of your frame, and create separation with lines or very intentional direction of an object! Thanks and more to come!
