Notes On Composition

  • Flat composition is bad, diagonals can take you into the frame.
  • Look for frames within the frame, foreground & background.
  • Get perspective right. Know what lens does what. (telephoto lens & wide angle lens). Different perspective results in a different story.  
  • Your in control of what the camera sees. The camera does not show the truth, you control the truth. 
  • You can have a scene but by changing lens, angle, lighting ect... you can change the meaning of the scene to any way you wish. 
Important elements of good composition;
  • Focus 
  • Thirds
  • Looking room
  • Lead in lines
  • Frames within the frames
