Things to keep in mind when photographing a specific person

For example, if there is a specific person to be photographed at a brass band recital, do you place the person in the center of the video? For solo parts and other shows, the person tends to be shown in a large center of the screen.

However, when you actually shoot it, you end up with a "not very good-looking" image.

The key to composition is the orientation of the subject and the balance between the subject and the instrument.

If you put the person in the center and take a picture from the side, the space on the left and right sides of the screen will be unbalanced.

For example, a piano player is facing the piano, so I tend to take pictures from the side. And if you put the figure in the center, there will be space on the back side.

In this case, it is better to shoot the person in the center but at an angle. It fills up the screen space and creates a three-dimensional effect. In particular, when videographing a performance recital such as an orchestra or brass band, it is necessary to be able to clearly show the movement of "playing an instrument". By shifting the angle, the video will be of higher quality if you can also see your hand.

Another way is to shift the center to the piano side. The screen is filled with people and a piano, and by placing them in a well-balanced manner, you can create a "good composition" and take a realistic image. If you try to fit all the large instruments such as the piano on the screen, the characters will be too small, so balance is important. In the case of a piano, the key to creating a beautiful composition is to focus on the keyboard and capture it on the screen.

Points to note when shooting with "pull" as a whole 1

If you want to take a picture so that you can see the whole picture, check the safety area.

A safety area is a video area where you can watch the video recording without any problem on any display device.

There are two areas of safety areas.

Action-safe

The range of the screen reduced by 90% from the entire top, bottom, left and right. Outside this range may not be seen by the display device.

Title Safety

The range of the screen reduced by 80% from the entire top, bottom, left and right. Character information should be kept within this range.

It is recommended to shoot within a certain margin so that you do not end up with a beautiful shot, but when you show it on TV, it cuts off.

When shooting with a pull, you need to pay attention to the balance between the top and bottom. When you think about balance, you may end up with superfluous things, but if you're not sure what to prioritize, it's better to focus on balance.

If you look closely, even if there are things you don't need, the impression when you look at them at a glance is different. It is important to look for a better composition and be aware of a well-balanced shot.
