Can I just keep the upper body for the bust? Is the face close-up just the face? Portrait shooting and post-cutting is not so simple!

The wrong cropping of portrait photos will make the photos look weird, disproportionate and aesthetic at all.

According to the scene, portraits can be divided into full-body portraits (panorama), nine-point portraits, seven-minute portraits (mid-shot), bust (close-up) and close-ups. We can see that different scene characters appear differently in the picture, but we cannot adjust them literally during shooting and post-cutting:

1. Panoramic portrait is that the whole body of the character appears in the picture, usually we have to leave some space in the upper and lower parts of the character (above the head and feet) to avoid a sense of pressure, leaving more space above will look more comfortable (not absolute).

two。 A nine-point portrait is the part above the middle of the calf that appears in the picture, also known as a "small full-body photo". This proportion can hide the height.

Wrong cutting method: cut from ankle

The right way to cut: cut from the middle of the calf, but be careful not to cut from the ankle, only removing the foot will look awkward and will not have the original effect.

3. The seven-point portrait has a strong sense of narrative, and it is also very suitable for the performance of the character's upper body, but it should be noted that it should not be cut from the character's knee, otherwise it will make the character look like a "50-50". No matter how good-looking the figure is, it will feel incongruous.

Wrong cutting method: cut at the knee

Correct cropping method: select the upper part of the thigh to cut. In this scene, you can choose the upper part of the thigh, or later cut the upward part of the thigh.

4. The five-cent portrait is not literally divided into two parts: the upper body and the legs. if you cut it directly in the crotch of the character, it will look very long and the proportion will look very strange.

Wrong cutting method: character crotch

Correct cutting method: when cutting the waist of the character, you can choose the part above the waist, which will not affect the proportion but also highlight the expression and hand movements of the character.

5. Close-up characters often refer to facial close-ups, but this does not mean that only the face is preserved in the photo. Imagine that there is only one head in the picture. Can it look good?

Wrong cut method: neck

Correct cropping method: keep a certain amount of shoulder when we take a close-up, we should keep both face and neck, but also keep a certain amount of shoulder, which will make the photo look more harmonious and highlight facial features.
