In the twinkling of an eye, it is the graduation season again. Before leaving school, it is natural to take pictures with familiar places and familiar people in the school.

A few years ago, due to special reasons, many graduates could not even take a group photo. This year, we can't miss it.

So here are some simple and practical skills for shooting graduation anniversary photos, both mobile phones and cameras:

1. Graduation anniversary photos are naturally inseparable from the campus environment, and it is easy to take good-looking photos in these places on campus:

(1) the landmark buildings of the school there are generally landmark buildings in the school, such as towers, plaques, teaching buildings and so on. These places can better reflect the characteristics of the school and are suitable for taking group photos.

If you want to use these iconic buildings as a background, plain buildings will look better, while the brown in the picture above is more classical and academic.

(2) the playground-the green lawn looks very youthful and is suitable for taking commemorative photos in the early morning or evening when the light is soft.

If there are few people on the playground, you can try to make the proportion of the characters in the picture smaller, which can not only show the whole picture of the playground, but also show a relaxed and lively atmosphere.

The playground runway is also a good shooting environment, and the line on the runway is very suitable for the guide of the picture. When shooting, you can try to use a lower angle to find a concise background and avoid the crowd, so that you can take a feel picture.

The grandstand is also very suitable for taking photos, whether it is a large table or rows of seats, they all have a sense of regularity and lines, whether they are taken from the front or guided by lines from the side, as long as they can ensure that they are horizontal and vertical, they can get good photos.

The characters can also account for a smaller proportion when shooting, because the background is simple and regular, and it will not dominate the subject.

During the blue time in the evening (within half an hour or so after sunset), we can try to turn on the flash to make the characters account for a larger proportion and make the photos feel good.

(3) there are usually many stairs in the school, and these stairs are also very suitable for shooting environment.

The expression of the indoor staircase is general, we can pay more attention to the outer staircase of the building (semi-closed open staircase). When the character is on the staircase, you will get a good picture from the side of the staircase.

On the landing of the stairs or on the rooftop, it is also very suitable for shooting, and it can also be photographed with distant scenery.

(4) there are very long corridors in the teaching buildings and dormitory buildings of the corridor school. these corridors are also very suitable for shooting, especially when shooting from one end of the corridor to the other, the strong sense of perspective will have a strong visual impact. it's also very suitable for character shooting.

What you need to pay attention to when shooting in the corridor is that when there are few people, you can also pay attention to the light, use the light outside the corridor window to make up the light, and shoot when the character passes through the place where the light shines in.

If the corridor is east-west, backlighting is a beautiful scene when the sun shines directly into the corridor from one end in the morning or evening.

(5) the classroom is also a very suitable place to shoot. When the light is soft in the morning and evening, the window of the classroom is very suitable for shooting. If there is a breeze blowing or the sun can shine into the classroom, it will feel more.

Characters in the classroom window, shooting from the outside is also very youthful.

two。 Generally speaking, the shooting style of graduation anniversary photos is like the pursuit of a feeling of youth and sunshine. Japanese style blues or green tone is very suitable, and it looks good with school scenes or bachelor's clothes.

This style is relatively late, you can remember these important operations:

(1) to ensure that the photo is exposed, it can be slightly brightened on the basis of normal exposure.

(2) use the curve tool to increase the shadow.

(3) significantly reduce the contrast, increase the shadows and black levels (make the photos feel more empty, and the dark areas look less clean)

(4) the color temperature is slightly closer to the cool color, and the brightness of the cool color can be increased appropriately.

Basically through the above operation, you can get close to the Japanese style photos, when shooting, choose a simple, plain background to use this style will be more beautiful.

3. Several special styles and skills (1) the most indispensable thing in the school is people. When people come and go, the fixed position of the characters is exposed for a long time, so that the main characters remain still, and you will get a clear picture of the main characters and virtual background characters.

(2) Light painting can leave the track of light. We can use a small flashlight or a mobile phone flash for creative painting or writing, and then keep the main character still during the long exposure. You get a picture of a person surrounded by light painting.

(3) dislocation photos make use of the characteristics of large and small, grasp the angle, you can get interesting dislocation photos, between students or between characters and buildings using interesting angles to take pictures, you can also get very interesting photos.
