Tripartite composition is one of the most classic composition methods, it is not only suitable for most scenes, but also can be matched with other compositions.

Although it is simple and easy to use, it is not a universal formula. Here are a few small details to pay attention to:

1. Three-part composition and "well-zigzag" three-part composition is to divide the picture into three uniform parts, which can be upper, middle, lower, left, middle, right, or even diagonal, because this division is closer to the golden section proportion. it looks less rigid and more comfortable, so it is a basic and easy-to-use composition.

"upper, middle and lower" three-part composition

The "left, middle and right" tripartite composition "well character lattice" is the intersection of horizontal and vertical tripartite lines, which is similar to the structure of "well" in the picture.

The four intersections formed in the picture can be simply regarded as "golden section points" or "visual points of interest". The arrangement of subjects in these four points will often make the composition more aesthetic.

When we turn on the "grid" of a camera or mobile phone, it usually presents this structure, which is to assist us in composition.

two。 How to use tripartite composition? When shooting, we usually put the dividing line in the picture near the three-point line, for example, when we shoot in lakes and seaside, we can arrange the horizontal plane on the three-point line.

The sea level is roughly level with the lower third line of the picture, the horizon, railings, walls, etc., can also be arranged in this way, this kind of composition may not make the photo very distinctive and attractive, but it can guarantee that there will be no major mistakes.

The same is true in the vertical direction, the vertical dividing lines such as big trees and door frames can also be arranged on the vertical three-point line.

As for the "well-character lattice", we also need to pay attention to the "point of interest" on the basis of the above principles. We can arrange the subject or more important elements on the point of interest, such as a pedestrian on the street. We can arrange the character at a certain point of interest.

Important elements, want to highlight elements can be placed on the point of interest, we should be more flexible in the use of points of interest, such as shooting people, if the proportion of characters is large, then the head of the characters can be arranged on the point of interest; if you shoot close-ups of characters, then the eyes, as the most important element, can also be arranged on the point of interest.

3. The hierarchical trisection method not only simply divides the picture into several parts, it can also play a role in dividing levels.

This is obvious in landscape photography. Taking the following photo as an example, the foreground (the flowers that have been falsified near the lens), the middle view (the clear ocean), and the background (the distant sky) happen to be divided into three uniform parts. it is natural to make use of different scenery to divide the layers.

In many shooting scenes, it is very convenient to divide the front, middle and far levels by Trichotomy.

It is also important to note that not all scenes, like the photo above, can be divided into 1:1:1 levels, and some scenes may have only two views, such as the distant sky and the nearby ocean, then we can take the ratio of 1:2:

If the performance of the sky is better, and we mainly want to show the sky, then we can let the sky take up 2 to 3 of the space, and the water surface occupies 1 to 3 of the space, with the water as the dividing line.

On the other hand, if you want to highlight the sea water, you can let the sea water take up more space.

This principle applies to the horizon, vertical dividing lines, etc.

4. If the direction is to shoot a moving or directional object, then we also need to arrange the tripartite composition according to the direction of the object.

For example, if someone is moving from left to right, when we see this scene, we will move our eyes in the direction of his movement, then when filming, we'd better give more display space to the right, and we can arrange the characters in the position of left 1max 3.

If the character is still, but facing to the right, we also need to use this method. Imagine that the character looks to the right, but we arrange a narrow space for the right. This kind of photo looks a little awkward and does not conform to visual principles and psychological expectations.

5. In fact, the flexible use of the "three points" is only a similar concept. In actual shooting, we do not have to rigidly follow the guidelines of the three points to compose the picture, that is to say, the three points and the zigzag are just a kind of reference. We just have this kind of consciousness.

The dividing line of the picture does not have to completely coincide with the three-point line, but also needs to consider the overall effect of the photo. The classic point of the Trichotomy lies in its cooperation with other compositions:

Tripartite composition + frame composition

Tripartite composition + diagonal composition

Three-part composition + guide line composition when we are usually looking at other people's works, or watching movies or watching all kinds of video materials, we can try to observe and analyze the composition from the perspective of Trichotomy, and we may find a lot of interesting things. give us some inspiration in composition.
