FUJIFILM Masterclass | Composition - The Art of Seeing
Event Information
About this event
Join X-Photographer Phillip Bartlett discuss the importance of composition. Composition is the most critical fundamental as the foundation for creating a great image. However, it is often misunderstood, undervalued or quickly exchanged for the instant gratification of a colourful sky or postcard reflection. Training your eye to analyse the landscape and correctly compose each scene requires dedication and discipline. Improving your compositions will elevate the visual impact and quality of your photographs to a level which you did not think was possible.
In this masterclass I will be covering principles and techniques of composition, and will also discuss the in-field creative process and ideas to present your composition in the best possible light.
Topics covered:
1. The basics of composition i.e. Rule of Thirds, Layers etc.
2. How to analyse a scene.
3. The importance of micro-adjustments.
4. What are you saying?
5. Resisting the obvious.
6. Advanced composition.
7. The effect of elemental contrast.
8. How colour influences your composition.
9. Good light, bad light, no light.
10. Considering the conditions.
