LECTURE

  1. Introduction to basic composition.
    • Focal point
    • Scale and hierarchy
    • Balance the elements
    • Whire space 
  2. Rules of Third.
    • The process of dividing an image into thirds, using two horizontal and two vertical lines. This imaginary grid yields nine parts with four intersection points.
    • Position the most important elements of your image at these intersection points to produce a much more natural image. Also any horizon is placed on either the top horizontal line or bottom horizontal line. 
    • This is a way to:
      • Use composition techniques that are in line with what’s naturally pleasing to the eye.
      • Creatively use negative space.
      • Create conversation between the subject and background.
  3. Golden Ratio.
    • A mathematical ratio commonly found in nature, and when used in a design, it fosters organic and natural-looking compositions that are aesthetically pleasing.
    • In design, the Golden Ratio boils down to aesthetic - creating and appreciating a sense of beauty through harmony and proportion, it provides a sense of artistry.
    • It is a useful guideline for determining dimensions of the layout. One simple application of the Golden Ratio is to set your dimensions to 1:1.618. 
  4. Composition framing & cropping.
