Photography Composition:

In Photo shop we learnt how to create new posters by cutting out images and putting them together creating reflections and changing colours to make them look as if they were meant to be there. We are now able to create posters for films and are able to remove spots and cuts of peoples faces.
Photography brings a visual language that is universal in understanding. We must then understand its vocabulary which consists of shapes, textures, patterns, lines, colours, shade of light to dark and sharp to blurry images. Just as we must learn to arrange words in a coherent order in order to make sense when we write or speak, so too must we put visual elements together in an organized manner if our photographs are to convey their meaning clearly and vividly.
Composition means arrangement: the orderly putting together of parts to make a unified whole; composition through a personal, intuitive act. However, there are basic principles that govern the way visual elements behave and interact when you combine them inside the four borders of a photograph. Once we have sharpened our vision and grasped these basic ideas of principles, then we will have the potential for making our photographs more exciting and effective than ever before.

About Myself

My name is Hannah Patey i live in worcester in a place called hallow which takes me about 2 and a half hours from here, I used to go to The Kings school Worcester and am now here studying media. I really enjoy media as it is a broad subject and can lead you into many jobs later on in life. I really like romcoms or chickfilcks and sometimes i enjoy to watch a scary film or a thriller, i love 'the holiday', 'love actually', 'Dear john' and 'No vacancy'.
