Post #7 Preliminary exercize

Composition is the construction of elements in a frame. It helps express the context to a scene. In this photo, shallow focus is utilized to project the narrative onto the viewer. The lack of focus in the background allows one to keep their eyes on the subject. An audience will predict that the character is a girl by looking at her pink shoes. 
 




In this photo, the character is seen with her leg up on the wall while looking down. This is a standard shot. This shot's purpose is to convey a sense of realism. An audience may look at their subject at an eye-to-eye level, helping them understand the emotion the subject is feeling. Here, they may think that the girl is feeling mopey as she looks towards the ground.









In the given photo, the subject is walking down a hall right in the middle. This type of photo is called a long shot. Long shots are used to show the relationship of the subject to their surroundings. It also exploits the setting. The audience can see her backpack and the boards on the walls, so they will assume she is at school.







In here, the girl is staring at her computer. This photo uses the rule of thirds to catch the audience's attention. Placing her eyes on the top line of the grid helps display what she is focused on. A viewer will then understand that she is looking at something on her computer.
