Upon further research on the filming process, I am learning about how shots are composed. The different types of compositions that I need to understand includes:
- Framing - Framing is just one aspect of directing with the camera, the placement and position of the subjects in your shots.
- Rule of thirds - This is 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. As a result, when you position the most important elements of your image at these intersection points, a much more natural image is produced.
- Depth of field, deep and shallow focus - Depth of field is the area of acceptable sharpness in front of and behind the subject in which the lens is focused. Meaning how blurry or sharp a shot is made. A shallow depth of field refers to a small area in focus. A deep depth of field captures a larger area in focus, often keeping everything in the image sharp and clear.
- Focus pulls - This is when the camera operator changes the focal point of a scene while they are filming. For example, the camera is focused on a subject in the foreground, and then the focus changes to the back of the room to a different subject, which happens all in one shot.
