**The tension is a kind of visual impact, which can be said to be "potential" in a simple way, and it is the most direct feeling of the viewer in ***.
It comes from the performance of conflict, strength, contradiction, energy and potential in **, which is unforgettable and endless.
Specifically, tension is created when the elements in ** present a strong contrast or conflict. For example, in a black and white**, strong chiaroscuro can create tension; In a portrait**, the model's strong expressions and gestures can create tension. This tension will make ** more interesting and attractive.
And when this tension is strong enough, an impact can be generated. For example, a ** that expresses strong conflict or emotion can make people feel strongly and resonate strongly in a short period of time. This kind of impact can make ** more deeply rooted in people's hearts and more unforgettable.
*There are many factors that contribute to tension, including composition, connotation, color and light, artistic conception, and the model's posture and expression. In photography, by strengthening saturation and contrast, selecting conflicting and impactful scenes, discovering or creating unbalanced compositions, and posing imposing for models, the tension can be enhanced.
At the same time, the tension is also related to the distance between the elements in the picture, and this sense of space is completely caused by the contrast between the elements and forms a visual confusion. Therefore, doing a good job of contrast is an important means to enhance the tension. Specifically, light and dark tension, color tension and perspective tension are all the main factors that affect ** tension. For example, in black and white, because there is no color interference, the light and shadow effects in ** can be more prominent, so as to make the picture more tense.
In addition, good dynamic characters** are often described as having "tension". By expressing a sense of space and time, this kind of ** brings the viewer a sense of immersion. For example, when photographing a moving person, placing the figure in the foreground of the picture and retaining a large area of space in the place where the subject has traveled in the picture, gives people a hint that the subject is coming step by step from afar, so as to express a sense of space and time in the limited space of a picture.
Strengthening the tension of ** can be achieved in a variety of ways, and here are some commonly used tips:
1. Use contrast
Contrast is an important means of enhancing tension. Through the contrast of light and dark, color, size, shape, etc., you can highlight the theme and key points in the **, and increase the visual impact and dynamism of the **. For example, the use of side light or backlight can form a distinct shadow in the **, increasing the sense of three-dimensionality and depth; The use of hard or soft light can produce different light qualities, adding drama and tension; The use of monochrome or color can emphasize the form and atmosphere in **, conveying different emotions and associations.
2. Composition innovation
Composition is an important part of the project, and the tension can be increased through innovative composition. Try different composition methods, such as the importance of the foreground, the magic of the scene in the scene, 90 degrees of looking up, trying to close-up, seeing the big from the small, the reflection that cannot be ignored, the special space, and the good use of the background light spots, etc., can add new perspectives and tension to the sky.
3. Look for special light
Light is the soul of photography, and special light can add tension and charm to the light. Try shooting in different natural and artificial light, and observe and capture those fascinating lights, such as soft light at sunrise and sunset, silhouettes in backlight, etc., can bring unique tension to **.
4. Highlight the theme
Let ** have a clear theme or story, and highlight the theme through composition, color, light and shadow, etc., so that the audience can quickly understand and feel the intention of **. Finding a supporting character for the subject to contrast, or capturing details to highlight the theme, can enhance the story and tension.
5. Post-processing
Post-processing can also enhance the tension of **. By adjusting parameters such as color, contrast, sharpness, etc., you can strengthen certain elements in the ** and make the ** more impactful. At the same time, special post-processing effects, such as mirror reflection, zoom, etc., can also add interest and tension to **.
In general, tension is a complex visual experience that involves the use of multiple elements and techniques. By understanding these factors and applying them to their photographic practice, photographers can create more impactful and impactful work.
