"Four Grounds Tell a Story" Photography Technique
Today, let's introduce the photo technique to give the press a story and not boring. Normally, if we take a straight face, the picture will look as hard as a card photo, right? Today, I have a great technique to make your pictures look more interesting.
The "Four Grounds Tell a Story" technique
The word "Four Ground" in the home language is "Front Scene," which means that whatever is closest to our camera, when we take a picture, we put something in front of the camera and put what we really want to take behind it. What is in front of it will make our picture look more dimensional, it seems that there are many layers, it is not flat, and it will also tell the story of the picture better.
A simple example that you can try to use.
- Take a picture of someone who is doing an activity, such as a volunteer job. Instead of taking a straight face, zoom the camera closer to see the hands of the activity, or maybe put some related items in front of the camera.
- We usually take pictures in front of people, right? Try to take them from the side corner and see a water bottle or a document on the table as a four-ground.
- Take a military training job. Take a picture of a leaf or a branch in the foreground and put a picture of the soldier behind it to make the picture more natural and storied.
Using "Four Ground" makes the picture not too flat, as if we were actually peeking at the event, making the audience feel like they were in the event.
Let's apply this technique to press release photography. I assure you that the image will definitely be more vibrant and interesting.
