All language subtitles for 14 - COMPOSITION

There are no rules for good photographs.

There are only good photographs.

Ansel Adams told this proposition.

I thought it's a good one.

So we started this episode with it.

Now back to what I'm saying.

Saying learning good composition is hard.

There are no rules.

There are only tools that can help
you like describing one with words.

They don't mean much.

The best way to learn
is to take lots of pictures.

Think about the issues
as you take them and critique

your photographs
and have others to critique them.

Look at good photographs by others.

When I was at the beginning of my journey,
I met a good wedding

videographer from my hometown
and he was the composition.

So I thought, why not asking him
if he can bring me with him

at the wedding to be his second shooter,
where I also learned a lot.

But at what cost?
I don't have words to tell you about.

How bad was the experience with him
as a person?

He was cursing me.

He was telling me that

I won't ever funeral wedding alone
because I'm bad and stuff like that.

But here I am.

I was also awarded
with three of my wedding videos.

So I think that pulling up
don't let people tell you

you can't do anything or something.

Just motivate yourself
through the bad words.

Let me tell you something.

It was a bit late

when I started doing this exercise,
and I assure you that if you do this,

it will take maximum one year to learn
how to better compose your shots.

Let me take my my phone
from from my little improvization.

So I am going on the Instagram, right.

And then taking a picture. Let me see.

Let me just record or record the screen.

So we are taking the pictures, right?

Maybe not this one.

We want we want.

What do you want?

Oh, come on.

The picture, please.

I only see cars

and radios.

Oh, look,
let let's let's discuss on this one.

Uh, this photograph is. It's a good one,

but I used to re reposition everything,
if you know what I mean.

I repositioned the shots
as I would like them to be.

Of course, they are not clear.

They are not the quality photos.

But you can.

You can see this.

This might be a good photograph
of this car.

You can see it's a mercedes,
You can see it.

So on.

It's an old one.

You can see it's another one. Looks cool.

Let's see.

Maybe you can take

shots of the car like this.

Not Yeah, like this.

And you can also take the shots of a car

like this.

Let's.

Let's search for another one.

Okay,

So we have this girl, like, right here.

So we have this girl right here.

We will recompose the shot.

Maybe I want her to be

like this

looks it looks better

than seeing everything in the shot.

Let's let's try this.

Maybe it's a bit too much space up there,

but with a beautiful text,
you can make this image even cooler.

So let's see.

Maybe this.

Maybe this will look good.

Like this.

Zoomed in.

We we go a little bit down with it.

We leave some space of there.

And this is a picture
that that I would be happy about.

Let's see.

Anything else?

Oh, this one.

I like it.

Okay.

Oh, this is a car I shot.

Look, this is a picture.

The picture I told you about.

I mean, the the composition of it.

Let's see

another one.

Maybe this one I would like it to be

maybe like this. Maybe.

Maybe horse centered.

But you can see the the Eiffel Tower,
but is just fine.

Maybe this picture where

I would like it like this.

Maybe I don't want to see that much.

I don't know if this helped me or not,
but I'm still doing it

because I like it
and I think I just feel it helped me.

So as I said there, you learn composition
just by going out and shooting a lot.

Do that every day.

Do it more and more every day
and try to inspire yourself

from other photographers
and videographers.

There is no wrong in shooting
someone else's idea as long as you change

a little bit in it.
