In the shooting of fashion portraits, the subject's emotional expression is mainly based on the theme content. What kind of theme content and style, you need to express what kind of character feelings. For example, if the theme is to express ease and pleasure, then the emotions of the characters should show feelings of pleasure and love.
How a photographer can effectively guide the model's emotions is very important in shooting performance, and it is also a severe test of the photographer's ability of perception, thinking and observation.
If a photographer doesn't know what kind of facial expressions and body expressions he wants, he certainly doesn't know how to guide his models. This requires photography to have a deep understanding of the theme content and style expression, and to have the consciousness of imaging in the brain.
The photographer's guidance to the emotional expression of the model is not only the guidance to the shooting scene, but also the communication between the photographer and the photographed model before shooting.
Communicate with Mott on the theme and shooting ideas before shooting, let the model image in his own ideas and consciously understand how to express it with natural and vivid emotions. If the model really has a deep understanding of the theme, its deductive effect is far better than the photographer's guidance and demonstration at the shooting scene.
To really impress the viewer, the emotional expression of the model must come from the true expression of the heart, so that it is not artificial and blunt. At the same time, it is also conducive to the on-site guidance of photographers, and the effect will be better.
Then there is the photographer's guidance on the shooting scene, which mainly includes language guidance, music guidance and effective demonstration of the photographer. But the photographer must have a thorough understanding of the theme, so as to effectively guide the mood of the model and improve the shooting rate.
To sum up, the guidance to the model is mainly manifested in the communication with the model before shooting, so that the model can have a deep understanding of the content of the performance, followed by the photographer's guidance at the shooting scene and the photographer's demonstration at the scene. The effective expression of characters' emotions in portrait works is based on the subject and photographer's understanding of the theme, otherwise, the emotional expression will be inaccurate.
