• 16:57, 21 September 2020 Abratox talk contribs created page File:FINAL FANTASY XV 20200920095850.jpg (Cindy's expression here is the main subject that was chosen to be photographed. We're not interested in the rest of her body, so the camera got closer to her, cutting out unnecessary detail from the image, leaving just enough background to show that she is in the auto station where she usually works. The shallow depth of field was also used to emphasize that she is where our attention should be. (Final Fantasy XV))

The shades and the feeling of the ending day add up to a more dramatic scene, Also the composition is made of different depths and layers.)

The lines from the foreground lead us towards the scene and creates depth. (Batman Arkham Knight))

There is unquestionably a details of Vault-Tec mark that is the only man made object across the shot that by itself creates a contrast between natural and man-made.)

• 16:50, 19 September 2020 Abratox talk contribs created page File:Far Cry Primal - Valley of the Bears - 10000BC.jpg (The dramatic effect of this images come from the high trees and ridges that seem to cave us in and in a way pressure us to run toward the middle part of the image. Natural lightning gives us something we can corelate to, even though this is not a real shot of the nature. Additionally, there are a few details like the high tree in the middle as well as the white ones that give us the feeling of being in the "land of Gods".)

By having such a far depth of fieldd in this shot there are very few details we can see in the distance, pushing the viewer's eye toward the jaggy details of the palm looking trees located in the left part of the image.)

Also there is a rule of subject position in the line of field, where these hanging branches create more plains of depth, so you have branches in the first plan, torch and pointy rock in the second and cave entrance and sky in the third.)

Additionally, the rough and sharp stalactites give a stark contrast compared to warm and natural light of the fire.)

The dust from the spaceship complements the clouds on the sky, as well as the clouds with their gentle texture complement the rough texture of the planet's flora.)

There is also a geometry shape of the sky and ground that complement each other. The horizon in this landscape is not in the center, but rather placed on the lower right half for the sake of more dramatic effect.)

• 16:18, 16 September 2020 Abratox talk contribs created page File:Spiderman 1.jpeg (Spiderman is leaping towards the ground, however he is positioned to the side because of an optical illusion. He is clearly aiming at the center of that street, but if we put him there, realistically he would overshoot that center by a lot. Having him on the side, like any motion story, tells us not where he is but where he will end up being. Twisting the angle of the shot above high-rise buildings gives a greater sense of vertigo. The depth of field tells us just how high Spiderman is.)

That way an already big enemy like the one in this photo looks like it is towering over Aloy and that stomp that it is going for, would definitely crush her. In the same respect, with this angle we want to also show how small the other character is. Having the horizon that low also gives an almost infinite size feel to the enemy making him look larger than even the...)

This With the camera so close to our character, the scene is more dynamic because we can clearly see actions of both subjects.)

• 16:16, 16 September 2020 Abratox talk contribs created page File:GranTurismo 2.jpg (Adding motion blur gives a photo a sense of speed. By moving the camera back, this time the focus is on the upcoming track. Angled upward also means greater notion that the car is moving forwards. Another way to make the composition of a photo pop more is by adding complimentary colors for the two most obvious subjects. That way you have a clear separation and it is more pleasing to the eye.)

• 16:15, 16 September 2020 Abratox talk contribs created page File:GranTurismo 1.jpeg (For a sense of movement you can either position the camera in front or behind the car. In this example the composition of the car and its background is almost 50-50 in screen space. The car needs to be at a certain distance to make it look like its coming towards you and at the same time, show where its coming from. Playing with the perspective and tilting the image slightly gives a greater sense of speed.)

• 16:15, 16 September 2020 Abratox talk contribs created page File:Death Stranding 3.jpeg (Just as with vehicles, for character movements you need to position the camera at an angle that best gives away the sense of a leap towards something or somewhere. In this example our character is jumping off a cliff. By leaving the ground/landing zone invisible to the viewer, the composition gives a sense of a much higher jump than it actually is and by tilting the camera slightly downward, that accentuates the feel of a jump even more.)

• 16:15, 16 September 2020 Abratox talk contribs created page File:Death Stranding 2.jpeg (In photography, the rules of thirds make the photo look more pleasing. Therefore it is not common to have items or subjects put in the dead center. In this example, having the character in the middle of the photo works perfectly because it is showing scale, just how large the world around him is. It also helps that due to the layout of the land, it is not a flat horizon but a more triangular composition giving also the depth to the image.)
