Photographers must do this before making an appointment.

Today, I will share with you how to make full preparations before shooting.

1. Determine the shooting theme.

First of all, we must determine the shooting theme, whether it is a single person (girl, boy), a double person (couple, girlfriend) or a group photo.

2. Determine the shooting theme (style)

After determining the theme, you need to be clear about the theme style you want to shoot.

Hong Kong style, Japanese style, creativity, film sense, emotion, film, retro and so on.

3. Determine the shooting location and time

According to the theme style to be shot, choose the shooting time of the scene that conforms to the style, and then choose the shooting time according to the required light, such as the relatively short time nodes such as dusk and sunset.

Indoor, street, amusement park, park, rooftop, seaside, forest, etc. At the same time, the shooting time is determined according to the light required for shooting the picture.

Confirm clothes

The next step is to determine the clothing, to meet the certain style, and then communicate with the model to match the makeup. If it is creative makeup, you should fully communicate with the makeup artist.

French dress, swimsuit, floral shirt, school uniform, floral skirt, etc.

Determine props

Next, determine the props needed for shooting, including environmental layout and models.

Hang headphones, fruits, marshmallows, water guns, flowers, books and so on.

6. Action reference

Before getting ready to enter the shooting stage, in order to make the shooting smoother, we can find some action reference pictures for the models to practice in advance.

The above is our whole shooting planning process ~ ~ friends who just started filming remember the code!
