Why is the photographer so important? Well first off, the photographer should have
a great eye. Having a great eye could
first mean that the photographer should have great site and vision which would
help to create more focused photos and video, but mainly having an eye for
photography is when the photographer can get good composition. We’re very limited by what we can see and our
imagination can sometimes run wild. The
photographer should have his or her own style and be able to see what someone
wants as far as work or a style and be able to mimic that specific style with
the camera. All photographers should be
able to come up with their own techniques and skills. I was reading about in the Digital Camera World site is portrait photography it spoke on different
ways that you can manually set your focus and play with the eyes of your
talent. When you are behind a camera, you are a cinematographer. You have to be
able to operate the camera professionally and frame shots and be very knowledgeable
quick, and accurate at times. If you can
shoot well than you really do not need a fancy camera, you just need skill and
technique as a photographer. Having a great phone like the IPhone 6 plus is a
great phone to shoot pictures you can still do a great job, but having lenses
and knowing good aperture and f-stops this is where it gets more technical and
you actually need a good DSLR camera. The photographer should be a visionary and be
able to come up with unique ideas on their own and shoot at different camera
angles and positions. One of the things many
people have a problem with is the 180-degree rule. In the Learn About Film
site, it talked about the 180-degree rule and high and low angles. If a photographer knows the different angles it
can make the shot more powerful especially at a higher angle depending on what
your going for. The photographer is the beholder of the camera, and the camera
is like their baby they have to know it understand it and help make it work.
