The interesting thing about photography is not only studying the various photographic levels created by different levels of photographic equipment, or how different aperture and shutter combinations can create a variety of photographic effects for the same scene, but also includes How to use various tips (including pre-production work and post-production work) to shoot the special effects you want, such as if you want to shoot a cube falling into coffee, or a liquid like milk being tipped over, being splashed, How to take the gorgeous and challenging high-speed photography photos well and skillfully? Today I will share with you some tips!
1. Use tools
In addition to preparing subjects such as cups and milk, other photography tools also require background boards, glue guns, double-sided tape, and syringes (not including needles). In addition, tripods and external flashes are also necessary for photography. Indispensable.
2. Preparatory work
First of all, fix the subject such as the cup on the background board. Remember to fix it firmly, because in the next photography, the background board will be arranged upside down, so it is recommended that you use a heavier one. Objects can be fixed with a glue gun, and double-sided tape can be used for lighter items.
3. Photography preparation
After the scene is arranged, it is now time to set up the photographic equipment! For the flash part, the output value is set at 1/8~1/128, so that the effect of the liquid being instantly solidified can be photographed, and the settings It is the RPT mode, which is the continuous flash mode. You can take several photos in a row, and then... it’s actual on-site photography!
Use a syringe to inject milk (or coffee) into the cup. By rotating the syringe, the liquid can collide with the container and knock out water droplets one after another, or water columns that are basically connected in a line, forming in the air. Don’t just remember to admire the rotating dynamic appearance and forget to press the shutter!
After completing the photography, select your favorite photos and use computer software to do simple post-production operations to combine the photos.Become a photo, fine-tune the contrast, brightness, tone and other details of the photo, and it will become a super eye-catching water splash photo!
The next step, of course, is to quickly show off your proud work to your friends!
