How to take photos of the meeting place —— Practical skills of indoor conference photography

There are three main contents in the indoor meeting. One is the close-up of people, such as leaders' speeches and distinctive representatives at meetings. It's easier to take this kind of photo, just use a flash. If you are shooting at close range, don't point the flash directly at people. You can fill the light up slightly through the reflection from the ceiling, so that people's faces are not easy to turn white. Also, if there is an anti-red eye setting, it should be turned on, otherwise the red eye of the person will become a waste film. If you shoot a person from a long distance through a telephoto lens, the flash can be aimed at the person directly, or the angle can be adjusted appropriately according to the distance. This must be mastered according to practice. If it is a good digital camera, you don't need a flash when shooting at close range, you can also set the sensitivity higher (400/600/800) or shoot with a tripod. The second is to shoot at the venue. Pay attention to choosing a good angle to make the theme and characters of the meeting stand out. Generally, wide-angle shooting is better. You can get faster speed and make the picture clearer. When shooting a wide angle, it is best to use a tripod, so that you don't need a flash and the effect is better. Because if you use a flash, it will cause the front of the lens to turn white, far from underexposure. However, attention should be paid to photometry, and it is generally better to choose intermediate measurement, which can take into account both ends. It is best to shoot the venue with a digital camera. The third is to take dynamic photos such as awards and awards. Because people are moving, you must use the flash, otherwise it will easily make the picture empty. This is similar to the method of shooting people. Pay attention to the angle of the flash when shooting at close range. If you can't adjust the flash angle, try not to get too close to people to avoid the subject turning white.

One disadvantage of indoor shooting is that the light is not ideal. In most cases, the indoor light will be too dim. It is worth noting that when shooting indoors, it is best to turn off the flash and put the camera on the tripod at the same time, otherwise the photo will become blurred. Without a tripod, you should try to find a stable support point. Although these methods are not as good as tripods, they can also reduce the photo blur caused by camera shake. When releasing the shutter, lean the camera against a hard object-stool, post or wall, as long as it is stable, then press the shutter very gently and release the button. If possible, you can also use a selfie to release the shutter.

In short, indoor shooting should pay attention to three aspects: first, the aperture should be as large as possible, and the bigger the better; Because people need a large aperture, it is the widest angle when shooting panorama, and the large aperture has little effect on the depth of field; The second is to grasp the speed. According to the aperture, the speed is generally1/60s except when the flash is used, and other time speeds are determined according to the aperture. Slow down. Third, use a flash. As mentioned above, master the angle and the amount of flash.

Meeting shooting skills:

First, take close-ups of people (leaders and audience)

This kind of photo is easier to take when the leaders speak, and the audience representatives can take a glance at the venue. Use a flash. If you are shooting at close range, don't point the flash directly at people. You can fill the light up slightly through the reflection from the ceiling, so that people's faces are not easy to be white and shiny.

If the camera has a red-eye prevention setting, it should be turned on, otherwise the red-eye of the person photographed will become a waste film. If you can't adjust the flash angle, try not to get too close to people to avoid the subject turning white. If you shoot a person from a long distance through a telephoto lens, the flash can be aimed at the person directly, or the angle can be adjusted appropriately according to the distance. This must be mastered according to practice.

Second, the photos of the press conference should be taken steadily.

Panoramic photos of hotel conference rooms should be taken horizontally and vertically, otherwise there will be weightlessness. The emblem shall be horizontal, and the columns on both sides of the rostrum shall be vertical.

Three. Matters needing attention in shooting in small conference room

Pay attention to the use of light when shooting in a small conference room, because there are often many windows in a small conference room. Seriously disturbed by strong light, it is easy to blacken the characters. If possible, you'd better use a flash. Without a flash, the most difficult way for a photographer is to turn his back to the window or avoid strong light at the shooting angle.

Fourth, when you are in a meeting, you should also pay attention to some eye-catching backboard colors.

Especially red, bright yellow and dark blue will attract the attention of the eyes. Do you want to avoid appearing in the picture? A color that has nothing to do with the subject but will attract attention.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) full shadow photo

1, with outstanding theme. When shooting, you must take a full-length photo of the meeting. In the full-length photo, you should bring the title of the meeting in the banner of the venue into the picture, and you will know what the meeting is by looking at the photo. You should pay attention to the richness of pictures in panoramic photos. Achieve the trinity; The flag of the meeting, the leaders of the rostrum and the participants should be photographed to make the photos of the meeting grand, vivid and three-dimensional.

2. Panoramic photos are best not to take the aisle of the venue into the picture, otherwise the photos will appear loose, and you can avoid the aisle of the venue by changing the angle.

The intransitive verbs shoot the speeches of leaders and distinguished guests.

1. At the beginning of the meeting, the host opened with a close-up. Generally, the table is too high to be photographed from the front, otherwise the table will only show a head and look ugly. The correct shooting angle is 45 degrees. Don't connect the microphone to your mouth or block the leader's face. Also, be careful not to let the craziest lines appear in the leader's head. This scene is basically close-up, and you can also have a panoramic view when you speak.

2. In addition, the team leader had better shoot at the beginning of the meeting. Because at this time, the leaders are full of energy. The shooting effect is good. Please pay special attention to the background picture of the podium. Don't let the head of the leader overlap with some discordant pictures in the background. It's best to shoot from different angles for later selection, otherwise it's a waste film.

3. When shooting, try to be close to the second-level leader of the meeting to ensure that there will be no irrelevant personnel or shake their heads because the camera is pulled too far, and the picture will be deformed and shaken. If you can make moves in front of the leaders, you must strive to get ahead, seize the opportunity and choose the right time.

4. When shooting the leader, George W. Yu Lang also reminded everyone not to make some low-level composition mistakes. For example, when speaking, the microphone covers half of the leader's face, the level of the desktop is as high as the leader's neck, the leader is smoking or holding a cigarette first, the venue is filled with smoke, and the leader next door is half-headed or half-handed.
