A lot has changed in photography in the last 74 years, but this old-school instructional video from 1949 still offers compositional tips that stand the test of time.
, the old educational video is not only still practical for today’s digital photographers, it’s a riveting time-capsule in and of itself.
Composition includes four primary elements, illustrated clockwise from the top left: Lines, masses, tone or contrast, and framing. “Much of balance in a picture is psychological,” the narrator remarks. This comes into play when photographing a person or an animal. It’s important to give a subject space to look or move. For example, when photographing a bird in flight, compositional balance is better-achieved when the bird was space to fly into within the frame rather than being crowded near an edge.
Another timeless tip is, “In each picture, you must look for the best way to arrange the subject. Moving the camera around to try different proportions in the viewfinder will help you see new possibilities.”
