Digital | Negative Space - Duration: 6:12.

Welcome to phdu, today we'll be using negative space as the main inspiration for our compositions.

I was just doing some b-roll, some other shots of some trees and stuff.

I saw these leaves up here, and I was getting a nice shot on the camera.

Sharp focus of the one leaf, and behind it in the background you would see all these little green dots

of the other leaves that are in the background from the sun.

I think that's negative space...

I'm not entirely sure, but I still want to give that a go.

So for my shot, what I think negative space is - is getting a subject and then behind

them it's just like a blue sky or black wall or something that's just kind of concentrated,

and just a very vibrant colour.

So I'm going to get Josh - I'm going to photograph Josh, and I'm going to put him on top of the

hill up here.

I'm going to try get a little bit of green at the bottom, but mostly it's just going

to be the blue.

So we've just turned the corner and there's this nice tree here - it's in shadows, and

it's nice and dark.

I'm thinking of getting a portrait of Maddie, and the tree encapsulating the background.

I think I'll have to crop it in post, but it's a hard one - negative space is a hard one.

I'm not sure if I'm using - I think negative space is meant to draw - meant to isolate

the subject or it's meant to put focus on the subject because there's so much space

around them.

Its hard - I haven't actually looked up a definition so this is...

Let's actually look up a definition.

It's quite simply, the space that surrounds an object in a image.

Just as important as the object itself, negative space helps to define the boundaries of positive

space and brings balance to a composition.

So negative space is just the space around a subject.

So in those simple terms, I'm going to get Maddie to sit on this bench, and I'm going

to try frame her smaller and make the frame more about the plants behind her - because

there's some nice light on those too from the sun.

I feel like I've just been bitten by something now, so my lips are - I'm having an allergic

reaction to something.

But aside from that, I have an idea.

The idea is there's this rocky kind of wall behind us, and there's just one corner just

right in there which I think has enough depth as negative space to put Josh or myself in

front of it.

We've got this nice wall, the greenery - there's some really nice light in the corner and on

the ground here.

So I think I might frame myself in this.

I think I'll stand in the middle and I'll direct Maddie on how to take this photo.

We thought we'd try a reflection this week.

Negative space it's umm - with all of these challenges it's hard.

When you start going out looking to do a certain thing you've got to get your mind

into it.

You've got to go "Ok, let's take a couple of photos and really just start focusing on

what I think low-angle is, what I think negative space is."

It takes you a couple of photos, but once you get towards the end of it, you're like

"Yeah I think I got some good photos that represent what I think that is."

And what's difficult is that for me especially doing industrial and all that kind of stuff...

I would go onto Google images and try and replicate that kind of stuff, but with the

places and locations that we chose, it was hard because what I had in mind wasn't there.

The whole point is to challenge ourselves and go 'This is what you're doing, this is

the camera you've got - now make the best image you can with those things.'

I think it's makes for some unique images because - we've walked around here before

and we've taken some photos, but thinking about negative space specifically - you don't

think of certain compositions and then you get the photos that you never would have taken

because you're thinking in a certain way.

I feel like negative space is just kind of like an untold little story.

You have your subject and you have whatever is it as your negative space and then you

kind of make up - because it's so minimalistic, you kind of make up what you want in it.

It's being able to compose that so effectively that when people look at it they do think

of it in that way.

Overall though, I think we got some really nice images today - It was a good location

actually, I didn't think - Sunny day, really nice light this morning actually.

I didn't think it was going to turn out as good as I thought, just because of trees and

stuff - I don't like shooting them just because of the fringing and purple around the edges

- But either way I think we've done a good job, I think it's turned out a lot more interesting

that I thought, and more importantly we got some nice photos out of it.
