Not knowing this ruined 80% of photos
In this video I shared some techniques I learned from a book which really helped transform my photography.
Here are the quotes mentioned in the video written by Robert Mckee:
“True character is revealed in the choices one makes under pressure– the greater the pressure, the deeper the revelation, the truer the choice to the character’s essential nature.”
"Story = mood + emotion."
"Story values are the universal qualities of human experience that may shift from positive to negative, or negative to positive, from one moment to the next... For example, love/hate, courage/cowardice, strength/weakness... Without a change of values its a non-event."
"Story should create meaning." He does't like "Deus ex machina"
"Talent alone doesn’t work. For talent without craft is like fuel without an engine... Some, dreading that awareness of how they do what they do would cripple their spontaneity, never study the draft. Instead they march along in a lockstep of unconscious habit, thinking it’s instinct... a composer must excel in the principles of music composition, so you must master the corresponding principles of story composition."
- Robert McKee
In this book I review "Story" by Robert McKee and share how it changed my photography.
