Cinematic Style Photography.

The are many style in digital photography world.......one of them is cinematic photography. It’s quite popular nowadays and many photographer adapted this style on many occasion such as fashion, wedding , portraits and even just for fun. What is important in cinematic photography is the post production setting ( or “photoshopping”) to get the result that we want. The are a couple of step in this technique :-

Desaturate Colours - Reducing the colour intensity makes the photo, “ film-like” effect.

Use lens blur to create shallow depth of field - Using wide open aperture (such as f/1.8 or f/1.4) to get the blurry effect or bokeh to match the film/cinematic lens effect.

Adjust colour balance – the are many type of colour scheme for cinematic effect depends on invidual style but mostly we can use cool toning setting using more bluish in colour balance( different with b&w cinematic style)

Add black bars top and bottom for Cinemascope effect – What can we do more? Just add the bars for immediate effect to finish off the photos.

*The most important thing in this style is how to capture the moment and transform the photos into the “cinematic style”.....the creativity is yours.....happy shooting and Assalamualaikum.
