生活百科 拍靓照有诀窍

[视频文本]
Sure, a beautiful photograph takes some skill behind the lens, but it takes a little skill in front of it, too.

*A photographer
*A camera with flash

 

Step 1: Choose your clothes 衣服要选择颜色明亮的，样式新潮的或者带条纹的款式。
When choosing your clothes, leave bright colors, crazy patterns, and horizontal stripes in the closet. Neutral colors look best.

Step 2: Check your face 拍照之前要照照镜子，检查一下自己的脸蛋是否修要做些修饰。
Check your face in the mirror: Do you have any blemishes you could cover, or greasy skin that needs powdering? Could your eyes use some drop to clear up redness? Are your eyebrows trim and neat?

If you wear makeup, remember that colors will look more intense in photos, especially on black-and-white film.

Step 3: Take pictures outside in morning or before sunset 拍外景要选择早晨或者日落之前，因为这时候的光线柔和，拍照效果比较好。
Try to have the pictures taken outside in the morning or before sunset. The light is soft and flattering at these times, whereas high noon or flash photography can illuminate a little too much.

Step 4: Make sure camera is eye level 确保相机跟你的眼睛高度齐平，或者略高一点儿。相机放的太低，会拍出双下巴的。
Make sure the camera lens is at eye level or just slightly higher. Any lower and you’ll look like you have a double chin.

Step 5: Lean back & angle hip forward 拍照时，站姿要自然，向后稍微倾斜。摆POSE也不要过度。
To appear more natural when standing for a photo, lean slightly back, with your weight on your rear foot, and angle one hip forward.

Keep your posture erect but not overly posed. Think “Greek Statue,” not “William Shatner.”

Step 6: Turn your head 头部略偏，让你的脸看起来不那么大。
Turn your head two-thirds to one side or the other for a slimming effect on your face.

Avoid wide-angle lenses, which will widen the appearance of your face.

Step 7: Look at a light source 盯着电灯或者光源看一会儿，可以缩放瞳孔，避免红眼照。
Look at a light source, like a lamp or light, for a few moments. It reduces the size of your pupils and the possibility of red-eye. However, never look directly at the sun.

Step 8: Prevent blinking 拍照时，不要眨眼。
Just before the picture is taken, close your eyes and have the photographer count to three. Then open your eyes as he begins shooting. This is the best way to prevent blinking from ruining shots.

Step 9: Smile 保持微笑，说“茄子”。
The last and most important part of a picture is the smile. Saying kitschy things like “cheese” forces a fake grin that makes you look like a newscaster or a local politician. Instead, think of a funny memory, which will bring out a naturally happy look.

The first commercially available color film was offered in France in 1907.
