A Breakdown of Contrast in Photography.

- In today‘s video it‘s time to break down contrast. Contrast is such an essential part of photography, but it's often reduced to less than it actually is. Therefore here is my attempt to break down the topic and all the aspects I could think of.

Hey there, I hope you've had a good day - mine went alright, but not as planned. I completely underestimated the amount of work this video is going to need, so here it is a bit later than usual, I hope you enjoyed :D
Btw. I forgot to credit one of the photographs - the skier at 05:52 is by Kellen Mohr. I left all featured artists plus a link to them in the description in case you‘re interested :)
See you next week!
I've been watching your videos for the past few weeks, and in my opinion, you're one of the best film photography channels out there. They way your videos are shot and edited makes them very enjoyable and informative, I always learn something new! Keep up the amazing work :D
Aww that's so kind, thank you!🥺❤️
This was one of the most informative and elaborate photography videos I have seen on this platform in a long time!
Aww thank you so much Karin!🥺🙇🏻♂️
Amazing demo, thanks!
Your discussion videos, that deliberate the philosophy of photography are amongst the best out there on RUclips.
Barbara Hepworth, on sculpture talks about ‘all my early memories are of form and shapes and textures...”.”I am the form and I am the hollow, the thrust and contour”. By capturing forms, shapes and textures (contrast) through the medium of photography, we capture the essence of our emotions. Visual and conceptual contrasts are our tools.
I recently produced a book (non commercial) of lockdown photographs, contrast as you describes it abounds. But, for me the emotions the photographs generate, from the contrast(whether it be visual or conceptual) is the end point. As you say, we need to use contrast to generate emotion, otherwise our photography is flat. The end point is not a pretty picture, but something that generates an emotion.
Ohh thank you so much, I'm happy you connect to the thoughts I'm sharing!🤗
Ohh what an interesting parallel you see to Hepworth, great! Yes, I agree. I love how contrast is such an effective tool to deepen a photograph👀
Love this - I especially enjoy your videos exploring the fundamentals of imagery like this. Whenever I think of contrast I just think of the contrast slider in Lightroom, you've helped expand my mind more to think of contrast as an essential element in picture taking. It's something I tune into subconsciously when I take a photo but now it'll be more conscious!
Ahhh perfect, that's amazing! I'm super happy I could broaden your thinking in contrast. I'm glad you let yourself into all of these thoughts of mine🤗
I think you make a great point opening up the idea of contrast for discussion! I really like how you at the same time explain what contrast is and what it does but also how open it's meaning really is
Intelligent people have the ability to verbalize what others have noticed but are not aware of. Poets typically have that ability.
Well made, well spoken video essays about photography?? Interesting motion graphics? Am I dreaming? Great work Teo.
Aww thanks🥺🙇🏻♂️
Many thanks for this breakdown. I am still very much in the beginning of the photography learning curve, after starting in a serious way about 1 year ago. Through your explanations and thoughtful considerations, I came to realise that I can try to reduce visual contrasts, in terms of colour, tone, texture, shape, form and sharpness etc., instead of *always* aim to maximise these types of contrasts. Also, the realisation of topical contrast, is very useful, in order create photographs that tell a more compelling story. In all, contrast as 'difference', in any kind, is a valuable one. I will try to apply that concept more, the next time I go out to photograph or edit photographs. Many thanks!
Your videos are so well produced and your upload-frequency is amazing! You definetly deserve more than just 16.000 subs
Awww thank you!🥺🙇🏻♂️
such a great video! love binging your stuff
Aww thank you, I’m happy that someone still watches these older videos!🥹🙏🏼
Tolles Video mit einem sehr interessanten Thema einleuchtend erklärt. Danke dafür.
Deine Videos sind für mich immer sehr inspirierend. Mach weiter so.😊
This video was so helpful for my photography class. Thank you for sharing!
Your voice is like heaven... 😩❤
You make me love the art of photography even more.... New sub here and I'm so happy to be here😊
When I finished the video, I thought to myself that this was one of the best photography videos on RUclips. It was logical for me that you had at least a million subs, so I wanted to check out the channel. After seeing how many subs you had I couldn't believe my eyes lmaoo. This is just a sign that you are getting recognised for your work, and that there is a lot of success ahead of you 😁!
I like the depth of your video! Thank you!
Ohh glad you do, thank you!🙇🏻♂️
Brilliant video! Thanks! A lot of time and effort went into the subject and video!
Sureee!🤗 Glad you enjoyed it!
another really excellent video... everything makes sense... a couple of things your video helped me realize... generally, it seems that thinking about visual contrast works well on a shot to shot basis, but when contentual contrast kicks in when talking about image sets, larger bodies of work... also content contrast is important in the realm of street photography... so a tip to improve one's street shots is to think of content contrast (at least that's what i usually think of when looking at well-timed and/or cleverly taken street shots, I'm usually noticing the interplay of elements of the photo and not the just brightness, shapes or colors...
In search of good YT videos about contrast this is a very good video, well explained !!!
I will quote this video when people don't understand contrast.
But the speckles made me crazy at full screen on a 27 inch monitor hehehe.
Thanks for sharing
Ahh thanks! :)
Haha I noticed that one some other viewers too, therefore my newer videos do not have them anymore :)
Great video like always!
Ahh sweet, thank you!🤗
Very well done Teo, thanks for your effort and time and I totally agree with you on this topic of contrast. So good you think out of the box and formulate your own ideas about these kind of things. I think that contentual contrast is very important, cause there are lots of photographers who use this in their photography, especially when photographing real life series like 101 billionaires by Rob Hornstra. Greets from Holland, John!
Ohh cool, this makes me so happy - I'm glad you connect with the thoughts I put out here!🤗
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, greetings!🙌🏼
Hey teo!
What a well produced video this is!
Keep up the good work and helpful information
Heeey thank you!🥺🙇🏻♂️
great video man
Just started watching the video, but I generally want to say that I love your photos and photography style 🙈🥰
Aww thank you!🥺🙇🏻♂️
been following your content this year, and heck i've learned so much that even is not in a "masterclass". Keep it up my guy. Wish i could shoot with you one day :)
Aww that is amazing, thank you so much!🥺🙇🏻♂️
It's been a while since I've watched some of your videos (catching back up though!) and I'm only halfway through, but this is by far my favorite video you've made. The story, explanations, and overall visuals are fantastic - I feel like If someone showed me this out of the blue I would have guessed it was part of some pig-production or Netflix documentary. Keep it up man!
Gotta love those pig-productions, they're the best! 🐖🐖🐖🩰💃🐖🐖🐖
Aww that's so kind, thank you!🥺❤️
I'm so happy all the work finds people like you to resonate with🤗
Amazing content, Subscribed
Your video’s explanation of different ways to document contrast beyond color or tone is p important for making good images, so I appreciate how you approached this topic.
My only question: saturation contrast is what photographers call chroma, right? The color’s saturation is its chroma value, as far as I understand it.
Thank you for sharing, it is very useful.
Ohh sweet, sure thing!🤗
Tip: use google HCT rather than HLS, it will help you know whether you are changing tone or saturation, or both.
This was a very interesting breakdown. Thank you!
Thank You!👀🤗
@@teocrawford You're welcome! :-)
amazing video! thanks!
Thank You!🙇🏻♂️🤗
For me, the low contrast aspect of the Nguan images also evokes nostalgia as well as calmness etc. I noticed you also used this technique to good effect in many of your recent holiday pictures.....
Yes true, it indeed evokes those feelings for me too. And yes haha that's what I was aiming for in the editing process of those photos :D
I would also add subtextual contrast within a theme/leitmotif.
Thank you
very good video! :)
Thank you!🙇🏻♂️🤗
Underrated
Aww thanks🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️
great video! all those animations must have taken you soooo long!
Thank you!🤗 Haha it was quite a chunk of work yeah😅
@@teocrawford great job, this is probably the best video I’ve seen so far, content and presentation wise!
Sick
Thanksss🙇🏻♂️
good video
I feel like all the photos I’ll see after this video, I’ll have to analyze their contrast 😆
Whooops...maybe👀😂
take a shot every time he says "contrast"
"How to get drunk in 11 minutes"😅😅
