Learning Photography from Other Disciplines

Yesterday I mentioned that we can learn more about photography from lots of places. One of these places is from other disciplines such as videography. Take for example the movies. Tonight I watched part of an old black and white movie entitled, “One Foot in Heaven.” The movie is about a Methodist pastor and his family who moved several times to different churches in his ministry. The storyline was intriguing to me, but I also enjoyed the images and how the video cameras helped to tell the story.

Watch an old movie sometime and see if you can get some ideas for composition in your own photography. We can learn from other disciplines and it can be fun!
