Topic - Compelling Composition: Isolate and Simplify

A tour de force of compositional techniques and creative applications for greatest visual impact. The overriding concept is to learn to isolate and simplify the subject. Simplicity is power.

Among the topics discussed will be the power of perspectives, the power of line in visual design, creating visual drama, the use of strong graphics to enhance visual interest and drama, and many more compositional techniques to maximize visual impact.

It is the hope that this presentation increases the attendees’ attention to detail in creating clean, direct, and compelling compositions.

Questions are encouraged throughout the presentation and at the end.

Bio: Tony Sweet short Bio

Coming from an artistic background as a professional jazz artist and professional close up magician (sleight of hand artist), to professional nature/ fine art photographer, Tony has always sought creative, deeply personal endeavors. The transition from jazz artist to nature photographer was a seamless transition as both require an improvisational nature and an ability to adapt to quickly changing conditions.

Tony was named a Nikon Legend Behind the Lens and has been published worldwide for over 35 years. He has authored 8 books, contributing to many others, co-produced an educational DVD series, and continues to teach and lecture throughout the US, Canada, Iceland, and Cuba. His article on macro photography was published in the New York Times.

Tony is co-owner, along with Susan Milestone, of their Visual Artistry location workshops series, Creativity Seminars, private virtual training sessions, private location workshops, and ZOOM presentations to photographic societies worldwide.
