In March, it is another year of driving season, how to shoot a tacit blockbuster with your car has become the focus of everyone's attention. This time, from the perspective of a female driver in the car circle, I will share with you a few tips for shooting cars, maybe I can help you detonate the circle of friends later?
Model shot: 2022 BYD Song Pro DM-i 110km flagship Pro
Appeared on: Xiao Xi
Photographer: Ma Jialiang
Camera model: SONY A7M3
1) Front of the front
Song Pro DM-i not only has the standard LED headlights of the whole series, but also the front of the car with the "Longyan 3.0" design, the middle mesh area has been increased to 75%, and it also has high-brightness materials and chrome decorations, which we can echo with shiny accessories.

However, if you use the conventional standing at the front of the car, it is too confusing. We can grasp some details, such as slender light strips, such as chrome car logos, or focus on the lights, using the characters as a background, but there is an unexpected sense of obscurity.
2) 45 degrees on the front side
This angle is just right to expose the wheels, and the model we are looking at is the flagship Pro with a top-of-the-line pro with 19-inch wheels.
If I stand directly on the side, it will be a bit dull, and I will walk back and forth several times to let my colleagues help me capture the shot, which will seem more dynamic.
3) Rear of the car
The through-through taillights are inlaid with a chrome band, which is very delicate, but it can seem overwhelming if you pose directly.
With the camera standing diagonally behind, using a top-down perspective, I went to complete a car lock action from the main driver, and finally looked at the camera, which could catch some coherent and cool pictures.
4) Body side
The first thing that catches the eye is the jumping waistline, I suggest that the D-pillar standing on the waist line when taking pictures has a silver trim with a "dragon scale" pattern, which is the same as the Q2L's "cool cover", which creates a semi-suspended roof effect.
We can also pretend to tease our hair in the back window, look in the mirror, and have a drink in our hands.
5) Get in the car posture
Since it is a capture of getting on the car, it is best to have a dynamic picture. Hands-on practice, sitting in the main driver to pat the whole body legs will be shortened, never advisable.
So I opened the car door and took a back-up view and pretended to be looking back. First, it shows the color-blocked design of the inside of the door panel in a comprehensive way, and second, the standing posture legs will definitely be longer.
We can also shoot in from the corner of the door and the A-pillar, and look ahead, with the current scene of the door, the picture is more layered.
6) Cockpit
Song Pro DM-i has a new set of interior colors: exclusive unicorn brown + sky gray, and the whole series can be optionally glazed jade blue two-tone interior, while top-to-bottom molding soft material wrapping, piano paint panels, wood-grain trim panels and silver chrome strips all enhance the class of the car.
We opened the doors first, the first angle was slightly upwards, and we held the three-panel steering wheel with two-tone stitching in our hands to create the feeling of going out immediately.
The second is the girl's perspective, pull down the makeup mirror, grasp the details of the makeup, the picture will be very lifelike ~
7) Co-driver
I have to say that the one-piece seat design of the backrest headrest is indeed more in line with the curve of the body, and it is more comfortable to sit up. In the first picture, I'll get my body wrapped in the seat and slide the big screen with my hand. Tip: Open the panoramic skylight to shoot from top to bottom, which can frame the cockpit for more detail.
8) Back row
Not only the front seats, but also the comfort level of the second row is quite high, supporting the adjustment of the backrest, and also has three independent headrests, which provide stronger support for the neck. We can naturally rest our heads on the headrest and smile contentedly.
Similarly, keeping the sunroof open, I asked my colleagues to shoot from top to bottom. But after all, it is the back row, and the lighting is not as bright as the front row, so we have to tilt our bodies slightly forward, and the light can fall better on the face, and there will be no dappled light and shadow.
9) Tail compartment
The back row of the Song Pro DM-i supports the proportions to be put down to a flat state. Sitting in the trunk after being laid flat, shooting from the outside of the car to the inside, there will be a strong sense of depth.
For girls, the trunk sitting posture also has a careful machine: do not sit too close to the inside, try to sit outside, one is better light, and the other is not to eat a leg length. It is best to fold the legs up and tilt the legs, and the vertical extension can enhance the visual effect of the length.
Put your drink aside, chase the show with your computer, plus a suitcase ready to go. Bathed in the spring light of March, "stealing half a day of idleness", probably this is the state, right?
Rather than being a means of travel, the car is becoming more and more like a carrier of lifestyle for our daily life. When the car is connected with your heart, whether it is walking through the rush hour of work, or a pleasant weekend, even if you do not have to deliberately study the shooting technique, I believe you can find resonance in the run-in with it. Now, let's go with the Song Pro DM-i!
