- Photo Assignments! This is number 11 and it deals with a photography composition technique called "Subframing". Essentially subframing is using elements in your composition to frame up the subject - its like a picture in a picture. There are many ways to use this technique, you can be subtle or more obvious, but its an excellent way to create more depth in your photography composition.

My name is Ted Forbes and I make videos about photography. I’ve been making photographs most of my life and I have a tremendously deep passion for photography that I want to share with you on CZcams.
The Art of Photography is my channel and I produce photography videos to provide a 360 degree look into the world of making images. We all want to get better so lets do this together!
I make videos covering famous photographers, photography techniques, composition, the history of photography, philosophy and much more.
I also have a strong community of photographers who watch the show and we frequently do social media challenges for photographers to submit their own work. I feature the best and most interesting on the show when we do these so come check it out and get involved! - Věda a technologie
Great stuff, Ted. Always a fan of your videos like this.
Thanks Matt!
This is so epic to me!! Matt Day, Peter McKinnon and Ted Forbes. I'm proud of you guys.. your are my top youtubers! Thanks for being so human in each video, you inspire me not only to improve my photography career but also to makes me a better person in general.
Thanks for the trouble you take to illustrate your points with the work of other photographers Ted. I take notes as I watch and then go and investigate the work of the people you mention - this is a real classroom on CZcams and I appreciate it all mate!
Sir, You dont know what u r doing for the photo community.... u r just awesome...thank god i found u in this saturated world of one kinda photography channels .....Thank you ..i wish u all the success.. :)
I had the chance to watch this again. I am in a much better place medically and am amazed at how much I missed. I'm grateful you have all these videos archived to rewatch. Thank you.
I looove subframing !! I actually did a paper for uni about subframing in movies. Thought you were gonna mention Gregory Crewdson tho !
Keep up the good work
I love subframing. Discovered it about hald a year ago, i think it wiledly improved my photo compositions.
Okay this is one of my favorite accounts. I like how you breakdown everything, even going to the extent of giving examples. Made the cut, big ups! 👌👏👏
thanks i love your video! been watching your channel over the whole afternoon and it is so insightful. so many great videos
This is great stuff, as always! I can not say enough how useful, inspirational and instructional these videos have been to my own photographic expressions.
Subframing is my JAM!!! All day everyday. Well not literally, but, yeah. You get it. Kbye.
Peter!
You did a good job covering that subject in your video a while ago! :D
Jam on bro! ;-)
hey Pete!
What's not your game? lol.. awesome videos that you post.. Keen follower all way from Kenya ;)
I'll have to start using this technique! Thanks for making this awesome video :)
Photo assignment appears the day before I go to DC for the week? Good timing.
Another great episode. I love sub framing. I've noticed for a long time now that you're using the white fabric in the background of your videos to add the effect yourself. Well done sir.
Excellent description and examples - appreciate the thought that went into this!
I do enjoy watching your videos - a ton of inspiration for me forcing me to look for different things other photographers will pick to shoot plus in a very different way
Very excited about this assignment. This is a technique I love.
This video is amazing! I had NO idea that a technique like subframing existed; I've already made some subjectively good photos using this technique... Thank you for making this video, it's massively appreciated!
Definitely participating in this one! Thanks for doing this!
Loved the examples in the video. They are just perfect. These photos are very, very good. Thank you!
Love the talk on composition theory - hoping for more in the future!
Great series. Here I am in 2021 having rediscovered photography during lockdown and just found all these.
thank you thank you thank you!
Never stop doing this
I didn't notice that many shots i have taken in the past was token by this technic, i will participat in the assignement and show them to you. Thank you for making youtube more and more infirmative
Love the photo assignments. I've been too busy lately to participate, but I do enjoy watching them.
This is great stuff Ted. I've watched it twice. Keep up the good work man 10\10.
One of the most informative videos I ever watched. Great work!
Definitely subscribed after watching this! Looking forward to trying some of your photo assignments!
Photo Assignments!!! Yes!!! I love seeing work of other photographers
Love your videos Ted and i plan to participate for the first time! Excited
Fantastic lesson!! Very simple and well illustrated. Many thanks for this video.
Craig's photos are insane ! ❤️
One of the most useful tutorials I've seen! Thanks!
Learned this from Peter McKinnon awhile back (actually it was my first PM video and now I'm hooked). I've been playing with it a lot recently and I love it! I'm totally loving all these photo assignments too! They make it easier and way less intimidating to try out new techniques, especially for someone who is just starting out like me and slowly working their way up.
Your crisp, in depth, easy-to-understand descriptions of images rule. And great haircut.
Yes! Another photo assignment! So excited for this one! Thanks Ted!
I looove subframing !! I actually did a paper for uni about subframing in movies. Thought you were gonna mention Gregory Crewdson tho !
Keep up the good work
Again a top video, Ted! Well done.
Great, I learn a lot from your videos.
Out of the box again Ted, great stuff..............
I found you through Peter McKinnon. Amazing channel.
Grabbing a few new friends tomorrow to do some street photography in downtown San Antonio. I look forward to applying all these new techniques. Thanks.
Participated in a workshop with Six Street Under a couple of weekends ago, top stuff! 👊
your videos are awesome and i wanted to say thank you!
Excellent video, as always!
Excellent..great presentation & content, MANY THANKS
Learned something new from you. Very positive for me. Thanks
I actually learned a lot. Thanks!
Def going to try this when I go to San Juan
When comes of serious photography learning on CZcams, it is you, Ted, John Free and Sean Tucker who matter the most. And of course any videos containing Bruce Gilden (yes, I love him!), Jay Maisel and a serious of B&H videos are also gold. Thank you for the priceless information and teaching.
Very interesting! Definitely a great video and well illustrated.
This is SO good.
Cool assignment!
This is so so helpful. Thank you so much ❤️
If you ask me.
Much has changed in 5 years.
Of course.
Your way of talking is nowadays much slower, has much more humour in it.
I'm unsure whether to remake these videos.
You've become a much cooler presenter than back in the days.
Beautiful stuff!!
Another really amazing tutorial. Thanks so much for doing these. That pic of the statue of liberty was simply amazing.
I tried this Subframing before but you made me want to take it to the next level. It is very interesting and I think it will challenge me on the street.
Great video, super informative as usual!
Interesting, this is something I do from time to time, although never realised there was a name for it!
This was extremely helpful.
Funny timing of this challenge. Just last Friday I took a picture at work of a construction worker operating a boom lift on the ground level, framed through a drainage hole on the unfinished second story concrete wall of a new building I'm working on.
Great video, Ted.
I really enjoy your channel and follow you on instagram Mr Perello. My street photography has improved because of you. Just wanted to say thank you.
Wow! So this is what the composition technique is called
well said. learnt so much
love you ted!! your awesome! if your ever in amsterdam...
youre so bad ass. favorite show right now.
Really interesting and exciting, thank you
Paul Strand's New England photos really uses sub-framing a lot
Cool. I subscribed and love the idea
Participating at this one!
Hello Ted:
what Scale element means in composition, is basically three things. (apart the famous rule of thirds)
1º a big subject make it look like if was small
2º a small subject make it look as if it was big
3º when you are in in front a big landscape i.e. a reference as the human body or well know animal figure helps to get an idea on how big is the landscape
Nice you mention it, cause very few knows that elemental rule of the visual message :-) the photos you analyzed have more to said than just the framing (some have lines created by shadows which produce a certain inquietud in the viewer and more to said about dynamic or leading, some could be better with a tone play to create a little more depth, i don´t know you but my first encounter was when you analyzed the Leica DG Panasonic 12 mmm f/1.4 glass, which is really a very special lens for MFT loved the way you explain and your examples.
I have learn composition from Jose b. Ruiz and of courses Dondis, cheers
I love @sixstreetunder!!! one of my fav instagrams
i actually heard it made a great interesting photo to blur people in the front ground with subject in back. now you say its a no no but somehow this guy made it work? i heard that blaring people in front is the way to do it man.
I love Robert Frank's work an amazing photographer ... The subframing master ... Thanks for the great video . Did Saul Leiter use a lot of subframing ?
Cool, thx
Thanks 💜
Hey! Ive been a fan of the channel for a while now, and Im not particularly a photographer but Im an architect working with 3D modeling and rendering. Sometimes I feel like expressing more than the obvious 2 point perspective looking flat to a room. Do you have tips for architecture compositions? Either interior or exterior
Think you need to get back to setting assignments again please Ted. Really helpful.
awesome exploration of a great technique! fully expected you to drop some Saul Leiter on this one, though, as that feels like a bread and butter technique of one of your [many ;)] favorite photographers. thanks for your great work!
Oooooooh I like this a lot
I would like to request, in addition to the weekly assignments, a monthly assignment so those of us who shoot film can participate too, without feeling we've come late to the game.
Grampa Smurf I second that idea also!
Love this!!!!!immediatly start working on it! For this subframing topic I took a video of the latest exhibition of Daido Moriyama and its main photo was exactly a subframing self portrait(can't put the link of my video or the comment will be considered as spam). @Ted what is your personal experience with subframing ?
cool!
I shall try it out! I would love to participate! i shall get some photos to you soon =] I got my camera 4 months ago but have been practicing everyday and learning as much as I can
Hi Ted, where do I submit my photo if I get a chance to do some shooting this week? Thanks. Love all of your videos.
I won't get anything in on time but this was an awesome explanation.
liked your story board :)
not bad
Could you point me to the soundtrack you used here? Thank you Ted :)
Cool cool
I love the work of Robert Frank
Tweeted a question regarding 4 of my photos, just to confirm I understood subframing correctly.. Thanks 😊
Hmmmm… not seeing it Waleed…
Thank you 😊
Another great photo assignment to which I'll try my best to participate, last time the film came back just on the day you released the video .Also one thing I noticed is that if I get to your video when not logged in ,everything both title and description are in broken Italian ,I assume that they are translated automatically by google translate. I just wanted to tell you so that you know .Morevover I wanted to ask you a suggestion, I wanted to buy a book on the history of photography do you have any recommendations? Thank you in advance , and now I'll go out shooting to avoid wasting time
Hi Ted, Love what you do, how about the theme funny?
Hey, how do you take the photos from the web, there is no good way to download them and save the good quality
When can one expect photo assignment 11 to be released just so i don't miss it?
I am currently separated from my camera and school prevents me from spending too much time on shoots right now. I have a handful of pictures that fit the assignment already. Can I use those??
Thanks
Advanced photo for me.
But I understand
Thanks
Would you consider micro-framing sub-framing?
Great!! I'm subscribed to a lot of CZcams channels. Most of them get boring after a while. Not yours though. Allways interesting stuff here. Thank you.
You've 2 pages now. 1: "Ted forbes" and 2nd: "The Art Of Photography". Where should I post my assignment?
Its confusing - sorry. Post to either one. I will check them both. The new one is for Facebook Watch which hasn't really been turned on yet so it feels like a second page.
Thank you for replying! I will post on "Ted Forbes" since I'm following that one.
Ohoh. I promised I'd participate in the next assignment... Ok... Got to charge my batteries and pick up my camera... Brain already started thinking.... * nice *
Tell me your flickr name so I can follow you.
