Entertaining Children

Chapter 84 Technical Improvement

Because of his age, when Xiao Yao carried his camera on his back and went out to take street photos on weekends, he had an advantage that adults did not have.

At least when he took pictures of beauties on the street, he wouldn't be treated as a wretched pervert, and when he went into commercial buildings or shops to take pictures of some fun little things, he wouldn't be taken as a commercial spy who spied on business intelligence. On the contrary, because he is young, good-looking, and the equipment on his back looks like that, when strangers face his request to take pictures, there are not many people who refuse him.

In the selection of street shooting locations, Xiao Yao also tried his best to choose some places with a lot of traffic, which are relatively safe and not too fast-paced. For example, pedestrian streets or some famous large commercial buildings and nearby squares. These places are not only safer, but also can find a variety of different types of subjects,

If you can take pictures smoothly and find something to shoot, it will not be difficult to complete fifty high-quality photos per week.

Although Chen Xuan is often not by Xiao Yao's side, he mainly guides Xiao Yao through the Internet, but he is still very concerned about Xiao Yao's study and progress in photography.

Therefore, after two or three months, being satisfied with Xiao Yao's improvement in learning ability and photography level also made Chen Xuan pay more attention to and be strict with Xiao Yao. Correspondingly, the quality and quantity of photos he asked Xiao Yao to take also increased.

With an enlightened teacher and an outstanding apprentice, Xiao Yao's progress is naturally much faster than that of ordinary people.

Almost half a year later, Chen Xuan told Xiao Yao some good websites and forums for photography enthusiasts, and asked him to post his photos on the Internet to communicate with others as a beginner. Listen to the comments of ordinary netizens and other photographers on his works, and then confirm with the photography knowledge taught by Chen Xuan.

As a result, a new face named "Photography Boy" appeared on many amateur photography websites and forums. This guy sends out dozens of photos on different topics every week. Netizens and photographers who have followed this guy for a long time will find that this guy's technology is growing at a speed that is almost visible to the naked eye.

In addition to posting photos on the Internet, reading comments and communicating, Chen Xuan also recommended some photography activities for amateur photographers to Xiao Yao for him to participate in. Many of these activities were learned about by Chen Xuan from the Internet. Most of them will have some interesting themes, and there are many photographers participating, Xiao Yao is mixed among them, but it is not very conspicuous.

So in addition to the Internet, in reality Xiao Yao also started to take pictures as an amateur photographer and communicate with other people. After he came back, he would discuss with Chen Xuan what he had gained from communicating with other people, to see which skills or methods and experience were helpful to Xiao Yao, and which ones Xiao Yao needed to pay attention to avoid.

In the activities of photographers big and small in Yanjing City, a child with a professional camera on his back began to appear. At the beginning, when others saw Xiao Yao, they thought it was some photography enthusiast who brought his son to participate in the event. Xiao Yao was indeed not very attractive. But as time went by and the number of appearances increased, people who often saw him would naturally pay more attention to him.

Although he is young, his equipment is good, and his technology is also worthy of those expensive equipment. This is everyone's most intuitive feeling about Xiao Yao who participated in the activity of amateur photography enthusiasts. Most importantly, once they noticed him, it was easy for everyone to find that this little guy seemed to come by himself every time, and left by himself after the event.

In the circle of amateur photography enthusiasts in Yanjing, this little guy has gradually become a topic of discussion. The photography circle is not very big. If anyone has cultivated such a student, it should be proud to spread it everywhere. It's not that everyone hasn't asked this little guy, but this little guy doesn't talk much, it's not about photography, he basically doesn't talk much.

Therefore, besides knowing that this little guy is named Xiao Zhixing,

How old is he, who is his master, what is his background, what is his identity background, he is completely ignorant.

Xiao Zhixing is not a name that Xiao Yao casually made up. Rather...Xiao Yao's bad taste was committed again, and he changed his name. To be precise, it's not that I changed my name, but I chose another name for myself. According to the specifications in Huaxia's household registration book, there is a column for former names or aliases. Xiao Yao had a whim one day and wanted to fill in this blank. Naturally, his real name was still Xiao Yao, and in the alias column, he asked Xiao Siqi to add a name to his household registration booklet.

The reason why he called Xiao Zhixing is because Xiao Yao, who has recently become obsessed with Ming history, admires Wang Yangming, the number one man in the Ming Dynasty. The core content of the theory of mind put forward by Wang Yangming is the four characters "integration of knowledge and action", so he took "knowledge and action" as his name. Regarding the matter of adding a name, Xiao Siqi, who knew that Xiao Yao had recently been obsessed with reading Ming history, did not feel disgusted. Instead, he teased Xiao Yao and said, "Do you want to learn from the ancients, and have a surname named Xiao Yao named Yao Zhixing?"

Photography technology continues to improve, and the corresponding number of equipment is also increasing. A year later, Xiao Yao had three cameras and seven or eight lenses. Chen Xuan also began to teach Xiao Yao to start taking studio shots and posing.

For the sake of convenience, Xiao Yao simply built a small studio at home because he had a spare room at home. Of course, he couldn't figure it out just by himself. After Chen Xuan heard about Xiao Yao's wish, he specially came to Huaxia to help him figure it out. Although the place is a bit small, not as good as a professional studio, but all kinds of lighting equipment, brackets, reflectors, background panels, etc. are readily available, which can be regarded as "although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs".

After getting out of the small studio at home, there is a place here, and Xiao Yao's models are not difficult to find, and there are two ready-made models at home.

Although Ye Jiaying is not a professional model, she has nothing to say about her figure and appearance, and as a mother, she is extremely patient and cooperative. And taking pictures, as long as they don't look too sorry for the audience, what woman doesn't like it?

Of course there are problems. Ever since Xiao Yao started using Ye Jiaying as a model for studio shoots at home, Ye Jiaying's desire to shop more than tripled, which made Xiao Siqi terrified. Correspondingly, Ye Jiaying's fans also discovered that Ye Jiaying had suddenly become a "photographer + photo shooter" unknowingly. Beautiful photos are posted almost every day on various social network accounts. And it's not the kind of simple selfies, but professional photography photos that can be compared to hard photos of models.

When a photographer takes a photo of a model, it is not simply a matter of pressing the shutter. It is also very important to communicate with the model or the subject in the early stage. Their personalities and physical characteristics need to be fully explored before being shown through photographs.

Xiao Yao lives with Ye Jiaying, and when it comes to understanding Ye Jiaying, no professional photographer is likely to be as good as him. While Xiao Yao kept taking pictures, he was also constantly digging out the unknown characteristics of Ye Jiaying, and then showed them through the photos he took.

Through these photos, everyone also discovered that Ye Jiaying is far more than the images shown to everyone before. Whether it is noble, elegant, cold, stubborn, sexy or fresh, Ye Jiaying's performance in the photos is all eye-catching. Also because of this, Ye Jiaying has more types of film appointments, more photography invitations from various fashion magazines, and even the price of endorsement contracts has increased, which can be regarded as the clothes and accessories she wants to buy because of the skyrocketing shopping. It's worth the money.

With the example of his wife in front of him, Xiao Siqi became much more interested in being Xiao Yao's model. He even offered to hand over to Xiao Yao the responsibility for the cover photos of the new album and the photos of various promotional posters in the future. Of course, unlike the photos that Ye Jiaying used to post online for free, these commercial photos of Xiao Siqi require money.

However, Xiao Siqi's album photo is not Xiao Yao's first income from taking pictures. After a year of study and training, among the photos that Xiao Yao sent to Chen Xuan, some of them have already reached a certain professional level. And Chen Xuan also picked out some of the photos he liked, and recommended them to some magazines and periodicals that he was familiar with or had a cooperative relationship with.

Since most of these are some magazines and periodicals in Europe and America, Xiao Yao gave himself an English name "Young Shaw" in an international way. The signature of the photo is simply the abbreviation "YS".

At the age of nine, a talented young photographer whose photographic works can be published in professional photography magazines is rare even in Europe and the United States. But neither Xiao Yao himself nor Chen Xuan specifically mentioned YS's age when pushing photos to those magazines. The reason is also very simple, whether it is Xiao Yao or Chen Xuan, they all hope that Xiao Yao's photography works can be selected, just because the works themselves are good enough, not because of the influence of Xiao Yao's age to get some kind of bonus. For a whole year, the European and American fashion circles and photography circles did not know the exact age of this newcomer photographer YS who suddenly appeared. Except for the full name "YoungShaw", all they knew about YS was this The guy is Chen Xuan's student.

But one year later, Chen Xuan had to announce YS's age. Because Chen Xuan won a very rare job opportunity for Xiao Yao, and if he wanted to get this job, he had to tell others the real age of YS.

"What did you say? Eva Show?" Xiao Yao said to the phone in surprise.

"Yes." Chen Xuan on the other end of the phone said triumphantly, "How is it? Although Master, my birthday present is a bit late, but it is definitely enough, right?"

Of course enough! The Eva show in this world is the Victoria's Secret fashion underwear show in Xiao Yao's previous life. Not only the top show in the fashion world, but also... lingerie show!
