Challenge: The art of cropping

Challenge: The art of cropping

- [Instructor] This is the final challenge for this course and actually not that much of a challenge, more of a practice. What I'd like you to do is get hold of two L-shaped pieces of paper or card and use them to examine images and scenes to change the crop. You'll see that, by moving them around, you can change aspect ratio with them. You can change size and focus in on what you think is important in the images you're using. It's a good thing to do and something you will probably never stop doing, although the card is like training wheels and, once your eye gets accustomed to it, you kind of don't need the card anymore.
