But first let me take a selfie, Chainsmokers #Selfie
Front cameras are one of the ground breaking achievement that mankind had created. After the creation of front cameras, selfies tag along!
According to touchcatalog.com, these are the steps to take perfect selfies
Have
you ever wondered why your selfies gone wrong ? Or why they looked so
hideous and just ew, weirdo. Perhaps you’ve asked yourself on why
others’ selfies looks so flawless and pretty nice whereas yours looks
like you just had a tornado day. Very well, let me answer your
questions. It all depends on your selfie techniques. Some people born
with pretty face can take selfies without even needing these steps
because oh well,what do you expect from them ? But as of for us with the
so-called ‘unique’ faces, we need those techniques. Curious? Nah-ah !
Follow these simple steps ! Let’s get started !
1. CAMERA
If
taking a headshot, you should not use the front camera on your phone.
Sure, you’ll be able to SEE what your doing, but your picture will come
out grainy. It will be much better quality if you just flip your phone
around and take it with the back camera.
p/s: Iphone's front camera is superb though you don't need to flip either way round !
If taking a #MirrorSelfie, either camera is fine. We don’t need details. We just need the general idea of your blinky outfit. #OOTD
2. LIGHTING
Natural
lighting is obviously the best. Most people take advantage of this in
their cars. I think cars are perfect selfie studios- You can use your
back camera, still see what picture you are taking in the rearview
mirror (you don’t need that for driving), and get natural lighting.
Meant to be.
If
you are in a room with not so good lighting, you can take a lamp and
put it right in front of your face for better lighting.If you feel like
being some kind of photoshoot model,just let a fan or a hairdryer blow
yopur hair to make it looks like a bit...windy. Er..dramatic,aight?
Just don’t let anyone living with you catch you, psycho.
Whew. Okay so now that we have camera and lighting down, its time to…
3. SNAP AWAY
Okay,
girls and boys. This is the part where you take fifty to ninety five
pictures. Every five photos or so, let go of your breath and check your
progress so far. Troublesome, right? I feel you :( Keep snapping. After a
half hour of that, it’s time to analyze these photos. Delete all of the
ugly ones. You should be left with about four now. Six on a good day.
This
is the hardest part. Choosing which picture you upload for all your
insta/twitter/facebook to see. This is the difference between ten and
fifty likes, people. If you’re not a real person online, then you’re not
a person in real life! It’s do or die.
After
spending a disgustingly large amount of time trying to figure out which
one out of the five strikingly similar photos to upload, its time to
choose your…
4. FILTER
Nothing
is worse then those girls who post selfies where all you see is two
beady eyes and an outline of a mouth. Where the fish did your nose go?!
Or your cheekbones?! Do you have any other face?? Everyone looks
attractive when you literally take away their whole face and only leave
blurry eyes and mouth…
Stop over-filtering. #WashedOutSelfie. Half of your face is blurred out in every single picture!! *insert crying smiling emoji* #PetPeeve
We
all know what you’re doing. All we need to do is go to tagged pictures
to see what you really look like… #NotLikeThat #Eeowwww
On another note, I don’t know why I care so much about your selfies but I do.
So pick your filter and then pick your…
5. HASHTAGS
The only person who is allowed to post Instagram/Twitter/whatever selfies with no hashtags is #BEYONCE. Because she can generate followers in other ways like real talent.
But
if you have no talent, you’re pretty boring in terms of worldly
contribution, and have no sense of humor- can you at least for the love
of god use HASHTAGS. There will be no other way for you to generate
follower’s unless you appropriately hash tag your pictures. Nothing is
more sad then under a hundred social media followers #AmIRight #GirlsBeLike #SelfieNation #NoFilter #NaturalBeauty
Any
of the above are fine. Unless you’re trying to advertise the type of
makeup/clothes you’re wearing because you’re insta famous. Then hashtag
the specific brands, duh.
Finally,
you made it. It literally took you all day to prepare this picture. Now
cross your fingers that the likes will go into double digits, or else
you might as well deactivate your account, my friend.
