In this video, John McWade talks about cropping techniques
and how they are used to manipulate images in a design. He focuses on the 7
kinds of cropping, which consist of the hard crop, soft crop, split crop,
stickout crop, the knockout crop, false crop, and shape crop. Each crop
technique is unique and are used according to the feel the designer is trying
to illustrate through his design. I’ve used most of these crop techniques at
some point in my designs, but I’ve never realized how much I’ve favored some
techniques over the others. John showed me how using certain techniques can
strengthen a design through simple crops or even radical interesting ones. All
in all, this was a great, informative video that explained these techniques
very well.
