Rack Focus

RACK FOCUS — a single cherry blossom in the foreground is sharp, while the subject stands behind it slightly blurred but recognizable. The shifting focus draws the eye between bloom and woman. Poetic.

Rack Focus

Focus shifts from one subject to another within the same shot. Directs audience attention.

When to use

Static still — to draw attention to one element while suggesting another exists. Common in product, fashion, dramatic close-ups.

Pro tips

  • Say "rack focus, foreground element soft, background subject sharp" (or vice versa)
  • Specify both elements: "foreground flower blurred, woman in background sharp"
  • Use shallow depth of field to make the focus shift dramatic
