Most likely, removing photos, music files and movie files will get you the best results. Also you should know that if your HD gets too full the computer can stop functioning and then you have a real problem.
Here are some more things you can do to clear space on your HD:
• Empty the Trash in the Dock.
• Empty the trash in the Photos app.
• Delete unused and unneeded installers from your downloads folder and desktop.
• Transfer files that you don’t use daily to an external drive. Files that take up the most room are movies, images and music.
• Force Time Machine to delete local snapshots:
