Hi Team. Last week was the end of school holidays and I had a kids variety/dance concert to shoot so I invited #1 son to accompany me as assistant. Apart from shooting the show we also had to shoot a head-shot of each performer in their performance make-up. We arrived well before the show but it was still chaotic, the only place to set up for the head-shots was on stage as the stage/sound/lighting tech run was in full swing. I managed to set up my lights out of the way but kids still bumped them so I had a bit of inconsistency on the fill and the coloured stage lights above us were being turned on sporadically so it was interesting to say the least.
Whilst I set up lights I had #1 Son standing in as model/assistant. It's one of the few times when he has been aware of a camera pointed directly at him and he has maintained a natural composure so I'm quite taken with this shot. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9304908/temp/IMGL72760-001.JPG K3 DA50-135/2.8 @ FL 135mm f7.1 illuminated using 2 x Elinchrom BXRi 500, 44cm white beauty dish and centre diffuser as key, standard 16cm reflector as side fill. This pic is from the camera jpg not edited but for the resizing. PS he had a hair-cut the next day :) Cheers, Rob -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
