Lighting Test: Omega Speedmaster Professional Mark II

chrono-rgthinkcreative

For this next piece I wanted to experiment and see what types of unique lighting effects I could produce using nothing but everyday light sources I had laying around the house.

The Goal: Light a product shot using basic LEDs and a long camera exposure.

The Set-Up: Black backing card, colored LED lights, tripod, pitch black space (walk-in closet floor).

The Process: To get the watch to hold it’s nice natural shape, a ring was cut from the middle section of 2 litre soda bottle and expanded inside the wrist band in an O shape.  Then, the product was placed on a basic black reflective card (from the project folder used in the Water Shot – High Speed Capture shoot) and placed in a pitch black space.  Next, the tripod was set-up directly over the product, lens focus was set, and lights turned off for the LED lighting to begin.  From here it was a basic trial and error, motioning LED lights around the watch at varying distances, speeds, angles, and positions over a 20 second exposure to produce the final results straight from the camera.

Metadata: ISO 100 | 48mm | f/8 | 20.0s

AP Magazine: Spec Cover Shoot

AP spec cover - rgthinkcreative

Last weekend, Justin Bettman & I came together for another collab with Music Artists Shane Gelinas, Like Giants, and Lions! Tigers! Bears!

The Goal: Re-create an AP Magazine cover with similar lighting/style.

The Set-Up: 2 bare strobes, 6 foot octobox, 1 white backdrop; very basic living room shoot.

The Process: Each subject was shot separately and individually lighted based on varying heights, skin tone, and desired rim light/shadow balance. While shooting subjects together saves time, shooting individually makes the photo selection process significantly easier and adding/removing subjects in the final composite is a breeze.  Next, final shots were selected and cut out in post production over an ominous sky background with AP style text overlays.  The results below.

Tutorial: In Progress… check back for updates.

UNCHARTED: Arshie’s Rebellion

UNCHARTED - Arshie's Rebellion - rgthinkcreative

Over Labor Day weekend I had the opportunity to shoot another collaboration with fellow photographer and good friend Justin Bettman.  We came up the concept based off the trailer for Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception meets Angelina Jolie – Tomb Raider.  While shooting in the desert would have been ideal, we stayed local to the Greater Los Angeles area and shot everything in 1 day.  To prepare for the shoot, we took a quick trip to Goodwill and scrounged together a $17 outfit (boots, pants, belt, shirt, & misc. props) for our model Arshaluis Hogikyan, who was an absolute pleasure to work with.  We photographed Arshie on site with a basic dual octobox and a bare flash set-up, and wrapped around 3:00.  From there we drove up to the north side of LA and shot the rest of our elements under natural sunlight.

At the end of the day, Justin and I parted ways to our respective studios to create our own composites, one entirely shot off Justin’d 5D Mark II and another off my 7D to compare.  I was really happy with the way the conceptual video game/movie poster turned out.

Water Drops – High Speed Capture

I shot a mini-series today using an off-camera flash chord and a make-shift studio.  Using a few household items and a little ingenuity (*see if you can spot the spatula) I was able to get some great results straight out of the camera.

Studio Items: 2 black bounce cards (project folders), ziplock bag, needle, electrical tape, cooking tray, water, tripod.

Flash unit: Cannon 430EXII Speedlite & Cannon OC-E3

Flash settings: 1/16th stop

Camera settings: ISO 100, F 8.0, shutter speed 1/250

Mike Williams – 2012 Congressional Candidate

I had the pleasure of meeting up with 2012 Congressional Candidate Mike Williams during his recent California fundraising stretch.  Well educated and very personable, Mike is an outstanding individual and well worth investing in, if not simply  just to strike up an insightful conversation.  Here’s a few shots from before the evening fundraiser:
