Working with Uncured<\/span><\/a><\/span>, doing promotional photos of the band members. They wanted a variety of photos in the studio, but with a dramatic look and with splashes of color. With that in mind, we kept the lighting consistent … but changed out the gels for the various sequences. The idea was to get a variety of looks in terms of the colors and how the light fell … and be able to make the changes quickly, without requiring long setup times.<\/p>\n The pullback shot will show the lighting setup: For the main photo shown at the top, there was a gridded 3ft Octa without a gel. But for other sequences, I had this light switched off so that the gelled lights would dominate, as can be seen in the 2nd photo.<\/p>\n We swapped out gels for the various flashes, and changed the power on the flashes to give different look within this studio setup.<\/p>\n camera :\u00a0Sony A1<\/a> (Amazon<\/em><\/a> \/ B&H<\/a><\/em>) Also check out this previous post, where I show photos of the band but using continuous lights for colorful, dramatic portraits in the studio<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Studio lighting : gridded stripboxes and gels Working with Uncured, doing promotional photos of the band members.
