Lighting Studio

Group Portrait Shoots, Lighting and editing

We will be using our NEW Lighting equipment to learn about how to properly light the face for portraits by starting shooting in groups. Using both a stationary camera on a tripod and a floating camera, we will use our three lights, Main, Kicker, and Back light to capture FOUR different images that will show:

1. Correct lighting
2. Too warm
3. Too cool
4. High Contrast

We will be working in groups of 4-5 students and will rotate camera duties, posing, and lighting duties. After the shoot, you will be editing YOUR images to show the FOUR categories, so make sure that everyone in your group is responsible for their jobs so you get the best lighting/pictures/examples.

We will talk more in class, but get started, let's see how awesome a lighting studio and portraits can be!
