Hello my Sweethearts!
Very soon you'll see two most desirable posts of month - Rewards post.
But before that I wanted to rease you a bit more, because I still need a bit of time to finish everything properly. It was very hard project to pull off, that's why I want to make sure that our Succubus will look as I imagined )
To boost your interest a bit more, I want to share with few photos from Succubus backstage. I really like photos from it, because project was shown a bit from other angle.
Backstage on set helps to show us, what angles we didn't use or didn't think of at the moment. Because me and Tao have different approaches on projects, composition and angles, it really helps. Also having two photographers helps to boost our efficiency. When I'm getting tired or running out of ides (sometimes even with the plan you need to improvise), we change lead positions and vise versa.
So if you are photogrpher, I really recommend to find assistant (his/her level will depend on your personal preferences, but it must least what you need to seek).
After all equipment weights a lot, hehe )
Since I have very little time to write, I want to share on how and what we used on set for succubus. I decided to use flash with colored filters to imitate sun (two for different sun positions). Softbox with flash on low power, just to lighten up a bit set and hard shadows on model. Another flash with filters we used to imitate candles light, because natural light from them is very weak, even with long exposure (we used about 45 small candles and 3 big). Two flashlights were used mainly to light up eyes and show more facial expression. Our last Loki photoshoot showed us, that using only them can be bothersome later on pre-production. Our cameras are too old and their Raw files don't have much info when its too dark )
I hope this info will help my photography Friends here, if you are my colleague or decided to make something beautiful on your free time )
By the way, I'll be very happy, if you'll want to share with your works or ideas with me. Neither you photographer or not. Artistry is voice of the heart ) If we can improve, let's improve toghether!
For now, please have great day and hope you'll be patience a little bit more. )
P.S.: After few years, I finally can upload more photos in post's cap ) Patreon evolves, yey )
