Hopefully you've already checked out the beautiful and experimental PREMIUM EXCLUSIVE nude shoot I released 14-days ago, with this beauty, Mirriam? - If not; WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU WAITING FOR???!!! ๐คฏ๐ฅต
It included a lenghty explanation of how the setup was and what techniques we used, so if you're interested in betting behind the scenes, you should go have a look. ๐ค
Last time I posted something with this foreign beauty, Mirriam, it was a minor video we shot, the same day we did this fashion inspired setup. ๐๐ฅ
That was something we planned because we wanted to go in a different direction than our first meeting, which was a shoot for M! Magazine - and now on todays post, it's the exact same story; We wanted to move in yet ANOTHER direction and try something new, we previously didn't do. ๐ช๐ป๐ฅณ
Technically it's once again a shoot in studio, but we did tons of things differently. ๐
The setup was mobile. A studio, but mobile.
We decided to do it at Mirriams place eventhou I knew it had limited space available for me to work with.
I brought along my mobile studio, which consist of a Manfrotto Standbag with 3x Manfrotto Compact Stand to create some sort of 'frame' for the shoot. Instead of a normal 2.75m backdrop I usually go with, I decided to carry along a huge piece of filt-carpet, measuring like 3x3 m or so.
The reason why I went with this, was because I knew that there wasn't too much space to work with and while I knew we were gonna work with minimum one flash, I needed something which didn't reflect too much light. ๐
If you look at the screenshot below, you can see the filt-carpet.
Upon that I placed a sheet of transparrent plastic which both could act as a backdrop (PART TWO of the series), but at the same time Mirriam could be behind it and use it as a "cover" / effect and go nude (PART ONE of the series). ๐๐๐ป
(Above; A photo showing the basic setup which we then manipulated in various ways, to create specific atmospheres and varying the look and feel)
By combining an Elinchrom RX500 flash with a Nanlite Pavotube RX II, you get this fine balance fill- and key light, because it can be hard to see what's what. ๐ Most people will argue that the Elinchrom is the key light, but since it's static and placed the same place all the time, I would argue that the Pavotube in fact actually is the key light and the most important part of the light setup. ๐๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
On wednesday there's a lengthy behind the scenes-video released, for PREMIUM patrons, so look forward to that if you're interessted in getting much more backstage insights. ๐ค
Furthermore, we once again recorded some minor video clips from the second part of this shoot and it was our intension to release it either as a reel or something creative, in the near future. ๐๐ฅ
As always: Please feel free to ask away about whatever you want to know about this shoot! โบ๏ธ Technical stuff, practical stuff, tips or tricks - or simply just let me know what you think. ๐ฅณ๐๐ป
