Student’s Lowkey setup
My students may only use one light when they start in the first year. One of the students of the group on Thursday evening have found a light setup on the Flickr community using one light to create a wrap aroud effect on the model. We’ve placed one strobe in the background pointed to a white board .The front side is black. Besides this board there where two white boards placed in an angle so the light from the strobe will bounce onto these boards to give the side effect.By using a white reflector ,with a hole in it, (for the camera) the front of the model will be lit. Measuring the light: aiming the meter to the white boards.Thanks to Raoul for the light setup, Bert as victim-model and Andy as photographer.
Katja Helsen’s Glass Soundtrigger
One of my students, Katja, have made a soundtrigger to catch these pictures when they are moving and hitting the wall.In her garage, she constructed a little studio. A flat surface, which is not placed horizontally, serves as a glider for a skateboard on which five glasses are glued. The correct distance is calculated for the startingpoint of the skateboard.When the board hit the wall, the microphone picks up the sound and that triggers the camera. By using backlighting, Katja creates a black border and the transparency of the glass. A nice touch, she uses food colouring chemicals for the effect in the glasses. Here you can find how you can make a soundtrigger. Have fun!
