Camera: Nikon D2X with 50mm lens, set on tripod 2,4m from the child. Shot at 1/60, f8, ISO 100.
Lighting: Since Loretta’s goal is to create an super-flat image, no key lighting exists. All of the lights are used to flatten the child’s skin tones, while leaving a hint of shadow (under his chin). 2 white umbrellas at f5.6 1/2 are 2m to both camera right and left, and 1,2m above the boy’s head. 2 normal reflectors on a light tree at f4 1/2 are bounced into the white side of a wall in a flat and placed behind camera, just to the right. Another 2, with the exact setup, are just to the left. This helps to fill most of the shadow.
Comments: For lunch, the caterer served fish sticks, chicken strips, carrot strips, apple strips and ketchup. The boy had been beating like a maniac on the drum, but stopped abruptly, here, when Loretta told him her real name is.
