Assignment 1 - the shoot!


When we did the original shoot, the only issue we has with it was that the face came out a little dark. We had used a reflector originally to kick in a little light in the eyes. But it wasn't enough. So on the day of the shoot, we added a speedlight with a small shoot through umbrella to add some light to the face. With that light, we no longer needed the reflector. So we got rid of it. Aside from that, the lighting setup remained the same. Not mentioned in the original write up, the ambient light at ISO 200 and f8 required a shutter speed of 1 second. So it was a non-factor.
The main problem we faced in the shoot was that the blinds where we originally had set up were not cooperating. Fortunately, we had an identical setup 20 feet away. Not usually going to be the case.
