Episode 12 in production

erin-slate.jpg

We’ve been working hard on the next episode of Digital Photography One on One. Episode 12 is all about simplicity. In our last episode we showed you some basic lighting setups and the response was overwhelming, people wanted more samples. But we also had a lot of e-mail asking if we could show some setups that didn’t use so many lights.

We decided we’d focus on using just a single light. That’s right – all of the lighting setups in episode 12 will feature a single light. To add to the fun we decided that we’d feature different light modifiers, that way you could see the difference between a beauty dish and a softbox, or a large softbox and a small softbox.

We began filming last week and were planning to be finished yesterday. However, we had a couple of scheduling issues so we’re going to have to shoot the last few scenes next week. It’s going to delay the episode a couple of weeks but we think it will be worth it.

To give you a taste of what we’re working on I’ve included a few of the still images from this shoot. Can you guess which light modifiers we used for each of these setups? Remember – these were all shot using a single light (check out our YouTube channel for some hints).

    Interesting, looking forward to the new episode. The last one was really good. I would love to see a “companion post” to the videos with just the setups and photos on the blog, side by side. Would be really helpful, now I just pause the video here and there, but a side by side on the blog might be easier? Thanks.

    I need a prop microphone like you show in one shot. Will you tell me where you purchased it please?
    Thx
