It's a Composite

2008-04-27T10:17:00.001-07:00

Client want to have a classy portrait of himself in a Hong Kong busy night.

It's raining and the ambient light in the location is quite strong

So there is noway to capture both slow motion cars lighting tail and him in one shoot.

I have decide to make 2 shoot and composite them in post production.

My idea is the 2 shot must be in same angle / location / focus length ... to result a more natural look.

Volex Annual Report PART I - Group shot

2007-11-19T14:36:00.001-08:00

Assignment for create new images for their annual report. Images include a few portrait of the directors, group shoot of the board of directors, key people working inside their facility.

Since we don't have a location scouting before the assignment, so we need to bring more then enough equipments by my experience.

The group shoot

Since the client want more traditional group shot instead of some creative one.

Inside the facility there is only a small lobby that can do that, it is because the wall already have Volex logo and some poster frames with their corporate color (as the client request), so we choose that as the backdrop, but there is a problem ... the right side of this lobby is a big grass window and grass door, it's the main entrance of the facility. So the lighting in the right side is out of control (sun light), and the left side of the room is petty dark.

We start setup ... while the directors in the board meeting.

I ask my assistant as the target, and stand in the different position of the directors suppose to be, balance the lighting and ensure every face to be well lighted .

Finally we need to find the way to light the super dark right conner of the logo.

Lighting Setup

2 x 600w mono head
1 x 300w mono head in background
