TesT ShOoT

Above images without gels

Above images so use of different colour gels

To create the desired effect , for the final shoot a few options are available which include the following

  • Printing on to acetate
  • Creating stencils from acetate of large pieces of mount board

Whilst using the white back drop , holding a black stencil in front of the light... the idea worked but a few problems occurred

  • the shadow was less visible when held a far distance from the back drop
  • when placing the stencil closer the effect was more visible producing a stronger shadow, the only thing is that whilst having the stencil placed close it would become part off the image.
Trying out the stencils on acetate proved to be a problem as it didn't produce a clear shadow
es we came to the conclusion that lighting was added from different angles instead of straight on.

Referring back Solve sundsbo's work the we came to the conclusion that light must have came from various angle and directions rather straight .

Trying light from the angles allowed the stencil to be placed as close as possible to the model, allowing mark to shoot from face on. Therefore the stencil can be cropped from the images .

So for creating the stencil ..... the use of A1 MOUNT BOARD , which can be large enough to shadow the model and thick enough to produce a shadow, and allows use to select our own designs.
