Chromes From Studio shoot 3



The first image is the same as the second with plus 1.5 stops of exposure. The reason for this was to make the image "higher key" or brighter.

The second image is of our normal exposure with belows extension factored in, the settings were 1sec at f/11.5. Before the belows extension our meter reading was 1/25 sec at f/11. We added two stops due to the large distance light would need to travel from lens to film.

Roids Studio Shoot 3





So glass master Richard hit the ball out of the park with our latest shoot. Rich framed and composed where I did the grunt work. Above are the Polaroids from our shoot. There are minor adjustments between the three, mainly dealing with negative space issues and controlling the reflections from the rear bottles. All in all the shoot went good. Rich dropped of the film and we'll see how they come out tomorrow.

Beer Glass Study


To better understand how comercial photographers shoot glass I did some reseach online. Like I mentioned in a previous post looking at the beverage photos at restraunts is my favorite way to pass the time while waiting for my food. Finding the images were a lot easier than finding hammer shots. Richard is experienced in shooting beer bottles so I can't wait to learn from his previous experiences.

To see images I found online check out this link.
