Lovely yet simple bit of interaction by Lab 212

Had a fun time today doing a film shoot with all the lovely people at Splinter . Managed to turn their meeting room into a small photography/ film studio. The idea for the shoot was to film the subject on a completely bleached out white background.

We did the shoot on a Sony EX3 XD Cam camera using the 1080 25p settings. Using a pure white Calumet backdrop, we used a couple of Ianaro redheads (with scrim) to bleach the white background to the effect we were after. We then used a couple of Bowens with Soft Light boxes on to act as a Key and Fill light on the subject. Then to round off, we used one of the redheads to back light the subject to create a bit of depth in the frame. We used Senheisser Radio mics for the audio.

Thanks to Claire from Splinter for looking after us with the brews.

Just posting a short cut to my uploaded Keynote presentations on the beta version of Mac’s iWork.com The presentations are for the 1st day back at the Liverpool Community College where I teach on the Foundation Degree and BTEC Level 3 Course. You will need an invite to watch the presentations but by all means, give me a shout and I will send you an invite.
