You need to produce six photos for Tuesday’s class. (I’ll give you the first 30 minutes to process and post to the server.)
With one light, a portrait with the background one stop darker and another, different portrait with the background two stops darker.
With two lights, one with the background one stop darker, one at two stops darker, a third at an even exposure and a fourth with the background two stops brighter.
For each set-up, you need to create a simple lighting diagram – an overhead drawing that shows the location of the camera, subject, background and light(s). You need to measure out the distances between the light and subject and light and background. You need the exposure information from the light meter.
Shoot all of this in a darkened space at ISO 100 – no ambient light on this, all flash. If you want to bounce off of walls instead of the umbrellas for some, that’s fine.
Questions? Shoot them to me …
