  • Test Shoot with Demi!

    Sometimes Photoshop is kind of used as a bad word, but I find it to be a fabulous conceptual tool… to me photography can be a beautiful way to capture a moment authentically, however, expressing an idea should never be limited to only capturing authentic moments.  I love bringing whimsy into my images, and I don’t care if that whimsy comes from real-world objects, or visual surprises created after the fact.

    Elements of both styles are conveyed in this test shoot with Demi from last week, I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we enjoyed making them!

    Most of these were lighted using an Elinchrom Beauty Dish as the main light – which carves Demi’s face so, so beautifully.

  • Duotone Tutorial

    Ever notice how most digital black & whites look sort of washed out?  That’s because they’re using what an off-set printer would call an “unsupported” black.  When a graphic designer wants a pure, rich black they use a black “supported” with additional inks making a dark silky black instead of a sort of dark grey that would appear if you used just black ink.

    Well, the same principle applies to black and white photos. By blending additional inks into your black and whites you get a richer tonal range which gives you more details in your highlights… a complaint many film shooters have about digital images.

    Take a look at these for example, a black and white made by just desaturating the colors vs. a duotone (or tritone) image.  As you can see by using additional inks you can create black and whites with a lot more visual appeal.

  • Stereo 3D FIlmmaking Bootcamp

    Stereographic filmmaking is the newest craze in Hollywood, in spite of the fact that 3D has been around almost as long as conventional cinema. Shooting a 3D film has become much more accessible in these days of digital video, miniature cameras and affordable digital editing systems. In this webinar, presented by award winning IMAX cinematographer James Neihouse, you will learn the basics of 3D/Stereo cinematography, beginning with the terminology then stepping though the process and methods of shooting in 3D. You will learn about 3D rigs, setting up the cameras, the effects of interaxial distance (the distance between the lenses), convergence of the cameras, screen size, and 3D editing techniques.
