ALP ass3 final

1. What worked well for you on this assignment:

The model and the chosen location, the ring flash was ok.

2. What you would change in your preparation if you had the opportunity to go back and do it again:

I would have gotten a more powerful ring flash

 3. What you would change in your Photographic Approach  if you had the opportunity to go back and do it again:

Used a couple of different lighting approach and maybe using one more flash with a beauty dish.

10 items listed: 

1- I use the available light, used my ring flash as a main

2- I did used my 85 mm f 1.2

3- I shot F10 

4- I shot at  1/30th

5- I did need any available light for a fill

6- My ring flash wasn't powerful enough

7- It was a cloudy day

8- No need to filter since it was daylight

9- I did the white balance in capture one with my grey card.

10- Should have brought another flash

The whole idea is simple yet powerful, 6 years after the shooting at dawson are the student any safer? Do they have any new safety features or plan if it happens again. Is name is Larry Shinberg and he was present when the shooting happened. He was quite scared and was surprised that something like this would happen here in Montreal and or in Canada, he was also quite angry that even after the Poly technique massacre that the authorities didn't have quick response plan.

1.What is your intention in terms of how you plan to use the available light?

I plan on using the available light as a fill and for the background.

2. What is the reason for your lens choice?(Do you want the compression of a long lens or the exaggerated perspective of a wide angle, fixed focal length or zoom)?

I will be using a fixed 50mm f1.4 Zeiss standard lens because I want a classic style portrait with no distorsion or compression. I want it to look like that's what we see with our eyes.

3. What aperture do you plan to use and why?  Explain!

I will use f11 or f13 because I want the background to be sharp, I don't want a shallow depth of field, it's too easy and expected.

4. What shutter speed to you plan to use and why?  Explain!

Since I'm shooting at f11-f16 I will need a slower shutter speed so I can get my ambient light in my shot. probably around 1 sec on tripod.

5. Do you have enough available light to achieve these camera settings?

Yes I do.

6. Do you have enough strobe to achieve these settings?

Yes I will use a ring flash 1000watt

7. What type of available light will you be encountering?

sun 

8. How will you be addressing this mixed light situation?

I have a light color meter so first thing I will do is meter the ambient and depending on what I get I will put the necessary gels on my ringflash, also do 1 shot with a grey card

9. Are there any technical problems that will need to be addressed at the shoot or in post-production?

With my shot with the grey card I will be able to color balance in capture one.

10. What is the equipment you will need for the shoot? 

Camera, 50mm lens, color meter, light meter, LB and CC gels, grey card, tripod, extension cords, laptop, pocket wizards, spare batteries, model, reflector just in case.
