Test Shoot

As part of my fujifilm assignment, I have completed a test shoot in order to try and gain the style of image I am planning on creating. I am very pleased with the outcome and now need to complete a second shoot to work out the settings I am going to need to use for the film I choose to use. 



I set my camera to 400ISO, 1/125, with an aperture of f11. I had my model at a distance from the backdrop with one soft-box offset to the front of her. I felt that to start with, my images were too over exposed so I dimmed the flash slightly which worked a lot better with my images. My flash was set around mid way.

Photographer Research


    

I have recently been working on an assignment with the title of, Fujifilm Awards - The Colour Of... For this assignment we are aiming to produce some final images on film to send off for the Student Awards Competition 2013.
To gain inspiration, I have been looking at the work of, Warwick Saint, Brian Cummings and Ira Chernova. The reason I have looked at these photographers work for inspiration is because I am theming my assignment on tattoos and all three of these photographers have some very strong yet different styles of images containing tattoos.
