I had to previsualize, find a location, bring models/props, light and execute for this pass/fail one shot on-location assignment. A homeless individual, living in squalor with his meager slice of privacy. A dirt bike rider, out for a thrill, looking to shred. The two collide in this scene.
Lit with four lights, I had one Q-flash camera left on the bum’s shelter, two Q-flashes camera right to spotlight and fill the biker, and one Speedlite with a blue gel behind the homeless person.
