Seattle Central Creative Academy: Photography Assignment (Glamour Narrative)

April 30, 2012 by Leave a Comment

Three shots in three separate scenes, telling the same story within a narrative series.  It tells the tale of a model of three eras of fashion: the 60s, 80s and modern.  As a model, she’s on the journey of her career.  Although she has it all – the beauty, the clothes, the style and money – she finds herself at a crossroads seeking more, but is subsequently slipping into a lifestyle she’s becoming all-too familiar with.

Seattle Central Creative Academy: Photography Assignment (Fill Light)

April 25, 2012 by 4 Comments

Tobacco-smoked meat; it’s what’s for dinner.  This is my “still-life food” shot for an anti-smoking advertisement.  Originally I sought to make the meat look like a heart hooked and strung-up over a smoking ashtray, but the meat just looks like meat.  Next time, I’ll get a realistic-looking heart and blacken it a little more to show the ill-fated effects of smoking cigarettes.

Window light was the light source to camera left and an off-camera Canon 580EX II Speedlite bouncing off a silver reflector was the fill at camera right.

Location: CK Studio, Bainbridge Island, WA

Camera/Lens Specifics: Canon 5D Mark II with Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro Lens

100mm, 1/10 sec at ƒ/6.3, ISO 100, tripod mount.
