Role Reversal

Image
Role Reversal While it is a known fact that lighting is essential to photography, a lot of times artificial light is used as a substitute for natural sunlight. Although it doesn't seem like it, this shot was taken at 7 in the evening. With a speedlight and some makeshift blinds, this looks like it was taken no later than sunset. To add drama to the shot, old venetian blinds were placed 3 feet in front of a speedlight to get the shadow lines. Taking more than two dozen shots, it was not an easy effect to pull off. Good lighting and dependable gear made it possible. Gear List: Tronix Explorer XT Tronix Speedfire Makeshift Venetian Blinds Here's how it was done: A member of the team puts together makeshift blinds Unable to get the ideal shadows after several tests, the shoot took quite a while but the Explorer XT and the SpeedFire lasted through the shoot, providing power & faster recycling time just like it is connected to AC/wall socket

Windy Day

Windy Day Marilyn Monroe made this shot famous more than 5 decades ago. Although she was the center of attention, it was the wind that made the shot so special. Some people don't realize that it would take a really strong gust of wind to create that effect. In this version, an air blower was set underneath the model to get the same result. Imagine what a hassle it would be to have to wait for a windstorm and shoot in it! Gear List: Tronix Portable Air Blower Tronix Auxiliary Battery Here's how it was done: Tronix Portable Air blower placed underneath the model to get that extra windy look Tronix Portable Air blower plugged into the Tronix Auxillary Battery
