Marlene Dietrich
When doing my Hollywood style images I wanted to recapture the image in the left but when I come to do it the lighting was actually really simple so my tutor wanted me to do something a little bit more difficult so I chose the image on the right.
The contrast in the second image isn't as great as the first but there is a lot more different grey tones.
This is the photograph I took to practice getting the pose right but I did this when I was doing my original image. However when it came to changing my image I didn't have time to do a practice shot, I had to just hope for the best.
To the left is my lighting diagram of how the lights where set up in the studio to photograph this shot.

The image below is my original image that I took but I had to take 10 images to get it right. The lighting isn't 100% but it was the best could get it plus we ran out of time.
The image I wanted to recreate with my attempt of creating it.

I struggled with editing my image because its been a while since iv edited photographs thoroughly as I don't really like editing my image. However I am really happy with the outcome because I think I captured it quite well and it turned out a lot better then what I expected it to.




Great attempt at you're Hollywood Publicity image, the Lighting looks good just lost a bit of your models right eye but positioning of the camera from above looks perfect. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback Katie :) I didn't notice the shadow on her right eye was so dark until I uploaded the image onto the mac & I was unable to pull it back it Photoshop, never mind at least I know to look more into it next time. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Aimy,
ReplyDeleteGood attempt, but as you say, the lighting is not a perfect match. Pose and angle looking good, however. You should have made a test shot (for pose) before we went into the studio, and also I need to see a lighting diagram
