Studio Class - Week Two Shoot...

exploring the relationship between light and how it effects the emotive nature of photography.
we decided on a few themes for the days shoot. Evil, loss & greed. Although we only really explored evil as it was the only theme i had brought props in for. I decided to go with the crazy lumberjack look as i thought it was easy to portray with my grotesque facial hair.
Using a simple light setup of one light with softbox to the right of the subject. It's interesting to see how the lighting strategy can create an eerie, mysterious feel. And combined with the subjects emotive physical traits, can really represent a strong feel of the theme of evil...

Some of these shots are quite descriptive in emotion and feeling although the angle at which they are taken is a little static.



I particularly like the action shot, it's kind of what i had in mind before the shoot, and it was only by accident i think that it was actually taken.
