REFLECTIONS: Photography Experimentation

02:04 , 0 Comments

During my exploration on how to portray the physical form, i managed to create two central photographs:

THE DIGITAL HEAD

Originally used for a pre-visualization, i created these two images using a digital model of a head and 3D animation software:

Even though these were just a lighting reference, Rosie really liked them.

After further experimentation, i managed to come up with these:

However, both these experiments did not fit in with my original idea, so i'm not so sure about them...

THE MANNEQUIN

Rosie suggested that maybe instead of a face, a mannequin would relate better to a form without personality, and i believed too that it related more to a "blank" figure.

During the session i booked in the flash photography studio, i got a series of interesting photos

The lighting setup consisted of two lights from each side to create a silhouette, and one directly above the camera acting as a fill light.
After looking at the photos, i finally decided on using this one as my central photo:

Unknown

Some say he’s half man half fish, others say he’s more of a seventy/thirty split. Either way he’s a fishy bastard.
