Studio Model Shoot - for Newbies

[Astin]

Hi I received a few pms asking about studio model shoot FAQ. So I am going to organize studio model shoot specially for newbies. I will try to find some sifu(s) to come along and shoot together with the newbies participants. Note this is not a workshop, not a training, this is just a studio shoot session that a newbie will shoot together with a sifu. Along the way, hopefully the newbie can grasp some basics eg:
- basic communication skill between photog and model
- basic posing technique
- basic composition technique

We will hire a professional model from agency, use studio light for the first half, then use available light for the second half. The cost for newbie participant will be $60. The date will be either a Sat afternoon or a Sun morning.

Anyone interested?

You don't like C730 ah?

 

[Astin]

In fact if the digicam has a manual mode that allows you to set the aperture and shutter, then it should be ok.

It depends on your style. To have a easier start, I recommend a standard to mid tele focal length, in other words, 50mm-85mm range, either zoom or fixed focus are ok.

Gunjack, the cost is to cover the model fee and studio rental.
(We hire grade A model. )

Yes same time same place. You do your model shoot, after that let the newbies do the newbies shoot. Everybody will get their 2x10minutes.
Boss, ok or not?

NOooooooooooooooooooooo cannot. :devil:



But.. if you lend me ur D100 + 50mm f/1.4, I'll say yes :bsmilie:

Shouldn't be a prob, think also hard to fill up the rest of the slots. Can I be a 'sifu' to the newbies and then I can shoot 2 more times? :bsmilie:

Cheers.
