Underground Cosmetics: Red Test
Day 213 of 365
"Underground Cosmetics: Red Test"
My friend and his business partner have created some brilliant hair color products and makeup adhesives. I got to visit their shop recently (complete with props from "Raging Bull" and "Star Trek" series). We are discussing having me shoot their line, and here is my first attempt with their red hair color. I ran over to Home Depot and purchased a large piece of silvery insulation. True story.....upon quickly realizing that the pieces would never fit into my car, I proceeded to break them into four pieces as several men in the parking lot looked on.....and snickered. I'm pretty confident they were snickering. As for the lighting, I used only two lights for this set-up. I employed a tilted strip bank at camera-left to light our tub of color. The color of the product reads because you are seeing the direct reflection of the white diffusion of the light. Secondly and lastly, there is my old friend, the snooted speedlight. It is positioned at camera-right, and is hitting the silvery insulation panel in the background. I hope the look is a little Hollywood-esque with a hint of edginess to it. Thanks for reflecting!!
