If Only She Would Talk

Day 259 of 365

"If Only She Would Talk"

 

What do you do when a friend/neighbor brings over a long-forgotten doll from yesteryear? Needless to say......it goes without saying. I figured I had to light her with a classic "monster lighting" setup, so I snooted a speedlight, and positioned it beneath her at camera-left. This uplighting was the classic Hollywood approach to lighting all of our favorite movie monsters back in the day. I knew I was going to use my Light Blaster, and went with a creepy house as our background. Lastly, I used a strip bank to provide the hair light. It is a three-foot strip, and is positioned above and behind our lovely model. I photographed her in an additional scenario, and will post it in the future. By the battery compartment in her back and the speaker in her stomach, it is evident that she spoke a long time ago. What did she say? I don't know....but I'll put in some fresh batteries and find out......if she she still has a voice. If she calls me by my name....I'm going to have to ask her to leave. That is, after putting on some trousers. Thanks for drifting by!
