Day 346 of 365

"Image 346"

 

Once again, I had no concept for today's shoot. Then, I noticed my daughter's clacking teeth which she insisted on buying at the Disneyland magic shop. Oh, they bring hours of fun to every person suffering from misophonia!! Anyway, as usual, I was not sure how to approach the shoot. While they are amusing on their own, I felt the need to do something a little different. I found a wire brush (maybe it is for the bbq grill?), and thought it would be hilarious if our subject had bloody gums!!! I'm sick...I know. But what to use for toothpaste and blood? I decided that shaving cream would make for a nice, fluffy toothpaste, and I drink a knock-off brand of a sports drink, so we had our blood as well. After styling the scene, I put a green gel on our snooted speedlight in the back (it is the complementary color to our gums), and a diffused beauty dish at camera-left. I used a piece of foamcore to bounce some light into the shadows on the camera-right side. I then took a photograph of our brush backlit, as I liked the highlight on top, and another image in which I lit just the drop of blood by itself. I really think that drip of blood is what sells the image. Please kids, don't forget to brush.....but not with a wire brush. Thanks for dripping by!!
