Test shoot using my newly acquired Light Blaster (light-blaster.com) which allows you to project your own backdrop images. Since I also have a big photoshoot coming up for a local hair salon I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone and get some salon test shots as well.
The Light Blaster performed well overall but it definitely has strengths and weaknesses. I just used an old 18-55mm Canon kit lens, I found I needed to use a lot of power. If I used a faster lens (ie wider aperture) it should require a bit less light. A big issue is that you really need to limit spill from your key light or else it will completely wash out the projected background. I was shooting in a small space so this didn't help that fact, if I had more room the key light would have fallen off quicker too.

Day 228 of 365
My niece brought a set of these tiny magnetic balls with her on her travels, and graciously arranged them into a cube for me. After shooting a wide image of the entire cube, I realized it was not that interesting. Upon zooming in to check for focus, I decided that the depth of field was more intriguing than the cube as a whole. In the end, I used about one-sixteenth of the image here. As for the lighting, there is a strip bank, almost above, but slightly to camera-right. I then placed a beauty dish directly above, and it delivers most of the nice white rim on top. There is a bounce board at camera-left, reflecting the light from the strip bank. Next, there is a ring flash on the camera, providing the tiny dot in the middle of the spheres. Lastly, my Light Blaster is projecting a swirly image of something on the background, and I added a CTB to make for a more interesting color contrast. Once again, I went in with one concept, and walked away with another. That's life! Thanks for rolling by!!

Day 262 of 365
"White Crane Spreads Its Wings"
Yes, I stol.......borrowed this "Avatar" toy from my kid's school today. I actually asked her teacher, and she did not want to know why I wanted to borrow it. Once I saw the figure's stance, I immediately reflected back to my tàijíquán days. I practiced Yang style for about 16 years. Now that I have two small children, I believe I need it more than ever. With that being said.......the lighting. I initially tried lighting our Na'vi friend with small lights, but quickly realized that because of his translucence, there were too many specular highlights. So, I moved in with a small softbox at camera-left. I am using just the back edge of the light so the light will "wrap" around our little friend. I used a large piece of foamcore at camera-right to bounce some of the light on to his left side. Lastly, I loaded a slide of the Earth and another of an orange swirly thing into my Light Blaster, and projected them on to the white background. I still don't understand how they lit these guys on another planet, but my friend, Mark, was the still photographer on the film. Check out Mark's work (markfellmanphotography.com), and his Instagram account. Thanks for stopping in!

Today a human wandered into the studio!! Thank you, Elana! I had a whole set-up arranged...and we basically did not use it for this image. I will go back and post one of the originally planned images, but I liked this one. You are looking at my Light Blaster projecting a grid on lovely Elana. The Blaster is attached to a speedlight, and is just out of frame at camera-right. There is a gridded beauty dish casting a touch of light on my canvas background (just for some separation), and a strip bank at camera-left, just puffing a little light on her shoulder and hair. Just a puff. While I would not use this as a formal portrait, it hopefully makes the viewer take a second look. Thanks for stopping by!! #grid #lightblaster #portrait #woman #studioportrait #eyes #canon580exII #canon5dmarkIII #canon24105 #pearls #canvasbackground #paulcbuffeinstein #paulcbuffinc #pocketwizard

Test shoot using my newly acquired Light Blaster (light-blaster.com) which allows you to project your own backdrop images. Since I also have a big photoshoot coming up for a local hair salon I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone and get some salon test shots as well.
The Light Blaster performed well overall but it definitely has strengths and weaknesses. I just used an old 18-55mm Canon kit lens, I found I needed to use a lot of power. If I used a faster lens (ie wider aperture) it should require a bit less light. A big issue is that you really need to limit spill from your key light or else it will completely wash out the projected background. I was shooting in a small space so this didn't help that fact, if I had more room the key light would have fallen off quicker too.
