| Experimenting with Light Painting Photography Devices on the Streets of Paris Posted: 20 Jun 2013 01:46 PM PDT Photographer Benjamin Von Wong has broken out his trademark pyrotechnics once again, but this time he’s combined flame and electric energy for some pretty hot results (literally!). Creating a visual story featuring three Victorian-era gentlemen (who were actually professional pyrotechnicians), Von Wong experimented with some innovative special effects using fire, sparks, and electricity while in the historic city of Paris (for those of you reading this by email, the video can be seen here): Limited to a scaled-down travel kit, only Nikon speedlights and some Elinchrom Ranger Quadras were used to light the foreground, requiring Von Wong to play around with different exposures to get the effect just right.
On their second day in Paris, the team added electricity into the mix with a homemade Tesla coil for a quite possibly never-before-seen photographic effect combining the warm glow of firelight with the white-hot crackle of lightning.
You can seem some of Von Wong’s other work involving pyrotechnics here, here, and here. Go to full article: Experimenting with Light Painting Photography Devices on the Streets of Paris |
| How to Photograph Boxers and Prize Fighters Posted: 20 Jun 2013 10:44 AM PDT It’s often hard to tell how much work goes into creating a single image, especially in portraiture. A photographer may tell you what equipment was involved and maybe even give you a few details on the basic setup, but to see all the actual work that goes into creating one image is to really get a sense of what it takes. In this video, you’ll see a how photographer Tim Mantoani and his assistants change their setup from shot to shot as he photographs kick boxer Christopher Chatman (for those of you reading this by email, the video can be seen here): As any photographer knows, shooting is only half the work. The rest of the work takes place at the computer. Some may consider this cheating, but it’s really just another tool for manipulating the light in an image just like we do with flashes, light domes, flags, etc. This video shows a bit of Mantoani’s post-processing workflow. He’s no Photoshop wizard, but he knows how to get his images to pop and create a more dramatic look. If you want to see his work on the kick boxer image, skip to about 11:32. It really is incredible how much different an image can look after a few hours in post-processing.  Bounce light is used to light the subject while a sunswatter is used to block the harsh overhead sunlight. Go to full article: How to Photograph Boxers and Prize Fighters |
