Food photography special effect | ||
Every once in a while I get a project that is a little out of the ordinary, and this is one of them. Even though I am a food photographer, I consider this shot to be more in the realm of special effects than anything else. | Каждый раз я делаю проект, который несколько необычен, и это снова один из них. Даже если я фотограф еды, я вкладываю в этот снимок больше спецэффектов, чем куда-либо. | |
Photographic special effect | ||
My client comes to me with a layout, or rather other professional food photographer’s samples and say that thy want to do something like this. The product we are shooting for is flavored water, which is a private label grocery store brand. The photo we are to do is for the packaging of the product in both six and twelve pack cartons. We weren’t shooting just one flavor either, we would be photographing five different flavors. | Мой клиент приходит ко мне с макетом или даже с другими фотографиями профессионального фотографа и говорит, что он хочет сделать что-то подобное. Продукт, который мы снимаем, побрызган водой, одним из товаров продуктового магазина. Фото, которое мы хотим сделать, нужно для упаковки продукта и в 6, и в 12 коробок. Мы должны были сфотографировать не просто один товар, мы должны были сделать фотографии пяти различных товаров. | |
I’ve seen shots like this a hundred times in the trade publications and in various source books like the black book and the work book. These types of shots always interested me, but I never found the opportunity to do one myself. | ||
I figured that the two hardest things about the shot would be getting my strobe fast enough to stop the motion and timing the fruit fall. Years ago I remember a friend of mine having some kind of beam splitter that I thought I could borrow, so I thought had that covered. I own four different kind of Norman packs, so I thought between all of them, with a little testing, I could find one fast enough to stop the motion. After a phone call and a bunch of testing, I came up short on both counts. My buddy has since gotten rid of his splitter and all my Norman packs gave me slightly blurry motion in all my tests. | ||
Shot #1 - This was basically my first fruit drop. Notice how I don’t have the lighting figured out yet. At this point I’m mostly concerned with the fact that I can’t seem to stop the motion. The fruit is still blurry. I believe this attempt was with my Norman p2000 pack set at 400 watt-seconds. | ||
It just ain't sharp! | ||
Shot #2 – I try another pack to see how short the flash duration is and also tweak the light a little. This looks a little better, with the motion and the whiteness of the background. I know I’ll be shooting multiple fruits for some of the shots, so I want to see how the timing will work and if I’ll be able to time the splashes. |
