So I used to work as a photo assistant for a while, and spent most of my time in charge of lighting. I really appreciate your clear explanations and how you illustrate the effects of the different changes you're making. Most videos on lighting technique aren't anywhere as near as clear as this. Well done!

Thanks, Jay P., for demystifying one of the toughest kinds of photoshoots, food. Although they are simple in concept, they're ridiculously hard to get right.

My first product photography gig was 33 years ago - 15 queen size mattress & box springs sets using a 4X5 field camera. I was quite envious of the guys doing cereal boxes.

I think with the level of explanation and why you do this or that, what do look for, etc, definitely helped. so thank you ver much for this and definitely thank you both for your patience because this level of detail and creating the video is a lot of work too.

I’d saved 2 of your videos to my Faves playlist. I start watching this video and realized I wasn’t subscribed 🤷🏽. This video sealed the deal. I loved this practical demonstration of the nuance of light and just how amazing a simple but intentional set-up can be. 🙏🏼

JP, awesome video. I have some products to shoot and during some test runs, I used the foam board very differently lol. I'm going to try your V-flat method. What kind of tape did you use to make them? PS: I felt really studious having studied angle of view and the light going off when you mentioned it LOL

@TheSlantedLens 2 жыл бұрын

We used black gaff tape to put them together.

The way I like to consider the light and shadows is to make sure the principle focus is more pronounced over the things that are just there to fill negative space. So for me I would want the sides of this shot to fall away into a bit of shadow because I want your eyes to be drawn to the bowl that we end the shot on. Maybe as we get closer the light slightly gets brighter on the bowl by a dimmer. Not enough to notice without intense examination of the scene.

@TheSlantedLens 2 жыл бұрын

That would be a nice effect to add!

Hey great video - I have been thinking about this approach since I saw it once on an assisting gig. What I want to know is how come you don't end up with the issue of 'double' shadows, as you have two lights? I am assuming that if you see a double shadow it can really make the image look messy.

@TheSlantedLens 11 ай бұрын

Are you looking at the still images or the video? The video footage has a video light up for filming purposes.
