Andrea Belluso is an experienced photographer with more than three decades in the business. He has shot everything and everyone from supermodels and celebrities to fashion, beauty and stock photography. Once a month, Andrea takes us behind the scenes of one of his most recent shoot. This time he shows us how to create colored shadows on a background.
To achieve this effect, Andrea used the versatile Profoto D1 Studio Kit 3 Heads. The kit contains 3 x D1 monolights, 1 x Softbox RFi 1.3x2', 1 x Softbox RFi 2x3', 2 x speedring adaptors, 1 x D1 Grid 10° and 3 x stands. The only thing Andrea had to add was a Zoom Reflector.

Great videos. One thing missing though is how to measure the lights with the meter. It is great to see that you use a light meter as now they are a rare thing to see. Maybe you could even give more detail and show how you measured the different lights and the readings you got, thus the aperture you used. Thanks.

Only explaining three lights and have two fill one behind and a side huge octa. You guys can get the same look with one beauty dish like 8 feet from the model and one light on the background w a 7" reflector and gel.

Dude be happy with free great stuff. There might be million ways to do something but it is very rare to see great videos The way he works is total perfectionist way and he loves to get it right in camera .. Just attend his light shaping seminar and you will know what I mean..

A diagram would've been nice to explain the effect. Also, he said that he removed both diffusers from the soft box, but then you can see the assistant placing the colored gels on the outer diffuser and then covered with a grid. If you're going to explain the technique Profoto, then show it clearly!

The key-light (the one lighting the model) had the diffusers removed (to get the hard shadow). The light which colored the shadow had the grid on it.

there are 2 diffusers in the soft box. the inner and outer layer. so he was referring to removing the 2 layers of the diffusers on the softbox which was facing the model to get the harsh light which will cause the shadow on the background. The other softbox was used to cast the colored light on the background essentially 'coloring' the shadow.

the photos are lovely but i feel like the editing was a bit boring? His skin looked quite dull and boring

Fashion photography is quite different from portrait photography. The emphasis is always on the garment/product and the style of the look of the image.
