Client: Dassi

Brief: advertising material, 5 shots, showing before and after scenario of dassi service.

5 shots over 1 full day @ house in Malvern.

Gear: Maymaiya RZ67 pro2 body, phase one back. Shooting teethered to latop capture one v4.

For all but one shot we used ARRI HMI lights (HMI Fresnels). These lights do not flash, rather give a constant light source.

Ari light features:

• They can be focused by a Large switch on the bottom.
• They usually have barn doors.
• Depending on side they can fit onto a normal average size stand (Manfrotto 004’s).
• An example: Arri d5 hmi 575w
• Good for outdoor and indoor lights.
• Can be easily covered with warming & cool gels (coloured film) to vary the temperature of the light.

1st shot: kitchen floor. Showing clean vs dirty.

Camera and Tripod

This is a large standard tripod from Manfrotto with a FOBA tripod head attached onto the leg to get down lower to the ground. See pic below:

foba mini superball tripod head.

Our main light was an Ari 2000 lamp. Bouncing off the ceiling from another room into the kitchen. These lights have a reasonably warm temperature (k). I covered it with an orange gel lowering the tempertaure of the lamp to match the ambient light already in the ktichen (kitchen light was shinning in from a window).

Arri HMI 2000 w - with orange gel to cool temperature down.

Look out for the final art work to be posted here when it is made public.
