OK everyone,
(firstly I hope this is the right section...)
in a few weeks I'll be doing my very first paid photo shoot!
I'm going to be shooting the cast of a college opera production.
(as a side note, I have 2 lenses: 50mm 1.8 II and a 28-135mm USM)
I have 3 photographic duties:
1. portraits of the entire cast inside in a studio set up. (use nifty right?)
- I have access to a beginner set of three hot lights
(2 umbrella TOTAs and a halogen spotlight with gels)
- how many lights should I use and what are time tested lighting s
setups?
2. shots of the dress rehersal (use both lenses?)
- will be inside
- I have access to a 430EX
- ceiling tall, bounce flash? or use softbox? (DIY of course... =D)
3. posed publicity shots and posters (use nifty again?)
- will be outside
- use 430 as fill flash?
sorry if this is all very boring, I'm just writing my thoughts so you guys can shoot them to pieces...
anyway, I just thought I would stop trying to learn by osmosis and ask questions of the awesomeness that is POTN!!
alright, thank all!
