broncolor 'How To': Shoot High End Headphones
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ธ.ค. 2019
- Urs Recher and Karl Taylor are back again to show you crucial tips and tricks that professional product photographers use daily. To photograph the headphones in this video, Urs and Karl used three broncolor Siros 800S.
Urs and Karl demonstrate how the halo lighting effect around the product brings out textures and helps to define edges of the headphones. In addition, they also walk through various simple lighting modifiers and shapers, such as a honeycomb grid, reflectors, and a small softbox, that can achieve a high-end result. The slightest changes and movements of your studio lights can impact your final images immensely. In many cases, you can create stunning outcomes by incorporating simple tools to your setups such as flags, mirrors, and basic light shapers.

I am glad these courses are available. Many thanks to Urus and Karl for the courses for hobbyist or small business.
Glad you like them!
Urs is a master. That man is unbelievably clever. Thanks for putting these together for us
Antonio de l'Enclos I can live with these words 😊 - thanks so much!, Antonio.
@@ursrecher3812 since this has been drug back up thanks to scammers trying to social engineer TH-cam, I wondered why you aren't making TH-cam tutorials or teaching concepts like this here.
Love the relative simplicity achieving such a what would appear to be more complex lighting.
Stunning! Thank you Urs and Karl! You show us clearly to get amazing light quality with the use of mirrors, reflectors and more. The details of your work is inspiring!
What a great video. Thanks, guys. I always enjoy your stuff and I always learn something.
Great video. Love your guest's mastery of light.
Really is a simple yet powerful demonstration. Often the focus is on complexity to achieve these results, so interesting to see how ingenuity can get you the same thing.
Thank you for sharing some awesome knowledge.
Wonderful, image engineering - love it.
Fantastic how to- wow!
There a professionals, there are very good professionals, there are masters, masters better than masters and there is Karl Taylor above them all.
The video is so well done. Good questions, nice step by step tutorial, easy to follow and understand and you get to see how everything affects the result. It can‘t get better.
Thank you for your kind words James but I would like to make clear that this shot was from Urs who I also consider a lighting master! I did create a different type of headphone shot that included some very neat tricks, if you haven't seen it you can find it here: www.karltayloreducation.com/class/high-end-headphones-product-shoot/
Great tut Karl. The teaching skills are superb. Love it. Your fan from Pakistan.
Amazing what a mirror and flag can do to enhance a composition.
That black velvet is a great tip, thanks.

Thank you for helpful demo. Nice looking image.
Karl and Urs both are masterpiece in product photography. I get a lot of ideas about product photography and enjoy watching their videos.
Cool
As you pointed out before, it's not about the gear, it's about the "know-how".
Take note of f/32, that is some serious light power!
If you don't have 800J heads like these, just darken your studio and trigger your 400J heads twice during one exposure.
@@VisualEducationStudio Clever
Are you and Broncolor reviving the How-to series
Yes this is the third one we've released in this set.
What kind of clamps are those holding the translum paper?
You can get those clamps in the hardware stores... typically called 'A' Clamps. You can buy them in various sizes, and they are very inexpensive.
Didn't you upload this yesterday?
No, broncolor did on their channel.
Can you share the settings for each light?
I’m sure they normally do answer questions but a good start would be 2 to 1 or 4 to 1 from the exposure of your main light. For your shot with your equipment . But if you are desperate for numbers get a magnifying glass and read the numbers in the top left of the screen capture one Lightroom or bridge. Show you. Good luck copying and learning this style. You will get great satisfaction on your final images when you start selling your work. Or just your studio likes your high standard of work. I think Karl is a excellent teacher of high end studio photography. I wish this you tube had been available when I started in the 80s instead of now when I’m stuck in a bed so much and can only watch instead of working. Sorry for my frustration coming out. Good luck in your photography
Sure. I’m just a simple amateur asking simple questions at my level of understanding.
Can i attach a P70 to Siros 800S?
yes
For some strange reason, I want to go out and buy me some sony headphones now.....? ;0(
Dosh Doctor great headphones, Im sure you wont be disappointed with them. Love mine
This makes me want to photograph my limited-edition Audio-Technica headphones, which are cobalt blue and black in color. They should make a nice image. 💙
I used to own a pair of "professional" Sony headphones, which looked rugged at first glance, but they literally fell apart after very little use, one ear cup snapping off where it was hinged. After that, I'll never buy Sony headphones again.
If continuous lighting is being used, what is the flash in the room? Can someone please explain that to me. Thank you. :)
It's not continuous lighting, those are the modelling lights that you can see on, all studio flashes have them so you can see what you are doing and what the light will look like, the flash tube surrounds the modelling light and fires when you press the shutter.
@@VisualEducationStudio that's very insightful, thank you for your response!
That's a shame that they don't know how to use a C-stand properly...😅
The back light can easily fall like this, it's better to use a spigot and the extended arm the other way around!
Hi Clement, in over 25 years of studio product photography - karltaylor.com/objects - I know the most important thing with a C-stand is that what is on it doesn't fall over, that's all that matters.
@@VisualEducationStudio I’ve seen many new photographers and assistants who doesn’t know how to properly use a C-Stand simply because nobody taught them. I don’t have as many experience as you but I’ve seen many broken flash lights due to C-Stand ignorance. Now, every assistants I train for my studio need to understand the basic C-stand rules for safety, and because I care about my Broncolor expensive equipment. I’m pretty sure you’ll agree with me and I know for sure that you know perfectly how to use a C-Stand. My comment was pure provocation 😉
Here is a video that inspired my way to teach safety protocols:
