  • Behind the scenes of a studio session using flash photography for fitness portraits with the Godox AD1200 Pro and AD600 Pro. I used a number of modifiers inluding strip boxes, rectangle softboxes, large and small octaboxes all on paper for a mix of catalog and test shooting fitness apparel.
    First look was a set of white Adidas athletic apparel. Second set was a black jacket. Third set was a black dress. 4th set was magenta fitness apparel. I hope this behind the scenes can help you with some lighting, background, and photography technique considerations.

    This is great. No long winded explanations about the history of modifiers. Just “this is what we did and why we did it”

      @@Cykob0b Heard! You’ve described exactly who I try to make my videos for. It’s tough, cause I understand someone new to flash is like “WTF IS 1.3 stops”. But I also don’t want to bore advanced flash users with those explanations in every video.

      @robhallphoto  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The maroon clothing would look nice for sure, but the shoes would have gotten lost a bit. Also I like to avoid showing the ground on white at all costs 😂.

    I saw the Godox H1200P just got released! You should definitely do a comparison between 2 AD600Pro vs AD1200Pro. I would think that it should allow for 1200Ws at 0.9s recycle

      As far as I know a dual head does not exist for the 600 Pro. Would be surprised if they developed one given the 1200 Pro existing now.

    I enjoy your videos and content so I say this respectfully, but I didnt really feel this one in terms of delivery. Sounded like a kid ready a book report in class quickly so he can go sit down again, and looked like it too :P . Love your content where it feels like you're talking to us. That said, love the photos, the insights and the challenges/problem solving in the new studio. This lady is a fantastic model, with a great frame for many different genres... except when she is selling drugs to children hahaha

    Do you prefer the Glow or Cheetah 20 inch deep para? The Cheetah has a pebble interior but only a single layer of diffusion.

    • @robhallphoto
      @robhallphoto  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Perks of Cheetah :
      Exterior material feels more durable
      Perks of Glow :
      Less expensive
      Regarding the interior diffusion: Ed at Cheetahstand said there was no purpose to interior diffusion as it did not have a big impact on light quality, I would agree.
      Regarding pebble silver, Ed said that choice was to even out the light pattern more - I don’t see a difference vs the polish silver of the glow and the polish silver has a tiny bit more light output when diffusion is off.

    I keep coming back to this video for I soo. Question for your action shots with the activeware. How did you stop the paper from slipping on the floor? I saw you taped it s little at the front but was that all? I assume the floors are concrete or very smooth (not like carpet)

    • @rickjbradbury
      @rickjbradbury 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Lucy,
      If you are unsure you can tape the sides as well.
      I run paper on top of a laminate floor and just tape the front/front corners with no issues. I have ot be more careful when using white faced hard board for a grounding reflection (white seamless set) as they will slide with being shingled over each other.

    Wonder if it’s toxic though. Some of models definitely don’t like the toxic smells.

      Yeah I’d probably 3D track on the D750 too but I wouldn’t aim for an eye in this scenario, there’s really no need as the entirety of the subject is in focus. In this moving scenario I just focused on the contrast of Emily’s top.
