John this was incredibly helpful, ty! Quick question; in the shot of tyler with the gels; how did you keep his entire body from being coloured whilst only have the colour on the background shadow? Sorry if thats a stupid question! Is it best to use a gray or white background for images like that? Thanks again for the inspo!
That’s great to hear! When red, green, and blue light are combined, they create white light. This occurs due to the additive color model, which is used in devices like computer screens and digital displays. In this model, red, green, and blue are the primary colors of light. When mixed together in equal intensities, they produce white light because the combination stimulates our eyes' cone cells, resulting in the perception of white. This is fundamentally different from mixing colors in paint, where the subtractive color model is used. In the additive model, combining different wavelengths of light adds to the overall intensity and creates new colors
I've always wondered how you gel a softbox!!! But don't you run the risk of melting the gel by taping it so close to the bulb? ...especially if you are using the modeling lamp?
Great point. If your flash tube lacks a protective dome, it can get so hot that it will actually melt the gel. A halogen modeling lamp can also warp the gel, but it typically won't cause as much damage. However, with an exposed flash tube, the gel can literally fuse to it due to the intense heat. With LED modeling lamps and a protective glass cover, as you see in the video, taping a gel in this manner is perfectly safe.
you present Evoto trial version with watermark ? is this so bad, you don't actually own legal working copy to present outcome without watermark ? wtf???
The images in the program have the watermark until you export them. Once you do so, you are charged one credit. The exported versions are sharper than the previews too.
