sketches...

So, what I want to shoot will be a bunch of scenes that come together to form a narrative.

These sketches include some lighting to see how I can stage some more dramatic things....

In this one, I'm trying to make it so bright behind the closet door that it looks practically like something is going off inside it.

The top photo is doctored, the bottom one isn't.... you can kind-of get a sense of what I'm going for.... I'll definitely need to use a tripod, and have more lights.... this was done with a long exposure and a single strobe (someone was inside the closet using the strobe around the door frame).

I'm also hoping to shoot someone inside their room/ studying somewhere..... I'd like it to have a pretty staged feel, and would also like for the light to be warmer....
that's why the light behind her is tungsten


I'm also hoping to do some outdoor shooting (but was inhibited by the rain/unable to get equipment).

 I intend to use a digital camera when shooting with lighting so that I can check everything.....
