This trapeze shoot with Rosella Elphinstone and Sarah Lake (see next blog post) of Dair Entertainment took place at Dance Base. Their studio 3 allows one to rig silks, hoops or trapeze.
I first wanted to hone my skills on the new lighting scheme I tried with Zoja Dravai in our chains shoot. Practice makes perfect. Two speedlights at the back in the frame and one main light to camera left or right to light Rosella’s face.
The studio 3 at Dance Base also allows one to shoot against a light coloured background. For this set up I kept the two back lights but moved them out of the frame and the third light in front camera left or right depending on Rosella’s pose.
