This trapeze shoot with Rosella Elphinstone and Sarah Lake (see next blog post) of Dair Entertainment<\/a> took place at Dance Base. Their studio 3 allows one to rig silks, hoops or trapeze.<\/p>\n

I first wanted to hone my skills on the new lighting scheme I tried with Zoja Dravai in our chains<\/a> shoot. Practice makes perfect. Two speedlights at the back in the frame and one main light to camera left or right to light Rosella\u2019s face.<\/p>\n

\"Trapeze
The tricky part is filling the frame without cutting any hand, foot or light.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
I really like the effect of the back light on her hair.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
This is really painful.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
I had to frame, focus and shoot as quickly as possible.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
I really like this lighting scheme.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

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\u2019s pose.<\/p>\n

\"Trapeze
Elongated poses are more difficult to light.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
I had to pay attention not to cut a bit of the trapeze.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
In hindsight, I wish I had moved a tad to the left so you could see both her feet.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
I had done this pose with her friend Sarah and she wanted a similar picture.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
I asked Rosella to look in the direction of the light.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Trapeze
I really like this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
