Studio Techniques - The Echo Workshop 2
For this project our brief is to produce images that reinterpret known, important photographic images. To do this we will demonstrate the use of studio techniques, through portraiture with the use of a camera format of our choice (analogue or digital).
With the above image we chose to recreate a portrait shot of Michael Caine by the renowned studio photographer, David Bailey. To do this we first had to identify the type of lighting used and the directionality of the light (3x lights lighting subject from the left and background). We then had to work to try and recreate the exact pose and position of Michael Caine in the David Bailey photograph, so that we could produce the exact echo of the image. Above is the worksheet detailing the steps we went through to recreate the image.
