Get It Off! Shootshop Recap



After last month's Get It Off! workshop with James (and due to popular demand, hey, you gotta give the people what they want), we decided that we needed an immediate follow up Shootshop.

With special thanks to Lara for totally hooking us up with some sweet space, we invaded Studio G at BU's Center for Digital Imaging Arts in Waltham with 10 students, 3 fantastic models, and enough flashes to stun a small (large?) animal.

We kicked off the shoot with a little reverse engineering exercise (that's Stephanie, above, channeling Epinero), and from there jumped right into a foreground/background lighting exercise before wrapping up with an exercise in capturing movement.

Here's a quick behind the scenes look from the day:

Kickin' models Jessica and Hoai ("Why") danced for us.








I have no idea where the fan came from, but it just appeared, and Elena rocked some photos.




Stephanie brought an evening gown with wings (I'm sure there's some girl word for those things that go on dresses, but she looked angelic, so I'm calling them wings).



A little reverse engineering action (you can see the print of Epinero on the floor below Jessica).





James not only teaches, but he assists too!




Thank you everyone for a great workshop - James and I had a blast. I'm heading to Florida here in a few weeks for spring training, but we'll definitely be planning some Get It Off! mayhem in the fall. In the meantime, check out our Flickr group.
