[berlijnsemuur]

Nigel's more of an outdoor photographer. The only shots I liked from him on ANTM are the matador ones. The studio shots he did there were very lackluster.

There’s quite a lot of ambient light, with those huge windows, without it, I feel her legs would probably be underexposed…
(Mostly talking about the overhead light shot)

EXCELLENT video. I've seen a few "one light" tutorials, but this was the best so far. Well demonstrated, well drawn, well summarized. And well timed! Just the right length, IMO. I cant imagine how it could be done better.

What are those v - flats? Fomebords? 😯

[meroslave]

ops, again in CreativeLive, the video at all is not pro enough to give a new information about lighting and photography
the results are very humble :(

[riffraff]

The lighting is as poor as the model direction. Even the V-flats look bored.

[deepdesire]

is he so lazy not to pick v flat on his own?

[kwesijohnson]

For the people that has negative things to say. Make your own damn video since you know it all.

[garyofnyc]

"Speculative light". Sigh...

[deepdesire]
