Photographer, Jay P. Morgan, was recently commissioned to create a photograph from a drawn composition for the FMF (Federation of Mexican Futbol ((that’s soccer for Americans)) ).
In the video Morgan explains each step of the process, with the lighting process being the most intricate and interesting. It’s hard to believe that it took that many lights to create that one image but it wouldn’t be the same image without those lights being used the way they were.
This video was shot from a workshop called “Guts and Glory,” that was being held by Lookpw and Mark Behrens at Elk’s Tower in Sacramento. The entire video is the product of a single take steadicam involving 22 photographers and 20 models armed to the teeth. The only editing was what Blownapart calls “speed ramping” and that was to help hide some of the movements made by the individuals.
The neat part was that this entire video was unplanned.
A Belgium store is advertising an extremely rare, limited edition box set of the latest AF-S 35mm, 24mm and 85mm f/1.4 lenses. Only 100 of these sets were produced and are currently being sold for 4,899 euros on the Belgium site. Yesterday, according to Nikon Rumors a store in Sweden will begin selling some of those 100 box sets. No word on whether or not these limited edition box sets will be available in the States.
Winter can be one of the most photogenic seasons, but any photographer who has trudged out into the snow to photograph can tell you that having to remove your gloves to dial in settings is a pain. That’s why Freehands developed their special gloves that allow the index and thumb to fold back allowing camera access. Considering that Bowling Green is in the middle of a cornfield, and that campus was built to funnel wind into your face these gloves seem like a good investment.
