„Virtual Prison” with @helipol . ——————————————————————— Well that’s the result of my last studio shooting. quite a new world to work on a composite project from the beginning to the end. I placed a 3 point lighting setup with 2 flashes (Godox AD600BM) and stripboxes with grids on the sides for the edges, and a third flash (Godox AD200) with a beauty dish on the top. There are actually 2 pairs of tights over each other to make the legs even longer than the wide angle does. The spikes were done out of paper and Ducttape. And this was shot with a canon 5D mark IV and a Canon EF 16-35mm at 16 mm F7.1, ISO 100, 1-160s. The background is a 3D model and all the shadows and reflections were done in photoshop. #canon5dmarkiv #canonef1635mm28lmarkii #godoxad200 #godoxad600bm #conceptualphotography #cgi #photoshop #mixedmedia #mixedmediaart #digitalart #fineartphotography #postprocessing #perspective #symmetry #blackandwhite #psychedelic #stripes #imattertojordan #artisticvigilantefind

Location
In a Studio in Berlin, the background is actually a 3D renderTime
Well it was in the morning but it doesn’t really matter for a studio shoot.Lighting
I used 3 strobes: 2 on the sides with strip boxes and grids, and a third one on the top front with a beauty dish and diffuser.Equipment
Canon 5D Mark IV, Canon EF 16-35mm f2.8 L II, 2x Godox AD600, 1 Godox AD200.Inspiration
I always search for things to build in order to play with perspectives and wide angle lens distortions. I was inspired by some minimalist black and white vector arts and I wanted to put a model in such a virtual space where all the outfit blends into the background.Editing
There is as well a lot of work before the shoot in order to build the costume as in post production. I built the finger spikes with paper and tape, bought several clothes which fit to the concept and modified some elements like the ties and gloves. The post processing was quite time consuming; first I have done the background in a 3D Software with the same camera angle as the original picture, and then I implemented it in photoshop. I used different pictures for the hands and some of the fingers. The shadows and reflections are done in post production as well.In my camera bag
Canon 5D Mark IV, Canon EF 16-35mm f2.8 L II, Canon EF 14mm f2.8 L II, Sigma Art 50mm, Godox AD600, AD200, Tripod from KF Concept and head from Sirui, remote control and IPad, and different diffusers and soft boxes. I always work with this “portable studio” everywhere also for shoots outside.Feedback
Well it’s a long process between developing the concept, building everything and the post processing. Good luck to those who would like to make something similar but I would be happy to see if someone tries it.
