Woven Shadows 4 and Izzy Video 28 - Special Combination Episode

izzyvideo28wovenshadows04

With this episode, we tried to do something different.

Because so many of the principles are identical in both still photography as well as videography, we decided to try a combination episode of Izzy Video and Woven Shadows.

In this combination episode, we cover some more details with three point lighting. We briefly discuss how to get a nice contrast on the subject’s face between the light side and the shadow side. And finally we review some gear, in this case, a fresnel light. We show the Lowel Fren-L.

You can download the combination episode here.

  1. Great crossover show. I like the format. I definitely would like to see more of these shows if the topic allows.

    I would also like to see shows regarding the difference features offered on cameras and how they affect the picture.

  2. I enjoyed the episode, and the topics are probably close enough for this sort of thing. However, from someone who watches and subscribes to both shows, it looked more like a highjacked Woven shadows than a collaberation of both shows. You probably could have left the voice over out, and it still would have been a great show. (sorry Izzy!)

  6. This video is very helpful to me. I am relatively new to photography and my college age son is a digital media major interested in video. Together we are involved in various projects documenting local historic buildings before they are lost. This series is teaching me alot and I encourage you to continue, and thank you for your efforts.

    ps I am also making a contribution to your efforts!

  7. I really appreciate making photographic lighting accessible to non-professionals.

    I’m glad you mentioned Hurrell because he’s one of my favorite photographers. How about an episode on shooting a “Hurrell”-type portrait using your $100 lighting setup.

    Looking forward to more great ‘casts. Thanks.
