Karl Taylor Photography – Still Life Pasta: Food Art

In this still life photography class, Karl shows you how to create a striking piece of art using very simple ingredients.  After spending some time perfecting his composition, Karl moves on to lighting. To simulate sunlight and achieve a graphical, hard-light effect, he uses a very particular modifier: the Flooter Fresnel attachment.  The Fresnel results are excellent. But Karl also demonstrates how to achieve a very similar effect with a much simpler and more affordable bare-bulb studio light combined with a standard reflector.  You’ll also discover how to use flags to reduce exposure in specific areas, and learn about the properties of collimated light.
