Construction Post 3: Week 3 Production

Our third and final week of production consisted of carrying out our promotional photo shoot. This was done in school with a white backdrop and lighting system set up

Our set up for the promo photo shoot

During this we had 4 photo shoot sessions, one practice shoot and three main ones.We planned these shoots in the practice by making a list of all the poses we definitely needed and also a range of potential costumes. In the end, Laith had 5 different costumes which meant we would have a range of different photos. Below are some of our photos.

 

I was responsible for directing Laith during the shoot as well as taking some of the photos. I also changed the lighting for different shots. I really enjoyed the photo shoot as I loved using all the new equipment, in particular the lighting kit.

Overall I really enjoyed our promo photo shoot as it was a new experience and really fun to do. I feel that we have a range of photos that can be used effectively on our website, social media pages and digipak album cover.
