Premium Member Michael Smithers Posted January 23, 2013 Premium Member Share Posted January 23, 2013 Hello all, I am looking for feedback as to ways in which I can improve these test shots. This cut is obviously nowhere near what the final piece would be, but the look will remain relatively consistent throughout the piece. For improvements, I am thinking I should brighten the highlight on the bottle in the second shot and throw a softbox above the hand for a proper exposure. Also, the color and detail in the wine glass gets lost as more wine is poured so I'm thinking of dimming up on a hotter head to fix that issue. What are your thoughts and comments? What is working for you and what isn't? Am I thinking along the right path for improvements? Thanks, Michael https://vimeo.com/58032722 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Michael Smithers Posted January 28, 2013 Author Premium Member Share Posted January 28, 2013 Any suggestions? The product shot at the end is very desaturated and has very little contrast. I'm wondering if there are any menu/picture profile settings or tools (such as filters) that you would recommend to help alleviate this problem (shot on sony fs100). During production I exposed for a f4 and overexposed the silk behind the table at f16. Should I have maintained this detail and brought it up in post? Any thoughts or comments? Cheers -Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
