Artists

This is an artist know as SWEELDAAG, this picture was taken at the "If we meet again Video shoot"


There are many reason why i chose this picture , the contrast was one of the reason why i chose this photo,  i personally love the dark background against the brightly coloured clothing of SWEELDAAG really makes him stand out. The UVA bouncing of his whites really adds to the photo contrast. This photo has depth-of-filed is up to its eye balls, the Artist believe it or not is standing in the middle of the dance floor (if you look closely  at this  picture you will be able to see what im saying). the reason i chose to take this shot from this angle was simple  it reflected the lighting  better  and also to stop my shadow form being in the frame.  The exposure as you can see it low and not at all very revelling but that was the intention of  the music video its bassed in a night club, so we had a problem how do you show its a typical night club without bombarding it with lights  destroying the natural look of the night club and still have enough light to capture the face dance, singers etc. i originally thought lighting a night club will be a piece of cake... oh very wrong i was, the time spent angling and moving the light was frustrating hour of the general set up, but would not change it for the world as it showed me a lot of different ways i can work with angles .
