Photo of The Week – Advertising Composite by Rick Schiller!
Hopefully everyone is enjoying the sunshine in Vancouver today!
Wayne Hoecherl recently taught a new weekend workshop entitled ‘The Assignment Workshop’ at VPW.
The idea behind this workshop was for the participants to work on specific assignments that mimic actual commercial jobs or ‘assignments’ professional photographers would get from their clients.
Participants were split into groups to work on various assignments, all while Wayne helped set the lighting, gave feedback on the creative process, and critiqued the final images.
The image(s) below were shot by Rick Schiller. It is a composite of 2 separate exposures merged into the final image. Finally, the advertising text was added in Adobe Photoshop.
The model for these images is actually a photographer herself as well. Check out her website here!
The first image was a ‘product shot’ of the wine bottle, with lighting specifically optimized for the bottle. The second shot was of the model holding the bottle, and again the lighting was optimized for the model.
Rick has 2 more images posted on his blog that also have been created in Wayne’s workshop.
Here they are:
