Lenovo Mobile Phones

old-school photography, no post-prod

wanna-be fresnel lighting

a good surface adds that extra

my fave of the series

One of my favorites to work with, my good friend Patring recently produced the launch of Lenovo Mobile phones. They needed photos of the phones for the marketing collaterals and website (please visit http://www.lenovomobile.com.ph).

There were two requirements: 1) theatric on black background, and 2) straightforward standard on white.

As much as I can, I shoot the old-school way, no post-prod. I enjoy adjusting the lights to the specs I want before shooting.

For the first, I recreated the soft-edged beams of fresnel light by using:

 

straightforward catalog shot

strip boxes to create even lighting

Hensel Tria 2400 with 2 heads

Broncolor with 1 head

Snoot

Stripbox

Grid

For the second, I used 3 stripboxes to light details of the phones.
