‘Shots’ Shot of the Week – Andrew Code
Congratulations this week to Andrew Code for taking out the “Shots @ The Arthouse” Shot of the Week, selected from the Shots Flickr Group. I asked Andrew to pen a few words about his inspiration along with some of the technical aspects of it’s creation.
‘The shot was inspired by one of my favourite TV shows Supernatural. The purpose was to focus on creating a simple but effective composition using a couple of lights to light the model. It was taken in my warehouse, hanging from a window on the second floor looking into it.
The lighting was a couple of cheap flood lights from Bunnings behind a diffuser. The wings were added post (after experimenting with drawing it on the floor). Taking the photo from above using the floor as a back drop really created the different look i was after. It would have been much easier to take it standing against a wall – but the result would not have been as effective.’ – Andrew Code
