First time trying lighting a shot, any advice?
My first time setting up a shot and controlling lighting and not shooting natural light. It was a godox flash in a softbox as main light, a reflector (which wasn't positioned very well) to try and get some light on the other side, and a desk lamp behind him to try and get so backlighting. I also opened the blinds behind me to get some light in his eyes.
Had to take what I could get in terms of how he was positioned. Will be practicing with some human subjects as well so I can be a bit more accurate with light positioning.
I feel maybe it looks a bit over flashed. And I could have used a a smaller aperature to get a bit more of his nose etc I focus, as I used 2.8 and focused on his eye.
But yeah any pointers based off this would be sweet. Looking forward to doing some more and practicing!
Thanks in advance for any advice, there's alot to improve on!
