@pshiftguitarist
I didn’t know if he knew that, cos if he did, he substantially competence have taken competent measures. we usually forked out where he indispensable to excellent balance his technique:
1) Avoidance of the onboard peep (or peep of any sort) – 6500K Daylight lamps have been good, light brick in object is pristine MAGIC.
2) Nothing, zero equals cleaning the product meticulously as against to regulating photoshop, photoshop is similar to the medicine, PREVENTION is better.
Still wish to see my pledge product pics ?
@prodigytechus
dontchu u consider he already knows this……
he says which he saw the cold ad of Rolex as well as longed for to embrace it…
His last product was not Bad essentially undiluted on top of the item in the shadows..
He does overdo it again since he pronounced which he wasnt the product photographer)
i would adore for u to post the video similar to this as well as uncover us..! (no spiteful im extraordinary anything which can improved me) though i determine i wouldve used the easier set up though give him props hes the tough worker
how do we equivocate removing ur own thoughtfulness in d watch
Can u greatfully discuss it that is a strain in a BG??
Forget photographing the watch, this video’s lighting is amazing. It looks great! You have been patently the perfectionist, which is ardent about photography & ligting. Don’t kick yourself up so much. we give we 110%
I am not the prof though small need some-more pursuit though still good work good finished i adore it.
I consider we could do improved with my $15 lighting cube, fondle nikon coolpix & a divert white acrylic tile.
The watch indispensable a great polish, with usually a soothing whilst string glove, regulating a peep would fall short a regard of a soothing light. Flash is meant usually as a final choice for me.
Am usually an amateur, though we feel which photography is 90% imagination/creativity & 10% hardware/software. Not a alternative approach around which camera manufacturers wish we to think.
@BigDogsFlicks Yeah .. i need to get a little more… we can’t own sufficient arri lights
Dude, I’m not a pro though we know sufficient to contend which we did approach to most for which watch. You could of only threw a watch in a product soothing box as well as shot it at a back of a solid white background. Try which as well as we gamble you’ll get a unequivocally great shot. Then take it to photoshop as well as work a magic.
@jonathankitchen we adore which arri 650. One of my the one preferred lights.
your lights were approach as well large for which product. You need arri 650 fresnel spots as well as diffusion. You additionally never got a highlights or shadows/ tonality upon a front bezel right as well as flipping a tag looks as well obvious. Basically we struggled. we admire your aplomb in display this video though. Thanks
You certain went by the lot of difficulty to fire the FAKE Rolex.
Otherwise illusory tutorial! What did we fire a video with btw? we pretence nikon bc we were articulate about a VR lens though that ones?
Dude I’m perplexing to watch this video though a song is irritating as shit.
awesome video!
Awesome video tutorial…btw what Video camera have been u using…?
great vid,
although i competence have discriminating the steel upon which watch the small some-more with the microfiber, it looks the small pale
Can we greatfully discuss it what camera was this video shot with? Great things anyway!!
Just a of oddity – since did we devise a fire from a commencement as dual apart ones? we was you do a little “watch photography” not long ago as well as attempted to get all seeking cold in a singular go only since of a problems/difficulties with convention a singular frames.
Best Regards
Peter
