More work…

Hello everyone!

As I told you in my latest post we had to do a lot of product shots last week for many different and interesting companies.

Yesterday we took pictures of the amazing products from “House of Rokoko” (http://houseofrokoko.com/) again.

Some really cool boxes with football player on top, sweet baby clothing, accessories for men and women and really fresh greeting cards.

For the rest of the week there will be a big video shot in our studio and I am really excited to learn about how this kind of video production works and what kind of skills you need to manage all the people around it.

All the best,

Vanessa

Week full of product shots

Hello everyone!

The whole week was really amazing and instructive for me. I helped our photographer in the studio and we had a lot of work to do.

First there were about 50 buckles and belts we took great pictures off. They all looked unique on their own. Some had crystals, there were a lot of skulls and other really cool looking buckles.

Then on Tuesday we made product shots of timeless classical fabrics with a contemporary twist from “The Silk Gallery” (http://www.thesilkgallery.com/index.html).

After that my job was to steam the clothes of “Curate 8” (http://curate8.com/) and prepare them on the mannequins so our photographer could easily take pictures of the curated designs and some amazing vintage treasures.

On Wednesday we had a product shoot for “ISWAI”, an online fashion boutique (http://www.iswai.co.uk/).

The style of ISWAI is unique and refreshing and defenitly different from the high street mass! We took pictures of stylish clothing, beautiful jewelery and trendy bags.

But Wednesday wasn’t over yet! I think our photographer and me are a really good team and so there was enough time left for a test product shot with interior lighting.

Finally today there is a big product shot in our studio for “Lipsy” (http://www.lipsy.co.uk/). I am really excited because Lipsy is a young British fashion brand founded in the heart of London.

Tomorrow there is going to be another product shot for “House of Rokoko” (http://houseofrokoko.com/).

Check out the website because there are already product shots from us on it!

As you can see, the week is fully booked out for product shots ans I’m glad that I can learn as much as possible.

Have a nice week,

Vanessa

Hey, I am Vanessa

Hi everyone, my name is Vanessa and I am from Germany. I’m going to do my internship at The Light Studios until December this year. I hope to learn as much as possible in photography and video making.

This week we, the interns, shot our first fashion video. Mara plays a girl who isn’t able to find the perfect dress for their second anniversary.

Charlotte plays her best friend who tries to help her but fails.

I have the responsibility for the camera and the editing.

The shoot was during 2 days and we had a really good make-up artist, Shelly Feldman, a talented actor, Diego Barbosa, who played the boyfriend and Thamizh Thendral who played a Clown in our video.

The filming was trouble-free and incredible funny with all that people together.

We shot at Holland Park, Fulham Palace and Oxford Circus.

Here are some expressions:

This and next week I am going to edit the video and upload it as soon as possible.

All the best to you,

Vanessa

a nice weekend

After all the celebrations during the past week as well as the two working days, a weekend was much needed. And what could be a better way of spending spare time than shopping and relaxing? So my Saturday started with a shopping spree in the center of London. With all the sales after Christmas I should be able to get some good deals shouldn’t I? Well, no not really… Everything that was on sale was either not available in my size or still too expensive. On midday I got a text asking me if I could come to the studio as soon as possible in order to help with a shoot. So much for my shopping on Saturday but my purse was quite thankful I guess… When I finally arrived at the studio we started shooting some clothes for a client. The only problem was that these pieces of clothing were very difficult to shoot. Either they were partly invisible, not fitting perfectly or sparkling at the wrong sides… In the end we made it so that’s the main point. Afterwards I still had some time left for shopping so I went to buy that special beanie I’ve wanted to buy for ages. It wasn’t on sale but never mind.

Sunday was just for relaxing. Spending some time with friends, sitting in a cafe, skyping with friends at home and reading. I didn’t do anything special that day but it was nice to just relax for a change.

Now I’m ready for an exciting new week at the photo studio!
