Hey guys, here's a Mary Kay/Project Runway spot. Shot on an Epic MX and 2 Scarlet MX's with Contax 28-85, 80-200, and some Canon FD 35-105 (it's first "try out"). Most of the closeups are the fab 80-200, at the long end!
We used Glimmerglass 1 diffussion on all cameras (looking back, would probably have gone Classic Soft; the "mist" in Glimmerglass didn't add as much "glow" and "sheen" to model's skins as we're used to).
Actually, this spot always made me wonder what would happen if you COMBINED Glimmerglass + Classic Soft! It could sort of be a variant of "Hollywood Black Magic"...aka "Hollywood Glimmer Magic!". Gotta try that sometime...
This spot is just one of numerous pieces of content we covered that day - in both English and Spanish
30's and :90's). But this spot I think came out the best.
The shoot was quite a challenge. The "makeup room" on set of Project Runway this season is actually quite small (10 x 10 maybe), w/ mixed lighting. Luckily, Jake's grade helped smooth it all out!
I don't think this spot is perfect by any means. But considering how much we had to cover, and how "simple" this spot could have been, I think we survived the day!
This was also the spot where I RE-FELL in love with the Contax 80-200, and decided to seriously consider buying a SECOND! We could have used another easily (instead of the FD 35-105, which just couldn't get in close enough at times - otherwise it's quite a nice and useful lens).
