Back to EpisodesCapturing Light – Episode 7 with Eli Bam’s
Description
In this episode, I talk about:
- What’s your favorite focal length?
- Do you use storyboards or shot list?
- How do you cover a scene?
The Featured Cinematographer: Eli Bam’s
Let’s set the scene:
Ely Bam’s goes into how he lights food and beverages. He not only goes over lighting, but talks about his camera choices and lens choices as well. Since lighting differs from shot to shot, he gives general information that can help you on your future product photography.
Ely Bam’s Recommendations:
“You don’t want shadows on the food. Shadows don’t make the food look good.”
“I recommend at least 2k lights.”
“Use soft lighting.”
“Shot at higher frame rates with macro lenses.”
“My camera of choice in the Phantom Flex camera for product photography”
