Lead: In advertising photography, lighting is a creative work, which not only reflects the photographer's personality and style, but also relates to the success or failure of a work. The following three examples may inspire you.

Examples of commercial photography lighting technology for still life shooting: a work;

Illustration of light distribution diagram of example 1:

The bottom height of 1 and 1 to 3 flexible boxes is close to the horizontal height of the desktop.

2. In order to obtain uniform illumination on the countertop background, it is necessary to adjust the pitch and rotation angles of 1 and No.2 flexible boxes, and place a black card on the product side of 1 flexible box No.2 to block the direct illumination of the flexible box lamp on the product.

3. It is necessary to adjust the distance and angle of the tracing paper, the No.3 soft box and the left reflector, so as to obtain a changing light spot on the mirror surface of the product.

4. Later, the background color was adjusted to hide the back end of the reflection.

Example 2 Works:

Illustration of light distribution diagram of Example 2:

Add a blue filter to the lights 1 and 1, determine the aperture of the picture, adjust the light index, and then turn off the modeling lights.

2. When drawing with a cold flashlight, be careful not to let the flashlight head enter the picture. If the light is too scattered, wrap the flashlight head with a black cardboard tube, adjust the gathering and scattering of light, and then measure the conversion time with an exposure meter at the position of the hair dryer. The actual exposure time will be extended at this value.

3. During the exposure time, the more times the flashlight walks back and forth on the light drawing line, the easier the light and dark shape and transition of the picture are.

4. Try to adjust and replace the flashlight back and forth, shoot more and choose the one that is satisfactory.

5. Later, adjust the contrast and color of the hair dryer and the background. The background of this picture is the result of a large fault pulled out by the color scale.

Example 3 Works:

The indicators of lights 1 and 1 are stronger than those of lights 2.

2. The lamp bitmap only describes the relative positions of light sources and accessories, but the modeling effect of each light source is closely related to the distance between the lamp holder, tracing paper, the object to be photographed and the size of the lamp holder, which needs to be carefully adjusted.

3. Later, the background color and local light and shade were adjusted.
