I want to ask some questions about photography and studio.

one by one

1. In this case, we can first consider using seamless paper as the background, so naturally we don't have to consider the background cloth.

If we want to consider the lighting problem, the model should be at least 0.5M away from the background cloth, then a 300CM*200CM background cloth is enough.

The size of the studio depends on the focal length of your camera and lens. It is generally estimated that a high-resolution fixed-focus lens is needed to show dolls, so the standard portrait head 85 1.8 (after focal length conversion) can be considered. Considering the proportion of dolls, you need a small studio more than 60CM (in fact, I suggest that you don't buy ready-made ones on Taobao, you should refer to its lighting method, and it is king to use brand-name lights to illuminate yourself).

3. Soft box is a must. No soft light, nothing. In order to show your face makeup, you need a direct light (commonly called a beam tube) to show your face. In addition, you need another beam tube to provide light, two soft boxes, a main light and an auxiliary light to show the doll, and a background light to illuminate the background cloth (if seamless paper is used, a background light is also needed).

4, wattage is not important, because it is a photographic doll, and the light is inverse square law. If the light is weak, you will be close, and if you are strong, you will be OK! What matters is the quality and color temperature of the bulb, which is very important! If the color temperature is not accurate, everything is blind.

Summary:

What do you need:

A, two soft boxes, one for the main light and the other for the doll (the auxiliary light can also be supplemented by a reflector).

B, two beam tubes, one for showing face and the other for providing light.

C, a background light source for illuminating the background.

As above, I hope it can help.
