Liquid fun (part II)

Our second underwater test shoot was a complete success! We tried it at night, using two redheads for light and the result was quite simply astounding! It makes such a difference from under the water, as the footage looks quite murky and there is a wider tonal range from the lighting. Parts of the scene are really dark and the side- lighting really brings the dress to life.
For our final shoot we'll be in a pool that has no lines so it should look even better from outside the water.
Here's the result:

Liquid fun

Yesterday we had an underwater test shoot for a music video we're in the process of planning.

 Leandi, Celeste, Karien and I had to be up bright and early to meet at the gym on our campus (6am)!

Karien was appointed to wear the dress while Celeste and Leandi tested out different shots and angles. I was lucky enough to not have to get wet that early in the morning and I snapped a couple of shots of our endeavours.

It turns out singing underwater is not the easiest thing in the world and things didn't quite work out as planned. Nevertheless, we've come up with more ideas and I think we're all just itching to get started with the shooting.

The dress we're using is Karien's mom's wedding dress from the 70's.She altered it with pieces of champagne coloured material to add extra depth to the white of the dress. The result was pretty awesome!
