The Wandering DP Podcast
Up this week on the podcast we take a look at a recent commercial campaign I DP’ed for Asics shoes. This was a bit of a different brief and we got to have some fun with the photography. I chose to shoot on the RED Dragon paired with a beautiful set of Arri Zeiss Standard Speeds.

The Location
Camera Assistant extraordinaire loving life on the ole’ dolly.
The location was a fairly small white cyc studio space. There was no over head grid so we were going to have to BYO our soft overhead look.

The Overhead Lighting Set Up
For the lighting we went with the follow:

Set of floppies to keep the actual light from spreading directly on to the set.
2x Image 80 Kino Flos
1x DF50 Hazer

BTS Images
I would love to see a video tutorial on how you are working on the offset if you have the time. It’s information most people would pay for, having a better understanding of processing their image for the best look.
