As an exercise for my exploration of Documentary creation, I have have tested five different interview setups. I have tested with lighting and camera positions to evoke different emotions.
The following images from those setups:
Setup 1: Natural light in the shade with architecture in the background.
Setup 2: Broad Daylight in upper body only
Setup 3: Dramatic closeup with one light
Setup 4: Midshot with Key light and Hair light.
Setup 5: Typical Desk interview with subtle key and fill light.
Overall, I enjoyed doing this exercise. I feel like I have a better grasp on setting up interviews.
That's a great set of pictures right there. Good job.
