Disorientation - Behind The Scenes,

As usual, posting something about the making of last week's shot.
At the top and bottom, you see two initial trials of the setting (but there were MANY of those done on various days). It was a trial and error thing to see how would it look. If you recall from last week's post, the figure was floating in the air above the match. In the initial stages I was thinking of placing the match at the center of the figure as seen here. You might also notice the colors of the figure are different than the image posted last week, and of course, that was done in the post-processing phase.
So in the center, this is the final setting. Maybe it's not clear here, but there is an acrylic sheet that the figure was placed upon. You can probably see the little canisters, those were the "legs" to keep the sheet up. I have to say though, the hardest part of this shot is the figure, which I wouldn't be exaggerating if I say that I've spent months trying to put together. In the beginning I was thinking of gluing matchsticks together, and I failed. Then I thought of using larger sticks (~20cm long) and failed again. Then I thought about magnets! Then… I failed. It wasn't till the discovery of tiny magnets (remnants from my brother's set) when I was finally able to make this figure despite the skew because of the lengths.
You might as well notice how the speedlite here is covered with some tape. This was to focus the light (like a barn door modifier). Even though I do have a snoot and a honeycomb modifiers for this job, but this was the quick solution. With a snoot, the balance between the distance of the speedlite from the set and the power of the speedlite (and the spread of the light) didn't quite work well, so blocking the light by tape made it easier for me to control the power and the spread of light altogether, on low power.
