Shooting the Publicity Photo for Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night

Nikon D5, Nikon 85mm ƒ/1.8G, 4 – Alienbees B1600, 4 – PocketWizard Plus, ISO 100, ƒ/5.6, 1/200

Another school year and another play for our family. My daughter’s high school is putting on Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night this fall. I just shot the publicity photos.

Here is the lighting diagram for the photo above.

The leading light is an Alienbees B1600 with a 20º grid to keep the light tight on them. I put just enough on the light on the background to just light it and then used a CTO gel over a Alienbees positioned behind the background which had a 30º grid.

I enjoyed shooting this for my daughter and her classmates. I hope we can get more people to show up to the show because the photos helped generate more attention.
