Some lighting shenanigans

When it's too cold to set even a toenail outside, and the rooms you want to photograph for work aren't ready. I paid for this umbrella kit, so I'm going to use it.

For now it's just a trifold posterboard for a backdrop. Using the shoot-through umbrellas tonight. Megumin and Yunyun are our models. Using the 50mm f/1.8D lens at f/5.6 in aperture priority.

First, right LED only.

Adding the overhead desk lamp.

Left LED only

Left plus desk.

Both LEDs

And finally both LEDs plus desk.

As you can see, the addition of the desk light adds a yellowish cast to the image. Almost peach. The LED lights are rated at a color temp of 5700K. The desk lamp is a hotel standard desk lamp that came with the room.

A fellow anime redditor suggested a light box if I was going to continue with figure or product photography. After seeing what they got with a 16x16x16 box, I decided to order one for myself. I wanted to go the next size larger, but after taking measurements of my desk, the 16" box is my better option.

Boopenings to @sirfrogsworth. Hope you're getting to feeling better, and I'd like your thoughts on light boxes. In addition, I have some wide-angle shenanigans planned for the Three Sisters Bridges in the city once the weather breaks.

My lightbox from Reading Portal came in today and I am a bit disappointed actually considering what I paid.

With currency conversion, shipping and customs fees, I paid exactly €84 (Ik Ik) for this box and it's just... it looked way better on the pictures. Like hell even the picture I just took looks better than in real life 💀😂 (😭). Moreover in real life I would say the light box kinda looks better off than when it is on. Hahaha that is not how it's suppose to be.

The box looks lowkey empty. It would be so much nicer and have more depth if more layers were used.

Like obviously i will still keep it. I think I would simply enjoy the box more if I hadn't paid so much in the end😭😂. But one amazing thing I have to point out is that it has rechargeable batteries.

Short Fan Animation ✨

Animation practice using Pencil 2D. I based the concept on a Spanish film franchise. All characters belong to Enrique Gato, Lightbox Studio and Mediaset España.

- Audio from the movie "Scott Pilgrim VS The world."

- Song: "Ramona," from Beck.

- Concept based on "Tad the lost explorer"/"Tadeo Jones" movies.

PS: this is only a parody. Some things in the video aren't canon to the original plot. I'm just trying to entertain and have fun drawing. I hope you enjoy it 👍

How it started vs. How it's going

9 months of practice. 9 months of progress.

This was my most complicated attempt to date. When I heard that the Wicked film was actually going to materialize, I decided to use this piece as a measure of progress gained. It isn't easy sometimes in the midst of the grind to see if things are improving.

This light box contains a small strip of LED lights that can be color changed via remote. There is an option for flash, fade, varying color choices, and light intensity. The 52 piece panel is mounted into a deep wooden shadow box.

Keep working on your goals, my friends.

It may just be worth it. 💚🩷

I suck at taking photos. Are there any tips for photo boxes/light boxes? Shiny objects like these books always reflect the LED lights. DBD at an angle cause otherwise the LEDs would be on Trapper's face.

Also I recently got these books because I thought they were cool memorabilia pieces from the games. I got them both for about $3-4 each. Even got the DBD brand new and was able to redeem the Voxel Meg charm!

Black (light) box

As noted previously, Swapping out the light colored backgrounds for the black yielded some weird results. With the camera in aperture priority and Auto ISO set to full auto, the ISO skyrocketed with just that change.

Later I realized I was still operating with matrix metering, where the camera takes in the light from the entire frame. That's fine for most instances, but I'm doing this...

The camera wants to account for everything outside of the box as well as Akane here.

So now I've switched to spot metering, where the camera will meter from just a selected spot in the middle of the frame. I've dropped to a strict 100 ISO. D600, 50mm f/1.8D lens at f/8.

Uh huh. The camera wanted to do 1/5 sec. I'm on a tripod, but not on a timer. Thus the shake.

Let's see what happens when I use the shutter speeds *I* want to use. 1/60...

1/100

1/125

1/150

1/200

And finally 1/250

The box is plenty bright with a light colored background, but it's obvious a little help is needed.

I KNOW!

An LED bulb from the studio kit, dangled from the arm of a desk lamp and pointing through the top flap of the box. That gives plenty of light and then some.

Same f/8 and ISO 100, but with the big bulb only, the camera now asks for 1/30 sec.

And for comparison, 1/50

And 1/60.

And now let's turn on the box lights as well. It's powered by a mere 5V via USB, so it's not really a powerhouse. This time the camera recommends 1/40 sec.

And once more at 1/50

And 1/60

I was about ready to give up on the black backdrop, as the results up to now were basically crap. It took some literal outside-the-box thinking to bring it back from the brink.

And boopenings to @sirfrogsworth. I've been busy the last few days, as you can see. The figure family is continuing to grow as I recruit more victims, er, test subjects, I mean models.
