Using a projector for awesome and unique effects
You probably have use one during work, or maybe you have a great Home Theater system, projectors are used in many different situations.
They are awesome for gaming, presentations and of course movies.
But did you ever think about using it as a light source?
The main different between a monitor/tv and a projector is that the projector projects light onto a screen and that creates the image, where a monitor/tv is a flat screen. So what if we replace the screen for our model.

Two light sources
Now when you hear a broad lightsource you might think it always means flat lighting, but that's not necessarily the case.
When you move the lightsource to the side of the set you get a beautiful shadow site on the model and because of the open sides of the lantern it will also light the background. If you think the shadow side is a bit too dark you can easily place a reflector on that side because the lantern is a very broad lightsource so it "always" reflects back on a reflector on the other side.

When we shoot a product or a business I always want to know what the product is, or what the company does, and most of all, which mood fits the product/company.

Working with the optical spot from Westcott to create stunning images
When you want to create something different than the standard photo there are a lot of options.
You can add some props, add a nice backdrop, maybe add some smoke and accent lights etc.
But something that will really spice up your shoot is without a doubt an Gobo projector, or optical spot.
In this video tutorial I'm using the Westcott Lindsay Adler optical spot for three completely different sets with our model Lois.
