Creative with the ELC
Sorry for the overload on Elinchrom ELC posts, but I’ve had to keep the effects secret for a very long time and now that the strobes are officially announced I’m just very excited to show the possibilities of these strobes to you.
Today a very simple effect.
In this setup I used 2 ELC units, the first one fires at the start of the 2 second exposure, the powerful modeling lights create a “blur” effect while the model (Nadine) moves around and at the end of the exposure the second ELC fires to freeze the final pose. It takes some practice but the effects are pretty cool.
These shots were taken during the workshop “Movement and coaching” from last Friday.
Very cool effects Frank… don’t apologize about posts 2 days in a row. In fact, would love to see more along with the technical annotations. These features provide another set of creative tools for image makers and it will be very interesting to see the outcome over time.
Thx. I will update some more in the coming months.
