Great work Gary. Very well done mate
I don't see that putting the primary diffusers back in the strip boxes can do anything but good, though maybe you don't need them.
The shadow at the front of your pic looks like it might be a reflection from the darker top of the background. Maybe it will vanish with a higher camera viewpoint?
Killing/controlling the reflection by turning a polariser to 90 degrees is a cool idea It will also affect the light wrap on faces, but only top and bottom, not the sides at that angle of rotation. Camera height will also be critical (35-40 degrees to the floor from memory).
Purely out of being nosey, I would love to see three pics of just the background, with blinkies shown in action. a) shot where the background is just blown pure white all over, b) with the lights turned up half a stop, c) with the lights turned up one whole stop
Guys,
I'm going to need to go one step further before I am happy. I want to black out both the left and right wall, and the ceiling, as had a bald guy in today who caused me a few problems
So, not quite as perfect as I thought. I have bought 30 metres of blackout cloth, and I will be finished before midnight!
Wish me luck. I need it
Gary.
****! NO MILK!!!
sounds terrific Gary
and so pleased that you're sharing it with us
looking forward to pictures of the studio
and picture using the studio!
You, Gary Whittle, SUCK!
Sorry for lack of updates, tooooooooooo busy...I will get round to it soon I promise.
It's working well, getting me overall a nice presentable set out of camera. I just process photos which are bought now.
My current NEW biggest issue is if someone gets too close to my Octobox, it overexposes by quite some margin. Always easy to recover in processing, but defeats the purpose of process free. I think this would be an issue in any studio without a portable keylight...

Well yes, it will. ISL and all that. Can't you move it back? One of the advantages of a big softbox is that you can move it back, which minimises ISL fall-off, but still get soft light.
Did you have a go with a polarising filter on the floor reflections?
