i know you need a very dark area and lighting. my question is, where do you place the lighting to get these results?

 

Well, look where the highlights are, that is probably where the umbrella's are.
And there is most likely a softbox above the camera and car to get that soft light on the roof and rear window.

 

they are in a studio, the use a long softbox directly above the car to give it a very suddle line of the car. and then they use softboxed strobes on the sides probably pointing almost straight down even with the tires. if i had to guess ha

 

damn that JP GS is sexy, next to the ferrari of course.

 

it ain't lighting, it's software.

 

okay take a picture of your car and edit it to look like that.

 

no its mostly lighting lol
and a bit of software.

go buy me a big soft box and ill prove it to you. lol

Excellent Josh..

I'm going to go find a stripper and try.

 

I'll have better luck I bet. Or atleast it wont cost me anything.

 

You might get a better shot, but I'll probably be the one getting lucky.. And I won't pay for it.

 

OOooohhh we will see about that my friend

 

Oh- we should get car and model silhouette shots at the same time. That would be sick.

Sorry for all the OT Eric(k)

 

I'll put that on my to do list. Ha but yes its soft boxes that are positioned to the sides of the car as well as an overhead light source

 

so... what about nude silhouette pics?

.... bet I could get a girl naked.. take that type of pic, and get lucky... without paying! And, before either of you up there lol


so who wants to buy a big soft box for me.. I got some car pics to do! lol

 

giant soft box and some strobes. We have a cove here at brooks Institute and the soft box we have could shoot a huge truck.

 

doesnt look too hard..
