It was only a day after covering South by Southwest for E! News that they booked me on another shoot. I thought that was pretty cool. This time I didn’t have to travel to Austin. Instead I ventured across town to shoot an interview and some b-roll with an up and coming fashion designer named Nini Nguyen.
We shot the interview in her living room. I used a 400w Kino Flo as the key and my 200w as a backlight. There was plenty of daylight seeping in so I used my 5.6k bulbs. I set up an Arri 650w to hit the background with a slash of light. I placed a full CTB gel on my Arri 650w to match the daylight coming in. After the interview she gave us a tour of her closet. Nini pointed out some of here favorite items.
This shoot didn’t take long. We were in and out pretty quickly. I was shooting on the HDX 900. Once the tapes were handed off to the producer I headed home with plenty of time to enjoy the rest of the day. Sweet.
