Video Game Shots

I have been meaning to get some small shots up of the Greg Hastings video game player profiles up on this blog so everyone can see what I have been talking about the past few months.

Below are the four shots required for each player. A mug shot with their name and team so the programmers know who is in the picture, then a serious look, half smile and then a full smile.



I shot the players using to Photoflex small softboxes positioned on each side of the player. As we did not know the availability of electricity at each of the fields we opted to use the Nikon CLS (Creative Lighting System) with my Nikon D300 as the master then 2 SB800 within the softboxes. This worked really well for us as we were not reliant on the field owners.

Some people would come in and take snap shots of their players as I was shooting. The point and shoot flashes would throw of the system (they would not fire).
