Chiaroscuro lighting - Using light to convey emotion and drama.

WORKSHOP
Work in small groups and using simple backgrounds and flash lights, produce a range of studio photographs that convey the feel and style of either the great Renaissance artists or that of a film noir. 

Practicing: The light directly above the model on the right of her. Flagged so it wouldn't hit Scotty because we wanted him to be a silhouette. and then a light that had a honeycomb (don't remember the real term) over it so make a back lit background to split up the subject and background.
That is for the first picture.

 Set up for the next two: Same as the to one but we added a fill/soft light to the left of the model to get some more light on the left of the models face. But I don't think that it worked as well as they would have hoped.  Then we added in a flag in front of the fill light so it wouldn't get on Scotty again.

My Opinion: Could have had some more light on my right hand which has the glass in my hand but I guess that is the style that they were going for.
