Banana Studio
Open Day
On the first of
December I went to the Banana Studios open day in Newcastle. It was an unusual
experience to say the least; I was
expecting it to be a day where some top class photographers were available to
give some speeches in their field and for a guy called Karl Shaw to give some demos on
how to set up studio lighting, which was the reason I went. As it turned out I
knew most of what he was saying, so I presume that the talk was aimed at
complete beginners, however I did learn a few lighting set ups, and one in
particular, the Kino Flo lighting set up used by David Bailey, as shown in
the picture on the left. And the other was fairly simple set up shown below.

All of these light setups seem simple enough to create at
college and all the equipment used is available to me, obviously some of the
setups aren’t really relevant to portraiture because they are for hairdressing
but the basics structure of the set up could be used.
