I am taking advantage of the new large gridded softbbox and I have slightly complicated the light scheme that I have described here. The simple yet effective modifications are:
- Added a flashgun, placed on the floor, between the subject and the backdrop, pointing at the latter, aiming high. This was trigged by a simple photocell shoe.
- Added a silver circular reflector, angled 45 degrees, between the camera and the subject, to reflect back some of the light coming from the softboxes
- Raised (up) and angled (down) a little the two gridded Rotalux.
- Removed the white diffusing cloth from the beauty dish.
You can see the effects of the changes in the bright halo around the subject and in a stronger rim light, especially around the hair.
