I'm thrilled and grateful over how many of you took the time to answer our survey! It was a much greater response than we expected. Thank you so much!Now, of course, we need to play statisticians and put all this data together in some lucid, intelligible, and comprehensible way. Of course, we'll be keeping everyone's responses safely archived. You never know... this reality show idea might grow some legs and take off running towards production. The writers strike might even prove to be helpful: Reality shows aren't covered by the writers' basic contract and I've been told that producers (and would-be producers) of reality television are suddenly receiving even warmer welcomes at networks and cable-casters.
Thanks again!
You might recognize the Goddess of Glam at the top-- Playboy, Penthouse, and FHM cover girl, Tera Patrick. I applied a brown-toned treatment to the image. (Which I think needs to be browner, i.e,. deeper, darker, browner.) The pic is from a shoot a few weeks ago. Makeup and hair by Ricardo Ferrise. Leesa J, co-creator of our reality show concept, assisted and documented portions of the shoot with some candid, behind-the-scenes, pics. I used three lights and a reflector to light Ms. Patrick. Canon 5D w/85mm prime, ISO 100, f/5.6 @ 125.
Below is a BTS shot of the setup I used for the image at the top. The third light, missing from the pic and modified with a small, silver umbrella, is up on the second-floor landing providing hair-light and some other accents. The guy in the white tee-shirt, scratching the back of his head, is Ricardo, the MUA. The pony-tailed guy with his back to Leesa's camera is your's truly... but you already figured that, right?

Tera in trade for some statistics... feels like we get the better end of the deal ;)
those lights are more than a few feet from tera - and i keep reading that for soft wrap around light you should try adn get those lights in real real close...i'm confused?
benjamin--
you're right. but it's about the size of the light source not necessarily the distance. if you move the lights in closer, the size of the light source becomes larger in relation to the target and will produce a softer light. the octodome i'm using is five feet across and it's about 5' away from the model. (WHich is about as far from the model as I usually use that particular modifier.) if the box were smaller, i'd have to move it in closer to achieve a softer light.
You mentioned three lights. Could you point out where the third one is, please?
