You are very welcome!
Print gradients on 2 pieces of A2 acetate going from white, to clear, to black, and then you can go out and buy plain A2 sheets of any colour card, place the gradients on them, and you have a gradient in any colour. The acetate prints are relatively inexpensive £4, $5, €4.3, but if you take care of them then you can use them for years, and all you have to do is get a Pantone colour of what you are shooting, go to a paper supplier online, enter that number and they'll have perfectly matching coloured card with you in a couple of day for pennies.

I actually just got my first professional job to shoot beauty products long term for a big company and I'm absolutely looking forward to using your advice. If you ever set up a Patreon account or the likes I'll be sure to leave something there, you more than earned it.

I'm really enjoying your content dude! It's awesome seeing your thought process, but you, as a person, seem super genuine and cool af. Never realized how much I would enjoy "simple product photos" until I had to do it. Finding your videos helped me make something I was really happy with. Oddly, happier than some of the landscape photos I took of beautiful places. Strange 😅

Amazing, and for the second look it is more natural to the eye to have the bright on the side graduating to dark to the front so the sides of the product will be in separation from the bg.and the transition in the front is smooth and not a cutoff straight black line like the first setup. Brilliant...!

Also on the mark 11:39 when you raised the camera and looked down on the product it DID NOT show the reflection that puzzled you which was by the way always there . It only showed when the camera was low shooting horizontally likely reflecting the top edges of the two side gradient cards converging in like V shape, amazing how the reflections play with curved mirror like surfaces, it is as if you are shooting with wide zoom up converging the sky scrapers in..

@botvidsson
4 жыл бұрын
For this one I use a 24-70mm/2.8, not the 100mm macro lens. The only reason was that I wanted to have the camera close just for the video so you guys can see. Normally I would use 100mm, much better to place the camera as far wy as possible so it will not reflect into the product.
thank you for all interesting info
