I tried using some gels in one of my test shoots but felt that it did not suit the image. After speaking with my tutor Katy Suggitt I thought that after my deadline I would work on using different gels to light my subject and whereas my shots are full portraits I would try using close ups as well. My tutor and I decided to go into the studio and have a play with the gel lights and the floaty fabric on a mannequin to see how it looks.
We looked out how the fabric looked with two different gels shone on the fabric, the shadows it created behind and how how the close up looks. Below are some example of the images Katy and myself captured. I would like to try and achieve his effect with a dancer in the studio and try coloured gels and close ups
