Glass Lighting

For this task we had to go into the studio and Andy set up dofferent lighting sets to test the different effects the lighting has on the glass bottle. We had to set our cameras to Aperture priority auto exposure with 400 ISO and also had Manual Focus on.

Set 1
For this set the soft box Lighting came from the left side of the bottle causing a shadow.

(Settings - 1/250, F5.6, Iso 400, White Balance - Daylight)

Set 2
This set the sofe box light was placed behind the white background. This lighting techniques makes the bottle dark and shadowy.

(Settings - 1/750, F5.6, Iso 400, White Balance - Daylight)

Set 3
In this set the soft box was behind the bottle, and another soft box lighting was added below the bottle. By doing this it took away the shadows that were in set 2.

(Settings - 1/4000, F5.6, Iso 400, White Balance - Daylight)

Set 4

For this compositionI took a wide angle shot to show the lighting below the bottle. I particularly like the shadow cast.

(Settings - 1/2000, F5.6, Iso 400, White Balance - Daylight)

Set 4

In this composition the lighting was coming from below the bottle with a reflector above casting shadows around the edges of the bottle and also on the background.

(Settings - 1/3000, F5.6, ISO 400,White Balance - Daylight)

Set5
For this set the lighting was careful aimed from above at the writing on the lid of the bottle so that the name of the bottle could be read.

(settings - 1/2000, F5.6,ISO 400, White Balance - Daylight)

Set 6
In this composition the lighting was placed at either side of the bottle casting fate shadaow and a slight reflection on the surface.
(Settings - 1/2000, F 5.6, ISO 400, White Balance - Daylight)

Set 7

For this composition the lighting was placed underneath the bottle with black card at either side. This image shows how the lid of the bottle is very dark and not well lite.

(Settings - 1/4000, F5.6, ISO 400, White Balance - Daylight)

Set 8
Again the soft box lighting is placed below the bottle withthe black card again, but this time a reflector was used to reflect the light onto the lid of the bottle making it shine.

(Settings - 1/3000, F5.6, ISO 400, White Balance - Daylight)
