Photography and portraits

Sir Edward:
This is somewhat related to the contest thread, but I thought we could start talking about some ideas for some good portrait shots we can get in our kits. I've been able to photoshop up a few pictures, but that's completely limited by what source photos we already have.

So I thought we could come up with some ideas for poses, locations, and overall scenes we could work on. As a very simple example, here's a photo from the Arn movie. He's just praying with his sword. For a simple shot, it's effective. Notice how they carefully framed it so that your eyes are drawn to his, through the crossguard. Nicely done.

Thorsteinn:
Something like this?

Sir Edward:

Yep, very cool! 

I'm always envious when people have some great photos. I'm notorious for only getting renfaire shots, so they're all straight-on, and usually with lots of people in the background. Nice clean scenery and well framed shots are always great to see.

Thorsteinn:
That was for a school project a friend of mine was doing earlier this year.

Repenting for opening my mouth in front of the Princess of The Mists at the wrong time.


Taken just after shooting the video for world wide learn. I figure a big fighting tunic, a camail on the helm, with hidden arms and legs and this would really work.

Sir Ulrich:

This one good? It aint straight on or just a ren faire shot.
