Describe in detail your make-up & costume needs.

(Include reference material to illustrate your needs)

Make up – Laura’s make up will be natural and normal, however there will be mascara smudges underneath her eyes to imply that she has been crying to add to the theme of depression.

Hair – Laura will be wearing her hair down and straight, it will have the messy effect to indicate the stress and emotions she has.

Costume – For this photo shoot, Laura will be wearing a loose black dress, the reason for this is because the colour is to represent the dark feeling depression has on individuals.

Studio shoots: what kind of lighting?

(include reference material to illustrate your needs)

This photo shoot will use broad lighting. This is because it will shadow half of Laura’s face therefore creating a hidden feel.

Backdrop:

The backdrop for this photo shoot will be white, this is because the images will be published in black and white and will therefore create a white/grey look.

Lighting equipment needs:

For this photo shoot I will need the three lights, flash lighting kit and a reflector due to using broad lighting. All I will need for this photo shoot are the three lights and the flash kits.
