Horror Lighting with a few scary characters from a B-movie - Photography & Video Tutorial From Jay P. Morgan

Today on the Slanted Lens we are here with a few scary characters from a B-movie. We will be looking at how to create lighting for a horror photo shoot in the woods.

This was a difficult shoot for many reasons. We were off in the woods, away from the road and had to carry all the equipment and generators to location. There was poison oak at the location and a lot of make-up needed to be done.

We also struggled with smoke as the shoot progressed because the wind was carrying it into the wrong direction. Teri Groves did an incredible job with make-up. The images turned out great and our three scary characters when put together in the same image looked a bit like a vintage horror film.

Keep those cameras rolling and keep on clickn'.
