Martyrs and Kings

 

Martyrs and Kings came second in the Jagz Band Competition so one of their prizes was a days shoot with me.
We started out at the fantastic Alma Pub in Windsor which has a fantastic interior for shoots, see below.....
 
Then we moved to Windsor town centre where we utilised a bright yellow shutter, then onto the location you see below, basically it is a very large metal container behind an office in a business park just outside Reading.
 
 
As you may see from the image, I changed the colour balance of the camera to Tungsten to get some cool blues in the ambient light, then put a CTB (Colour Temperature Orange) gel over the main flash facing the band and kept the flash that is rear right un-gelled to give a cool blue rim light to the band, while the gelled light brings the band back to normal colour temperature.
 
I got the band to do some different relaxed poses for me looking to and away from camera, after, we went into Reading to a location that had a fantastic mural painted on the wall.
After about seven hours of shooting we called it a day and headed home.
