product photography ideas

when it came time i booked my studio i had nothing to do, so i started to mess around with shooting paper animals. (there was a weird effect that occurred, if you look closely on the back gr

ound of the baby powder and the cow you can notice a black shadow aro

und it)

so for myproduct i was hoping create a diorama sort of scene with animals or dinosaurs, iv bought some toys dog so i was going to try and advertising dog food w

ith a caption like "all dogs love this dog food even toy dogs". I was also thinking using the dinosaurs in maybe trying to advertise moisturizer or something.

ideas?

ideas! thinking about it after a while i was hoping to do kids toys for a brochure. toys id like to use are barrel of monkeys, play doh, mr potat o head, gumby, army men, game, toy cars

test shoot with barrel of monkeys

final shoot with barrel of monkeys!!

well im really happy with the way this one went! i got the action and the movement in the monkeys that i was hoping for. also managing the lighting to wrap AROUND the barrel instead of looking like a dogs breakfast. but still i think it can maybe use a little more done to it

shoot with game boy

play doh ideas:

my shoot with the play doh!

i liked the composition of the idea for the other play doh add but i think its a bit to messy, so i decided i would stick with the idea of having some of the play doh out of the bucket, but i was more content on it being rolled up into balls, it was a much more appealing than having it in a big seedy lump on top of the buckets. the major problem i faced was with the rough shadows left from the play doh balls, i tried fixing them with another soft box on the other side but it started to look messy with the shadows. i found moving the light higher and directing it down eliminated the problem, but i think i like it more with the shadows and the table was to close to the back ground witch created the pink highlights in the shadows. so.... i think i might have to reshoot
