I don’t agree but I guess you can’t win ‘em all

@@authenticfilms7show us the psd tiff c1 file to know if you actually retouched it well.

Thanks for your comment, we’re stoked that you appreciated it. Cheers

😂

Thank you, I'm glad you found it useful 😊

I'm glad to hear that you learned from the video that's awesome but just to clarify it's not my process it's Derek Henderson's process he was kind enough to let me film it and share it.

You’re welcome 😉

You’ve nailed it! That is exactly the concept I had in mind when I made the film.

@@authenticfilms7 We are looking forward for new videos then!

@@technicalstandardsofkingdo4474 glad to hear that. I have a new one I'm finishing off at the moment that I'll load soon. Cheers

Cheers Thierry I appreciate that

Thanks Findlay, I'm delighted to hear that you've come back to the channel and enjoyed what you've found. I made this film because of the comments on the other Derek Video you mentioned. It seemed alot of people wanted technical details so I thought I'd make one that's very technical and here it is. If anyone is reading this and wants to see the film Findlay is referring to it's called Derek Henderson shoots portraits for ZARA

😂 glad we saved the Octa. Cheers James that’s a great comment

Thanks Martin, much appreciated comment

Thanks

Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I'm a bit like you I like to turn everything up and see how far we can take it but I guess that kind of drama might be a bit more RollingStone magazine than American VOGUE lifestyle.

Thanks for your lovely comment, I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

It's kind of boring and annoying to have to do this and i really don't want to get into it with a nameless faceless person online but I feel that I have to because your wrong on lots of points and i don't want anyone to be misled by your mistaken opinions. So I'll go through them one by one from the top. The boom statement...where to begin. Booms offer lots of advantages over having the light fixed to the top of the stand I can't be bothered to list them all because this reply would be too long but your main concern seems to be safety so lets tackle that. As you can see the ground is uneven so we wanted to place the model where Derek wanted her to be for the composition and then find a flat spot away from those "crashing waves" to place the stand which we did. The boom gave us the ability to then place the light exactly where it needed to be and if Derek decided to move the model he could move the light without having to pick up the whole stand and pack to do so. Ok next hanging the pack from the stand, you could do that it's a good idea, I've seen it done, it seems like an unnecessary step but I'll give you that one in the name of safety but we didn't and it worked fine it wasn't wet where the pack was, so all good. Next talent holding the light, that's wrong we had two assistants they are listed in credits, maybe you didn't watch that far or just presumed because the assistant looked like a model she was one? but no two assistants on this. Next budgets your right they have gone down but we had no budget for this we all did it for free, we just did it because we thought it was a cool idea. Next the assistant doesn't know the name "speed ring" got me again, neither do I or did Derek and we've both been doing this for 20 plus years, we all know how to set one up as did the first assistant Chad when he showed in the film how to set it up. It's one of those, need to know things you know? You can know what it is and how to set it up without knowing the name of it. It doesn't really matter but you used the fact he didn't know the name to imply that he doesn't know what he is doing and that we put him in a perilous situation holding the "fly swater,' because of his lack of knowledge which is laughable. Chad is a big strong Rugby playing New Zealander who just got on with it and successfully wrested the fly swater for 15 minutes safely and has returned to his life as a successfull freelance photographer completely unscathed by the experience. Is that it? Oh insurance, we have public liability and the gear is rented so that has insurance added on top of the Bill automatically. No one was hurt in the making of this shoot but thanks for your concern.

Thank you, I went to Italy once to photograph a wedding and loved it. I’ll be back . Cheers from Australia

Thanks for your comment Adam, I don't know what the tripod is you would have to ask Gary. It's an old one though and I'd guess it is a Linhof.

It's a Gitzo tripod. I have one like it that I used for large format (8x10). Haven't used it in years! :)

Thanks for your comment Deb
