    I am an apprentice photographer from Germany and have been playing with the idea of working in the commercial sport area after I graduated next year. Since I found you channel a couple of weeks ago and saw the person behind the work and got to see the workflow and behind the scenes I am very certain that I will position myself as a commercial photographer specialized on sports and fitness. Thank-you for the inspiration and I would love to see you critique some viewers work.

    • @QuantzPhoto

      That's awesome, Felix! One recommendation I would have would be to learn the video end of things as well as the photo.

    James thank you again for another great video! As a Carolina alum from the late 90s now living in Indiana I have been following your work for the last several years and have used your Gamecock posters as inspiration for my own work (I even got an old high jump crash mat in studio that I git at a school auction to do the jumping/diving shots!). Would love to see how you create more if the extra elements like grass/dirt as well as a walk thru on some of your previous posters you did. Hope to have opportunity to meet and see a shoot someday! Thank you for your time to explain your craft. @indysportgroup

      @QuantzPhoto  Před 4 lety

      Sure, smart objects are a great way to go as well!

  • @xTeamFacePalm
    @xTeamFacePalm Před 4 lety

    Thank you! Do you have a video of a similar jump/action shot with light placement and camera speed/settings? I’m a still portrait photographer and struggle with high speed photography.

    • @QuantzPhoto
      @QuantzPhoto  Před 4 lety

      I hope to be able to breakdown a shoot like this "on set" in person sometime in the future when we can do it safely. For this image though I was probably at 1/250 of a second and relying on the short flash duration from my strobes to help freeze the action. If you're using natural light around 1/1600 is a good place to start. I hope this helps!
