PT4U Fashion Apprentice 2012 Day 1
The first day of the 2012 PT4U Fashion Apprentice has started and what a day it turned out to be. The day began with the initial interview stage where you get to meet the two new apprentices Deborah Selwood and Tom Keenan.
Mark Cleghorn interviews Deborah Selwood and Tom Keenan separately to find out a little more about who they really are and their individual backgrounds in life and photography.
PhotoTraining4U member Deborah Selwood (bottom left) is a professional photographer from Nottingham and is a member of the MPA. She currently has her Licentiateship with them and Deborah wants to take everything that she will be learning over the next 12 months and go for her Associateship.
PhotoTraining4U member Tom Keenan (above right) is a young, enthusiastic photographer from Kent currently studying photography at university. Over the next 12 months Tom is looking to absorb all he can from Mark and the PhotoTraining4U Masters to push his photography to the next level.
With the interviews over, Mark told the two apprentices what their challenge is going to be over the next 12 months. The first day of every visit to the PT4U studio is going to be 'The Project '. Deborah and Tom will shoot a series of images over the year with their final image in mind. The 2012 Fashion apprentices are to take the seven elements of photography into consideration from lighting, pose and structure, composition, style, exposure and story telling to create their final image.
Mark has given the two apprentices the challenge to capture and create the image that they feel ' The Project' reflects by pushing their creativity and style using masking within Photoshop and onOne Software to create the final image.
The set up :- Lighting the background we have two Elinchrom BX500ri flash heads with Lastolite 90x90 studio flash softboxes. The main light is a Elinchrom BX500ri flash head with a rotalux octa box. For the separation lights, we have another two Elinchrom BX500ri flash heads with two more Lastolite 90x90 studio flash softboxes.

' THE PROJECT '
The scene is set and Deborah and Tom now know what they have to do. The Project is going to be shot on green screen ( chroma key) during the 12 months apprenticeship. When using green screen the lighting must be perfect, so metering is essential making sure that you evenly light the background and that there is no green reflectance coming back onto whatever subject you are shooting.
