But split lighting? Yes. This is an example – made just now during a flash workshop – of split lighting.
Split lighting means you light half the face, and the other half is not lit. Simpl.
To make this picture:
- Set your camera to 100 ISO, 1/125th sec, f/8. This will make the room dark.
- Put a flash in the side.
- Put a Honl Photo 1/4″ grid on the flash’s SpeedStrap. This stops the light from reaching the wall and other areas.
- There you go!
You can meter manually or using TTL. I used manual and Pocketwizards, but TTL is fine too (as long as you disable the on camera flash except for commands).
Tomorrow, another flash workshop. I am pumped! But Shiva is less than interested:
