On Thursday 21st of May our class had another opportunity to visit Kingsize Studios located at Grey Lynn, Auckland. They're open every Mon-Fri, 8.00am to 6pm and weekends 8am-5pm Saturday and Sunday. Kingsize studios offers four spaces: Studio 1 (biggest studio in the country) , a large drive-in with a 7m wide cyc; Studio 3 a medium general purpose space ideal for still life, look books, casting and more; Studio 4 a smaller but dedicated daylight space (with black out) perfect for fashion, portraits, and still life; and finally the Garden Studio: a purpose built out door, daylight space. We met Luke who kindly took his time off to give us a tour around the Studio. They also hire out their equipment which ranges from the oldest to the most recent equipment out. He also showed us a brief demonstration of the basic lighting kit that are usually booked out for most days of the week. It was a very simple setup and he also gave us tips on how we should set up the lights (Cons and Pros). Not only do they hire out equipment but they also offer workshops starting from beginners to the more advanced photographers, intern programs, education and consulting. The focus for all the workshops is practicality: how can we teach you how to be more effective with your tools and skills, so as to make a better image, and potentially, how to earn.

FAILURES
Experimenting with studio lighting and trying to find the correct exposures.
Over Exposed
Looks too dull and overexposed
SNOT FREE! (Well tried my best)
Dry snot, lighting on left is still a bit too bright.
Much better!
During the shoot i didn't realise that the child had dry snots all over her face. I didn't see this until i had a look through properly on the big screen. So i done some researching on how to remove it. I had to do this through every photo. I also turned the exposure up just a little more so when i print it doesn't turn out too .
FINAL
How does the Studio relate to me?
