Join me as together we will be recreating at least one scene from Obsession. Perhaps more if time allows.

Obsession had excellent use of shadows and I will do my best to recreate some of the shots. I will explain my working theory, the processes I use to get that high contrast image to get deep shadows, and how to backlight and balance the lighting so you can have a usable image for post processing. This will be a collaborative exercise where I will be the guide.

Note: There are only 12 spots and this will be a popular one!
