Theater gel set up
Thanks Chris, it was a lot of fun and I am hoping to really utilize it in the near future. Enzie, I am not certain what the material is but I have included a photo of the studio set up. It comes in a large sheet that I keep rolled up in a tube to protect it. To use I duct tape a dowel to a tripod and then hang the gel from the dowel using artists tape. You can see that I placed the light behind the gel and the model's chair in front. The major problem is setting it up so that the model is lit but I am not staring into the light source.
I did this skecth as practice because I have a great model coming to the art center who will be dressed as a voyager. I thought it would be a fun challenge for the students to paint him in costume using the gel.
I would love to see how others use this.
