Nice stuff, Leo. Left you a comment on your flashlight image (which is my fave of the bunch). Depending on your intentions are for the images (just having fun/creating a commercial port), they're either nice or need work.
I have to agree with pamb on the keyboard hand poses, as I have been a typist for more decades than I care to admit. One of my pet peeves in movies is when someone starts "typing" and it's so very clear they're just wiggling their fingers over the keyboard (best example is Scottie in Star Trek 4). This might work for a hand model port, but even so, the hands are not very "expressive".
The product ads are clean and well lit, but for me also lack "punch". Commercial photography is not just about showing the product, but also selling it. As a general note for both sets, I feel they are lacking in the highly emotional/visceral quality that your other stuff is known for. I do believe it's possible to merge the two styles successfully. |
