攝Photo: 超現實繪畫人像 – Dave Hill
Dave Hill,1979生於聖地亞哥,現居於洛杉磯,他是一位擅長運用電影敘事手法進行攝影創作的攝影師,每張作品都在敘述著一段故事。他的攝影風格是屬後製風,Dave Hill作品具有強烈的繪畫風格,深受許多人喜愛與模仿(也有許多人痛恨這種很不寫實的風格),Dave Hill並未公開他的密技,他只透露其作品並非HDR,他都是採用燈光補光方式去呈現,而且需要大量的後製過程。
下面是Dave Hill的重點回應:
很高興大家喜歡我的作品,但是我實在不能透露太多細節。我並不是一個PS高手,我也不是使用HDR或是其他類似的方式。blah blah blah…我非常喜歡用燈,而且我必須說我的照片看起來會有那樣的效果都是因為燈光設定的關係。PS當然也非常重要,但是你還是必須先取得一個乾淨的RAW檔。過多的處理只會給你數位雜訊、斷階等等問題,這些問題在Flickr上看還好,但是要出圖列印的時候就會是垃圾了。我會建議攝影初學者花較少的時間在PS,但是花更多的時間在拍攝、玩燈和學習如何引導你的被攝者。Blah blah blah….
Hi guys,
Wow, I’m flattered by all this talk! I’m glad some of you like my work. I really can’t share much about specifics, and I’m not a photoshop guru, but I am definitely down to discuss. I haven’t used HDR or that tone-mapping stuff. I just recently heard about it, and it seems you need to bracket your images to do it well. That would be almost impossible when shooting humans!) In terms of cameras, depending on the budget, I use canon digitals and H1’s; all prime lenses. Canons are SOOO fun and easy to shoot with, but the H1 files are crisp, edge to edge, and print bigger. Kinda a trade off. I’m a big fan of using lights, and I’d say the primary factor of how my images look is the lighting setup. Photoshop is of course crucial as well, but you gotta have a clean raw file to begin with. Too much processing can give you nasty digital grain, halos, all that stuff, which may look good on Flickr, but when printed on paper for a portfolio that an art director sees, looks like junk. I would totally suggest that new photogs spend less time on Photoshop and more time shooting and playing with lights, and learning how to direct their subjects. As to the comment about $50k shoots… haha… that made me laugh. For sure my budgets have been getting bigger, but a lot of the stuff on my site paid peanuts. You really have to work your butt off; lots of sweat, set-building, hauling lights all over the place, day after day, for at least a few years etc. But that’s part of the adventure, right!? Let me know if u guys have any more questions. Thanks!
