Clear explanation with a spectacular demonstration Hannah! You nailed the timing on the jump and the powder. The final images are stunning. Thanks for sharing this!
Great tutorial and information...even better to see the good rapport you have with your client, looks as though you BOTH had fun doing the shoot. My thinking is if the model has an idea what is going on they will be alot more immersed in the process.
Thanks so much Nick. Yes I always believe that you need to communicate with your subject at all times. It's the only way to achieve the best results in my opinion. It also much more fun as you say :)
This was awesome. I’ve used flash duration mostly when dragging the shutter to gain ambient light and still freezing a subject. Must have a bash at this. Maybe one of my chef clients will be up for it. I’m guessing that the super short flash duration mode is a Profoto feature. All those dust particles at only 1/100 is pretty bloody cool though 👍🏻 Love it.
Thank you so much! That would be great to try with the chef! To my knowledge Profoto and Broncolor have fast flash durations. I'm not sure how this compares with other brands. What ever you use, just keep it at a lower power. Good luck - pancake day coming up soon, could always use flour! :)
@@HannahCouzensPhotography Some action pack like Lumedyne action pack, it's built in a way that the highest power actually has the fastest or shortest duration. But for most strobes it's generally true that the lesser power the faster the flash duration.
Good question. I can't remember the exact number, but I try to keep it as low as possible to have the shortest flash duration to freeze the movement. Most flashes has shortest flash duration at the lowest power, so if you want more power you would want to add more flashes and keep the output at the lower numbers, or increase ISO. There are flashes with shortest flash duration on highest power output, but they tend to have a much longer duration than the B10's at output power 2 out of 10. Having 1\50,000 of a second duration, making them perfect for freezing movement.
@@bpike01 Yes. You will most likely have shorter duration on 1/128th power than 1/1 on a strobe. Use two at 1/128th instead of increasing the power of one strobe when you need more light. Also find ways of controlling the light in your scene in other ways, such as blocking windows light or turning off overhead lights. Hope that makes sense.

As brilliant as ever.
Thank you very much James!
That was simply amazing! Thank you so much for this class. God bless you. Regards from Brazil!!🎉
Thank you so much, glad it was helpful =]
How are you able to achieve focus on your gymnastics when you turn off all lights? I have trouble with that.

Thanks very much Thomas! We had a lot of fun doing it! =]
I really appreciate your expertise and especially that you shared it.
Thanks so much! =]
Excelente
Muy bueno👍🏻

This was so fun to watch! Now you have me wanting to try this! Ha!
Thank you Clark! Definitely give it a go! It's lots of fun! =]
Thank you, Hannah. Your video was very practical and helpful. Also, easy to understand. Keep up the good work!😊
Thank you very much for your kind word Eero =]
I only recently found your channel and love your videos, subscribed and bell rung.
Thank you very much! =]
How do you keep your V-Flats from warping and straight like yours are?
A really good Video! Thank´s for this lesson!
Thank you very much Jörg Haas =]

@@HannahCouzensPhotography I think you read my mind 😉

Do you remember your flash power settings?
Good question. I can't remember the exact number, but I try to keep it as low as possible to have the shortest flash duration to freeze the movement. Most flashes has shortest flash duration at the lowest power, so if you want more power you would want to add more flashes and keep the output at the lower numbers, or increase ISO.

@@HannahCouzensPhotography by low flash power you mean something like 1/128 or similar? I have Godox strobes.
