p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Live performance stages, backdrops and FX lens angles | |
A musician I've shot many times and I were having a conversation recently about how bands, like goldfish, tend to expand to fill their habitat - specifically whatever stage they're performing on - and the implications regarding backdrops and what the camera sees, etc.
This is the diagram I used to show him why so many shots catch whatever the misc is on either side of the backdrop and compared the smallest stage I've photographed them on to the largest. It didn't really matter to me but it seemed eye opening to him that they readily performed in a tiny space but then swelled to fill the larger stage, really thinking only of the orthographic projection or "dead square" view of the background.
Anyway, I thought some of you might find it a useful illustration for whatever purpose.
