+ | [* icon_caution] ***THIS STEP SHOWS TWO EXAMPLE SETUPS. As long as there is no nonwhite background visible (or it is correctable in post), build this how you see fit; there are no "wrong" designs.*** |
[* icon_reminder] ***When using posterboard, use the MATTE side. Glossy materials and light do not mix, and reflect light in ways not found with matte materials.*** | |
[* red] ***Setup a backdrop support.*** This can be anything from a cut-to-size trifold board (the same type you used in "school") or a custom design. I chose a custom design to more easily modify it to my specifications for top lighting. | |
[* orange] ***Setup your white background.*** Once the backdrop is stable, minimize as many unsightly areas as possible. You are ready. | |
[* yellow] ***Take a few test photos (Optional).*** If you are unsure about the end result, take 1-2 test shots for review. Make adjustments until you are happy with the end result. |
