to defer your picture for weeks or
months.
A face and an idea, though, are
not quite enough. All your skill as
4 photographer plus . bit Of direc-
torial ability on your part rs well
as q comprehension by the model
Of the part to be played are i'm
portant ingredients that will be
needed to produce an acceptable
product.
Let us say that you have an idea
for q picture portraying = monk.
Let us also assume that you have
secured a model whom you feel
has the quiet. serious, introspec-
tive appearance we are accus-
toned to look for in these men.
To develop this idea it will be
necessary that you do a bit of
research to determine the proper
type of garb for your subject. Once
this problem is out of the way
you can approximate the costume
with materials you find in your
own home. One or two cleverly
draped pieces of cloth will produce
almost any costume affect that
you may wish to accomplish.
The next step will be to explain
to your model exactly that which
you wish to portray. You will have
to get him in the right mood and
really work with him for just the
right expression. Here is where
you will have to act somewhat in
the capacity of a movie director.
1t will take patience both on your
part and on that of the model,
but a good picture will be we'll
worth all the trouble that it may
involve.
Mood Determines Lighting.
The mood Of your picture theme
should determine the method of
lighting to be used. A serious or
somber theme calls for low key
lighting. On the contrary. a light
and happy theme would demand
a high key treatment. The cloth
ing or costume of the model should
At in with the lighting employed.
For instance, if the picture is to
be in low key register. the clothing
of the model should be quite dark
so as not to produce extremes in
contrast. A high key shot, on the
other hand, would call for light
clothing for the same reason. Be-
fore leaving the subject of costume
we should emphasize the need for
plain and simple clothing for the
model. Heavily figured garments
and too much In the way of cos
tune jeWelry and accessories will
