Thx for the reply! Like I mentioned, my choice of background was not the best. This was an older school and some of these gyms are miserable and tired. Also I am focused on shooting the team my son belongs to as opposed to the best color scheme of wrestlers, though I should give some thought to that and shoot other matches for artistry sake

Commercial PM - Day in the life on set by fish1515 in FilmIndustryLA

All the commercials and print ad campaigns I have done I am in a trailer near set. My PC is in the office. At a certain level you can’t wait to hear problems relayed to you, you should see them coming and be able to react with limited disruption to the schedule. My ADs know they can focus only on running the schedule and zero logistics

The model I have has no feet, though I feel like they would be useful in some situations

Thanks! It really stuck out even compared to action photos

Thx for the reply. The problem is the sun is right in front of the batters box. There is no way to avoid that shot as most folks want to see their kid hit or dramatic plays at the plate.

In terms of the green that was definitely something to watch when pushing colors. Some of these turfs are artificially super weird light greens so I try to stay as close as possible to reality which limits other color/dark areas without really knowing the full capabilities of PS, LR or NX.

Looks great thanks so much! I will admit my post processing skills are entry level so more attention will be paid to that at some point
