Self crit: I know I mentioned Photoshop as being one of the keys but we ran out of time before our video guy had to go to Africa for another project. 

Sorry everyone <3

That was AWESOME.  I loved the images.  Vid was pretty fantastic, too!

Thank you :D

Far better than most super elaborate/expensive setups.

Keep up the vision.

Thanks! It's nice to keep it simple in my opinion. :)

Amen

And dramatic vision trumps $10,000 parabolic umbrellas any day :)

Nice project Ryan!
I only would like to know how a sb-600 can cover the apollo that is so big, while I knew that a flash like the sb-600 could cover at maximum an ezybox 30''. Do you put it with the parabole at 14mm? because at 24mm it cannot cover it..
a part this little curiosity great images!

Fired at anywhere from 1/10th - 1/4 power the softbox actually fills quite nicely I find @ 14mm. It can be a little sparse at times depending on how quickly the batteries are cycling but I've never run into any issue with a single SB600.

pretty good job done there (=

This was pretty amazing great work there. I hope this guy wins :D

Superb! The concept and BTS video were well executed and the outcome is a beautiful piece of work. Kudos to Ryan and his crew. 

Very powerful video!  Great work!
