2.35 - "Needs Work" 

Kerana - lead singer of Kerana and the cosmonauts featuring their mascot at the time - Gosho the pink unicorn. They write and perform songs in Bulgarian and their genre is hard to define, but their energy live is exhilarating and especially Kerana's bombastic attitude.

Lighting is a classic 3-point setup with the fill being a large silver reflector. Key is a 120cm deep circular softbox and rim is a 35x120 cm stripbox -- both are gridded since I'm working in a relatively small studio and I wanted to keep a dramatic vignette and contrast overall.

The chair / stairs (yes, it flips from a chair to a step-ladder) is the signature piece in my studio and it's an amazing tool to elongate legs and allows for all sorts of weird angular posing.
