Before you Begin<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n
Visit the library’s Ask Us! Desk to confirm your reservation and check out a key to the Studio.<\/li>\n
Please note that digital cameras are not provided in this studio. If you need a camera you can check one out from the library’s Ask Us! Desk (availability is limited).<\/li>\n
Multiple photographic backdrops and clamps are provided. Please feel free to switch out the backdrop to suit your needs, but please remember to neatly fold and secure any unused backdrops and accessories.<\/li>\n

\n
During your Experience<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n
Start with one light; from there you can add more to act as fill, hair lights, or reflectors.<\/li>\n
Gold umbrellas will add more heavily contrasting light; white will add muted light.<\/li>\n
Need more contrast? Move the umbrella lights further away from your subject.<\/li>\n
Move your lights around between sequences for added variety in your images.<\/li>\n
Use the green screen background to edit your backgrounds using Adobe Photoshop.<\/li>\n
Saving images as a “raw” file format makes them ideal for Photoshop editing.<\/li>\n
And please, maintain an acceptable volume level; this space is NOT soundproof.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
\n
Before You Leave<\/strong><\/h5>\n
