Well it looks like Project AAA is definitely a "Go" for Saturday, March 14. I received confirmation from the Model and the Make-up Artist (MUA)/Hair Stylist. The MUA owns a retro-salon in downtown Bakersfield called Norma Jean's Atomic Kitten Salon at 2507 F Street, and her work is phenomenal.
This will probably be one of the most challenging shoots to-date for me. It'll be both indoors and outdoors, at Studio In The RAW, and at various locations throughout Bakersfield. We'll have three different looks, wardrobes, hair, make-up, props and lighting. So far the only drawback is the time change. One of the locales closes at 6:00 PM, and the sun is still fairly bright. I may need to use a "day for night" filter like they do in the movies to give the appearance of night.
I'm testing my "off camera" flash equipment tomorrow night to make sure I can trigger my SB-900 with my SB-400 mounted on the hot shoe. If not, I'll rely on my Cactus V2 transmitter, my SB-900 with softbox, and reflector to create a simple low-key lighting effect. Or... I may go to Wal-Mart and buy a portable GenSet so I can bring all my studio lights with me; that would be cheating.
36 hours and counting down, and the nerves are already starting.
Stay Tuned...
