About the video: Model and session address

Overview

“In this lesson I will show you a management style that is generally not used in this type of session. I refer to the theatrical style, which leads us to personification, is much more emotional and not always aesthetic, it does not always seek to show the best attributes of a person but those of a created character.

In this video lesson Eduardo Gómez (Alter Imago) addresses the topic: Model and session address, which is part of the Domestika online course: Dark Conceptual Portraits. Carry out a somber-looking photoshoot from concept to editing.
