My photographers will not put a light on me in live shots! If you look at my shots, and compare them to other reporters...there is a HUGE difference...instead of a flattering medium shot ...all I get is a WIDE SHOT with shadows all over my face.
What should I do?
I am an attractive reporter that does a solid job everyday--- but I can't feel good about it, because my live shots LOOK LIKE SHIT.
Would you go to management??? Do they care??? |

then i want better lighting!!! as an official old and accused tired guy in a union, no less... i had set and ready to go in my truck a chimera 650 rigged on a c stand so i could place the light right over the lens softening a woman's face... a lowell pro with a 200 bulb on a pepper pot hung on a gib arm connnected to another c stand... and an omni 400 on stand for fill... stinger with three way at end... i was a pig in mud... took all of five minutes to set... usually after editing the lead pkage for the eleven... it's not that hard... and i did it for me...reporters liked it too tho... why shouldn't it look pretty?????
