As I will be either creating GIF's or cinemagraphs from my shoots I wanted to look at portrait lighting set up so I have more knowledge of what I will be able to achieve while shooting. From this reseach I have learnt that there are many different lighting set ups that can be used for studio photography. This research was good to undertake prior to shooting as I can now use this as reference for myself and the photographer so that I will get what I want from each shoot.

Below is a video from YouTube of Lindsey Adler giving advise of how to create Cinemagraphs from the concept, to the lighting and then the to the editing. This video has really helped me to develop my concept before reshooting any designs and planning the shoot. Below are the top tips which I have learnt from this video.
What is
needed to create a cinemagraph
Tripod to
hold camera 3-20 seconds of video
Get exposure and white balance right on camera
settings before shooting, as you cannot edit this after
Shoot in manual exposure to ensure exposure doesn’t
change while filming, low ISO to decrease noise – use high-resolution video
settings
Lighting
Use natural light if possible or modeling
lights
No flickering light
Tips
Ensure model face doesn’t move while filming,
as you wont be able to take a still from the image
