Lots of space is needed in a studio to minimise accidents, as there will be all the equipment in there so it isn’t safe to be in a confined environment when it’s set-up. Since most of the equipment used in a studio is electric, it is important you bare in mind the amount of extension leads you are using, it is best to use mostly outlets as it’ll decrease the risk of a fire starting and chances of tripping over the extension lead wire. You need to ensure there is enough space to set-up the equipment – Camera, tripod, backdrop and various lights that will be used. Backdrops come in different colours and sizes; so depending on what the studio is set-up for it may be practical to have a few rolls spare in case the one set-up isn’t suitable for the job you are going to be doing. Reflectors are handy to have around a studio, as they reflect light from spaces they shouldnt be to spaces you want them to be.
Various styles of photography can be achieved in Studio, such as;
- Fashion
- Portraiture
- Advertisement
- Hair
- Beauty
- Animal
- Still Life
- Food
However a bad thing with studio photography is that you are enclosed to just a studio; you are unable to go out and achieve other styles of photography, such as;
- Landscape
- Sport
- Macro – although this could be done in studio, it works better outside
- Wildlife
- Beach
