I have a keen interest in product photography and graphic design, so for my Final Major Project, I chose to create a series of commercial product photographs of a bicycle taken in a studio using light painting. A technique that involves taking multiple frames using the same position and camera angle while moving a light source into a different position in each frame in order to light the bike from different angles. Then combine the frames together in Photoshop to create a photo where the bike is being lit from several different angles at once.

I also designed a mock-up e-commerce website for the photos to be presented on.

I took inspiration from commercial product photography, and my goal was to try to achieve a similar level of quality and display the bike in the best way possible as if the photos were going to be used to advertise the bike. Then I designed the mock-up e-commerce website to show how the photos would look in this setting: https://lukeelgar1925.wixsite.com/carrera-website-fmp
