I’ve always been hugely inspired by Freasaloz’s posters, and how photorealistic they look. There’s a certain crisp, sharp quality about the shadows in his posters which I tried to emulate here. So I experimented with a totally different way of lighting than my usual procedure so that I can get a different look for this. I don’t think I’ve managed to do achieve that yet, and probably need more practice and knowledge on how light actually behaves in the real world. Also paid special attention to the bounce lights which represent the light reflected from the grass and environment.
