Stole stuff from

♠ItaDei♠ ~Sumisiøn~ Capítulo 1 - Duration: 5:26.

Based on Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy

Adapted by Chloe

In cooperation with Katsku Utakata

I stare with frustration at myself in the mirror. Damn my hair—it just won't behave. I try to brush it and sigh loudly. Damn Naruto Uzumaki for subjecting me to this ordeal

I should be studying for my final exams, which are next week, yet here I am trying to brush my hair into submission. I attempt, once more, to bring it under control with the brush. I roll my eyes in exasperation squeezing the brush

I gaze at the pale, blonde-haired boy with blue eyes staring back at me, and give up. My only option is to restrain my wayward hair in a ponytail and hope that I look semi-presentable.

Naru is my brother, and he has chosen today of all days to succumb to the flu. Therefore, he cannot attend the interview he'd arranged to do, with some mega-industrialist tycoon I've never heard of, for the student newspaper. So I have been volunteered.

I have final exams to cram for and one essay to finish, and I'm supposed to be working this afternoon, but no—today I have to drive 165 miles to downtown Seattle in order to meet the enigmatic CEO of Uchiha Enterprises Holdings, Inc.

As an exceptional entrepreneur and major benefactor of our university, his time is extraordinarily precious but he has granted Naru an interview. Damn his extracurricular activities.

Naru is huddled on the couch in the living room. "Dei, I'm sorry. It took me six months to get this interview. It will take another six to reschedule, and we'll both have graduated by then. As the editor, I can't blow this off. Please, ttebayo" Naru begs me in his rasping, sore throat voice.

How does he do it? Even ill he looks cute and handsome, with his messy blond hair and blue eyes just like mine, although now red rimmed and runny.

He has a cinnamon-coloured skin and three birth marks in both cheeks making him look like a fox

"Of course I'll go, Naru. You should get back to bed. Would you like some NyQuil or Tylenol?"

"NyQuil, please. Here are the questions and my digital recorder. Just press record here. Make notes, I'll transcribe it all ttebayo"

"I know nothing about him," I murmur, trying and failing to suppress my rising panic.

"The questions will see you through. Go. It's a long drive ttebayo."

"Okay, I'm going. Get back to bed. I made you some ramen to heat up later." I stare at him fondly. Only for you, Naru, would I do this.

"I will. Good luck. And thanks, Dei. As usual, you're my lifesaver ttebayo."

Gathering my backpack, I smile wryly at him, then head out the door to the car. I cannot believe I have let Naru talk me into this. But then Naru can talk anyone into anything. He'll make an exceptional journalist. He's articulate, strong, persuasive, argumentative, handsome. And he's my brother.

The rodes are clear as I set off from Vancouver, Washington, toward Interstate 5. It's early, and I don't have to be in Seattle until two this afternoon. Fortunately, Naru has lent me his sporty Mercedes CLK. I'm not sure Katsu, my old VW Beetle, would make the journey in time.

Oh, the Merc is a fun drive, and the miles slip away as I hit the pedal to the metal.

My destination is the headquarters of Mr. Uchiha's global enterprise. It's a huge twenty-story office building, all curved glass and steel with UCHIHA HOUSE written discreetly in steel over the glass front doors.

It's a quarter to two when I arrive, greatly relieved that I'm not late as I walk into the enormous—and frankly intimidating—glass, steel, and white sandstone lobby.

Behind the solid sandstone desk, a very attractive, groomed, young woman smiles pleasantly at me.

"I'm here to see Mr. Uchiha. Deidara Namikaze for Naruto Uzumaki." I decide to use my father's last name for it not to sound weird.

"Excuse me one moment, Mr. Namikaze." She arches her eyebrow.

I wait patiently for her. I'm beginning to wish I'd borrowed one of Naru's formal suits rather than my leather jacket, my jeans, my comfortable boots and my squared t-shirt. For me, this is smart.

"Mr. Uzumaki is expected. Please sign in here, Mr Namikaze. You'll want the last elevator on the right, press for the twentieth floor." She smiles kindly at me, as I sign in.

She hands me a security pass that has VISITOR very firmly stamped on the front. I can't help my smirk. Surely it's obvious that I'm just visiting. Thanking her, I walk over to the bank of elevators.

The elevator whisks me at terminal velocity to the twentieth floor. The doors slide open, and I'm in another large lobby. I'm confronted by another desk of sandstone and another young woman, who rises to greet me.

"Mr. Namikaze, could you wait here, please?" She points to a seated area of white leather chairs.

I sit down, fish the questions from my backpack, and go through them, inwardly cursing Naru for not providing me with a brief biography. I know nothing about this man I'm about to interview. The uncertainty is galling, and my nerves resurface, making me fidget.

I sigh loudly. Get a grip, Namikaze. I guess Uchiha is in his forties: fit, tanned, and fair-haired to match the rest of the personnel.

Another elegant, flawlessly dressed girl comes out of a large door to the right. I breath heavily.

"Mr. Namikaze?"

"Yes," I croak, and clear my throat. "Yes." There, that sounded more confident.

The office door opens and a tall, elegantly dressed, attractive exits. He turns and faces the door.

"Tennis this week, Uchiha?"

I don't hear the reply. He turns, sees me, and smiles, his dark eyes crinkling at the corners.

"Mr. Uchiha will see you now, Mr. Namikaze. May I take your jacket?"

I nodd and struggle out of the jacket. I stand rather shakily, trying to suppress my nerves. Gathering up my backpack, I make my way to the partially open door.

"You don't need to knock. Just go in.

I push open the door and stumble through, tripping over my own feet and falling headfirst into the office.

Crap! I am on my hands and knees in the doorway to Mr. Uchiha's office, and gentle hands are around me, helping me to stand.

I am so embarrassed, damn my clumsiness. I have to steel myself to glance up.

Holy cow... He's so young.

To be continued...

Spekular LED Photography Lights / What is CRI / Part 2 of the LED Continuous Lighting LED Series - Duration: 12:10.

This is Spekular and this is Spekular and this is Spekular and this is Spekular and

this is part two of my LED lighting series.

Spekular is a new modular led lighting system that is being referred to as the Swiss army

knife for lighting.

In this video I am going to put Spekular to the test and I am going to do my best to demystify

those three letters that keep popping up when people talk about lighting…

CRI.

Stay tuned!

Hey gang!

My name is Joe Edelman and my mission is to help photographers like YOU to develop a solid

understanding of the HOWS & WHYS behind great photography so that you can achieve your goals

as a photographer.

The Swiss Army knife for lighting is a great reference for this new LED lighting system

from Spiffy Gear.

In case you don't remember - Spiffy Gear is the company the brought us the Light Blaster

that I showed you in this video.

Spekular is a modular lighting system that can take on all kinds of shapes depending

on your needs and this can save you money and the time needed to pack and set-up light

modifiers especially when you are working on location.

Each of these sections uses only 14.5 watts of energy which means just 58 watts for a

kit of four sections.

Each section puts out 1,500 lumens of light which is about the same brightness as a 150watt

light bulb.

That means 6000 lumens for a kit of 4 sections or a brightness similar to a 600watt light

bulb . Unlike fluorescent lights - there is no flicker with Spekular.

They are daylight balanced at 5600k with a CRI of 94+.

We will talk more about that CRI stuff at the end of the video.

They can be dimmed from 100% all the way down to 10% and they output light at a beam angle

of 120 degrees.

And they are small - just 1.5" or 4 centimeters square and 12 inches or 30 centimeters in

length.

Spekular comes comes as a kit of 4 LED sections.

Each section is built with aluminum and ABS plastic for a total per-section weight of

about three quarters of a pound of which is 335grams.

One section in each kit has the power switch, dimmer switch and plug for the power supply.

Also in the the case are 4 of these cool hinged connecters, a 1/4-20" mount, eight gel holders,

the AC Power Supply and Instructions.

To use Spekular, start with a control section and add a stand mount.

Then depending on the configuration you want to make - in this case I am going to make

a simple panel - you just slip a hinged connector on one end and keep adding pieces.

They just slide right in and then you tighten them in place so that the unit is not going

to come apart while you use it.

The hinged connectors also flip in the opposite direction so that you can create triangles

and hexagons.

Let me say right now that I think this lighting system is brilliant, but please don't lose

sight of the fact that they are small.

So if you are like me and you tend to use large light modifiers - you will need to take

a different approach to your lighting.

That doesn't make it bad - but it does make it different and it definitely helps if you

are comfortable and confident with your lighting skills.

To prove my point - I wanted to use Spekular to create the same lighting styles that I

normally do with my big modifiers.

The folks at Spiffy Gear were kind enough to give me two sets to test out, so I started

with a simple headshot.

You can see here that I have one set of four above the camera as my main light and one

set of four behind my subject to light the white wall.

I was able to shoot this at ISO200 with a shutter speed of 1/100th of a second at f/4.

Then I moved both lights in front of my subject for a simple clamshell lighting effect.

This one was also at ISO200 - 1/100th of a second at f/4

Next I switched to a #62 Purple Seamless Paper Background by Savage Universal and used just

four of the Spekular Panels arranged in a square.

With my subject seated just in front of my background and the Spekular light placed about

two feet in front of her - I was able to shoot this at ISO200 with a shutter speed of 1/100th

of a second at f/4

Next up a different subject in front of a #24 Orange Seamless from Savage, still with

the square arrangement, but this time I have used three additional Spekular panels behind

my subject - one is creating a nice glow on the orange background and the other two are

placed camera right and camera left as rim lights.

For the three lights behind my subject - I have one main bar from the second kit and

the two additional ones are attached using the expansion extension accessory kit.

The expansion kit comes with two additional mounting pieces for light stands, two section

to section extension cords and two straight connectors.

So now I have a four light set-up and a shot that was done at ISO 200 with a shutter speed

of 1/125th of a second at f/4

Next I switched to a #20 Black Seamless from Savage and used the same square as my main

light and just the two rims on camera left and right.

Shooting at the same ISO 200 with a shutter speed of 1/125th of a second at f/4 I was

able to get this series of portraits.

Spiffy Gear also has a cool accessory called the Star Adapter.

This adaptor lets you attach 8 of the LED bars to a central ring.

This arrangement gives you a really sweet broad light source and a very cool catchlight.

This shot was done with my subject sitting in front of a #27 Thunder Gray Savage backdrop.

I shot at ISO 200 with a shutter speed of 1/125th of a second at f/4

Here is the same arrangement on the purple background.

If I add a fan - back the Spekular star up to about 4 feet from the subject you will

notice the catchlight becomes much smaller and I can shoot a beauty shot like this with

an ISO of 400, an aperture of f/4 and an intentionally slow shutter speed of 1/80th of a second to

get some blur on the ends of the blowing hair.

Ok - so mission accomplished - I was able to recreate quite a few of my favorite lighting

styles with Spekular - but how about having some fun with color?

This three quarter length shot was done with just one Spekular kit.

My model is standing in front of a #01 Super white backdrop with two bars on camera left

- unfiltered and at full power.

On camera right, I have two more bars with a blue gel placed over them.

This shot was done at ISO400, 1/80th of a second at f/3.5 The filtered blue light on

camera right is just bright enough to add color to the shadows created from the main

light on camera left.

Next I went back to the black background and placed two bars on camera left as my main

light.

Two bars on camera right with a blue gel and then used two bars with a pink gel behind

my model on camera right and one bar with a pink gel behind my model on camera left.

The pink gels light up her blonde hair and the blue gel is coloring the shadowed side

of her face.

This shot was done at ISO400 and 1/80th of a second at f/4.

For my last set-up I used the same lights and gels but moved the blue set behind my

model on camera left so that it was creating a bit of a rim light - but not filling in

shadows on the face.

At the same settings, I was able to create this series of shots.

In addition to the Spekular Kit, the Expansion Kit and the Star Adapter.

Spiffy Gear also has a Battery Adapter that will allow you to use any DTAP-enabled V-mount

battery.

The Spekular Core Kit sells for $650.00.

The accessory are each priced at $130.00.

Now I know what some of you are thinking… you think this is expensive and that you can

by a few speedlights for the same price.

You could buy a few speedlights for the same price, but you can't match the versatility

that Spekular provides at this price.

Certainly Spekular is not going to be for everyone, but as you have heard me say before

- there is no one light that will meet all of your needs as a photographer.

While I have proven to you that it works great with people, I also think that Spekular is

perfectly suited for shooting products and I have no doubt that cinematographers and

videographers will fall in love with this system.

Just to give you a comparison… a Wescott Ice Light which so many of you GEARtographers

oohed and ahhed over - the Ice Light sells for $500 dollars and has a much narrower beam

output of 72.6 degrees and outputs only 1,740 lumens of light.

In other words its only slightly brighter than 1 Spekular bar - with a narrower angle

and costs almost as much as a whole Spekular kit, so like most Wescott products - it's

overpriced for what it offers.

Be sure to follow the rest of the videos that I will be doing in this LED light series because

I will finish with some hybrid lighting arrangements using Spekular in combination with strobes

and ambient light.

You can purchase Spekular online at spiffygear.com and it is currently available at Adorama and

BHPhoto with more retailers to come.

Oh…. one last tip about Spekular… remember the gel clips that I mentioned…. they also

serve another awesome purpose.

If you buy a role of Rosco Cine Foil - which every photographer should have in their studio

anyway… cut a 12" piece and wrap it around the back of the Spekualr bar - then attach

a gel clip from the back - one at either end and you now have a shapeable set of barn doors

for the Spekular lights.

You could even do the same thing with regular aluminum foil to make a reflector that will

give you a slightly broader right coming from one bar.

So whats the big deal about CRI?

CRI stands for Color Rendering Index.

This is not the same as color temperature that is measured in degrees kelvin.

The simple explanation is that CRI is a measure that shows us how well a light source makes

the color of an object appear to the human eye and how "realistically" or "naturally"

the light source makes different shades appear in relationship to each other.

In other words, CRI explains how accurately a light source is rendering any color in comparison

to daylight.

Is CRI important?

Yes, well not really - well yeah - well let me explain.

It really depends on what you are photographing and how accurate you want or need your colors

to be.

If you are reproducing artwork for cataloguing purposes - you need to work with lights that

have a very high CRI because you need to colors to reproduce accurately and in the proper

relationship to each other.

This would be the same if you were photographing products for advertising or clothing for a

catalog.

If you are doing something that is subjective like a creative shot of a model lit by neon

signs on a city street at night…. you probably don't need to care about CRI as you are

not likely to be concerned about having an exact color match.

The same could be said for a simple portrait.

The bigger the number the better.

CRI is measured on a scale that uses 100 as the best.

Incandescent bulbs have a CRI of 100 because they don't have any color discrimination.

But we all know that incandescent bulbs aren't very efficient.

When it comes to LED's the bulbs are considered good if they have a CRI of 85 to 90, but light

sources which have a CRI of 90 or higher are known as excellent and are the most appropriate

for tasks that require the most accurate color.

Just like any other aspect of science I could dig much deeper into this, the problem is

I would get a headache before you do.

So in short - Higher the CRI - better the color match.

Regardless of the type of work you want to do - keep your CRI above 85 and you will have

acceptable results unless you need that perfect color match - then you need 95 or higher.

Next up in the LED lighting series I am going to take a look at some sweet lighting panels

called Edge Lit Pro from Savage Universal and I am going to put them to use in the studio

AND on location.

Until then, I hope you found this useful.

Please hit that thumbs up and subscribe so that you don't miss any videos and until

next time go pick up that camera and shoot something because your BEST shot - it's

your NEXT shot, so keep learning, keep thinking, keep shooting.

Adios!
