Clifton Li Photography

I was invited by Fairchild Radio to photograph the performers of the upcoming Chinese New Year Event, 《四海同聲》春節聯歡晚會 (click to see a Chinese description). The event will be held on Feb 14, 2010 at Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Toronto.

The photographs are to be used by Wilson Chiu for the event poster, and to be published in the Feb. 2010 issue of PLEM magazine.

The performers were asked to do a promotional video at Fairchild TV studio. Unfortunately, I need to do my photoshoot during the video recording. Therefore, continuous lighting (tungsten colour) was my only option. The main disadvantage of this is the low light output. So I used a fairly high iso, moderate shutter speed with a relatively wide aperture.

Here is a quick behind the scene with some preview of the pictures:

Performers are listed but not limited to:
王越 – Sophia Wong, 陳玲俐 – Lily Chang, 姜曉 – Jiang Xiao, 陳琳, 許哲筠 – Claudia Hui, 趙苑晨, 馬艶冰 – Lena Ma, 張輝萍, 鈔藝萍, 楊琳

Lastly, I would like to thank George, Wilson, and Lisa from Fairchild Radio for giving me this wonderful opportunity!
