Demonstration with tungsten lights.
Rembrandt:
-backlight
-hairlight
-mainlight
-fill/white board
Loop: What NOT to do!
Don’t let that nose shadow run into the lower cheek shadow…
This is what Loop SHOULD look like:
Butterfly:
- make sure the shadow is centered directly under the nose
- and use a bounce card to fill that shadow under the neck
Chiaroscuro:
- point light source
- defined by strong/contrasty shadows
- many different ways of doing it
- you could use venetian blinds or grids or cut shapes in cardboard and shine the light through… snoots, you get the idea.
I only took this sample image of Wayne setting up:
I hope this helps Hannah! 
Samples of: Rembrandt & Butterfly
The focus is on the lighting. So these have to be SOOC for the most part (it’s okay to remove dust and fibers).
4×5 ISO 100 Polaroid
I wish I’d scanned these in at school instead.
But anyhow, here’s the best I could do
photographing the Polaroid’s with my XTi.
High key glass-wear.
Low key glass-wear.
Low key dark bottle.
Flat-wear using shineflug.
