Shooting Levitation, Out-of-body experience and Auric Fields...

My knowledge gained from planning the shoots early on meant that I had a clear vision of exactly how it was going to turn out.  I knew that I needed to create three separate looks.   For the first my model Sophie would need to lie in three positions so that we could make it look like an out of body experience...We shot three different positions so we could then edit them all together for the final look...

The second look was Levitation...For this i'd already planed the look we needed her to lie on something that was easy to edit out, I sourced a thin wooden bench...

For the final look I wanted to create an auric field around her.  I knew at this point the most important thing was getting the lighting right so we could add a glow in post-production.  In this image i'd wanted smoke, we tried talc in the background but with the use of a smoke machine it proved impossible. I decided I would just add it in afterwards...
