Pretty cool post on f-stoppers:

Studio Photos Taken for the Release of “The Dark Knight” | Fstoppers

I'm actually surprised they don't look better. You can see that the camera's sensor had dust on it. The lighting is 'meh'. I guess that is all the studio really needed since the images were never meant to stand on their own.

I guess they dont need to be that good as with all the editing that is going to happen it will fix up the dust issues (maybe). You can see the difference with the last image.

How'd you like to be a Hollywood photographer?

Thank you for sharing that is awesome!

Couldnt help myself, had to have a go of post processing

The images are not longer there - There's a big Cease & Desist image instead. Shame, I'd have liked to have seen them!

haha, funny that WB made them take the pics down.

Thanks Scott!

I was quite surprised at the relatively basic lighting set up for such a high brow shoot. There were even a few in there where I thought I could do better! I guess they would have been used in fairly dark scenes, but even so, there's not much there that anyone on this forum with 2 or 3 strobes couldn't accomplish themselves. It's quite reassuring, actually!
