Creating a new story

After a break of more than half a year I am again creating new stories in my studio.

The current story is about Audrey and her husband David: he brings her to a Club where he wants them to become members, because there are a few very influential people in that Club. 

I shot now pictures for 2 days.

And I noted that I can produce about 20 pictures with captions, text and callouts within 6 hours. This gives me now a time estimate for future projects.

This one so far is facing several technical difficulties:

• the head attachment of the guys is not functioning properly, the heads bounce around and often fall off. I will need to use BlueTac to keep them in place.
• The shoes on the girls' feet keep bouncing off. The feet are quite large, and even though I am already using the most relaxed shoes, they still often fall off or are even bounced off from the rubber feet.
• Neither of the dolls can stand alone. I try to put two dolls together which hold each other, giving stability. But they often fall. It took a while until I got a few shots of the standing dolls. Even more difficult are larger groups: I got one with 5 figures leaning on each other, and one of them leaning at the wall.

So far 42 pictures. And I hope I can produce more.

This is the studio setup, with the group of 5 figures standing while supporting each other. So far this is standing for 8 hours without falling.
