So i decided to have a go at making some silhouettes today. Using a spotlight and some boxes, i was able to start experimenting with different shapes and silhouettes. I've selected a few of the better shapes, and i'm going to gather some more boxes and objects tomorrow so i can continue with this process...
As you can see, the setup isn't too high-tech either...
Exciting - but don't be too controlling or precious; gather together any old crap and if it makes a striking silhouette, bank it! You could now simply take these images into Photoshop, and using the levels, turn them into punchy, black on white images - quick and dirty, Ethan, quick and dirty!
