Ever dance with the devil in the Pale Moonlight? with Jesse Feyereisen

"There are a lot of Batman movies to choose from these days, but my personal favorite will always be the ’89 Burton/Keaton/Nicholson version (that I grew up with)."

"Using this 6” Jack Nicholson 'Joker' figure (from Beast Kingdom), I set up a very simple scene with a clean black backdrop, an overhead Godox AD200 (with a snoot), and a pair of additional AD200s in strip boxes for fill. After spreading some smoke using a Ulanzi fog machine I began to snap some photos."

"For a little height control on my final capture, I grabbed my Platypod Handle along with my Platyball Elite Ballhead. The Handle allowed me to extend up for some alternate captures with a heightened perspective. The Elite allowed me to get a completely level capture (using the built in leveling system)."

"In post I ended up blending 2 separate smoke images and a blank plate (no smoke) together in Photoshop. After that I processed, color graded, and cropped the final shot in Lightroom."
