so i have my 1st proper paying event on Sunday and need any advise

it is a barman event/competition
they compete in a few different events:
perfect cocktails
speed pouring
and flair (juggling bottles etc)

will be taking a few action shots of the mixing, pouring and flair
but the main focus is on the finished product
i will be shooting them on a seemless bright white background, need advice for this, lighting tips/diagrams etc

thanks


e: who here can/would help me setting up a website in the next month?

i dont actually, i have been there though
why you need this? gotta keep it as compact as possible

forgot to add, as soon as the drinks have been poured, they will come to me, i will hav a short time to take a couple pics and then they go on to the judges for taste test etc

Getting in my way you mean. I just want to get the fucking thing over with so I can actually get a job and have free time on the weekends. Plus I've got a load of projects I want to work on but I don't have the time.

I'll be more than happy to point you in the right direction.

Any idea what kind of site you're looking for, and what features you'd want it to have?

You should be helping me help him set up a website, imo.

Kills two birds with one stone, since I am doing that learning thing.
