Is it possible to make a shadow a different color straight out of the camera (while working in a studio)? It seems that you would need to use PS for that. Or, am I wrong? Thanks!

It depends on what you are trying to do. If you shine a light through a blue bottle it will often leave a blue shadow.

| Somewhat depends on what you want to happen to the highlights. You can try setting the White Balance to something other than the actual conditions -- that should introduce a color-cast. |

You can gel lights.
I guess it all depends on what you're doing. |

Just wondering, because I saw a challenge entry with multiple different colored shadows, and wondered how they did it. Part of it was glass, but part of it was solid, so just wondering! Thanks!

it is quite easy to do this straight out of the camera. Long exposure is one way with coloured lighting or simultaneous coloured lighting on one subject/object.

The illusion is that the white light is normal sunlight of full spectrun lamp light. What you are seeing is the buildup of 3 seperate flashes with colored filters on them, or 3 flashes with a filter over the lens, which combine to make white where all 3 hit. Where only 2 hit you get CYM and where only 1 hits you get RGB. Try playing with it its lots of fun. I did this for the wheels challenge with the gel over the flash technique on a long exposure.

Maybe I am being thick skulled, but I am not sure what you mean. I have not worked with flashes much yet, maybe someone has a web site or book that I can go to to learn more? Or, a more detailed explanation. Thanks for your help!
