Couldn't afford to break a newer TV so the old one had to do;)
I had a white board exactly behind the TV so it would look more real.
Than i used three lamps.
1 on the left and 1 on the right side.
than 1 soft lamp infront of me above the tv.

A mean special effect with great lighting. This is one of those efforts that meet the challenge and then rises above to deliver that extra surprise. Very well executed. Bumping up.

i don't know anything about portraiture, so i'm using your image as a guinnea pig as to what i think i would or wouldn't do in this situation, as well as what i notice and get out of your image.
clever image, to say the least. glad to see it was validated. while it is an interesting presentation, it seems as though it could be cropped a bit tighter. good luck, and thanks for giving me some new ideas!
Nice idea. Execution is a bit loose though. The set-up of TV really could be more convincing and post processing could have solved the join of the arm. I'd have come in closer and lost the edges of the table.
Very ingenious and well done... Definitely one of my favorites so far. I do believe I will be back to bump this one up once I have completed reviewing all of these photographs.
I look forward to hearing how this was done! And like I've said in my comments on a few other shots, there is such wit roaming these parts, my god! This does not disappoint. It's an excellent shot. How could I not give it a ten?
definitely a cool photo and i can't wait to find out how you did it. I only wish the table were more centered or cropped a little on the left so the edge isn't showing. But that's minor. Excellent creativity.
