Il palloncino conta per una stanza, non per una fotografia

Pastel balloon arch in a bright room

Gli scatti di styling utilizzano tre volte ciò di cui ha bisogno una stanza reale. Ecco il numero onesto per una determinata altezza del soffitto. .

A styling photograph is built for one camera position. The arch is dense because it has to fill a frame, and the frame is two metres wide. A real room is looked at from everywhere, and density that reads as lush in a photograph reads as crowded when you are standing under it.

For a standard two-and-a-half metre ceiling, an arch over a three-metre doorway wants around sixty balloons, not the hundred and eighty a styling shot would use. Go higher and the count rises with the visible area, not with the height: a four-metre ceiling needs perhaps ninety for the same doorway.

The other saving is in the clusters nobody sees. Anything below waist height behind a table is spent for no return.
