Star Carpet — walk the red carpet past the flashes.
Star Carpet sends a person down a red carpet toward the camera. The sample opens on a young man with short dark hair in a white shirt with rolled sleeves and dark trousers, part way along a carpet lined with photographers. As he walks closer, flashes go off on both sides and a wall of sparkling lights glows behind him.
The sample
What happens in the Star Carpet sample.
The first shot is wide: a young man with short dark hair, a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, dark trousers and a watch. He stands on a red carpet with crowds of photographers on both sides, their flashes bright against the dark. He walks forward in calm, even steps. Partway through, a glittering wall of pink and blue lights appears behind him. By the end he fills much of the frame from the waist up, with a slight smile.
His face, hair and clothes stay the same the whole way. The carpet and the photographers stay too, while the background behind him brightens with sparkling light. The framing gets tighter as he comes toward the camera, from a wide view down to a waist-up shot. As the sample starts with the man shown from head to thigh, standing upright, a photo that shows most of your body in a simple outfit is the closest match.
