Faça você mesmo: criação de equipamentos e acessórios de iluminação com materiais alternativos para a atividade fotográfica

Abstract

This work aimed to produce a manual on how to make equipment and photographic accessories focused on lighting using alternative and economical materials, serving as a support material for beginners in photography. Therefore, research was done on techniques and equipment, especially related to lighting. First, a theoretical research was carried out on accessories and equipment used in photographic lighting. Next, we looked at options for how to create these objects manually, in a simple and economi-cally viable way. Afterwards, the manual alternatives generation phase was started. Once the definitions regarding layout and format were completed, the project was ac-complished through software such as CorelDraw, Illustrator and Photoshop. The final result of the project is a manual with general explanations on each proposed equip-ment, accompanied by the step-by-step for the creation of the same, including the ap-proximate cost for the acquisition of each bill of materials.
