Our Visit
Today I went to the 'Cool Captures' photo studio, which is famous for its cool concepts.
As soon as you go in, you can feel the cool capture's unique internal mood. The props everywhere are so pretty and there is an interior photo zone that feels like an old American school, so I was excited. I'll have to take a lot of pictures here later.
First of all, if I show you the reservation details, please guide me. First, write down your personal information on the kitsch post-it. The editor is going to rent a costume and film it today. The cost of renting the clothes is 10,000 won, and you can pay on-site. I think it's better because it's much more diverse and convenient than bringing your clothes.
Going into the dressing roomShirt, school uniform skirt, knitwear, Santa suit, etcThere are so many different outfits. I made a reservation in advance, so it was easy to choose clothes because people did not overlap at the same time.
There are many high-teen school uniforms that you don't usually encounter neckties and skirts. I decided to shoot a high-teen concept, so I choose my school uniform first.
Later on in the Christmas season, I want to try Santa Claus costume. If you're having a hard time with Cody, you can refer to the picture on the wall.
If you're done choosing your clothes, fix your hair and makeup in the pouch room before you take a picture. It's easy to prepare because there's nothing without hair ties, combs, curling iron, and eyelash curlers.
This is a room where we shoot a high-teen concept. I think the sky blue background will go well with the school uniform. You are free to choose the background.
There are various props that stand out when you go in. From the old headsets to phones, balls, candy, there are a lot of cute props that go with the high-teen concept. The editor liked the headset, so he decided to wear it and film it. You can take all the props you want, not just one.
The shooting is done by yourself. You can use props for 15 minutes and take pictures of your own poses without a limit. At first, I thought 15 minutes would be short, but it was enough time to take more pictures than I thought. The important point is that you have to look at the camera, not the screen, to come out in front and take a picture when you press the remote control once.
If you can't think of a pose, you can refer to the high-teen concept pose in front of you. At first, I was awkward, so I just took pictures, but as I go back, I actively use props and my pose becomes more natural.
After 15 minutes, the timer goes off and now you go outside and choose the picture you took. The editor decided to shoot 1 high teen and 1 film with basic - 1 cut. So I'm going to choose 1 picture from the high-teen picture. You're given 10 minutes to choose, but it was hard to choose because everything came out well. It's too bad to choose one? If you want to have the rest of the original files, you can add them because if you pay 30,000 won on-site, you will be provided with all the photos.
Next, I'm going to take a film photo. Film photos can also be taken by choosing various concepts and backgrounds that you want. Go back to the powder room and fix your hair and makeup.
Films are divided into room B and C types by background If you want a colorful and cute background, there are many in Room B and the atmospheric silk atmosphere is in Room C where curtains are available. Clean white background can be taken in any room.
There are also various props in the film room. You can use it freely, such as a cute rabbit fur hat and a headband.
After 15 minutes of self-photographing, choose a picture for 10 minutes.
Now, I've picked out all the photos, one for each of the high-teen and one for the film. While making the corrected version, you can choose a frame or artwork. High-teen artwork and film frames are provided as a service.
He corrected the picture he chose and put it in the artwork he chose, and it was so cute. They made an artwork the size of a name tag as a service, and I was really satisfied.
It's a completed high-teen photo and film photo. The atmosphere of the two of them is completely different, but each of them is so attractive that I think they both did well. And the boss is really talented. They make the picture fast and pretty.
When the correction is almost complete, I will discuss with the boss whether it is okay and if there is any place you want to fix it. The picture is complete. I really liked it because they corrected it well on their own.
Also, the picture that came out makes a pretty box and puts it inside, and it's a series of emotions. Usually, they put it in plastic, but the details are amazing.
Once you've received the photos, it's your turn to use the photo spot at the entrance.
The composition consists of 1 4*6 print, 1 polaroid, and 1 frame photo. Six ID photos can be additionally drawn for 5,000 won, so I applied for this, too.
The corrected file is provided by airdrop for iPhones and by e-mail for other models.
You can take selfies and photos in the photo zone of the American school you put on as soon as you came in. It would have felt better if I took it with my school uniform on.
Personally, I've been to many photo studios, but it was the best place to edit them. I really recommend Cool Captures!
