Shooting this Cartethyia set really took quite a while to refine the details of the costume and props. The translucent gradient tulle material of the outer coat is very picky about lighting; to ensure a clear and transparent frame, the shoot was chosen in a high-ceilinged hall with a large area of natural light. The golden branch texture on the cape and the wavy cuts at the edges are the visual focus; when walking or posing, you must pay attention to the drape sense, and slightly adjusting the angle allows the color transition to be natural. The wig was chosen to be a light golden blonde, with a fine braided pigtail specially woven on the side, paired with dark blue small horns and white twigs on top of the head, so that the overall proportions wouldn't make it look top-heavy. In terms of makeup, bright blue colored contacts paired with pink smudging around the eyes, plus the black rhombus mark on the forehead, closely matched the character's designated temperament. The focus on the day of the shoot was mainly on physical display, because the combination of a short skirt and high-heeled sandals heavily relies on body movements; sitting lounging on the carpet or stepping on a ladder requires using core and leg strength to keep the lines smooth. The transparent spiral prop in hand looked very photogenic during the actual shoot, using the spiral arc to guide the line of sight and cooperating with arm stretching to enhance the dynamic feel of the frame. I feel that this time I managed to restore the detached, somewhat divine yet sharp characteristics of the original design. The shoot went quite smoothly overall, and the post-processing also tried to preserve the texture and light-and-shadow layers of the costume. I hope friends interested in this outfit can find some inspiration from it.
