Wow, it's really not the gear

Got my usual post from Scott Kelby on my facebook timeline to the latest guest blog gushing about how awesome it is, I like Kelby but he over eggs it sometimes. Anyway, clicked on it see what it was this time http://scottkelby.com/2015/its-gues...er/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter and was blown away. Turns out it really isn't the gear at all, such an imaginitive use of limited gear and space. Been given so many ideas and a new book I'm going to need to purchase, time for me to stop procrastinating.

Never encountered Nick Fanchers works before but definitely someone I'll be watching.

I'm probably weird, but I prefer the set-up shots.

I'm confused by the one with 3 gels, wouldn't the diffent coloured areas be in shadow and the rest of the wall a mixture of colours?

It confuses me a bit as well. As far as I can work out because he's using cyan magenta and yellow where all hit you get white light, where shadow no light then there's a slight variance in angles meaning you get some individual lights lighting some shadows with only that colour. Its on my list to try, think flickr will be full of that shot soon.
