Blade Runner Eyeball

[elliottdeem]

Hi James & Roger,

I’ve always wondered how you achieved this image. Theres no specular highlight or reflections to speak of in a marco eyeball shot?

I could speculate on how I think it’s done but it would be best to hear it from the horses mouth. Thanks in advance.

P.s. First post, Love the site and the podcast.

That was a bit of a cheat as we removed the reflection. I used a large bounce and it just crept into the top of the eye.
