Proposal for Small Product Assignment 1 & 2

Both Small product assignment 1 and 2 require taking photos of a small product or a set of small products, constructed in 2 ways:
•1• Deep edge photo of the product, then combine it with a background using photo of models.
•2• Create photo of the product along with the set / props design and lighting setup to make the product standout.

So I decide to do Fragrance for these both assignments.
I do a few research from a few fragrance photos for advertising.
I chose cK Obsession for references as both lighting and theme.

Here they are:

The theme and concept for this fragrance is very intimate and seduction. I love the emotional from the posing and lighting on the background.
My idea is taking photo of a unisex fragrance that is aim for both men & women so may be in the background there will be 2 models as well "getting friendly each other". I'll do both high key white background and dark background for the Assignment 1 background. For the product photo in Assignment 1, lighting is simple and the angle will be front on straight. The layout would look like something like this:

 

For the Assignment 2, I'd like to place the product on water as well and lighting scheme will be like this:

Workshop - Product lighting

Task:
Produce a square shot of a bottle of beer on any surface

And here is lighting diagram:

The idea for my lighting setup:
I wanted to create long shadow of other subject fall on the main subject that's why I put the zoom reflector on one head to create harsh and long shadow. To light up a bottle of beer, I thought I might want to put the key light on the back of the beer bottle so the light can go through the glass of the bottle and light up the beer inside. I used one softbox in front of the bottle, camera left, to fill in the front. Another head through zoom reflector aimed on the white background partition although it's not necessary because the angle is from above so I didn't take reading on the white background partition.
