What is Unit Still Photography?

Also known as Set photography, the craft involves capturing behind-the-scenes images of film and TV sets for use in marketing and publicity. These photos highlight key moments, characters, and the atmosphere, offering a glimpse into the filmmaking process.

Through collaboration with key departments, you’ll work towards ensuring your stills align with the project’s visual tone and deliver what is required. Your work plays a vital role in how films are marketed and remembered, appearing in everything from movie posters to promotional materials.

I took Beth's on-class as we were coming out of the covid pandemic. As a photojournalist, I come from the background of shooting sports, concerts, and street photography. I was interested in learning how to maneuver as a unit still photographer. Beth gave me valuable information about how to pursue local 600, she also broke down her journey and how it related to mine. I walked away with new knowledge and felt more confident about shooting stills on set.

The great thing about Beth's 3 month goal setting workshop is that you commit yourself to being accountable to other artists for a specific amount of time. Having that structure helps my productivity. This was more than just a workshop on learning about the world of unit still photography. Seeing Beth finish her portrait series “Hollywood On The Spectrum” during the time she was teaching us was really encouraging and helped me develop projects that I had been brainstorming for a while. Beth was also generous with her one-on-one time and her honest feedback helped me think more critically about the quality of an image and be more selective in choosing what work to show.
