Why doesn't the Arnold show promoter
« on: February 27, 2017, 07:11:08 PM »
fix the lights in that show to make the competitors look as amazing as possible?  We see all these Kamali's kitchen and Anabolic Chicken threads with amazing lighting leading to pics of what look like amazing physiques far beyond what we normally see.  There is that one pro show in Europe from like 1996 where the competitors looked incredible also in large part due to great lighting.

Couldn't some experimentation in lighting recreate this effect?  If so, why wouldn't a show promoter try to do it and catapult his show to the top?

Your first mistake was thinking that promoters of bodybuilding gave enough of a shit and were somehow competent.

There is a reason bodybuilding used to be on ESPN and now is not. The "sport" today is not even something Arnold himself is proud of anymore.

I always hear about flex being the all time greatest at the 98 arnold, yet the only pics ive EVER seen of that show everybody looks blue/purple like theyre in a nightclub lobby.

Best lighting has always been the Ironman when mike neavuex (sp?) designed it. Let photographers do thenlighting (except the pervert rob simms... Or alex ardenti, then everybody will look like a lobster)
