Thank you wfs. I usually use water. Sometimes I drop something small in water to cause a splash. Ice too is beautiful when well lit. I am definitely going to try some of your ideas. Thank you. I love the contents on wfs... From Cameroon, Africa

[@WeddingFilmSchool]

Thanks guru bobby.. I will sure use this tips next next month..

[@WeddingFilmSchool]

Awesome glad to hear it and excited to see what you do with it!

[@riisparklover]

Super valuable Bobby imma use this tomorrow

[@WeddingFilmSchool]

Sick I wanna see what you come up with! When you finish the film submit it for a review!

[@lemayfilms4214]

Great tips!! Never thought of using my phone light.

[@WeddingFilmSchool]

Other lights can do the trick too but one less thing for me to carry around! Though the small RGB tube lights are intriguing too! - Bobby

[@ToddBangz]

Hello. Great video. Quick question... at 5:32 viewing of the example of moving the prism around... are your lights stationary while you rotate the prism or are you rotating the prism and moving the light at the same time? Great video by the way!! :)

[@WeddingFilmSchool]

If I'm moving the prism my light is generally stable. There are times where I have a second shooter or assistant help me out and both might be moving but that is rare honestly - Bobby

[@JWallaceDesignsLLC]

what app on your phone did you use to record this video? It came out really good!!

[@WeddingFilmSchool]

🤔

[@kamonster2307]

Basic

[@MattRandallProductions]

Super basic

[@complexgrafix]

That's not the same prism

The one in the BTS shots is the one I hold up on camera. The one I link is another one I use but I cracked mine recently.
