Lets give a round of applause also to the family of Gavin for providing us these incredible pan shots , b rolls etc. It is my dream to talk live with the Master Gavin :)
Thank you, Gavin for this tutorial. It's amazing what you can accomplish in a small studio. Sofie just takes it to the next level! Hats off to you both!
For years....I've used every modifier there is, except a (dedicated) strip. I LEARNED ALOT watching this video.... that this is a very powerful tool capable of a VARIETY of "looks". Seems to me that it should be a standard kit item; I know I'll be getting one. Thx Gavin!
All the photos are simply gorgeous and interesting decisions to use stripbox. I love that you go into detail about your thoughts on the lighting solutions and the model. Greetings from Russia :)
Great video as always. I bought 2 strip boxes last year and have used them a lot ... but I do think the grid is essential I often use a strip box as a low horizontal active fill with a beauty dish as the key (saves buying one of those large reflector things).
Just awesome. I love watching Gavin but this one is simply awesome. Love the strip box ideas. Will be fun to try I think as I have both of those sizes! Thanks Gavin, you always have great content
Wow. I wish I had a studio I could play like this to see the results. But when you are using your hard earned cash for a couple of hours I tend to do what I know and get the shots taken. Dead jealous of your space.
Gavin (and team), this is such great content and I hope you have more to share. The greatest takeaway from these is we can be more creative when we bend, and if needed break, the rules. I will definitely see my strip boxes in a different light (pun intended).
Hi Gavin, thanks for sharing such awesome tips on how to use stripbox in such creative manner. This has really inspired me to take my works to next level.
Hello Gavin, another great video with lots of great information. Always learn something new from you! All the best from the Ottawa Valley (Ontario, Canada)!
Strip light, soft box, v-flat, silk etc, its all the same thing with very subtle differences. If you know what you are doing you can make any one look like any of the others. Skill and experience will out shine 'tools' every time. The right tool makes it easier, which is not to say it can't be done "the hard way". Being a good photographer is about being adaptable and inventive. Knowing a little about physics, how light behaves with good problem solving abilities differentiates the good from the bad photographer.
from now on we shall call you "light Master Hoey" , amazing job Mr Gavin . quick question, where do you get the music for your videos, I really enjoy it.
Hey , i dont see anyone on youtube more likely to do a comparison review then u can do it, its a bout the continous hi powered rgb cob lights,i mean the hi powered ones,like the one from aputure 300,colbor 220, trolifo 180 and the godox 300 , aplicable in studio lighting with softboxes,direct light,used combined with flash,used with gobos and other things,it whold be a great video from a great creator
Great video always Gavin!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Quick question, I just ordered the Glow 12x36 Stripbox. When you are using this do you use it with the beauty dish insert or not? Thank you in advance.
great video! ive got some Glo strip lights and they are the CATS MEOW for use. i just havent had much use for them. do you do any internships? id LOVE to get some hands on training with you. absolutely one of the best on YT in terms of content and explaining how to do things.
And if you got a couple of these strippers with a moderately powerful strobe/speedlight in them, just place them next to each other into a large softbox, so your 1:4 becomes 2:4 or 3:4. That's easier than trying to stuff more than one flash in a large box. They also work well as the bottom version in clamshell lighting.
Thanks Gavin and Sofie. A great demonstration. I have a question about these Glow strip boxes - I had bought a 1 X 3 Glow strip box a few months back, and when I attempted to use it, the wire frame inside the strip box crossed over the modeling light area too close to the modeling light socket for the incandescent modeling light bulb to fit into the bulb socket. I could only use this Glow strip box by removing the modeling light bulb, so I ended up sending the strip box back to Adorama because of this. Has this been corrected in these new Glow strip boxes, or is there now a short LED or other replacement modeling light bulb for use in my Godox SK300 and 400 strobes? I would still like to have a 1 X 3' strip box with Bowens mount, but I'm not finding one available, other than the Glow.
I can't help shed any light on a replacement bulb Charley (see what I did there 😉) but Glow do two other 1x3 Stripboxes which would work in your case. If speed of set-up is your goal then the Glow ParaSnap 12x36" www.adorama.com/glsbps1236.html is what you want. If time isn't an issue but price is then the Glow Series III www.adorama.com/fpsb12363.html is a timeless classic.

Someone give this guy a medal! These have been by far the most helpful videos I've found for learning about portrait photography.
Hope to see another fantastic class by Gavin at future date. Great teacher.
Can't tell how much you've enhanced my work. Thank you kindly.
I’ve learned more from your content than any other. You make it fun,entertaining and easy to understand 👌👌
Great styling with red dress and red background. The diagonal set-up looked super, well done !
Thanks Alan. I wasn't sure that was going to work and now I wish I'd taken some more images... ah well, there's always next time.
Thank you Gavin for always providing us with such a wealth of useful information!
Great Job Gavin. Strip boxes are easily one of my favorite light shapers, and these Glow softboxes are my all-time favorite softboxes.
Mate, your fun to watch. I get to learn a lot. Thank you.
I have the glow 10x24 inch. And its my favorite! Makes a phenomenal hair light. Super portable if necessary.
Thank you, Gavin for this tutorial. It's amazing what you can accomplish in a small studio. Sofie just takes it to the next level! Hats off to you both!
best video I've ever seen on stripboxes
Very creative!!! Can't wait to get a model and give this a go.😊
Great tip to start with a wide photo to see where the light is. Thanks for the tip and the video.
Thanks Jim. It's little tips like that which make Adorama TV so invaluable 😁

How do you keep being so creative after all this time? Amazing...
Amazing, I always learn something new from Gavin and his charmy way of teaching. Thank you a lot!
Glad I've been of help 👍
Thanks for this. I've always just used my strip boxes to provide rim light. But this gives some good ideas to use them more creatively.
Thank you for another great show. I have two strip boxes and Iam certainly going to give the last part a try.
Hello Gavin, another great video with lots of great information. Always learn something new from you!
All the best from the Ottawa Valley (Ontario, Canada)!

Really cool idea to put the strip box behind the model for the white rectangle line.
Great video always Gavin!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Quick question, I just ordered the Glow 12x36 Stripbox. When you are using this do you use it with the beauty dish insert or not? Thank you in advance.
great tutorial
Amazing👍
Great ideas!... Thank you!
Thanks for the ideas. I have two of the 16x48.
Perfect, I hope this helped 😊
Do you usually do double diffused with the metal disk? Thank you! You’re a big help
Double diffuser, yes. Metal disk, no.
You’ve got me craving a strip box now!!
I'm looking forward to using my new strip lights on a fitness model shoot
great video! ive got some Glo strip lights and they are the CATS MEOW for use. i just havent had much use for them. do you do any internships? id LOVE to get some hands on training with you. absolutely one of the best on YT in terms of content and explaining how to do things.
Great video and right on time. I was just saying i needed to do more with my strip boxes.
I made this just for you James 😉
Cant we share too😂

Now I have some ideas for my next shoot
Micro 4/3 om1 love it
What do you think about using the 12x36 strip box as a hair light on an over head boom?
Hey, are you turning off the ceiling lights in your studio when you took these pictures?
Great!
Great tips nice
Thanks galven its great

Sophie should be in SCUBA gear for that diagonal stripe one!
Can you get the lights in the uk or is it just American sits?
Thanks Gavin and Sofie. A great demonstration.

Now I have something to do with my 4' florescents and barn doors
I was shocked to hear Sophie has a dark side! She looks so sweet. :)
Sophie is a dark horse 😉
I have purchased two of them. I’m about to be up all night.
