    I have a bunch of these cheap soft boxes, didn’t even think of lighting from above that way for product b-roll. Thanks for the tips! Will make use of this in my next camera video.

    As I am new in this field and I have low budget, this video was super useful to get some ideas (even 6 years down in the line). Funny enough, one of the family member just gave me a similar softbox with remote control operated LED bulb and was wondering how can I adopt it for b-roll stuff.

    Got my last part, the bulb, came about an hour ago and and I've already taken a rough few pics as I need to go to work soon. And let me tell you Caleb, this is the most amazing setup you've give us beginners/newbs. It is absolutely amazing. Even on the quick shots I've already done, I can see the potential. With a good camera, oh man ... I'm in heaven. This weekend I'll have a some better quality shots to use on my own website. The only thing I regret, is that I live in Japan and wasn't able to use your links. Anyway, many, many thanks from a big fan!! This is truly an epic DIY idea!!

    Hey!
    Do you think it's possible to have two ot thees setup's, one on each side. so it becomes a big softbox? Right now i am shooting small products in a square box with lights on the side. I just would like to replace itso i can shoot bigger items also. But maybe i should have both in the end! what you think?
    Great vid by the way!

    Your videos help a lot in the field and studio. For instance, your video on how to light people with glasses helps me a lot! Keep making videos like these, you inspire us to think frugally creative! Yesterday I tried a shot with a 24W LED bulb fitted on my bedside reading lamp. I used two tissue papers as diffuser, and rubber band to hold them to the head of the lamp. This afternoon I tried another shot with 2 LED 23W bulbs for lighting. They aren't professional, but they did the job pretty well, and they cost me just about $15-20 in Indian money.
    Since you make documentaries as well, could you please share with us about how you light your subjects while you're interviewing them at their place. How would you suggest to go about it as a one man documentary filmmaker?

  • @Typix
    @Typix 6 лет назад +2

    How do you get a such dark background ?
    Because I tried it but even if my background is black, on the video we clearly see the black background lighten up and doesn’t create this sort of infinite black background.
    I have the same softbox, the same LED light bulb, and I use either my iPhone 7 and my Lumix G85 to film, so I tried different settings but I can't darken the background without darkening the object too so we don't see the object anymore.
    I really would like to have this sort of infinite black in the background.
    Any tips ?

    • @ohmyguard99
      @ohmyguard99 5 лет назад +1

      If I had to guess, I'd say the black background is much further from the light source than it appears and thus the light isn't bouncing off of it as much. From my experience, you only get that true infinite black when there's enough space for the light to naturally fall off and not bounce off anything.

    Looks gorgeous but are you using a grey or a black backdrop? In the beginning of the video it's grey but by the time you're ready to shoot it's black. Is this because the room is completely dark? I tried that but I'm still getting a grey backdrop.
