    This guy's channel is one of the best light resources on the internet. period. He never promotes just expensive gear it's all technique and options when budget is a concern (which it is 95% of the time in this business.)

    You were at 10k subs when you dropped this useful gem and here you are now sitting at 184k (deservedly so, might I add). Thanks for considering the filmmakers whose pockets are full of lint because they dropped all their $$ on cameras, lenses, lights, mics etc. and STILL keep needing to get an insane amount of production equipment

    Aside from the great value you bring in education, I'd say you surpassed 10K because of the vibe you bring. Its unlike anyone else i've found on yt.

    these kinds of videos are gold. i use a telescopic broomstick and two 2m x 2m photographic silks from amazon with clamps to produce the largest soft light i possibly can. i even use it during inside interview scenes in my commercial work. it's super easy to carry and super soft. but you do need a lot of light with it. like 2x aputure 120d or a 300d or comparable to get it to be like iso400 f2.8 from 2m away.

    Instead of sewing or adhering the fabric to the frame, hooks and eyelets are a great, cheap way to hold up the fabric while also leaving it removable!

      if it's too tight the fabric might break sooner than you expect. I think sawing some good and generous wide Velcro could make it easier to not go back and forth many times, then you tight a little more from whatever side you want.
      Great video, love DIY stuff, specially when it comes to cinamontography

      @@Dare2Share930 look up "fabric eyelet tool" or "eyelet pliers". Around the edges of the fabric, you punch holes and attach a metal grommet ring. After that, you can hang the fabric on hooks, such as shower curtain hooks.

    I made something really similar recently, but essentially did it in reverse (seemed simpler) Made the scrim sheet first, same method.. square and corners cut out, then stitched.. thanks mum! Then cut the pipe (in my case 28mm dowel and brass 90deg elbows.. don't judge :P it was free) it meant the seams were all perfectly neat and you could stretch the sheet to the right tension and then measure off the correct length of "pipe" to ensure it stayed that way.. either way same result!! :D
