Dude, you just taught me how to do this within 10 minutes and saved me from an avalanche of aggravation!! Thank you so much!!

[@miguelfelix9775]

I believe, anyone thinking of buying soft boxes, should watch this video. I've seen UNFAIR reviews on products, that probably people, just don't know how to set up.
thanks for the instructions.

[@peterblyth5500]

Excellent instruction, thank you.

Nice video , through explanation of the entire process. Thank you .

Thank you so much this video, it was extremely helpful in assembling and dis-assembling my soft box which the other channels didn’t demonstrate. I’m sure it will get faster in time as I will be setting up and breaking down twice a week.

Thanks for this video. It's those small little fine tunings that make life easier. I have always loathed this part of the set up. Thanks for making my life just that little bit easier :)

[@InterfitPhotographicLtd]

Dayum. I was wondering why I couldn’t put the blanket things around my lights. It didn’t come with that circular metal thing to put the rods in. Can you give me a link to Amazon cause I don’t want to buy the wrong one so annoying we’re all ready for filming and we can’t use the Interfitsheets around the lights.

Thank you, I wish I found this video a few years ago. Today, I was puzzling over my umbrella softbox. The video didn't address my convern, it's not obvious where the flash goes. No hole in front, none at the back.
I knew there's slot at the bottom (it zips shut),, while watching this I realised, the light stand goes through the slot.

I’m worried about the breaking down of the box! How to do that? I just got a godox sl200ii and the square soft box was already popped open. I can’t tell if I’m breaking it or not when trying to break it down. Help!

[@bogiginarr583]

Just bought my first studio light with joy,until I realize its a pain to set it up lol

[@InterfitPhotographicLtd]

Haha, unfortunately that's just the nature of traditional rod softboxes industry-wide. You're in luck though, because we actually have a solution with our new foldable-style softboxes here: www.interfitphoto.com/products/modifiers/foldable-softboxes/ - they just open and close like an umbrella with a built-in speedring!

[@Jennyruley]

How about taking down? Is there an easy way?

[@samchuks9299]

Thanks, please what size of soft box is this?

[@InterfitPhotographicLtd]

Hey Sam, there are several softboxes in this video - can you give us a timecode for the part of the video you are referring to?

[@maximummoefoe]

My softbox is wayyy different and I can’t get the light bulb in 😭
