@Enited just type in "cowboy studio ql 1000" it's pretty much the same thing but I wouldn't get it. It's hard to put together and the build quality isn't that great.
Hey Mark, great review. What would you recommend for a whole video studio kit. I see this is a good, inexpensive light kit. What kind of Camera, Mic, Green-screen kit, and video editing software would you recommend? I have some stuff but not sure I am making the quality of videos I see in this review. Would appreciate your recommendations. Thanks in advance.
I bought this kit and as soon as I plugged them in the bulbs stopped working in about five minutes. They don't look burnt at all, I heard a click and then nothing, the light fan is still running just no light. I'm concerned that will just happen again if I get more bulbs, any ideas what this could be? Now I have my studio ready to shoot video but no lights.

I brought this camera and it broke with little use. The reason was I brought it from an online company. Provisual Direct - don't buy from these people -
I payed 275 pounds for a five year warranty which was a waste of paper. They refused to fix it, even when I sent it to them - they sent it back the same day in a different smaller box to save themselves money. Just a warning in case anyone thinks of going to those people. Thank you
What are the lights that they usually use for close ups in front of the green screen? And you can usually see the light rays in the singers eyes, I know I sound proper retarded, but they look like umbrella lights or sumfin :S
@razrox Yes they are great! Everything is professional quality and top notch. The lights get a little warm though..that's the only drawback i can think of. I shoot photography as well so the fan noise doesn't bother me. As for quality of light, it is excellent. I highly recommend.
@razrox i would say about a 2 or 2.5... its really not too bad unless you are going to have complete silence in your video... then it may pick up.. but its not awful
Would love to actually hear the noise level of the fans, but there is a song blasting throughout that entire section of the video...kind of missing the point of showing the comparison of fan vs. no fan.
Shame on you, when you were holding the lamps you touched them with your finger, that's a big no no never touch the glass on those types of bulbs they can pop after touching from the oils in your skin.. Now i know you were holding them to show people the bulbs but should have reminded people NEVER TOUCH bulbs. other then that great video as always.
I have this 3 peice lightkit and it's been great. However, they do blind the talent and I noticed if you try to turn them down it changes the color from white to more of an orange. The vendor says you can purchase 500watt or 750 watt so this doesn't happen. I worried about the fan noise too but mic'd up the talent and we never heard it but we also used adobe soundbooth to clean up the audio.
I have the QL-1000 on my long list of stuff I use and they are very durible, I bought mind from Ebay and I've had it for about a year and some change now...Really comes in handy!
hey im new so can u plz plz check out my channel copy and paste this and watch my first vid i put on and PPPLLZZ subscrib when u get there and comment PLZ
Great lights, but the fan noise is actually pretty bad. Hard to use these and get really good audio for an interview. Shame really, as otherwise they are terrific lights. (Check out Mark's other video where he shows you how to disconnect the fan - oops!)
Mark, a little off product, but please, tell me you know of a CHEAP alternative to "litepanels". These are led light panels, and for a 1ft by 1ft they are at least 1,500.00 USD. I would love one, but lack the horrendous amount of money. Do you have any plans or know of any cheap alternatives? Thanks
thanks again for that video. i bought that kid at tubetape. they shipped it 11'000km and here it is. :-) look & feel is very professional. the fans are louder than i thought (tipple QL-1000), but no problem because i use them for photography or high-speed-filming w/o audio only. but dang, 3000Watt are brighter as the sun (ok almost) and my room is getting hot in seconds. haha.
hay mark i need a video edit software to use with my laptop amd turion[tm]64x2 mobile techology tl-60 2.00GHZ 894mb or ram/ 32bit operating system ati-radeon x1200 graphics
Mark, I went ahead and bought this light kit from tubetape. It came today and I love it, BUT... how do you protect the bulbs when you store it in the bag?? It didn't come with instructions and I can't find anything that will keep the bulbs safe. THANKS!
It was years ago, but I wanna say like 250 or 300. I "disliked" this review just now because the lights aren't nearly as silent as Mark claims. Which is why he ended up making a whole other video on how to make an on off switch for the motor/fan. I was a sucker for this video, and am finding there are much better lights for the money. I am very unhappy with the extremely yellow light that the bulbs produce as well. If anyone has any tips on that, hit me up! Gels? Bulbs that fit?
Mark i am buying this for my birthday and i made a video called better lighting for chroma key but i did not show the part where you light the subject so is it OK if i make another review on 2 QL-1000 soft box light kit.
This is what video you get when you click on the video box on the right hand... Well, my right, your left... Looking for the contest deadline! Just grabbed a Green Screen a few days ago! Check out the practice vids! See the progress in real time!
hi mark im currently filming a skateboard dvd which has a lot of night filming , im using a generater and lights plus an ultra wide fisheye but having trouble getting a crisp picture is there any tips you could give me , feel free to check out my footage , peace :) ps great videos by the way very clear and easy to understand
Excuse the butt-in, but I've used Cinescore a fair amount. It's a great program when it's used to its capacity, and uses keyframe-like control for changing style. It seems geared the more electronic music styles, as I have yet to find a really good symphonic theme pack. But the control you get over the mood and intensity of the songs is incredible. Blows SonicFire Pro out of the water. For royalty-free generation, I don't think there's anything better on the market.
I think the main reason I have not used Cinescore is because they do not have that many theme packs. I like sonicfire because there are more music packs. Its also the only one that did not sound midi-like. You should look at Richard Bands packs for great symphonic stuff. It rocks and they are making all the old one layered too.
Hey Mark, I thought I saw a video you posted not long ago about how to MAKE a soft box light kit but now I cant find it. Was that ever on here or was it my imagination? :)
I had a video up a long time ago about lighting but I removed it about a half a year ago. The only video I have now about building a light kit is on my DVD called lighting made simple
I was thinking about buying two sets but i have a question about the lights...
What brand are they?
are there any barn doors that comes with the lights?
Can i buy barn doors for these lights?
& why do Soccer Moms buy pro SLR still cameras when they are never going to use the manual features and just point and shoot with the thing if for like $200 they can buy a like 9MP point and shoot camera that dose exactly that but is about $1300 to $500 cheaper?
no kidding about the lighting issue. my 3ccd can be a real whiner in low light and contrast sometimes is an issue when using harsh halogen spotlighting. who wants to spend time digitally correcting. this kit looks great
I think most of the cameras out there are with light..lol I heard that the sony Z7u and EX1 work great in 1 lux. It would be awesome for weddings and events
Hey markapsolon. I am starting to make videos with sweet effects and stuff and i had a question for a fellow video maker. What video editing program do you use? How much is it? if you could messasge me or something that would be greta. otherwise its ok.
Would you love them so much if you hadn't got them for free? What if you gave them a bad review... would the company send you any more products? Just thought I'd raise some editorial questions :)
We actually send our stuff to Mark to see if the community would like it. We value his opinon good or bad. His biggest worry here was the fan. We wanted him to test it for himself.
I couldn't pull a good key if i was friend's with the keymaster from Matrix Reloaded . I'm using two 1000 watt worklights , a 250 watt backlight , and a 600 watt worklight for the key ( no fill , cause i want one side to be dark ) . Everything is fine until i chroma key the footage , then it's all pixelated . How much of an impact will the processing power of the computer make . I think i'm stumbling at the point of render , it becomes all pixelated . JV
Sony Vegas 7 pro . I'm shooting with a Samsung SC-D363 , a Dinosaur no doubt , so that's probably not helping either . I'm using your midrange greenscreen , the plastic one . JV
If you like my on-line free tutorials you will love my training DVD's. I cover so much more material than I could in a short on-line video. Learn how to fix problems with your chroma-key, How to build a cheap light kit, How to light for interviews, How to use your camcorder like a professional, etc etc etc!

This seems like a really awesome kit, I wish I had it. But being a student, I'm gonna have to keep making videos guerilla style for a little while longer haha.
dangit Mark you just have to show off with your awesome intro videos dont cha lol ;d
i have a question about lighting, what do you use for a dark scene when you don't want too much but need to shop the face at least? oh wait i think you just talked about it on dimming the light but i need a smaller one.
where do you get your music from? you have a few videos on your backgrounds, but i have enough of those...its the royalty-free background music i'm lookin to buy
I actually had an issue with these lights from tube tape..... after about 1 hour continuous lighting the white cloth thing inside burned and started to smoke!!! then i bought another 1!!!
dude I never had an issue and I left them on at max for hours and i've been using them at lest four times a week since I shot this review with no problems at all. My power bill will reflect it next month..lol
They sent me the lights and i did a review. People want to know about a lot of equipment before they buy it. I'm working on get more things to review too
That's what I'm talking about! Mark, great video, informative and useful. Some of us don't have time to experiment or network with others "live" do to location, finances, etc. I hope venders send you more "stuff" to review. Very useful information...I can't say it enough. As a writer first, director, producer and Jack of all trades in V-videoland, I have no time to R & D. Zero budgets also add to being creative etc. But I am preaching to the choir. Kudos Grande. Later mate.

I'd really like to find a solution to this problem of mine :D
p.s. Do they work with photography aswell ? THANKS !

Hey mark!
I was thinking about buying two sets but i have a question about the lights...
What brand are they?
are there any barn doors that comes with the lights?
Can i buy barn doors for these lights?
& why do Soccer Moms buy pro SLR still cameras when they are never going to use the manual features and just point and shoot with the thing if for like $200 they can buy a like 9MP point and shoot camera that dose exactly that but is about $1300 to $500 cheaper?
Thanks Mark!

no kidding about the lighting issue. my 3ccd can be a real whiner in low light and contrast sometimes is an issue when using harsh halogen spotlighting. who wants to spend time digitally correcting. this kit looks great

I think most of the cameras out there are with light..lol I heard that the sony Z7u and EX1 work great in 1 lux. It would be awesome for weddings and events

Would you love them so much if you hadn't got them for free? What if you gave them a bad review... would the company send you any more products? Just thought I'd raise some editorial questions :)

lol they wanted my opinion on these lights before they started selling them. They are good if they were crap I would say :)
markapsolon 3 years ago
We actually send our stuff to Mark to see if the community would like it. We value his opinon good or bad. His biggest worry here was the fan. We wanted him to test it for himself.

I couldn't pull a good key if i was friend's with the keymaster from Matrix Reloaded . I'm using two 1000 watt worklights , a 250 watt backlight , and a 600 watt worklight for the key ( no fill , cause i want one side to be dark ) . Everything is fine until i chroma key the footage , then it's all pixelated . How much of an impact will the processing power of the computer make . I think i'm stumbling at the point of render , it becomes all pixelated . JV

what editor are you using ?
tubetape 3 years ago
Sony Vegas 7 pro . I'm shooting with a Samsung SC-D363 , a Dinosaur no doubt , so that's probably not helping either . I'm using your midrange greenscreen , the plastic one . JV

That's what I'm talking about! Mark, great video, informative and useful. Some of us don't have time to experiment or network with others "live" do to location, finances, etc. I hope venders send you more "stuff" to review. Very useful information...I can't say it enough. As a writer first, director, producer and Jack of all trades in V-videoland, I have no time to R & D. Zero budgets also add to being creative etc. But I am preaching to the choir. Kudos Grande.
