Great video! So for someone that is on a budget which soft box would for most situations? So the smaller the soft box the harsher the light and the bigger the sb the less harsh it is?
very nicely done presentation to show the graphic on the wall with actual coverage sizes, and then the comparative photos of the talent (and pointing out her shadow on the wall). The grid on the softbox was only touched on briefly though. You show how it restricted light and provided the look of a "harder" light. Then you mentioned that it was more controllable, but no addtnl info. How is it more controllable? Why not just use a smaller softbox for the same effect?
@jkddaddy A smaller box has a larger area of coverage than a medium box with a grid. The grid cuts the area down that the box covers. Lighting a smaller area on set makes it easer to control what is being lit.
very helpfull..thx for sharing sir!

Nice slider at 1:04-1:06. Major lighting and video gear, good info in this video.

So much gear... yet such a crappy video. All I learned was not to watch your other stuff

Hum, did the film editor forgot to cut the (very) annoying music background from 0:11 to 3:33 ? Good piece of information though.
