or you could go to the hardware store an buy the insolation board that has the shiny back. it works much better cos you dont get little artifacts in the light like the alluminum foil!
-
I was just wondering, what would you need the light reflectors for? is it so that your videos wont be dark?
-
you look like tay zonday in the thumbnail
-
does that really work? honestly?
-
Try using a polystyrene board... it works wonders...
-
just buy them , and if you dont have the money , theres an How-to episode on Threadbanger

A white piece of bristol board glued to a sheet of cardboard works wonders as well. Anything thats white and semi-sturdy works best. I fond aluminum gives off too much of a light dropoff. When using white fabric/paper/etc you get a natural diffusion in the light being reflected

just buy one, you can get a decent one made of 100% crushable cotton for like 40 bucks. :P

now THAT'S a useful tip, if you've seen my latest vid (and I know you have, as you already looked at it for feedback on shooting angles) you'll notice that one angle was usually really dark, and the other one was really light.
now i might get them all the same, or at least closer ^.^

Jernov, You should test this technique while shooting a video response to one of Indy Mogul's vids...eh? What do you think?
