This video produced for us by the excellent Gavin Hoey shows how to use a 3 light setup in a coventional 3 point lighting setup he also shows how to light a white background. Although this is for video lighting this would still apply to still photography and these lights are strong enough for portrait photography.

  • please tell me what is the name of that mini portable white background used in this video?

    i cant find something like this anywhere

  • @SoeaOu If you ggogle this you should be able to find it - smick Black White Popup 150 x 200cm

  • please, can you tell me what's the name of this kit because I wanna buy it ?

  • @al3ndlib If you look in the description there is a direct link to it but we only sell in Europe.

  • Great tutorial! - I am considering buying this lighting kit with the three soft boxes. I am concerned that there is no hard light capabilities of this kit. Do you find that you need to buy another light for situations where you want a strong hard light with a narrow stream?

  • @Coogenius They are soft lights so if you want to produce hard lighting effects then you would need another type of light.

  • Fantastic video. Well made, and to the point. You are a very informative, clear, concise, talented teacher. Keep up the great work. Thanks to you, I just bought the three point lighting kit you suggested.

  • What type of lighting is better for the camera. Tungsten or Florescent?

  • Thank you! I bought a 3 light set like this and was trying to get the Noir look. Now I know how. Great video!

  • Oh, I've found it, it's on the smick web site, thanks again man, you explained it and demonstrated it perfectly.. I wish you all the success in the world :)

  • One question, what the piece of equipment you use for the background? it looks so easy to flip round and change from black to white, where did you get it? Thanks

  • This is the best video on lighting I've seen so far. You're a genius!

  • @smickphoto thanks :)
