 Hello, and welcome to Lamont Public Media 101 class series. I'm Sergio Angelos, Executive Director for Lamont Public Media. Today, we're just gonna do a quick little class slash tutorial on the GBM Studio LED light kit that you can use here at LPM Studios or to rent and take elsewhere. So GBM is great video maker. This is the kit that you can use here in the studio. So yeah, let's get to it. So first thing you'll notice when you open it up is that it will come with two stands as it does come with two lights. These are kind of pretty simple to set up. You just kind of expand them down here at the bottom. Like so. I'm just gonna do one just so you can look at it. So it does come with two since it does come with two lights. And then it also does come with two charging cables power adapters. This is so that if you don't wanna use batteries, which I have some right next to me to power these lights, you can also plug them into a power source. So those are it. And then at the bottom of the flap, you have the lights. What the lights look like. They come with a protective covering like this. And this is it. So on the front, you've got kind of the reflectors. And then on the back, you have the battery inserts as well as the control panel and the power here so that you can turn it on and stuff. So yeah, I'll kind of show you how to do it. So assuming that you want to use batteries, so you'll grab two of these GVN batteries that we also have here in the studio for you to use. And you just slide them on in like so. And then you'll notice that on the back of it, there's the power with both a zero, which is for off or O for off, and then a one and a two. The one is if you're using the power adapters and the power adapters go in here. And if you're not, then you wanna use the number two and that's for battery. So the first thing you'll wanna do is just kind of open these up. And again, you can configure these to wherever you want the light pointed and all that. And then what you'll do is you literally turn it on. So you move the power thing over to number two. And then we'll take a second to turn on and you'll see that light is coming out. So there's a couple of settings for you to just kind of know about behind the scenes and kind of what you can change. So the first is this BRR here on the back and I'll start slowly turning it. And as you can see, that one controls how bright it is and whether you want it fully on or higher intensity like this. This is at 100, this is at 50, and this is at zero. You can see it just turns off completely. So that's the BRR dial on the back and you just kind of turn it until you get to the setting. Next is U, SAT and CCT settings. So first is CCT. So this is set to 3,200K. So as you rotate it, you can see that right now the light is getting brighter and this is set at 5,600K. And you can see how it changes the warmth of that light. If you actually click and kind of press down on that button or the dial, you'll change the setting. And as you can see, I now changed it over to Hue. So you can rotate it and as you do that, you can see that these are in fact multi-colored LED lights that you can control the color. And again, you just kind of rotate it depending on the type of color that you want. So it goes up to 360, which is red. And then you can see that it just cover a wider range of colors that you can use, which is pretty cool. To get past that, you just hit it again and now you're at SAT. So you can see that as I'm lowering it, it's changing the saturation of that color. And now it's at 100%. Let me show you a different color so you can look at it fully. So now we're in red and if I go back to SAT, you can see that it's basically changing the saturation of that color, so it's not as intense. And again, you just turn the dial for that. And you just keep clicking it depending on what setting you want. So either CCT, again, for warmness, you can do hue for the type of color that you want. I like this as red, which is pretty cool. Or you can do it again for saturation. And again, you can also change the intensity of that on the left side, which is that BRR dial. And that's just a quick little tutorial slash class on how to use these studio lights. So I hope you've enjoyed this 101 class. And if you have any questions or want to come in and use these lights for yourself, just come on by to alarm on public media and be sure to check us out or just rent our equipment online. Hope to see you next time. Thanks.
