It doesn’t matter what you call it: light tent, light cube, light box, macro photo studio, or a mini photo studio… with some cheap supplies, a hobby knife, and a couple of lamps, you can get your DIY on -and- make some gorgeous photos!
Soft glowing surfaces, sharp details, warm tone, all thanks to the miracle of diffusion. We show you how to build one, why diffused light looks so good, and show you how it works.
Whether it’s art or just snaps of collectibles you’re gonna sell on e-bay, a low cost light box can make a major difference!
Great Video!! Very usefull, will give it a try 🙂
Loved this video, loved the guy and his personality!!!!
Really nice Idea
What's the size of the foam core windows they cut out and tape-hinged together? 12"? 18"? I suppose either or any size would do. I just like to know exactly what they used and tailor mine specifically. I like how they did that, though. (But yes, less chatter and "jokes" and more to the point.) But TY guys for the info!!
Good tutorial but took way too long to actually get to it. A little preamble is fun but more than half the video is ridiculous
.
Loved it, thank you !
Loose the talky guy
Wow! great. Some project for me to do. Very interesting.
Yup, gonna build mine instead of buying the finished product for about 20-30$
Americans are so damn annoying. Couldn’t stomach listening more than 10 seconds to these two morons
Thewe guus talk no time
good idea
Needs front lighting – reflected. And yeah, too much talk.
I want to make videos on making instrument videos how should I center my camera without showing me?
More talk. So i skip
Great Thank you ! What kind of light bulb do you use?
you are the expert.
Cut the stupid jokes. And redo. Will be far more professional.
@DIY Tryin ..Leather hinges…well they are pretty cool , my husband put them on our mailbox when the door broke off..been there for years..thanks for cool, easy, cheap solution. I made a ring light w/ daytime rope light and wax paper . Gonna try wax paper in place of the tissue paper
would wax paper work???
Thank you, which type of bulbs did you use for the project ? I mean what brand and wattage ? I think producing different heat in Kl is very important .
Didn’t tell us what to use for defused, finally mentioned to use white foam board.
The fact y'all said that's ghetto an I'm ghetto lol hmmmmm
👍🏼 great
Hi guys! Thanks for the great tips. I know you mentioned that we could/ should imagine doing it ourselves on a larger scale ourselves but I would REALLY REALLY appreciate it if you guys would actually create one of these light boxes on a larger scale, say the size of a mannequin that is about 6 feet tall. I am starting a import and wholesale Bohemian clothing business in NY and many of the retailers I have visited so far would like me to email them pictures of all the items as they don't have time to see my items while at the store and would prefer to see the pics at their leisure at night or downtime. PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks for the great DIY videos, I have subscribed and will definitely share them with all my friends that sell online. Stay blessed…
the materials again?
I saw your video, went out, got the stuff and made myself a light box which works perfectly. Thank you, you saved me a lot of money.
We just went back in time! Young Bill Gates right there people!
would it be advisable to have a light source on top and reflective surfaces on the sides?
What are the Kelvins your using?
dont watch just blah blah blah
Are those "clamp lights"? What is the watts used for each bulb? Thanks
why not take that toilet paper and wipe your sweaty upper lip pal
Love it, love it
Thank you
