Believe it or not, that gel colour looks to be "Bastard Amber"….
This autoplayed after another video I was watching and it was so nice to see baby Peter in all his glory xD
I don't know I didn't like this look. Doesn't look cinematic or pleasing but it may be the color correction/editing. But hey it's 50…
WHERE IS UR HAIR!!! LOL Keep up the great work dude!
wow cool lightning
Hi, does anyone know how he attached the foamcore to the lightstand? I understand everything else, but I don't know how this works.
Very interesting take on lighting! I was about to purchase the ring light and then saw a video about the reflection of the ring in the eyes (true or not?!). Then, I thought about a soft box, but those are just massive for my small space – and they aren't something that can just be picked up and moved around! I remembered my husband was trying to put together some lighting for me a while back with some stands he created, so I thought, why not try those and see where we land?! I will try your adapting your ideas to what I have before purchasing something else. Thanks so much for your suggestions!! Brilliant!
Great video brother, very informative. Im working on getting my business up and running and i am on a budget until i can make money to put back into the business. Thanks for your wisdom and i just subd..
What did you put the first gel on?
Just bought my lamp and clips… Gotta get me the gel and foam board. Thanks for this vid. I wanted a cheap way to light photos and you aimed to please!!

Hey Pete 👋 – 019
well i haven't pressed the subscribe button in 2 years.. i believe it's worth it.
I fell for it. I was watching this thinking, whoa this lighting set up! Must be one of his earlier YouTube videos before he became Master McKinnon and then BAM 💥 perfect lighting 😂Great Video as usual.
Simple and more technical ..it affects the minds…!
Hi Peter
Does that work light need a power souce or it runs on a battery?
I can't stress this enough… I hardly EVER subscribe to a channel, but this guy! Simple, Informative and Effective. Out of the hundreds of videos I've watched, this is handsdown the best. Subscribed! Keep it comming, I'd love to see the ISO, shutter and setiings you used. Regardless, thanks fir the upload, keep posting stuff like this mister
I’m currently using a 150W Daylight balanced Spotlight in a cheap appliance. Shoot it thru a diffuser for food.

I can really feel your passion and willingness to help beginners like me. Keep it up!
I didn't know I needed this Video until I watched! Wow! Thank you. My new videos about to be extra popping now!! YAAAASSS
How we can we get an cinematic lighting in outdoor potrait….??
Awesome, thanks for this. Very helpful. Love your videos, man. Keep being you.
Recently!! Received an awesome DIY studio light lamp via AliExpress. I am very much satisfied with the packaging the service of them. So I decided to film the unboxing the package. Anyone interested can have a look, it would be highly appreciated. 🙂
Lighting scares me but that is why I am here.
Thanx for the video Peter, I was setting up lights for a little experiment and I remembered you made a tutorial for it, really helped out…
I've been photographing for some time now, I've never used some excessive lights.
I love a black and white photo, I'm running a buddy with me who uses 2 mobile phones to have a light. Sometimes even a flashlight. It's absolutely possible to make cool photos with only one flashlight and one dark room.
Hey Peter, just wondering how you attached the LED to the stand? Does the model you showed in the video have some sort of tripod threading? Or just clamps? Thanks!
Its nice to look back and see that even peter started in a dingy little office. Thanks for the inspiration.
Love this! Cheap solution and learned some stuff 👩🔧
Brilliant! Rockin' that non-existant budget, exactly what i need 😀
love this 🖤
What is this on the top of the camera pete??
Your tutorial is very good. Can you tell me which font you use when what "what" appears in your video?
A hug.

Does anybody know what gorillapod/octopus pod he's using to actually mount the LED light to the stand?
