How we work

Plan a useful video lighting setup

01

Assess the scene

Consider the subject, background, camera angle and the room available for stands.

02

Choose the source

Start with a broad, continuous output that suits the scale and purpose of the shot.

03

Position and soften

Set the height and angle, then use diffusion or reflection to refine contrast.

04

Check the frame

Review the image on camera and adjust the source, background and support placement.

Frequently asked questions

Video light kit essentials

Why choose continuous light for video?

Continuous light allows you to see the direction and softness of the source while composing. This can make adjustments to a video scene more direct.

What does a softbox do?

A softbox diffuses light from its source, generally creating a broader and gentler transition between highlights and shadows.

How much space does a video light kit need?

Allow room for the subject, camera position and stand footprint. Extra distance between the source and subject can also help you control the spread of light.

Can I use a kit for product photography?

Yes. Continuous lighting can be useful for tabletop and product work because changes in placement and reflection remain visible as you arrange the scene.

What accessories might I need alongside a kit?

Depending on the scene, consider backdrops, reflectors, additional stands and camera support equipment.
