This is an updated video to my last "crappy to happy" lighting video. I tried to make this as easy to follow as possible and use gear that anyone could get their hands on. The purpose of this video is NOT to get caught up in the gear I use because it's much more about the technique and light placement that really makes the shot look better. I use the gear I have which I do consider budgetfriendly considering most YouTubers use a $700 120D light, but I guess it's all relative. I hope you enjoy it!
Here are links to the gear that I used BUT the same effect can be accomplished with even cheaper gear. (these are affiliate links so using them REALLY helps me out!)
