I need a studio setup for photography and video, can’t decide which way to go.?
I’m trying to get by cheap but effective. Can you set strobe lights to be continuous lights? I’d like 2 continuous lights in soft boxes and a strobe with a barn door/honeycomb/snoot with gels, the stands, and maybe a soft backlight for greenscreen purposes. I also need a greenscreen (preferably 30×10 but 20×10 would work), with stands. And if it all packed into 1 or 2 cases that would be perfect.
Any suggestions? and should I keep a flood light handy just in case I cant get enough light?
oh, also need a white silver and gold umbrella (1 of each)
And- if I could get all of them controlled at 1 central point that would be outstanding.
Thanks!
I can’t answer your question, but I can offer a little.
I buy 500 watt photofloods for $6 on ebay. I buy clamp-on lamps for $2. I use two or three of them for shoots. If the light is too harsh, I aim them against a wall. For backlighting, you’ll need a less powerful bulb.
The stuff you refer to sells on ebay also.
