Hi everyone, total noob here. I’m trying to improve my studio lighting and setup. I’m filming in my basement which is just kind of the only space I have to work with, so I’m trying to make the most of it. I’m attaching three photos. One is a still of how I’m doing it now: very bright and very colorful. Frankly, I feel like it’s too much. I like my lights in the back but they’re so blown out that I feel like it’s stupid looking. I tried a different setup today with some different lighting, I’m not sure what I think. If anyone can provide some feedback, insight, or tips on how to improve, I’d greatly appreciate it. I’d like to have the background be further back, but I only have so much room to work and I want people to see me gesture with my hands while taking. Ideally I’d be sitting at a desk, I think. Trouble is, this is actually my home office and I have two monitors that are always on my desk and would Eva pain to constantly move around. Plus, it would actually put me Even closer to a more ugly wall. I’m hoping someone can provide some feedback.
