Studio Lighting Setup

[jutzy]

Mga bro, ngutana nsd ko sa inyo ideas on how to set up lighting inside the studio. I have watched a few youtube videos and they are using 4 lights (33k sa gizmo). I need some insights on how just to have 3 lights (18k sa gizmo) and get PRO like image outputs.

Thanks!

Bai, it all depends on the look you are after. One thing you should know when using studio lighting is how to use light modifiers.

You can still achieve a PRO result using two lighting setup. But here are some samples, I hope this helps.


2 lighting setup - 1 strobe w/ Beauty dish and 1 strobe w/ Blue gel shooting the background.


2 Lighting set up - same as above but instead of shooting at the background I used the other strobe as a hairlight.



2 lighting setup - 2 softbox from the back of the subject.

Here is fully a lit subject using 4 strobes.

4 Lighting Setup - 2 Softbox for the subject and 2 strobe for the background.

start with 2 lights first, get some light modifiers, then work your way from there,

@jutzy: I know a few professionals who uses one light set up.. pero if mag commercial studio ka mas nice if you invest on good lights.. what is good light? kana will give you consistent results.. how many lights you should start? hmm.. ako vote is 3~4* (one main, one fill, one background and/or one hairlight) ayaw na i.bitin.. you never know what your client might ask.. better safe than sorry..
