Description: Be sure to watch Part I of our interview lighting series at youtu.be/nQ0eBkAX6xo In this episode, I demo the use of a 4x4 silk to create a soft key light along with a hard background panel to create texture. We also use a practical light to motivate a soft rim light. This is a fairly quick way to light for an interview or talking head video. Thanks to Litepanels for providing the Gemini and Astra 1x1 panel lights for this demonstration.
