Make shift studio
Posted: Thu Feb 26, 2004 4:55 pm
Hi Everyone,
I cleared out a room in my place to do some portrait shots. Looking at the price of reflectors and lighting in general was enough to make my head spin. And quite frankly a little above my budget at the moment.
So here is my question.
Who has any make shift ideas that have worked for them in the past?
I have had one individual say that using large pieces of cardboard wrapped with foil works great for light reflection.
How about lighting? are there any cheap ways to get by with lights? Maybe contractor's lamps?
Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Gary
