How to use a reflector – Episode #25 Thursday

reflector examples

It’s time to reflect on our lighting issues. Reflectors are a great tool often overlooked, people tend to think inexpensive equipment that doesn’t require batteries isn’t worth using. A 5-in-1 reflector is an amazing tool that allows you to move light and lets you properly expose both your foreground and your background. We go over using the silver, gold, black, white, and translucent sides of a standard reflector, as well as some great tips on closing one, and an extra use we just figured out.
