I purchased this light kit:
oliviatech.com/new-ephoto-pro-studio-lighting-kit
after getting frustrated with all the DIY clamp lights, etc. After assembling just one of these softboxes and turning on all 5 bulbs, I was amazed at how much light it produced. So I assembled two of the three softobxes and I need to use them to light a very small area, basically just a subject sitting in front of a wall in a 11x12 foot room.

Here at Videomaker, we often delve into the academic fundamentals of video production. We try to boil everything down to the “right way” of doing things.
I think everybody may like my new site so just sharing it here: http://bigleaguefilmschool.com/

Zylight new F8 LED Fresnel is a compact lighting instrument that collapses to less than four inches thick for easy transport and storage and delivers all the performance of a traditional Fresnel lighting instrument in a much more energy efficient design.
Hello. I need to know what kind of results the lighting kit in this link will provide in a indoor setting. I was hoping for a warm mood but I cannot find anything about these lights. Do you think they are ok for this low of a price? I know nothing about lighting and I am just getting started in the video realm. Any advice?

Hi everyone,
I am doing some videos (mainly talking head and interview type videos) and am not satisfied with the current light output. Currently, I use a setup of 110 watt fluorescent bulbs for the key and fill light and a 45 watt for the backlight. This isn't enough light for my needs.
What recommendations do you guys have who make videos?
I am converting one of my rooms into a dedicated editing and colorist suite. I am looking to install overhead recessed or track lighting to illuminate my editing desk. What kind of lights are recommended? Are there any guides that can help with designing a room for editing/colorists?

As Old Man Winter lowers his cold frosty mantle upon the earth, creating dark chilly nights and crisp wintry days, many video producers think of hanging up their gear until Spring returns. But from shots exploiting winter's lovely light reflection to the striking colors of the magic hour, the dead of winter can be an enlightening time to shoot creative scenes of beauty, peace or desolation.

Hi everyone, long time lurker here.
I've been working freelance for a few years and knew about this problem, but had never really needed to worry about it until now.
I was recently hired full-time as an in-house videographer / editor for a company, and have been working out of a standard office cubicle and external locations for the first few months while a studio space is built in a large partitioned area of the workplace. The space will be used for shooting products, promo videos and misc. video tasks (e.g.: brand managers, rep training videos etc.).
