The actual video start at 6:06, so you can skip the first 6 minutes of pathetic bashing and "look at me" from Bruce and get into it right away. Thank me later :)
Yeah! Especially since it was the assistant of SUE BRYCE!! And she travels the world training and teaching and has used that setup for years and years!
First, what's up with the snark? When "that girl with the fedora and flip-flops," aka Tiffany Angeles, did her demo, it was NOT for v-flats, it was to make painted backgrounds using polystyrene boards; they were never intended to be used as V-flats. Second, this exact process has been already demonstrated by Felix Kunze. I don't mean his regular V-flat demo, but the one he did on portables, using pretty much this identical procedure. Finally, this video needs editing.
It was intended to be a V-flat video. They made it for Sue Bryce, and she uses V-flats. She even shared it in one of her workshops. I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't an actual V-flat which is why I'm here. I agree, the snark is unnecessary. But we're all here because we wanted actual V-flats.
This is amazing! I searched high and low for something that made sense, budget friendly, portable and a video that actually explains it. For years I have waited for a DIY video !!! THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!
So the"girl in the fedora" is a friend of mine AND I'm not sure what value gets added to your video by tearing her up. Your video creates value as a DIY (minus the negative comments against Tiffany). Guess what...there's room for both of you in the UA-cam world. Personally I would reshoot the how to without trashing another photographer and probably get more followers. Thanks for the info though. I'm going to make it, but not going to follow.
It was totally not explained correctly to guide someone to actually make it following your directions. You kept turning it and throwing tape and saying after all that then yada yada without showing the actual process where you taped it and to what parts ? Maybe you could redo this video without being mean about another person and actually show the process completely
I can see their value indoors at a permanent studio, but to travel with those things, I would just use a simple large collapsible backdrop that's white and black and just hang it on a light stand. I find the large collapsible backdrops can be very handy on location for photographic creativity...
A backdrop is a completely different thing. The whole point of a v-flat is that 1) it stands on it's own and 2) it can reflect one or more sources at two different angles. And you don't need a light stand to use a v-flat.
i Liked this ESPECIALLY the part about the velcro. I already have 2 sets of V-flats made from the foam board at Home Depot and they are much sturdier than the 3/16th stuff. Seeing the use of velcro to hold them together I am going to tweak my sets then craft 2 more sets (from insulation) for travel purposes.
Brilliant! I was thinking of making 2 shorter separate pieces and just clamping then together on set to make a full sized V-flat, but I will definitely be making a version of this. It's not always available, but you using foam core that's two sided black/white gives you both fill and bounce plus negative fill.
@@TheBruceAllen technically it makes it stronger than the Vflat world one because it adds a paper core in the middle..I have a photo on my Instagram .. RobZimiga
Just a quick tip ( doubles the cost & weight ) buy black and white board. Tape this together before you start then you’ll have one black side. Alternatively paint one side.
So you say don't take a portable V-Flat outside so it won't float away. Then what is the purpose of portable except for indoor on location. I'd rather make them portable but with stands so they won't blow away.
Please reference the updated video. But they are portable because transporting them is easier. V-flats aren't for outdoor work. Their used for studio work. To either bounce light, remove light, or control light onto the backdrop.
You're losing your audience by hating on other videos and specifically calling someone out. Dint think I've seen anything more unprofessional...but the V flat is interesting.
Spraying the adhesive on top of the sticky side of the tape is stupid. You don't know how the chemicals might mix over time and you might end up with an absolute mess of a panel in months from now. Gaffer tape is already expensive for a reason, it's great pro tape. You ruin it with the adhesive.
I’m thinking in going through this but also thinking about put 2 together , a black and a white so you do a reversible one. Oh! Next time use meters please, what the f... is 3/16 of a inch!! 😱😁😁
camera work stinks buddy leave it stationary so we can concentrate on what you are doing wiothout getting dizzy yo umust feel likwe your worthy by moving your camera
I was just thinking why hasn’t anyone posted a DIY on a portable V flat. It’ll save some poor sap a few hundred dollars lol. Thanks for the video Zary!
The Bruce Allen Got to love the power of marketing. There’s possibly a hundred different brands of soft boxes and a million photography tutorials. At least you get a travel bag
How do spell THICK again
All these years...and someone finally noticed.

Thank you, very instructive. The video would be even better if you weren't making fun of someone else to make yourself look better.
LOL - Yeah, that was ONLY ONE of the really epic crappy parts - BUT - You get what you pay for on youtube - LOL!

haha thank you so much!! Glad i could provide some insight. I was just so sick of the other tutorials.
This guy loves the sound of his own voice
Wesley Poon and sadly his voice is very annoying.

Agreed. Specifically calling someone out like that is shameful.

It's pathetic to tear someone else down to try to make yourself look better.
It's his video, who cares. Ignore it and move on.

awesome Tina!!!
It's not necessary to make fun of someone else's video because you don't agree. LAME
This video could have been 3 minutes long ...
It would have been much better if you would have also listed the required items in the description 😊

Oh, you to girls are so cute!
Hey Fedora is fine!
Why mock another approach? Just say your point.
Great DIY definitely will try it. Thanks for sharing.
I took 77 spray and put the same foam board Black on the back side.. It's an exact copy of the Vflat world one..
Thats a great idea as well! I wish i would have thought of that.
@@TheBruceAllen technically it makes it stronger than the Vflat world one because it adds a paper core in the middle..I have a photo on my Instagram .. RobZimiga
@@TheBruceAllen also I cut a pool noodle to for the edges for storage kinda like they do for art frames in shipping to protect the corners..
but if its for a Studio whats the big deal?
Awesome video! I've literally been thinking, "how can I get V-Flats to my house?" Thanks, Bruce!
Read your mind Myron! haha i hope you build some.
Does the foam board have some sort of texture?
Just a quick tip ( doubles the cost & weight ) buy black and white board. Tape this together before you start then you’ll have one black side. Alternatively paint one side.

Subscribe because your energy is transcendent 🙌🏽
When you paint an opposite side in black will it affect velcro quality?
Great video!

? My panel is still holding strong. Are you a chemist or something?
I'm thinking roof height?,two 2 m tall foldable two gethered!
Driving with Bruce music 👌🏽
new theme song
Q: what is name of store u bought foam board ?
Yeah, Bruce is psycho. He has that look. The only way you have that look, is to GET that look, and he has it
I´m really curious... how the hell did you ran out of gaffer tape given it´s 50 meters long normally?
Dude even idk
When does he start making the v-flats?
never
Very dope. Would you recommend painting the other side black?
Yeah of course. Make it work double.

This is way too long, not very informative, and the technique itself isn't all that great.
Respect the technique!
too much useless talk talk talk... seroiusly guy.
Why is everyone trashing ted mosley?
how does one spell Thicc" or Thick. If on purpose, I miss the joke, sadly, if not on purpose, there you go. One Love.
forgot to mention the taping of the corner, theres def. easier ways, but this is your vid, so its your way. Bravo!
Thicc with two c's look it up
Stop making fun of other people. It doesn't make you cool. Quite the opposite.
This guy says 'nigga' in private.
Not sure spraying adhesive, on to adhesive, makes a tonne of sense, but hey, I'll bite!
It is really annoying how you do that thing with your hair. Good video thank you.
That sexy flip?
@@TheBruceAllen every time you do that it makes me want to smash my phone against the floor 😉
Its called Long Hair Swag
