The foam board and foil are great but use spray adhesive to attach the foil to the board. Want more bounce uses metal colors like chrome spraypaint on foam board. Mirrors are another household item, great for lighting.
Good stuff. I've never thought to use green light on my green screen. Must try it. White baking paper is pretty good for diffusing AND can take the heat.
Yeah green light on a green screen makes a huge difference. I use Aputure lights for that. Those LEDs have an app where you can take a picture with your phone camera and send that color to the lights, so, snap my chroma screen and instant match! Caveat. Green Light on green screen does lead to more green bounce. I did have to move a bit farther away from the screen once I started doing that.
@@GSN-TG well, that goes back to the section in the video about controlling light spill with barn doors, tape, snoots or foil. Yes, green on the subject will key out, so part of the job of the lighting designer is to control spill.
Also called parchment paper in case anyone is looking for it at the grocery. It should work great over florescent (CFL) or LED bulbs. I wouldn't use it over an incandescent, though.
nice tips, thanks. i once made some photos with lighting from below some objects. i used a frosted glas to put the objects onto it and rgb light under it. i think its a nice effect, give it a try.
Good tips. Polystyrene foam panels are excellent reflectors - efficient and usually neutral in colour too. They are even a help outside in very bight sunlight - say a scene involves a character with a wide brimmed hat that shades the face to the point of near obscurity. Stand the actor on a large improvised sheet of while polystyrene and see the difference...
Other light tips... Don't forget your wall or ceiling. Just turning a light to bounce off a wall diffuses and softens it. Things like margarine or sour cream bins are useful. Cut a hole, stick it over your light and again, diffusion. Tape should be its own episode. Gaff vs duct vs masking vs painters vs packing is an important set of differences. Using duct tape to make a lens hood is a great way to make your lens sticky forever. Speaking as an American, "al-you-mini-um" is fine. What's the name of the language? "English." You're right and we Americans, Canadians, Australians, et al have funny accents. 😉 Boy, that jump cut to maniacally laughing Oli was jarring! FXhome by Artlist? That's the new official branding? Well. Ok, it is what it is. At least the FXhome name stays in play.

"I'd use this and then bake some cookies afterwards" 😂😂 I'd attend that film shoot!
For everyone in the US... All of these products can be bought at Dollar Tree and similar stores if you can't find it around the house! Cheap and easy!

What if the green light falls on our subject, that will key out some information too?

So, I am the first one to comment here
British = al u min i um
Amercan= alu min um
Different spelling different pronounciation 😄
Its Aluminium foil stop sucking up to the Americans for gods sake
As an American I’m fine if he pronounces it as aluminium. There are pronunciation and spelling differences between the two types.
