DIY 3-Point Lighting for Video

In this video, I focus on how to create 3-point lighting using lamps and light sources you already have laying around the house.

3-point lighting is THE standard when it comes to lighting for video, photography and other visual media. It’s a super simple, no fuss, tried-and-true solution that always looks good.

I shot this video on the road and i didn’t have access to my fancy softboxes and umbrella lights, so I simply used the lamps I found in our house rental plus our overhead lights. It really can be that easy. You don’t have to buy anything to make this solution work for you.
