Lighting Setup That Won’t Break the Bank!

Cheap lighting setup

Armando Ferreira, a popular YouTuber, filmmaker, and Inner Circle member, breaks down a simple lighting setup that doesn’t break the bank!

One of Armando’s favorite affordable lights (Pictured below) is the Viltrox light. You can find it HERE: https://amzn.to/2ycFinN

It provides a ton of light, is thin, and even BI COLOR! Definitely a great choice for your lighting setup with the amount of functionality.

An accessory that Armando constantly uses to help mount his hair light is a boom pole holder. This thing is a must and will help you out on most of your shoots!

The light used in this part of the video is the Quasar T8 Tube light. An excellent choice to light up the edges of a subject: https://amzn.to/2xWq6Ma
