    Great video as always, Pye. I use CAMP and also the MagMod stuff. FYI, I just recently compared the spread of various combinations. The grid was a small circle, the bare flash was an oval a little wider but a lot longer, and the grid/sphere combination had the largest spread but of course was more diffused.
  • Great job Pye! Always clear and succinct! Best reminder—- After getting all the prep accomplished with light modifiers etc…. Shoot more poses in that new environment!!!
  • This video was so well done. It was just like being a student on scene and seeing how the magic is made. I especially liked the explanation of the Rembrandt lighting, light position and face position.

  • Pi, you are a amazing Tutor, I learned a lot of you during the past years. Thanks for that
