Back with yet another project for all you do-it-yourselfers, Griffin Hammond of Indy Mogoul has come up with an updated version of a prior video lighting build, expanding upon his first design, while increasing the unit’s overall performance in the process.
Customary in any DIY project, many of the essentials noted in the video below can be picked up at your local hardware store, and if you happen to already have some of the necessities at your disposal, it’s possible to create the functional, yet powerful setup for even less than the $86 mark Hammond details. The overall light output from the 8 compact fluorescent (CFL) bulb setup reaches an approximate lumens rating of 12,800, or about a 13 incandescent bulb equivalent.
If you’re in market for an additional video light and have some time to spare, Indy Mogoul’s latest DIY lighting solution may prove to be incredibly beneficial to you and your productions, that is if you aren’t afraid to get your hands dirty… Take a look:
