Extreme Lighting Positions by Gavin Hoey

There are plenty of “rules” when it comes to the best place to put your lights and for the most part, the normal rules are actually very good advice. However, bending or breaking the rules can be lots of fun and might just reward you with some interesting results.

In this video, Gavin takes you through three very different one light set-ups, each of which breaks one of his personal lighting rules in some way. Once you’ve seen the problems, Gavin moves on to suggest how to make an extreme lighting position work.

So, if you’re looking for overhead light, side light, or direct flash, Gavin has some lighting tips and tricks for you.
