Lighting Breakdown: Manfrotto Rapid Flag

[@LashahVideo]

Great video and your expertise in lighting is amazing!!!! Very good and informational!!!

[@MattSpaugh]

Thanks so much. I'm glad you found it helpful. More to come for sure - stay tuned!

[@12yfilms]

I love these kits. I own a pair of the smaller versions. I take them everywhere, especially when traveling across the country or internationally. They do it all! Thank you for sharing you thoughts on lighting. Very inspiring!

[@MattSpaugh]

I was really amazed at how small the kit broke down and the quality of the components - way better than the older kit I've been using for years. I can totally see myself getting the smaller kit just to have it on hand. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

You´ve got one more suscriber from México. Your video goes straight to the point, it`s easy to understand and there were useful insights that are practical. No nonsense, no flashy things. Thank you for the effort you put in this, greetings my friend.

[@MattSpaugh]

Thanks so much, I'm glad to hear that these breakdowns are doing what I'd hoped they would do. Feliz Navidad amigo!

[@whoabrian]

Great video! Thank you for being so detailed in your explanation. It truly helps! Subscribed!

[@MattSpaugh]

Thanks for the comment. I'm glad this level of detail is helpful. I wasn't sure if people would respond to it and I've been pleasantly surprised by the (mostly) positive response. More to come!

[@whoabrian]

@ I especially loved the technique you showed about bouncing the light off the ceiling for ambient light! That was a gold nugget! Thanks again, and looking forward to your next one.

[@MattSpaugh]

@@whoabrian I use that a LOT in corporate environments. I always try to turn off all the lights in those spaces so I can have full control over the look of my frame. It's really amazing how different placement and bounce angles can change the look.

You got 1 new sub. Nice breakdown 🙌🏾

[@MattSpaugh]

Awesome - glad you liked it. There will definitely be more of these coming in '25. Stay tuned!

[@bradleykussy]

Love the walk-through! Nice job Matt 🎉

[@MattSpaugh]

Much obliged! I hope you're well, thanks for watching.

[@kmalfred]

I’ve been patiently waiting for another one of your videos to drop. Happy holidays to you and your family Matt.

[@MattSpaugh]

That means a lot - thanks. There will be more to. come in the new year, I promise. Thanks for watching and for the kind words.

[@donnybristol]

Great job! TY

[@MattSpaugh]

Thanks! This was a fun one. The Rapid Flag kit is so much nicer than the cheaper flag set that I used in the past. Thanks for watching!

[@scottievee330]

Nice. Great looks.

[@MattSpaugh]

Thanks - this was a fun one. That Manfrotto kit really is a huge step beyond the kits I've used in the past. Easy to carry, easy to set up, and really nice results. Thanks for watching!

[@PaulSaxbyPhotography]

ice video. Some really useful information. I ordered this exact set 2 months ago. Still waiting.apparently they have had supply difficulties...no kidding..

[@MattSpaugh]

Glad you found it helpful - the kit really is a nice one. I'll definitely be doing more of these in the new year. Thanks for watching!

[@bobkrist1]

What would you have done to eliminate the big reflection on the front of the picture frame if this was a real gig? Put something under one side of the frame to change the angle of incidence? Great stuff, thanks.

[@MattSpaugh]

Yes, putting something behind the frame could've solved the problem on the initial setup, but once I moved to the book light, I like probably would've had to change my camera angle and/or moved the light. Hope that helps, thanks for watching.

[@Abelsaldana69]

reate video

[@MattSpaugh]

I don't know what that means but I'm going to hope that it's positive! Either way, thanks for watching.

[@goodjuicewhisky]

Whilst this is an informative video, the enormous mic hanging off your collar is really distracting, and detracts from the watchability in my opinion.

[@MattSpaugh]

I guess I'll grow my beard out a few more inches so I can hide it next time. Good grief...

[@goodjuicewhisky]

@@MattSpaugh I mean... I felt like that was constructive criticism? Your previous Lighting Breakdown had great audio, and no mic to be seen delivering a far more polished look.
