I subscribed to your channel not only because of the great content but also to anyone who gives Dean his well-deserved flowers is ok with me. Dean is an unrated talent man.

Never really paid attention to shapes as I being a macro photographer I haved used either rectangular or square shaped softboxes and they just worked for me.

Thank you for this video. Answers so many questions I've had. My question is, you mentioned Rembrandt Lighting (at the 7:19 mark) and it being aprox 45 degrees over and 45 degrees up. Could you elaborate on this please? I understand the 45 Degrees over, but the 45 degrees up confuses me a bit. is it that it's angled at 45 degrees downwards towards the subject? Also, is there a best distance for a a soft box to be from your subject to provide the softest/most flattering light? Thank you

Nicely done David. I appreciated the side by side comparisons which really helps to highlight the learning points. As one gets into the larger soft boxes does a C-stand offer more flexibility for controlling the light set up? PS rectangle is a parallelogram with 4x90° so indeed in this solar system, maybe even the galaxy :-) a square is indeed a rectangles. Thank you

C Stands don't have any impact on controlling the light. They're just a bit more heavy duty and work better when using a boom arm. And thanks for the science info. :)

I always have assumed they are called soft boxes because they are made of 'soft' materials so they are light weight and collapsible. I remember times being in permanent studios where the lights were inside flat rigid panels built to the size of refrigerators. My choices are what ever I anticipate I can deploy on location as a one man shooter and not make a scene while I'm doing it. That's low to medium budget situations.

David there are white and silver softboxes in the octa which is more flexible to shoot with. plus how wide should the square softbox best fill in light and still be portable for outdoor plus indoor shooting. Guessing that distance to the subject is what affects the fallout of the light

I think silver gives you more versatility. You can remover the diffusion to get a very specular light. The add one or two layers of diffusion to make it basically the same as white interior.

And yes, distance matters of course. How big? As big as you think is "portable." :)

@@DavidBergmanPhoto So it would allow me to be give the image more of coverage of light to balance the subject. moving the light would allow me to soften the light fall on the subject as well thanks David
