Would a 20” beauty dish be about the correct size to use for the clamshell lighting setup?
Hi Tod, yes a 20″ would be fine to use. I use all different sized modifiers for different clamshell set ups, there’s no set rule as everyone’s face is different
Hi guys,
Sorry y I couldn’t leave a comment on Clamshell 4, but its regarding that video..
Was the scrim needed specifically to diffuse the light considerably or could the same effect be created with two small soft boxes at the same distance, separation and height?
Hey Simon, so sorry you coulnd’t comment but thanks for letting me know, I’ve just fixed it up. If you used two soft boxes instead of the scrim it would be similar but not the exact same, as with most of these different clamshell videos 🙂
