Many thanks 3 out of 5 here just changing . Really helpful video and no none-sense really grateful
Wow amazing video , i love your way of explaining.
Very helpful, thanks! I’m a freelance photographer that has shot mainly events, gigs & landscapes, but I’m just starting to get into product photography. Love that you’re an Aussie too, so if you recommend something, I won’t always have to get it from the US haha. I bought some of those clips at The reject shop for $6!
awesome mate!
GOOD AND SIMPLE!
Glad you found it helpful Julio 😊✌🏼

This was extremely helpful, especially when you showed how to highlight and shadow on a glass bottle! Thank you so much for this video!
You are so welcome!
Good video, by the way!
Thank you!
Hey mate, I understood everything since I'm in AUS as well. What stands do you recommend for holding things like paper and items with the clamps? Where'd you get the black paper drop etc? Anything else also interested to know where you got them, cheers
Amazingly helpful video 🙌🏼 I didn't quite understand HOW you created the tray out of the acrylic sheet? Could you maybe explain how and what you have used? Thanks a lot in advance 🙏🏻
I wasn't expecting so much interest in this so I might make that video explaining how 😊✌🏼
You should do a tutorial in how you made the acrylic box!
Btw the video was super helpful..
Thanks for the idea! Might add this to my content list ✌🏼
My thought as well - you would get a loot of views from that one 🙌🏼
@@SusanneGeert Ha! Thank you for the suggestion 👌🏻
Helpful but it would have been better to see the actual positioning of the diffuser with the lighting
Happy to cover this in other videos ✌🏼
I could love to se video of how you created the tray out of the acrylic sheet. Or cCould you maybe explain how and what you have used? Thanks a lot in advance 🙏🏻
Hi Susanne - its on my list to make this tutorial 😊
Great video. Thanks heaps for the tips. Just looking at getting into this area of photography. Do you have any videos on your lighting set up, backdrops? Its so confusing! Confused if I should go continuous or strobe. Love from Sydney, Aus. Off to Bunnings now to get those clamps. 👍
Hey Vicci ✌🏼Glad to be of help! I don't have any videos of my lighting set up yet, but if this is something you would be interested in ill add it to my list! I prefer continuous lighting for product photography so I can really see those crisp shadows.
Hey Vicci - I just uploaded a video about my Lighting setup for you✌🏼 Check it out: czcams.com/video/3xEk7USInJs/video.html
any links for the acrylic sheets to buy from?
Very gd 👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
which kind of light that i should start to buy
thanks, is the foam core just styrofoam (thermocol) or is it somehow hardened and made sturdy?
Its just regular foam core from the craft store. We have found its quite study for what we use it for ✌🏼
How do you use that fome?
Hi, where did you get the large acrylic tray? Been looking everywhere for one of those!
I actually made it myself! With materials from my local Bunnings.
I purchased a clear try from West Elm in the US. But a search on Amazon showed some for under $30.
What weight fishing line do you recommend? They come in all weights and some are very thin and some are very thick.
40lb. Its super cheap and strong.
@@BidPixel Thank you.
@@vuk8985 Anytime, mate!
how thick is the acrylic sheet? thanks.
It is 3-4mm thick ✌🏼
Good tips, thank you. If you could level up your audio it would be very helpful.
Hi Bob - This was one of my very early videos, I promise the audio is a lot better quality now ✌🏼
Question: how do you reach out to brands? Do you work off of a platform like fiverr or something or just emailing individual brands. Asking because alot of brands that I've looked up email starts with help@. So I know it won't reach the right person
I work primarily with brands that have reached out to me personally, but when I do reach out to a brand I like to message them personally on Instagram. You would be surprised how well a personal message can work for a small business :)
what size of you acrylic sheet and tray please?
The one I bought from my local hardware store is 900x600mm and 5mm thick ✌🏼
I just hate those reflections 🥶
What mm lens are you using for this video?
16-35mm lens
@@BidPixel any reason you didn’t use a macro 100mm lens? Wouldn’t there be more detail? Thanks 😊
@@GoldenTechReview Don't worry that lens is definitely on my list but I've found the 16-35mm works well for now
COULD I PLEASE HAVE A NAME OF the light source and the black paper you have please!!!!!
Check out my most recent video to see my whole lighting setup! I get all of our backdrops from Hypop!
Yeah fishing line is great but you need a C-Stand to use it
True it is a lot easier with a C-stand, but there have been times i've made do with some poles and some heavy duty tape, or a second pair of hands 👌🏼
Links to your social media accounts takes me to Page Not Found(404 error)
Thanks for letting me know! Problem should be fixed now. If not you can find me @bidpixel on all social media platforms.
You leave no links
I've left links in the description for things that i got online. If there is no link then you will be able to find it at your local hardware store :)
What do you think about shadows in product photography?
If done well, they are a great way to add depth to an image. I’ve recently been using light stencils to add specific shadows to our images which I’m going to talk about in an upcoming video!
@@BidPixel thanks for answer 🙏
