There is also a fashion shoot and a basic video lighting tutorial. If you have a video that you think we might like to post, please click on “submit content” above.

Action Scene:

Two guys get the chance to set a car a blaze and snap some photos for their portfolio. Cool to see some young guys creating a darning backdrop. See the final image here.
