The Photoflex Lighting School is a free, intensive, in-depth education on lighting and the general use of Photoflex products. What’s great is that even if you aren’t a Photoflex product user, the concepts that are taught in each tutorial scale and transfer to whatever equipment you might have. The good news is that Photoflex makes fantastic equipment, and many of their kits are very cost-effective. Either way, these tutorials are very, um, enlightening. It had to be said…

Many of the tutorials are aimed at photographers, and again, most of the principles transfer directly over to video (sans the parts about strobes, etc).

There are a ton of tutorials available, from lighting basics like “Angle of Reflection = Angle of Incidence” to “cookbook” type tutorials like “Beach Product Shots”. There are also an extensive selection of tutorials dealing with traditional subjects and issues like “Indoor Portraits”.

Read. Learn. Make better films.
