In the video I discuss using a ring light in conjunction with other lights and I describe the types of lights I use.

The light should be facing the wall and not me!? I've been doing it all wrong! This is mind-blowing and (content-improving!) insights. Thanks for sharing

Hi Caroline. Thanks so much for the kind words. You will need to test things out to make sure the light bouncing off the wall is close enough so that it still fills your face well. Try a few recordings at different distances and see if you like your image. And, compare it to the light being close to your face. Experimenting is always great.
Have you ever done any acting or commercial modeling?
Thanks again for your nice comments.
