I'm working on the bus again!
Added 2019-10-23 14:01:01 +0000 UTCIt just might be a while. I thought I'd give you a quicky little update to let you know what's going on in bus land. I'm going to smell like steel dust and welding fumes for a little while.

2019-10-29 02:26:12 +0000 UTCDid you consider a meet & greet in D.C.?
2019-10-29 01:44:29 +0000 UTCDiffusers! Diffusers will soften the light to make it more non-directional, while still lighting everything... That would help with the glare on the Whiteboard, and help fill in shadows of your face. You can then use a couple of box diffusers to give a 'flood' fill, then use a another more directional light to maintain contrast and depth perception.
2019-10-24 17:55:28 +0000 UTCHave a look at that guy's video on lightning, where he proves there's no need of a camera upgrade: https://youtu.be/0wqUWYx3UrY

2019-10-23 20:13:34 +0000 UTCBob Ross used a very shiny plastic palette, but he made it matte so it wouldn't reflect the studio lights by giving it a good brushing with steel wool or something similarly scratchy. Maybe the same approach would work with your white board?

2019-10-23 14:45:49 +0000 UTCThanks for the update. Keep the pace that works for you please. Quality over quantity any day.

2019-10-23 14:43:36 +0000 UTCWhy not use a fake beard for the "aging aging wheeler" effect! Or maybe make a bearded "you" appear from the future and warn you not to make a mistake you're made? :D Not to say the bus is a mistake, it sounds amazing, but for comical effect. Also: why not try to bounce the light(s) through photography reflectors for softer lightning?
