This Video Covers: Using string lights in your cinematography a great way to get more than 30 days per year out of your string lights! I talk about why they can be useful, how to avoid cliche, how to mount them, and things to watch out for when using string lights. I also show off a few examples of their usage by themselves and with lens diffusion filters!
