Key takeaways

  • Same lights, two moods. Change color and brightness (from 1:00).
  • Fog. Cinematic atmosphere (from 1:00).
  • Leg as stabilizer. With a new gimbal (from 4:00).
  • Purple on skin. Better than blue (from 6:00).

I shot a cosplay thing for @StellaChuu recently, and I created two different looks by simply changing the color and brightness of the lights, and I also discovered a brand-new gimbal.
