In this episode, Mark Wallace uses four Nanlite Pavotube 15C lights to create two different portrait styles. In the first lighting setup, Mark uses four PavoTube 15C LED lights set at a daylight color temperature to create a classic headshot with unique catchlights. In the second setup, Mark changes all the lights to primary colors to create a highly saturated image with some image blur for added effect.
