My Setup

I worked in a commercial studio for 11 years. Did lots of table top photography plus full studio shots. Found this foldup background on ebay. 2 softlights. Background light. Plexi to eliminate shadow.

That looks interesting. I've never seen plexi used to eliminate shadow. Can you tell us more about that?

Nice set up never considered plexi to remove shadows. Got some in the workshop somewhere , must go searching and try it out.

Now, is the Plexi above or below the subject ?

And I don't see the second of the 2 softlights. . Or is it hidden by the "umbrella" on the right ?

On right can't see name on it. They are at slightly different angles.

Propped up at back. Modeling clay holds pen in place. Small light on right illuminates background. Could use different color light bulbs.
