I'm sure this may make the photographers cringe, but for price it's pretty darn effective. It's better than nothing and works fairly well considering. No i'm not a photographer, just a geek with a camera.
Items required
1) 1x MFRB
2) Duct tape
3) HVAC Tape or white copy paper for reflector.
4) Light source
5) Camera/tripod or some stable surface
1) Turn the MFRB inside out, so that the white surfaces are on the inside.
2) Cut a out the majority of one side of the MFRB
3) Drape pillow case over cutout
4) Setup light a fwe inches back from pillow case
5) Setup a reflector on opposite side of the box to bounce light.. (I used a piece of cardboard covered in aluminum hvac tape, but white printer paper could work as well.
Info for the example photo.
Canon T3i, 18-135mm lens, Yonguno 565ex flash remotely triggered by camera F/8, 1/2 second, 200ISO, +2 EV flash compensation (Because I turned off all the other lights in the basement)
Though i'm sure somewhat similar results could be achieved without DSLR and off camera flash. I will give that a try tomorrow with my point-and-shoot.
