Photo boxes

[Srt14292]

Now I know many of you have photo set up areas, with branches etc etc, with a jet black background, you take AMAZING pictures with them.
I was wondering if somone wouldn't mind walking me through making a simple photo box (materials, lighting etc etc).
Cheers dudes! (and dudettes) :main_thumbsup:

Get a gigantic clear, sterilite container.
Buy either a HUGE piece of white poster board or black poster board.

Bow it in there.
If you do not have an external flash for your camera, buy 2-3 clip lamps at Menard's/Lowe's/wherever.
Get daytime bulbs...60-75 watt (I think).
Place your scenery within the posterboard area.

Snap away.

Use the burn tool on your post processing program (photoshop, gimp, whatever) to darken your black background (Gid taught me that trick).

There was another thread on here a few weeks back asking how to make a photo box and one of the responders actually included a youtube video in their reply. Maybe if you put photo box in the search bar you'd could find it.
