For soft light in small spaces, 0 leans into simple, high-impact tools and smart techniques:

  1. A hard light + white wall: Instead of buying a softbox, aim a hard light (LED panel, COB, even a small video light) straight into a white wall. The wall becomes a giant soft source, perfect for tiny rooms and tight corners.
  2. Softbox vs lantern: When you do use modifiers, a softbox is for directional, cinematic, contrasty light on the face, while a lantern floods the room with bright, airy, wraparound light.
