How to get from Soft Lighting to Hard Lighting: OnSet ep.

Join Daniel Norton OnSet as he shows you how distance is the key to creating hard light when you are starting with a large source.

This is where understanding that size is relative to your subject and a “soft light source” does not always need to be soft.
