How can I set up advanced lighting for my home studio?

To set up advanced lighting, consider using a combination of key lights, fill lights, and backlights. What type of look are you aiming for?

I want a cinematic look with soft shadows.

For a cinematic look, use a softbox as your key light positioned at a 45-degree angle. Add a fill light on the opposite side to soften shadows.

What about color temperature? Should I match it with my camera settings?

Yes, matching the color temperature of your lights with your camera settings is crucial for consistency. Aim for around 5600K for daylight.

Any tips for controlling the intensity of the lights?

Using dimmers or adjustable LED lights can help you control intensity. You can also use diffusion materials to soften the light further.
