Our Finalized Updated DIY Photo & Video Booth #YouTube #Shorts

In this #YouTube #Shorts episode, we take you with us as build an upgraded photo and video both so we can further bring you better content.

One of the benefits I have had over my career is working with professional photographers and videographers to see exactly how they worked. From things such as lighting and placement, to the overall look and feel they go for. As such, I've seen some awesome photo and video setups that I have tried to emulate. While professional photo booths can cost a bunch, I was out to make a proper booth without breaking the bank.

Supples:
8x - 1/2 in x 5 feet ($1.89 Each, $15.12)
8x - 1/2 in 3 way Coupler ($1.19 Each, $9.52)
PCV Pipe Cutter - $9.99
Mini Spring Clamps - $4.99
Fitted Sheet - $ 6.89

Total: $46.51

Goals:
One of the main things I wanted to achieve was to eliminate seeing the walls of my gaming room as I film. As such I wanted to have sides to this new setup. I also wanted to gain some additional height vs what I currently had been using.

The build:
I wanted the width to be about 38 inches, this way I could still use the pull shade I have been using as a main backdrop. I measured the height of my existing stand to be about 22 inches, but I wanted to go a bit taller, I also wanted to go a bit deeper than my current 20-inch depth that I had to work with. My initial build was actually a bit TOO tall for my needs. I will shorted the height to be closer to 30-inches, compared to over 3-feet. I also changed the design, and instead of having a full cube, the front lower bracket foes not have a cross bar. This way, I don't have to reach over a cross bar anytime I am filming. As such I changed to a $0.19 U-joint coupler.
