Lighting Breakdown: Podcast or Two-Person Interview

Welcome to yet another oddly specific lighting breakdown. In this video, I show the simplest way I've found to light a two-person frame. This is ideal for knee-to-knee style interviews or podcasts. Using just three lights and three stands, this setup is quick to implement and works great for three camera angles.
