I used to think that light only ever travelled in a straight direction. When I was in school I discovered that light can actually bend around things too. It’s tricky stuff! More than that, it changes throughout the day.

From the perspective of, well, humanity, that change is great. Generally speaking you would wake up as the light gets brighter, and fall asleep as the darkness grows.

Unless you’re recording in a studio, then Light Can Be Tricky!

We’ve made many videos over the past few years and the one thing I quickly came to value, was the ability to control the light. So, as a result, we always heavy black out curtains or blinds to ensure that any light we use is created – and controlled - by us. And this works well, right up the point that you forget to close the curtains until after you’re in the middle of filming an interview when getting up to close those curtains is either not possible, or you left it too late and have to just carry on.

Light Can Be Tricky. Just saying!

Just a thought…
