I would love to see these types of review videos with cheaper tools/tech and how you can use it in a more practical way

[AronBagel]

There's something about the quality of the light it gives off that definitely works. Bet you can make some pretty slick film burn effects with it too!

Getting a studio but only after 2M subs. Another reminder that we can all do more with less. Congrats on everything and I can’t wait to see the new spot build out. 🙌

1:55 It's caustic lights (when light rays reflected or refracted by a curved surface or object, like when the sunlight illuminates a swimming pool or the calm sea).
Good video Daniel, as always!

I LOVE YOU DANIEL PLEASE NEVER EVER STOP UPLOADING

I bought that same light for $5 and have a ton of fun with it. I was shocked at how good the quality is for $5.

Photography, videography, and cinematography are pure highly skilled arts. So in the hands of such a person the sunset lamp is worth every penny.

The glass IS in fact "refracting" the the light (changing the angle of the rays exiting from the glass based on it's refraction index) And the actual light landing on the cup would be referred to as "surface caustics" technically.

With your eye, and your skills, I think you could use anything. This is definitely cool.

Thank you for showing everyone the proper way to use this tool. The listings on Amazon and other places just do not show its proper purpose. You should try it behind a set of window blinds hanging in front of it that's a nice sharp line effect

[MarioSoMedia]

Love the lighting you can create with that sunset light. And studio space?! That's awesome. Congrats on that!

[tommydaynjer]

I got one of these as a stocking stuffer gift for Christmas and It’s sat in its box the whole time. I’m pretty impressed by this video so I’m actually going to take it out of the box finally!

other creators: average content with $10, 000 equipment
Daniel: Unreal shots with $20 light

It's not light creativity it you man it's your creativity how you use it love you bro

[HellaReckless]

I now have more things to do with mine lol bring mood lighting

[speliotis]

Great use of the sunset lamp. esp. when diffracting the light.... But any light source can be used in creative ways. a candle or a simple flashlight Which I carry around with me so I can light people's faces at night to do portraits.. The new LED pocket flashlights are quite useful & versatile....

This sunset makes me want a tequila. It’s 7am.

[jakeclark]

I want one! And hell yes new studio can’t wait!

[KianteMarron]

I’ve seen it countless times on TikTok and didn’t think about it so much as I assumed the quality would be subpar and just a trend. Now that I’ve seen the way it looks and it’s use I would be more likely to get one for sure!

[toastermon]

Looks pretty interesting, It'd be cool to see, if you can achieve a moody, high contrast afternoon look for a whole room, maybe with a little bit of haze and multiple of those lights placed behind some blinds.
