What equipment do you need to build a basic studio?

First of all, you need a studio of at least 20~30 square meters, and the roof is preferably about 3 meters high. This area is filled with light from all directions into a 3M-wide standard background cloth, giving the photographer enough space to go back far enough to shoot.

The cost of this studio can't be calculated, just say other things that are needed (generally, the configuration in the studio varies according to the photographer's habits):

1, electric reel, around 500 yuan.

Different lengths, different shafts and different prices. However, experienced people will definitely recommend you to use the electric one, because manual operation requires two people, one to pull the scroll and the other to hold the background cloth, which is very troublesome to avoid the background cloth rolling down.

2. Various colors of background cloth or background wall, dozens of monochrome background cloth, goggles 100.

You can use a variety of monochrome non-woven backgrounds with a width of 3M, or you can use a large background cloth that is directly attached to the wall or has a landscape painting. Usually it is fixed with a scroll, and whichever one is needed is put down.

3, flash, a set of 400W lights, at least 3000 smaller, professional brands are more expensive.

This is the foundation of the foundation. Try to choose more than 300W lamp group, preferably 400W W ... at least 3 lamps, the more the better. At least one workstation is equipped with a wireless flasher, or multiple desk lamps are equipped with multiple groups of wireless flashers with the same specifications and signal frequency bands.

4. Soft boxes, radomes, honeycombs, filters, four-page sun visors, reflective umbrellas and soft umbrellas. Some of these things are bought as gifts.

These are accessories that are matched with the flash lamp, which are sleeved on the lamp head of the flash lamp and convert the light of the flash lamp into light of various properties and shapes for use.

5, reflector, very cheap, you can buy a lot for tens of dollars.

It can be used to fill the light on the backlight surface, and sometimes it can be used as a flash.

6, still life table, the price depends on the size.

Besides portraits, if you want to shoot still life, you need a still life table.

Extended data:

1, walls and roofs

No matter what kind of studio, its wall and roof structure should meet the requirements of general buildings. In addition, at the same time, the recording in the studio also needs to meet the sound insulation requirements, and the noise level of the studio must be lower than 35 decibels. At the same time, the reverberation time is required to be short, so as to improve the clarity of language recording and make the reproduction of outdoor sound effects possible.

2, door and window settings

A studio usually has a working door for transporting scenery, props, lighting equipment, etc. A small door can be opened on the work door for staff to enter and exit. In addition, a small door leading to the actor's lounge or dressing room can be added, which can also be used as a safety door. In areas with high humidity, we can consider opening two doors to facilitate air convection and keep the shed dry.

The size of the working door is based on the principle of maximum access to the scenery.

At the same time, the sound insulation requirements of the recording door of the studio should be strict. There are generally two ways: one is to use a double-door door bucket. In addition to the sound insulation treatment of the door leaf and the door crack, sound-absorbing materials are installed in the door bucket to form a combined door that can isolate external noise; Second, the door leaf adopts multi-layer structure, with damping materials filled between layers, and the door crack is inflated and sealed with elastic materials or rubber pipes.

3. Ventilation facilities

In order to eliminate the heat generated by lighting and other equipment in the shed and the smoke generated when shooting smoke, the studio is equipped with ventilation and exhaust equipment. However, the vents, return vents and exhaust vents of ventilation equipment also affect the sound insulation of the recording studio. Therefore, mufflers and anechoic chambers should be installed in ventilation pipes to reduce the noise of ventilation room; The return air outlet and exhaust air outlet should also be equipped with anechoic chamber to avoid the invasion of external noise.
