    I enjoy DIYing even more than the photography, so I might be biased. But this class is extraordinary.

    Great class for exploring approaches to light. I am disappointed that the gear lists referenced numerous times throughout the video are absent from a downloads section within Creative Live for this class. References to the lists and specific equipment being available on the instructor's website returns dead URLs and files that can't be located. As part of our purchase for this class, those materials should be readily available, but aren't.

    I enjoyed the class very much. Kevin Kubota shows how amazing images can be achieved with some practical DIY lighting. Makes me want to get out there and try these options. He makes better images attainable through a little innovation and practical problem-solving.

    Great Class! I learned a lot about lighting and enjoyed Kevin's humor and style. Kevin kept mentioning a PDF available for downloading but I couldn't find it anywhere.

    Informative and entertaining. Gave me a lot of ideas for DIY gear and modifying my existing stuff. Learned a bit about lighting in general, too. Would definitely recommend.

    Very useful stuff in this class! Not only does he teach you how to build your own lighting equipment, but he throws in a lot of good lighting techniques such as controlling your flash, background lighting, and exposure. And as always, he has a great sense of humor ;)
