    Using a simple two-light setup, Gavin Hoey takes you through three ways to turn the flat, great background into something with a bit more character.Kicking off with a simple reflector for a vignetted effect, Gavin moves to a stripbox for a graduated look and ends with a more dramatic light by swapping to a snoot.
