Have you ever wondered how people look so great in music videos? Have you wondered, "Where are the lights placed to get that elusive look?" The ring light has solved the problem of glamour photography and videography by providing perfectly even lighting all the way around the subjects face.  So much so that it's often requested by high profile artists for music videos. Sure you could complete this technique with "butterfly lighting", but it's just not the same.  We were actually surprised to even see our original Diva ring light light used in this music video my photographer Joey Lawrence http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_H8TOKcfjg The lighting unit mostly used in "the biz" is the Litepanels Ringlite Cinema which costs over $8000 for the kit! - Now imagine getting that same look for a fraction of the price. It's seems too good to be true - but here it is - ready to order the Mini Diva Ring light.
