Profoto Zoom Spot
A projection attachment for Profoto flash heads that uses lenses to focus and shape the light beam with precision. Compatible with gobos for pattern projection.
Why it’s used: Allows highly controlled lighting effects, from sharp-edged beams to textured patterns, perfect for adding drama, highlighting details, or creating creative backgrounds in fashion and editorial shoots.

Profoto Hardbox
A specialized light modifier that removes almost all side spill, producing an extremely hard, focused light with sharp, well-defined shadows.
Why it’s used: Creates a look similar to direct sunlight or a bare bulb but with even more precision and contrast — perfect for dramatic, high-fashion, or graphic lighting setups.

Poly Board Black Large
A large, rigid panel made from black foam core or similar material, used to block or absorb light. Typically lightweight but sturdy enough for repeated use on set.
Why it’s used: Reduces light spill, deepens shadows, and increases contrast by preventing unwanted reflections. Commonly used in pairs to create controlled, moody lighting setups.

Floppy Flag
A larger black flag with an extra hinged flap of fabric that can be unfolded to double its size. Mounted on a stand or grip arm for flexible light control.
Why it’s used: Offers the same light-blocking function as a standard flag but with extra coverage when needed, making it ideal for blocking strong light sources or creating large shadow areas on set.

Grid Cloth
A durable, reinforced fabric with an embedded grid pattern, available in various densities from full to half-stop diffusion. Often mounted on frames or used as large overheads.
Why it’s used: Softens and spreads light while maintaining directional control, making it ideal for creating smooth, even illumination without excessive light spill.

Project Intro
The goal of this setup is to deliver a playful light that pops on beauty and jewellery - clean, bright, and versatile. Let’s jump in!

- Rig a 12×12 frame with Grid Cloth 2/3 (chosen over Ultrabounce to allow slight transmission for a subtle bounce).
- Place two Profoto ProHeads with Zoom Reflectors (see the 3D render), aimed into the cloth to bounce light back into the set.
- Start both at power 5.0 and adjust for the desired softness and level.

STEP 2
- Mount two Profoto White Medium umbrellas at the back (per the 3D render) to softly, evenly light the backdrop.
- Place a black polyboard behind each umbrella to block spill into the set.
- Start at power 3.0 and adjust to taste.

STEP 3
- · Place a Profoto ProHead with Magnum Reflector slightly behind the camera at camera-right.
- · Aim it at the model’s face for a gentle punch—use it only as a base skin light.
- · Start at power 4.0 and fine-tune to keep it subtle

STEP 4
- Bring in the key: Profoto Zoom Spot with interchangeable gobos to create shaped light/shadow on the face.
- Place it far camera-right so it doesn’t hit the background; fine-tune the angle.
- Add a black flag beside the light to block spill.
- Start at power 5.0 and adjust to taste.
- Camera settings: 1/160 s, ƒ/9, ISO 160.
