A number of companies produce flat LED panels like Fotodiox, Elgato, and Neewer of varying sizes that can significantly improve your on-camera appearance. You can position the light to create varying degrees of shadow on the face, but the “classic” position is slightly elevated above the head to create a small “butterfly” shadow beneath the nose. You want to avoid placing the light source below your face because it creates “monster light,” where shadows are cast upwards.

As the COVID-19 pandemic forced vast swaths of the population to resort to video conferencing, many people purchased supplemental lighting – and often ended up purchasing ring lights without understanding how they work.

At some point during the history of the influencer, the ring light became an accessory de rigueur, fueled by the availability of cheap Chinese-made devices. The original ring light was invented for dentistry by Lester A. Dine in 1952 because of its ability to cast an even light with diffuse shadows in a confined space.

But a ring light’s surface area of illumination is small. So if you really want to look good, you need a bigger light source.

As professional portraitists know, larger light sources result in softer light if the subject to light source distance is maintained. When used properly (i.e. camera in the center of a ring light and placed relatively close to the subject), a ring light can produce a very pleasing effect.
