Turn a Broken TV into Amazing Video Lights

 

I salvaged materials from a shattered TV to upgrade my LED lights and make better videos. The fascinating materials inside of TV’s can turn the most harsh and intense LED’s into soft and diffuse light that make everything look so much better on camera. Who needs to spend hundreds on high end lights when a few bucks of materials can make cheap ones rock. For this project I used my Creality CR-6 SE 3D printer to make a frame that matched the color of the original lights. I also used my Glowforge to laser cut panels for the diffuser boxes including the special diffuser material I ripped out of a broken TV.
