Space Saving Light for Online Zoom Classroom

Aug 13, 2023


I recently moved my house around a bit to accommodate my new life, and that meant changing my office space...
Once again.


I feel like I'm forever doing this. I've taught in so many places in my house. It would be nice to have an extra room in my house to teach from, but since I don't have that luxury, I am lucky enough to be able to work from where ever I want to in my house, and that's pretty cool.


The lights that I was using before were really cool box lights. They were PERFECT, professional photography lighting...and I loved them! But I recently shoved them away in the attic crawl space because they don't fit anymore, and threw some small lamps on my desk. They just don't do the job.


I spent hours searching Amazon to try to find a light that might work, and I eventually found this one:

I love this light! If you want to see the whole review, check it out in this video, where I compare it to the regular lighting on both my camera and on Zoom, and with the backdrop/ green screen.
