When you shot fill flash, do you use the Wide-angle diffuser on the flash? Do you rotate the head for bounce flash or stright ahead?

Lots of questions don't know where to start. Would it be possible to do a video explaining a number of different settings and how you resolved how to use the flash for each setting? I know this is asking a lot but also do the same settings without using the flash so you have a comparison to show the differences? Great to see the site up and running again. I've learned quite a bit through these videos. Keep up the good work and welcome.

I will do a video on this subject that actually shows me shooting a room and explaining how I approach different scenarios. I think it might help to actually show what is going on as opposed to only talking about it in a figurative sense.

Thanks for the great work you do with the tutorial!

My question would be how you position the flash? On the camera or much higher or close to the ground? And do you use any light forming accessories (a softbox maybe)? Did you ever try to use more than one flash? In the sample picture I probably would have tried to put up a 2nd remote flash behind the sofa on the left to light up the further back of the room.

And something I'd like to know regarding windows in general: do you use polarizing filters to avoid self-reflexions?

Great to see the show back and running! Thanks for these videos I really learn a lot from these! Looking forward to more shows and maybe a show on a actual shoot.
