Reddit mentions of Neewer LED Video Light Kit with 190cm Light Stand, 2-Pack Dimmable 3200K 5500K 160 LED Photo Light Panel Lighting Kit with Large Carry Case Charger Batteries for YouTube Studio Photography Shooting

They have some with bar doors and filters. This is what I got.

Are those lights dimmable? It looks like you want to be flexible and lightweight. If so, I've really enjoyed this setup because not only are they highly portable, but you can also mount them on the camera hotshoe which is great for run and gun (ie. weddings). You wouldn't be disappointed.

This is the kkind of thing I was thinking of.

The biggest problems most "amateur" porn have are:

1. Lighting. Poor lighting makes it hard to see what is going on, and with modern digital cameras (including cellphones) will drive up (numerically) the "ISO" leading to grainy, images. Sometimes the videographers realize this and use spotlights, which makes it even worse. Buy some inexpensive lights like these https://www.amazon.com/LimoStudio-Photography-Portrait-Daylight-Continuous/dp/B071CZ2PCX or https://www.amazon.com/Neewer-Dimmable-Lighting-Digital-Camcorder/dp/B00Z8YDRTY/ experiment with where to aim them for best effect.
   
2. Most of the amateur stuff is either shot with a fixed camera position, or from the man's POV. Boring.
   
3. The acting *sucks*.
   
   The thing is that honestly cellphone cameras generally suck for taking video. The iPhone and Samsungs can get around this by massaging stuff in software, but tiny lenses and fixed focal lengths make it fairly obvious that it's cellphone cameras. The Mac camera isn't a lot better.
   
   You can get really cheap digital video cameras off Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/B07WGLZP12) to start experimenting with, and if you find you like what you're doing you can upgrade.
   
   Another thing is do you have anyone who could act as a camera man for ya'll?
   
   Lastly, as I say down below--google "Congressman Katie Hill".
   
   You're 18 years old, and you (probably) have a lot of life ahead of you. The choices you make now will shape who you are in the future. When I was your age I was a Marine who's goal in life was to finish my enlistment and become a highschool teacher. That lasted about 8 minutes after I got into college. I've done several things since then (Graphic Designer, Web Design etc.). Fortunately for me none of the stupid shit I did in college/highschool was uploaded to the internet.
   
   You have to ask yourself, what is my future going to be like if I'm identified. I'm not saying don't do this--without women willing to do porn there wouldn't be any. But I'm saying you might want to consider the multi-decadal ramifications of your actions, and take precautions to make it difficult to identify you and your partner(s).

What would be a good idea to do a “minimalistic” 3 point light fixture. Lately I’ve been accumulating plenty of photography gear for my side IG account (hobby photography / food), and I’m nearly “ready” with what I have to work with, but lighting is the 2nd to last thing I’ve left to work on, aside from a proper camera upgrade (DxO One), and yes, I already own a camera (Nikon D5300 & D7200), but I’d much rather keep those things exclusive for my job.

I’ve been considering this Amazon offer from Neewer: x2 CN-160 lights, x2 light stands (lightweight, most likely I’ll upgrade when I can), x2 medium sized batteries, a compact wall charger, and x2 softboxes. I could use my current Yongnuo YN-600 Air to compete the trio and use that as a key light.

My planned budget is somewhere 100-200$, in case if that was an issue.

Pros and cons of that:

+

• 100$ value, so it’s a bargain hunter’s wet dream.
  
  
• The LED Panels are pretty potent for their value: bright, can accept AAs (I’ll opt for rechargeable if given the chance), and comes with gels (one of their recommended buys has a 4 or 8 color gel set).
  
  
• 6ft high light stands, I probably won’t need something taller than that for the time being, and it’s lightweight so it won’t be a burden to me.
  
  
• If in some cases it’s overkill for a 3 point light arrangement, I’d can use it for 2 point.
  
  
• It also can fit snug with a few tripods I already have: Joby GorillaPod Action Kit, KobraTech’s large smartphone tripod, and a Manfrotto PIXI, if I’ve wanted to use it on a table or shorter heights.
  
  -:
  
  
• I’d have to buy two other LED panels that I don’t own, and I’m collecting several by now that I either don’t have any use for (Meike S150 Fill-In LED Panel), would be too bright (Lume Cubes & Yongnuo YN600Air) and throw off the balance.
  
  
• Lightweight light stands. Sure they’re not a wise choice if used outdoors or wouldn’t hold up to shaky grounds/other people pushing, but if I were to get heavier lights or more $ to spend, I’ll look into getting sturdier light stands.
  
  
• The simple compact charger for the battery just seems underwhelming, a good reason why I have a faster one with room for two batteries to charge (NP-F 950).
  
  My other option was to grab another Lume Cube Air (I currently have 2), and wrap up my trio of them. Lume Cube Air (I was close to “cheaping out” and getting a clone but I’d much rather get the original) are compact, I can use it as a fill light or get any corners/unchecked spots, and plenty of other functions I wouldn’t do with a larger light, but it’s way too narrow in terms of lighting.
  
  In short, which option should I consider (for my minimalistic gear & side IG):
  
  100$ Neewer bundle for 2 CN-160s/Softboxes/Light Stands/Batteries and potentially fit it in with my Yongnuo YN-600Air or a Lume Cube Air to fit in with my 2 Lume Cube Airs.
  
  Hope to see some good insight!
