That’s how you do a tutorial! Appreciate the do’s and don’ts and the example of how you tapped the edges together.

The easiest straight to the point video on making a v-flat! Thank you 🙏🏼

Made a 8x8 today for the studio. Worked like a charm. Very informative and easy to follow tutorial. Thanks again!

This is the best DIY V-flat video I've seen.

Thank you very much, straight right to the point with no nonsense.

Thank you so much for making this video! I'm currently in the process of looking for a V Flat and a lot of what you recommend is what I'm going to do to make my own!

AWASOME!!. Thank you for demonstrating the part where the boards or apart from each other before you add ducktape. That is the secret.

This is perfect for what I want to do with my streaming. Cheap and easy instruction! Thanks!!!

wow ... this has given me such a wonderful idea ... thanks for sharing

Absolutely helpful for my business! Thanks for sharing!

The most comprehensive diy I have seen yet ,bravo.

Great video! One material to keep on your radar is 4'x8' corrugated plastic, the kind used for pollical/real estate yard signs. While I have not made v flats with it, I have a Dr Seuss photo backdrop and used lightweight medal hinges stitched in with heavy fishing line. I came upon it when my boss tasked me with making the largest paper airplane I could and after huffing and puffing for days I thought of corrugated plastic. As for the photo booth I primed it with kilz before painting it. I'm so happy that the elementary teachers can easily move it/ tuck it somewhere out of the way. I wish youtube could let people post photos. I'm always dreaming of ways of making stuff with it.

Excellent video. Thank you.

Nice video! It kept me from buying the wrong stuff. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Im currently making a v-flat im using it for a backdrop. This video was great

Love this, I'm definitely going to give this a try

This is amazing! Thank you

Thank you! I will be making my own vflat thanks to you

That was great! Thank you so much for the info.

Great video! Clear and informative.

Thank you for sharing your process - including the mistakes you made!

Thank you! I thought I was original with this idea and was having trouble seeing how to execute it. Decided to check out KZfaq and your video has been very helpful!

Great video...very informative and helpful...Thanx...!

Thank you I have been thinking of buying some flats. But I think I will make my first set

Thanks Austin for the informative video. I am on a budget so I want to save as much as I can 😉.

This is a fantastic tutorial!

This is a brilliant option, especially for those of us with small spaces to work with

Very nice tips! Thanks

Nice and honest. Good.

Thanks for the info!

Thank you. This is good advise

thanks for the video!

I was thinking about your ideas when I went past a demolition site where a house was being pulled down. There were a half dozen 2040 x 820 mm (6'8"x2'8") timber veneered doors which I got for $100 AUD. I picked up some butt hinges, castor wheels and a couple cans of spray paint from the hardware store and went to work. Fortunately the doors were already checked out so I didn't have to chisel out the doors for the hinges. I just placed two together up on their sides and screwed the hinges in and castor wheels to the bottoms and laid them flat to paint. I've only done one pair black and white so far. I'm going to leave one set in the wood veneer panelling for a more masculine look of back and ponder what colour to paint the other the other three sets. Thank you for the inspiration.

Thanks for this video. I went to lowes to price materials for a party backdrop. That material has doubled in price😮. I think this might work for what i had in mind and a lot easier than i anticipated. Thanks again for the tips, too.

So helpful! :))

Good stuff

Awesome video. thanks. I was about a day away from dropping $400 on a pair of V-Flats

Th aos a lot 🎉

Thx

I remember seeing black blackboard paint, for schools... so matt.

Maybe use primer first, and then Rustoleum Chalked paint which is very matte when dry, that's what I paint canvas backdrops with

how would fabric work? I'm thinking of building frames and then having the fabric go over it.

Would taping color poster paper be more efficient then spray paint or paint? I want to do this, I'm thinking of attaching fabric and use fabric adhesive. Hopefully it'll work, trial and error.

Can you say more about what kind of board you used? I looked up poly board on home depot's site & they have many kinds.

What are foam boards and what are they primarily used for?

Hi I’m planning to build this from the plywood boards I found nice white and black no need to paint just the point is the black board is actually shiny black will it actually absorb the light like Matt black ??

I was wondering if I can make a 6 ft tall version of this using styrofoam board, cover it with sequin fabric and make a photo backdrop out of it. Any ideas/tips on how to make it work would be appreciated.

Should I paint them gray and use it as a reflector?

Should have bought 1 gallon white in a can and rolled. Cheaper, especially for a couple coats. 'Some come pre-primed.

can i ask why did you decide to paint? did you consider getting black and white foam boards?

Does the sheen in the paint impact the shot at all?

Sorry what is the dimension overall and 1 side .. can u update the description

can I use a PVC board ?

would 2ft pieces be fine?? ..i feel 4ft is small a fair bit

😳🤔👍👍👍👍👍🤗🇨🇭

Why is the vflat only 5 ft? Seems better to make it 6ft

Good job but I don’t really understand what if the flat is used for and have to look at somebody else’s KZfaq channel. I found the music to be monotonous and conflicting. I hope you take this as constructive criticism. I really appreciate the video.

contact paper for the vflats next time ;)

good video but incredibly distracting music choice

Lol! Just go buy two 4' x 8' foam core B&W boards. Gaffer tape the edges and make a book binding and you're done. These flats are too short and not enough width for proper studio lighting purposes! This video is ridiculous for the time, effort and expense! WTF!

Great Video ❤❤❤❤
