Solved my lighting problems

I’m running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) -
2.9 GHz Intel Core i7 - 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 - Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB.
This has made it possible for me to shoot videos good enough for YouTube using just the built in camera, clamp lights, aluminum foil, and parchment paper. Keep in mind that if your camera doesn’t zoom or pan, this won’t magically make those physical features appear. Also, after the first time you use it, it will only appear as a tiny icon on top of your screen. I forgot about that and was cursing it until I remembered. “Right click” on that icon to show the settings panel.
