  2. this was an excellent presentation, thanks so much Eli !! wonderful easy to understand & pace was great too…. your images are beautiful! QUESTION: what was the name of the baby mini boom arm that you use to get your modifier pushed away from the light stand so you can better angle your light ? who makes it? sorry I tried going back through the video to find that one little bit of information and I just couldn't seem to locate it……… thank you
