Building and using a low-cost Lightboard
There is not a lot of original thought here, most of this design and studio layout were taken from other lightboard guides. Credit to those that went before, specifically:

Notes on plexiglass size. I was looking for glass that was close to ¼ inch thick. This would be rigid enough and would be snug in the slot made for the LED lights. I found a 2’ x 4’ x 0.22” sheet which I used in the frame. The aspect ratio of this pane is not ideal, a 3’ x 4’ sheet would be better but that was hard to find. I also found that this pane has tiny imperfections in it and it becomes opaque when you turn the lights up, something which didn’t happen with my cheaper, thinner prototype.
Random thoughts:
Use a slightly damp microfiber cloth to clean the glass. Never use Windex or similar.
Short (5m) videos are best, and you need to think through your layout ahead of time
