How to Check if Your Light is Suitable for Scattergels
Set up your light on a stand, positioned 3 metres from a wall. Open the barn doors fully and if your light has a lens set it to full flood mode. Hold your hand 100mm (4″) in front of the barn doors and check if a clearly defined shadow without chromatic aberration appears on the wall. If you can create shadow animals, your light is ideal for Scattergels 🙂
For flash units, don’t rely on the modelling light—take a test shot using the flash itself to assess the shadow definition from the flash tube.
For Scattergels to be most effective, the spotlight needs to be a single-point light source. Modern open-faced spotlights with a single circular LED of approximately 20 to 35mm diameter are ideal. They need to be fitted with a black, non-reflecting barn door holder or a Fresnel lens with barn doors.

Beautiful light is something that cinematographers have been creating for many years using gobos. Now that photo/ video lights utilise cool running LEDs we can use Scattergels attached to a set of barn doors to create fabulous dappled light.
