Shootsolo is a free virtual studio lights app for video on iPhone and Android. Add adjustable virtual spotlights and colored lights inside the camera, move them, recolor them and set their intensity. The effect is live, so what you see in the preview is exactly what is recorded.
A virtual studio lights app is a video lighting app that styles the light in your shot from inside the camera, rather than with stands, bulbs and cables. Shootsolo's Studio Lights are adjustable virtual spotlights and colored lights. You place each light where you want it on the frame, pick its color and raise or lower its intensity, all while watching the live preview. Because the lighting is part of the camera and not something added later, the look you build is the look that is saved in the recording.
Open Studio Lights in the Shootsolo camera, add a virtual spotlight or a colored light and move it to the spot that suits your framing.
Recolor each light and make it stronger or softer. The preview changes as you adjust, so you can judge the look before a single frame is filmed.
Step back and film hands-free. The lighting is recorded exactly as you see it. Say "stop recording", then "yes" to keep the take or "no" to discard it.
Most solo creators film wherever they happen to be: a bedroom desk, a rented flat, a hotel room on a work trip. Real RGB studio lights are expensive, need stands, power and setup time, and are not realistic to carry around — and a plain overhead bulb rarely gives a video any character. With Studio Lights you no longer need to buy or use them: you build the same colored, studio-style look on your phone instead. Drop a virtual spotlight onto the frame for a focused, presenter-style feel, or wash the scene with a colored light for a music, gaming or late-night mood. Pair the lights with the skin smoothing beauty filter and exposure controls to finish your on-camera look, and use background blur or a green screen to deal with whatever is behind you. Then record by voice so nothing shifts between takes.
A virtual studio lights app adds lighting effects to your video inside the camera instead of with physical equipment. In Shootsolo, Studio Lights are adjustable virtual spotlights and colored lights that you can reposition, recolor and make stronger or softer before you record.
They are recorded. Studio Lights are applied live, and what you see in the Shootsolo preview is exactly what is recorded, so there is no lighting effect to add afterwards.
For the look, yes. You no longer need to buy or set up expensive RGB studio lights to get colored, studio-style lighting in your videos — Studio Lights add it inside the camera and record it exactly as you see it. They shape the image rather than add real light to your room, so a reasonably lit room still helps.
