We Should Have Done This YEARS Ago

Quick Overview

The ShortCircuit channel moved to a temporary new studio space—a repurposed logistics department—which required significant construction, including framing a new wall, installing new lighting rigs with Aputure fixtures, and setting up three distinct sets (The Den, The Kitchen, and The Bar) to accommodate various filming needs while the main building undergoes renovation.

Key Points: The ShortCircuit team moved to a temporary set built inside what was previously the logistics department, requiring significant construction like framing a new wall (00:33). The new setup features three distinct areas: 'The Den' (03:24) for desk setups, 'The Kitchen' (08:48) for the main table/island, and 'The Bar' (08:49) which seems to be the area behind the main counter. New professional lighting was installed, including Aputure Accent B7c lights in an 8-light kit (00:01), Aputure Nova P300c and P600c soft panels overhead (07:09), and an Aputure Storm 80c point source light (07:41). The lighting system utilizes a modular, bendable setup with Aputure Infinibar PB12 and PB6 lights that can form custom shapes (06:38). Product unboxings featured the $69.99 Prismagic Series transparent screwdrivers (00:58) and several Teenage Engineering Bluetooth Speakers costing $250 each (10:18). The team is using a MotionGrey sit-stand desk (09:12) and controlling the numerous lights via the Aputure Sidus Link Pro app (08:36). The move was necessary because the main building structure required two years of work, meaning the temporary setup must last that long (01:48).

Context: The video serves as a tour and explanation for the temporary relocation of the ShortCircuit YouTube channel's filming set. Due to extensive, years-long construction on their primary filming space, the team built a new, multi-functional set within an existing warehouse/logistics area. The hosts detail the setup process, the new lighting equipment used, and the different thematic areas created for variety in their upcoming videos.
