The Cheesiest DIY Flash Snoot

Can't believe that I could be the first to do this, or maybe I'm the only one that thought it was a bit humorous.

I was raiding the cupboard for some cereal boxes to make a snoot and some gobos out of and happened to notice the Kraft Mac & Cheese. Needless to say, it fits perfectly over my velcro'd 430EX head.

The test shots. All from ~5 feet away from wall. Light spot you see at camera left behind wall is the light in the kitchen.

Full power zoom at 105/ no MacSnoot.

Thats awesome, I need to go raid the cubbord.

I would have used 3 cheese personally. Also add the macaroni back in for a difuser....same effect as Tupperware!

now you got to paint the box black. and i hope you at least eat the macaroni too.

The 3 cheese was too expensive to just dump out. Actually, its funny you mention the tupperware, as the container I put the Mac & Cheese in may just be my "Stofen". After I eat the Mac of course.

I'm wrapping it with gaffer's tape as we speak, although I kinda like the look.

Brilliant, LOL

jahahahahhahahahah

I know what my kids will having for dinner tonght! Heh.

It's actually more of a barn door than snoot. Try making theend of the box into a narrow octagon or a circle for the snoot effect.

Yeah, I was thinking of putting a rubber band at the end of it to round it off. Might open up the last 2 boxes tonight and tape them together for a longer one.

Full power, MacSnoot attached.

I think you need to paint it white and change the name from MacSnoot to iSnoot.

You should be able to charge $100 a copy, just ask Gary Fong.



Cool idea BTW.

Sell them on ebay *LOL*

Great idea
