What?
@ Solid: Haha! I tried to pull that trick on them but they still think I'm irresponsible.
OK now my mom and dad are flipping out because I have notebook paper taped over my lights! What should I do?

You could toss some knowledge their way...
According to the physics fact book, the temperature at which paper will spontaneously ignite on its own is 451 degrees Fahrenheit, or 233 degrees Celsius.

Surface temp of a light bulb is
40W - 110C; 60W 140C; 100W 136C
(not an expert, just some internet searching)
I have a guestion say im filming in my room and there is a light above me that is hooked to the switch in my room, Do you guys turn that on

No, that's usually a bad idea.
I like to have a more naturally-lit feel, or just a straight-up backlit feel for my sets, so I generally only use one lamp as a spot, maybe a lamp with a softening filter, and reflectors. That usually gives me what I like.

Well, I now have a second lamp, I've forgotten what it's called but it's excellent. I had a lamp already that was about half the power, and it was decent, so the brightness of my animations should go up a notch.
Putting the light behind the camera, is sometimes bad, it can make the light reflect off the bricks, causing a really bad set
Yeah, I usually put my lamps above my sets, then put them at an angle. If you can get a lamp that has a flexible stem, it's really helpful! You can get one at Ikea for about 10-15 USD.
Mine is adjustable, yeah. I'd never buy a lamp that wasn't. Oh, and the one I bought cost about £10, it was on sale.
I use a florescent lamp and it has literally NO light flickers!
How many whatt bulbs do you guys use i use 45 but i've seen some people say 100:lol:
