DIY lightbox and potentially softbox
CrunchGear — ... suitcase were lit? Yes. This is my dream. All it would take is a mirroring of the first half of the project. Program a robot to do the first half and then flip the suitcase over if you must. Just get a second bulb (perhaps brighter) and maybe some wax paper or paperboard to put on the sides. And there you have it: a suitcase that opens up into two glowing sections — place product on bottom half, adjust exposure, and fire away. I’m so going to do this. [via Lifehacker and Make]
