Well, do OWN your reflector or does your reflector own you? There is a very simple way to find out. Just fold it, toss it behind your back and catch it as it flaps open. I know it sounds easy, but try it. could be harder than you think.

We are starting an OWN your reflector movement and to make it formal we are starting a contest. See if you can pull that reflector stunt off. Film yourself owning your reflector and share in the comment below (you can share a link to youtube, facebook, vimeo, or even flickr).

The best shot and the best blooper are going to win a pack of prizes courtesy of Spiffy Gear: A Light Blaster with a studio adapter and a pro gobo slide pack (retails @ $287). We are also going to throw a 5-in-1 reflector in there. Just because you OWN it.

Deadline for this contest is next friday (Oct. 7th) , end of day. Don’t wait too long if you want to make sure you get it.

The rules are very simple:

  • If you can throw a folder reflector behind your back and catch it as it blasts open you can enter. (well, assuming your country does not tell you you can’t).
  • Post a comment with a link to your video below
  • All decisions are final.
  • We will pay for shipping, you’ll pay any duties, if they apply.
