Hello! here’s how we can create our very own shaped bokeh. ^^
U’ll need :
*Sugar paper
*Sellotape & scissor
*Large aperture lens ( i am using a Canon 50mm 1.8 )
First, u’ll have to cut the sugar paper into the shape of a lens hood.Make it slightly bigger than your lens to make sure it fits your lens easily.
Next, cut the shape u preferred (to appear as ur shaped bokeh, for e.g; heart,star,plane and etc.) at middle of the “fake lens” u did just now.
I don’t have the accurate diameter of the shape cut out but it will definitely give u different results in ur bokeh later. In my earliest experiment, my shape cut out were too big and the outcome was not so pretty so i made some new shape and make em’ slightly smaller. I preferred to do the shape cut out manually by hand but u can also use decorative punch to save time
So once it’s done, this is how your “fake lens” gonna look like .
