I love how your videos are just technical enough for those curious or entering the industry where more technical information would be overwhelming. And your editing is clean and well paced. Thank you for making these!
Sir great video can please you make video on the cinematography style of Subrata Mitra ,who invented technique of bounced light.... 1st cinematographer in the history of motion pictures to use this ...in Satyajit Ray's movies.
Kino also has 2900K bulbs 5600k bulbs are labeled in blue 3200k bulbs are labeled in orange 2900k blulbs are labeled in red The 2900k bulbs are less popular as they have the worst color rendition I spent some time working at a crappy rental house that only had 2900k bulbs, they would just send out the kino's with a big piece of correction gel and plus green to (hopefully) dial the light to be usable The tubes had a bad habit of turning green or magenta over time, that's why they threw in the plus green
Highly informative, thank you. From a newbie standpoint, what is the point of using HMI or Tungsten if you have LED? I guess for Tungsten it's the price difference, but other than that, any advantages as of 2021?
I recently bought a fresnel with a 2k tungsten light, it heats a lot, and I got a doubt about it: Do I need to wait the light to cool down to move it like a HMI or can I manipulate it hot without any problems?
Seeing a Telugu Dop an Indian in your tute made me very happy, the man with the sky panel is Kk.senthil kumar the Dop of Bahubali movie and the new INDIAN Bigger movie RRR directed by Rajamouli Sir 😊
Next time you upload a video, try not have 20 million ads between each subject. I can deal with 1 at the front and the end, but not all the way through
about the arri flicker free... its not really flicker free but it uses a higher Hz output than the High Speed ones. But you will still have problems when you are going to do extreme slow motion things.
Unfortunately LEDs produces a lot of heat, so it requires big coolers usually with fans which produces noise. Also good full spectrum phosphor LEDs are have a same light output in terms of lm/w as HMI which not require cooling system and can be much more powerful.
You should also add that, when using a full CTB on a tungsten yeah you get to 5600k but you loose about 2 stops of light (so you divided the light output by 4 which is enormous), and therefore the DP has to consider whether or not he plans to get 3200k or 5600k in his shot during preprod to avoid using a 3200k fixture and color correct it to 5600k therefore loosing a lot of output ! And you could easily expand more on LED and why it's better than fluorescent (almost no wire, no flicker and no ballast, can be battery, super lightweight, RGB), and therefore conclude that fluorescent will disappear in a near future in the industry !
I enjoy your videos, especially as someone who works in Film and Television myself, but I wish you would add the film title, year, and even the DP's name over the clips you use.
Man, thank you Your videos still inspire me in my creative life, from the first day I saw your first video Thank you for sharing! Greetings from Russia!
One thing I noticed, which I'd like to know if it is a consequence of LED lights largely replacing tungsten is, that films since the mid/early 2010s look different than films that were released in the 90s and 00s. The skin used to look softer and the overall picture had a distinct vibe that immediately felt like a film. It's hard to describe, but you might notice it if you look at the early Harry potter movies or the first Spiderman trilogy and compare them to more recent blockbuster flicks. If anyone can help i'd be glad to hear it!
I'm also curious about this, but I have a feeling there are so many factors in play, such as the advent of digital over film and the image getting sharper and sharper, sometimes too sharp for some DPs.
There can be several factors. It's not necessarily (only) the light source that gives the picture a film look. Digital pictures are super sharp nowadays. To counter that you can use a Black Pro Mist filter in different sizes: 1/8 (less extreme), 1/4 (more extreme effect). The filter changes pointy lights like leds to a more shiny light and reduces the overall sharpness of the picture. It also makes the skin softer. You can also add grain to a digital picture to immitate the usual grain of kodak film. Also CGI might be too sharp and look very artificial in general. Those are just 3 factors that affect the image we see and it's completely subjective whether you like the sharper or the less sharper film look. So, it's up to the filmmakers what they wanna use.
I get the need for sponsors but the overwhelming nanlite references were abit much. 3.5 mins in i’ve seen like 20 images or mentions. I stopped watching. Really dope channel but I hope this doesn’t become an overwhelming product placement sponsored youtube channel.
@@mauriciochavez3564 4.5 mins of bias promotion on a 12 min video seems a bit much to me. I truly hope this is not the future format. The avg commercial is only 30 secs.
