This is one of the most amazing lighting videos I've ever seen. A lot harder to achieve when you don't have a team or access to so much equipment. Thanks for this!
I'm working solo tomorrow doing a corporate interview.... I know I'll be walking into a small office.. so I'm working with small lights for background & a modified light for main light... I have a tendency to go creative but I'll need to be more conservative.... Appreciate your breakdown & would love to see wide BTS shots as well as your illustrations... Thank you see you in the next one...
Hey, really love the videos, super informative however when you are explaining your lighting diagrams it’s difficult to follow your cursor and I have to wait for you to draw before I know where you are
Really enjoying this breakdown! Not sure if its been picked up on before but could you make the mouse a little more obvious? Found the tips great but at times had to chase around screen to find where you're sketching 😅 (may be because im on a phone though). Straight to the chase though, great stuff, subscribed!
Great informative video! What are you using to write on-screen for this type of video! Would love to pre-record info for some customers using this! Definitely subbing! Thanks for the information!!
Hey Zachary! Love your channel have really learned so much watching your videos over the last few months! I know you mentioned in the video about shooting dark scenes that it’s a bit advanced, but I’d love to see a video going over color grading/using a monitoring lut on set and how it affects the overall exposure for your scene? Would love to hear your input! Thanks for everything you’re the goat!
Man!! Such an amazing video about lighting!!! First video I’ve seen from you and definitely earned my subscription haha. Can’t wait to check out your your videos!! Keep it up man
Thanks again for taking the time to make this breakdown. I am just now getting to learn more about the use of tube lights, and these videos really do help me get a better understanding on the usage
On the first scene you used mostly 56k temp but it looks ...warmer? No doubt red hair helps and brown blouse... was this art direction? And was it warmed up in post? Nice breakdown! Thanks 👍
Thanks for watching! We shoot in daylight a lot, as we find it easiest to set with the lights we use. In most cases, we have a colourist that changes the colour in post.
Awesome video! Subscribed! Please do more like this, and pleeeeaaase take some BTS shots of your lighting in your next shoots and incorporate on those videos, it will 10x the value! If you want of course :) Thank you!
what achieves that soft creamy look? i have an fx30 and i use a sigma 16mm f1.4, and while the quality is amazing the videos seem really sharp, id like my footage to look creamy like yours
Thanks for providing the thorough break down. Seeing all of the work it takes to accomplish the smallest detail always gives me a huge appreciation for the crew and creative that goes into commercial work. 🙌🏽
Thanks so much for watching Matthew. It really is a collaborative effort and it couldn't be done without a great team. Love your channel, and thanks for watching!
I loved the breakdown. If I were to request anything to better any following lighting tutorials, the pen used for on screen diagrams is really small and thin and the color used blends in with the things your pointing out so it was difficult at times to follow along. Other than that, splendid.
Here's a video about that very thing! How I Became a Cinematographer ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OOTrrlXi9Ec.html . We'll be dropping more videos like this soon, thanks for watching
Really great tips! I'm currently a solo operator and there's so many golden nuggets in this for myself to remember, even though I don't have a team to help me execute. Commercial looked hella good. Keep up the great work!
Great lighting man, pulled off the high-key look really effectively. I'm curious, do you go onto location before a shoot & play around with lighting setups? Or do you go in blind & freestyle the lighting? I find that when I do lighting tests before shoots, I get a better result and I can really achieve that look that I want!
