Every video feels like a masterclass on lighting. I love that you have so little focus on the camera gear itself. You have your kit and you've mastered it. It's refreshing.
What light stand are you using for amaran 300c? I bought one after watching your video and I can't pick a light stand for it that is affordable but safe to use ;;
firstly i’m glad you got one! what an amazing light. secondly, i actually don’t own a c stand or light stand - i always use the ones at the studios i shoot at!
when i tell i screameddddd at that gorgeous double exposure shot, also the way you just started playing with the light and the amazing results you got 1000/10
Its crazy how good these images are... You are so good man. I would love to try something like this in the future but I have two question you could maybe help me with. Do you think in your case the Amaran 150c would be enough or did u need the power of the 300c ? And what model is your projector ? Thank you a lot for the Video... Peace and love from Germany
Hi Linus, I LOVE the concept, creativity, beauty and style of your SUPERB - single and dual exposure - portrait photography on good old film and camera. I also mainly photograph on film (timeless BW), in square and on my old reliable V Hasselblad camera. Last but not least, your gorgeous model Zach has that irresistible feline and androgyne look that makes me think about young Jim Morrison, young Mick Jagger, or young Willem Dafoe but in a thinner and wilder style. Congratulations from Belgium to the perfect team of co-creators of Beautiful Art. Do you sell prints of your work Linus? Mick
Linus you used 2 amaran 300c's to get two colors on the models face and the Iris is not included and needs to be purchased extra. Right, other than the projector? 19° Spotlight-Lense or also tht 36° lens? Otherwise it's seems too much of an ad. pls clarify.
Thanks for the cool video .. were u using it at full power ? Or around 50% ? And do u think the amaran 150c will be enough for this kind of photography? Thanks in advance
Dude, you look good. I imagine how happy you're when developing these photos. I love how you see things, I feel like, if I were your assistant I can learn a lot from you. Beautiful portraits as always. 👏👏👏🇵🇭
Can I ask if this is the 19 or 36 lens attachment for the spotlight? Whichever one you’re using seems like the perfect one for my studio space. Been on the fence about purchasing and I think your video sold me on it!
Love this light. I rarely use my 150d cause it just does everything I want it to do for the most part. Also your photos turned out amazing, reminded me of a David Bowie album cover
good video, like how you combine old school (film) with new school (light). Also, its amazing how Aperture is so late to the party of cob rgb or full color lights, but they get all the attention. Hive / Arri lights had similar lights in the market for 10 years already.
Yeah man, that hit all the spots. Great work! That last Pentax 67 image was my favorite as well. A bit of a bittersweet video as well for me, I used to have hair like Zach.. but 20 years later, and it's gone.
What a fantastic vid - it felt like a class on lighting! Great job! Major props to the model - a wonderful collaboration! Zack looks like a young Willem Dafoe!!🎉❤
loved the vid and love when you can do that with a light. i modified a lens of mine to attach to one of those "tofu" lights so i can do this and project shapes with shapes behind the aperture, idk what its actually called
Thanks for the video, the application possibilities are enormous if you can control the light. What about the fan? Is it audible when recording video in the studio in close proximity? Is the power reduced when the fan is switched off?
Love your results! In my opinion, these will undergo the same process that happened to Astera Titantubes... when those came out, everyone was putting them into the background of their music videos because it was a new look, then quickly people got bored by it (I already find my feed is slightly oversaturated with "spotlight" images). Then they proceeded to just be a nifty tool for more regular appliances, like making edge lights or practical lights. I can see how this Aputure LED could be my GoTo tool for simulating direct sun light with hard shadows.
Looking at adding 4 of these lights for a big job I have coming up, and was blown away by your vid man. You've inspired some creative shoots out of me!!
That mans Chin tho lol but this was an incredible video! Let alone getting to see how you use light, and your photography workflow, the images you created were spectacular. Inspiring even, thanks.
that last setup with just the basic soft box... Ive spent so many years watching fashion photography breakdowns and it's so funny to sometimes pull back and realize a big soft key light is literally the only thing you need. no need for vflats, fill lights, rim lights or catch lights. plain and simple and it looks GOOD!!!! absolute favorite shot from this shoot is the one at 9:33. looks like a poster for an edgy early 90's psychological thriller with political undertones. somethin about running from the cops, cheap motels and with a pack of marlboros in his old man's leather jacket.
