This was inspiring to watch. The most valuable lesson in this whole video is literally the fact that you should never be lazy when it comes to the initial setups. It will make or break your entire scene. Sometimes it can be overwhelming knowing that it's 2 small scenes that potentially no one will notice, to start building up complicated light setups... But you never know that those two small scenes separate you from what anyone else has been doing and give you a breakthrough in your viewers' eyes. It's a hard and valuable lesson to learn in the world of cinema.

This dude single handedly taught me how important back lighting and "outside-in" lighting.

Thank you for taking the time to showcase the behind the scenes and also offering insight as to how you worked.

I realy realy love the transparency and the authenticity in your Videos. I've had the feeling that I'm really learning something compared to other tutorials for a long time.

so much of your excellence in video is in set design, and costumes, your videos helped me realize this! Thanks for continuing to teach.

I press the play button of this video in my smart TV, I couldn't press the stop button. Wonderful and inspiring content! There are nice, informative, interesting, good or very good content in film KZfaq channels, but high quality and inspiring content, very few!

❤I always get inspired to film an idea I’m sitting on whenever you post. The more I understand your thinking on light placement, the more ideas I get.

Beautiful work.

lighting is an art in itself

You always inspire me thank you

First, thank you for this great video. As a DOP in Brasil, I can say that we always work on a tight budget and you show great skills on that. Second, could you please show us the camera settings for each shot? That'd be awesome. Cheers from Brasil.

I'm completely amateur on this, but I would to make scenes. I only have sony a7c, no lights at the moment. But I love the cinematic atmosphere, I can't stop thinking about this. The problem is I think is to complex sometimes and difficult to start with low budget. Your video is amazing, you have a new subscriptor.

Thanks a lot, not a single softbox used as majority of filmmakers recommend, that´s the diffference between a youtuber and a real DP, thanks for sharing mate

Dude, thank you so much. I can't believe I'm just finding your channel now. God bless you sir

Really missed you .... Thanks for coming back

Great lesson video; I envy you so much, that you can do what you love and prevail as a filmaker! I have noticed, that the video was probably originally much longer, since a lot of CC text remained, that arent even in the video, so I bet you edited out some parts. But still. editing a BTS video like this is a hell of a job itself. And its always a great lesson to watch them.

from one man army to a full team, happy to see your progress ❤

Wow! Just wow!! Your knowledge of cinematography is huge!

AWESOME @Andbery

Amazing thank you!!!!

Brilliant! Always inspiring. Your lighting is so realistic and never disappoints :). Curious about what soft filter you were using on the interior shots?

Learning everyday

love the content. you're somewhat hard to understand tho. there's this training technique where you press your tongue towards the teeths in various places (like 10 or so) while saying a sentence. when you do that just prior to recording it strengthens the muscles and makes for a very sharp pronunciation. also lifts the mood because one sounds funny af.

Great video 😀

#2 jst love your vids mahn

Very helpful for me

Really stunning frames

man so inspiring - really struggling with getting the right tone atm - tempting to blame the camera (zcam s6) haha just everything looks so muddy but I'm sure its a lighting issue. Going to put these tips into practise

Lovely shots, lighting and composition - but the static steam coming from the cup of tea took me right out of it. Try using Turbulent Displace on your static images to give them some movement.

Great tutor

Loved the video! Is there a timeline when the ebook with lighting diagrams will be released? Thank you!

This is at least $5000USD worth of game for free. Thanks KZfaq algorithm

Gajab 🥺🥰🥰

I’m curious how you would light and design a small home studio with basic KZfaq set up. I know you don’t do those kind of videos but I’m curious how you’d do it

great video!!! What music did you use in the background?

I'm very interested in how you secure locations, actors, wardrobe etc.,

Love your work and content. Very inspiring. Any chance you will start producing content that isn’t so “Victorian”? I was very interested in purchasing your course, but it all seems a bit to “period-piece” for me.

Great

Could you please try smartphone short film Using this lighting technique

Thank you so much for your video ! it's a beautiful gift ! I have one question : Can you tell what's the model of your dolly rail please ? (and the platform)

I noticed you don’t use soft boxes for interior shots just a lot of bounce and diffusion. Also I would like to know what your camera settings are to get that lowlight contrast look or is that something you do in post.

Do you have all the links of what you use to light? Greetings

Thanks again for the great content! Do you use any pro-mist filters? Or do you prefer to shoot everything clean, and add effects in Post? Did you do any Color grading on this job? Or is this straight out of camera? Thanks! Admire your work..!

ОООочень круттооо! Невероятно

woooow

Love your tutorials! What do you use as a phone app to get exposure reference from the pictures you took?

Beautiful video! Do you use LUTS for color grading?

Hello, thanks for the video! May i know why do you have 2 hollyland transmitters mounted on the camera? haha

She is a pexels mart production on 4 scenes, maybe the dude too, I can't be sure with the facial hair

Hey where did you get that slider system? Could you do a review of it?

❤❤❤

Which Dana dolly did you use?

How many hours of preparation does it take to set up a scene like this?

What was the total budget and cost of everything to make it? thx

Can you recommend any form of rain protection for the m600bi?

What does the process of finding the locations look like ? (are there wesites for this ?)

Where can I watch your short film

List of your equipment

supr

whats the name of the song at 6 minutes

did i tell you i luv u ?

This really goes to show how important lighting is. I just watched ‘smile’ , and thought it looked pretty low budget. I assumed they had used a cheaper camera but it turns out it was shot on an Alexa 65mm!!! The lighting on the interior night/late afternoon shots was so bland.

I’d love to appreciate everything this video has to offer, but I cannot understand a damn thing because of the soundtrack being overly loud.

the godox 600w is not water proof like Aputure. and the price is not that far. so i wouldnt recommended the godox

I think you mean scheme, not schemes. Or if not, it should be these schemes, not this.

Beautiful cinematography is meaningless without a good story and good acting. I am not impressed.

Too much blabla.

Horrible.
