didnt know ryan gosling like doin grip work as well

Omg it's so cool that Ryan Gosling is sharing some of his industry knowledge here Major respect

Man, you look like Ryan Gosling if he mistook film school for acting school. I LOVE your videos by the way. I'm doing an internship in Germany at a Filmtechnik company that rents Film gear and literally every single piece of gear you covered on your channel so far I have had in my hands! I learned so much, thank you :)

Found you through the modern cinematographer podcast. This is great information, thank you.

Missed my lecture on Light Control yesterday as I was on set elsewhere.. 20 mins looking through Grip Tip videos and I'm all caught up! Cheers Dave!

This is great! I'm going to be working on my first feature soon and have learned a lot from your channel, and even found someone selling a full roll of ND (2 stops) for $50! Thanks for making this great content!

I'm watching this in July 2020, after watching quite a lot of your videos. You've come a long way, Baby!!!!!

Trying to splice two ND's together for a large sliding door requires further magic. Also, to clean up the light bleed on the edges, use 1/4" or 1/2" in "camera black" tape to close the gaps around all edges in the frame. Camera will rarely recognize the tape.

Yo bro... YOU SINGLE HANDEDLY SET ME ON PATH WITH THIS VERY VIDEO! Thanks. I'm a 1.2 Texas ND type of guy. Also... Now the shit costs $170 a roll instead of $125.

Thank you so much for your channel, I've learned a ton from all of your videos! Just wanted to say I appreciate your awesome work and knowledge!

I usually use plain water when attaching the ND to the window. The problem with using windex or any kind of detergent is that it decreases the surface tension of the water. Thus decreasing the "adhesiveness". Also when putting it on the window, I employ a top to bottom wall papering technique wiping from left to right as you're putting the ND on the glass, so you're pushing out all the airbubbles while you're putting it on the window. That'll saves you massive amounts of time when you're trying to push out airbubbles with a scraper.

I learn much with you than with my cinema school, thanks a lot! Continue like that!!

how am I just now finding this channel!!

Thank you so much for this video I will definitely buy some ND sheets!

Great info. Thanks!!

Great! All you need to know, clear and to the point. Thanks so much!

Very helpful. Thanks

A role of ND costs a fortune but that stuff people put on their car windows to black them out works just as well and cost £5 or £6 a role.

this is insanely helpful, never seen that before! Thank you!

I am learning so much from you. thanks

Omg! I'm learning so much! Thank soooooo much!

This vs Rosco black grid? Vs double net frame?

You are Mr. Excitement! You should be on TV! Oh wait you are! Hell has frozen over!

Ton of help. Thank you so much!

Good knowledge.

Great tip brother.

I needed to see this thanks for providing

Genuine question: If you have the budget, would there be a downside to using Prestige 20 or 40 from 3M? Seems better all around (other than it's not something you can buy cheap and quick and tape up in a pinch)

Really interesting. Many thanks.

Great video. Does it peel off successfully when you use the Windex spray against the window? Do you think it would stick if left for months?

Very useful!

Thank you so much for this

Love your channel! thnx

Awesome...

Wow, I would have thought that gafftaping it would look totally shitty. Great! Thanks.

u just love your vids man

Is there a budget option for these ND filters?

Great a channel man! Where are you from?

One thing I have not been able to find or verify aside from doing it myself BUT putting ND on the window is different than putting the ND filters on the camera. Do you have to increase the output of the light inside after placing ND on the window? Obviously ND on the camera the inside gets darker and you have to compensate with light. Does that happen with ND Gel for windows?

@griptips If i stuck a piece or more of that roll on my lens what will happen? Can it work like the dedicated ND 100mm or circular filters?

What is snot tape?

good

Go Green! Love the videos.

How do you deal with outside weather changes (from sun to clouds to sun etc) resulting in colour temperature changes inside the room of your where you re doing your shot to keep the same white balance ?

How about using window tint, do i get the same effect from nd gel? And what about the color shift?

what's your opinion on using scrim nets instead of ND filters to control exposure coming from windows?

Why pay more for a window Nd and not a filter that you can reuse

I've used ND's for decades in commercial photography...however, you can use a ND filter on your lens to expose for the windows and pump more light into the set to compensate for the under exposure...less time than prepping windows. 3 stop ND filter add 3 stops of light...
