The fact that you chose Cronenweth’s lighting from Blade Runner as one of the analysis images is fantastic. It’s a great movie to study lighting. Kudos.

It blows me away that before last year I didn't even think about learning about lighting. Now I am utterly obsessed. It is such an important skill to have when being a cinematographer. Loved this video!!

These types of lighting breakdowns are invaluable!

Direct. Concise. One can't ask for a better tutorial !

Top tier material right here.

You are just tooooo good for your own good haha. Seeing this in person was insane. Keep crushing it 🔥🔥🔥

Perfect!!!!, Thanks for this video.

Enjoyed this video. Well done. Thank you.

Thank you 🙏🏾 this was a great video!!

This exactly what ive been wanting to do to practice/begin my cinematography journey

Love the vid Brittney! Keep up the great work!!🔥

Very informative. Understanding how light works is probably the most important part of photography but seems many dont understand. I just watched a video of someone reviewing an instant film camera and seeing the individual rant that the photo was overexposed and blamed the camera. Thought to myself "no sir you cannot aim a camera at objects in full sun without filters". Cameras cannot compensate like that.

Yes, knowing how to read images is as important - if not more - than learning to replicate an extremely contextual setup! Also, and I say it cause a lot of lighting breakdown/analysis do it, but doing it with a still is somehow incomplete. Films are moving images after all ;) In the Blade Runner example, you chose a frame where all his body is dark. Made me think there's probably a light dedicated to his face, but seeing other stills from this shot, his body catches the light too.

Very informative I love this video. Thank you for sharing - this helps a lot as a photographer how to use light+color to affect the mood/tone of the stories we’re sharing.

Great vid. I especially appreciate the nugget about catchlight.

Great video and channel over all. Alot of hard work went into all this.

Great video and it helped me understand the dynamics of lighting better

Nice one

This is gold!!!!

Great! I think that it will also be very helpful to watch that particular scene and understand whats the motivation behind or whats motivating the light.

Thank you for this. I have so much to learn

You da goat 🐐

Nice breakdown! I also look at location, direction, quality and then colour when I analyze scenes.

I do this too much when watching films lol. These are the reasons why it’s hard to watch movies with a cinematographer. 😂

Nothing else is needed only: 1. Money 2. Free lighting from the companies
