Great video Lauren! I bought a snoot a few months ago and I haven't been using it often since then. I've used it for a shooting this week as my key light and I fell in love with it! I feel like I'm going to have fun with it on my shootings to come :)

ooh that snoot looks nice but I think it would have to be a secondary light as a nice accent (as you said!)

@SinginSquid12 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you. This was an excellent video. How long does this take you to shoot and edit? With the multiple camera angles and setting up the different modifiers it must have taken some time but the quality and time you take really shows. Loved it!

@LaurenCarisShort 2 жыл бұрын

Ahh thanks so much! This video took about half a day to film. I got food from a local restaurant to save time, and I have a brilliant editor for my KZfaq videos now (kzfaq.info) - so that also saves me a LOT of time!

Hi Lauren! This is super helpful. What's your setup for attaching the scrim to the stand? Would love to know which stand and clamp you're using.

@LaurenCarisShort Жыл бұрын

Hey! It's a small Newer clamp that attaches to the top of a light stand and spins into different orientations. Really nothing fancy!

Incredible video. I've watched so many videos about flash and never has it been more clearer to me what exactly I need to use to get the look I'm going for. Thank you for this beautiful work

@restaurantmoneymakersbyitr11 Жыл бұрын

when you changed the setting of the flash are you also changing the settings of the camera to compensate for the more or less light?

what is the product name of the computer stand you use? I really like the hook for the cables and the drink holder. is that a V-mount on the bottom for a battery?

@markshirley01 Жыл бұрын

Thanks Lauren - I shoot a lot food and drink in restaurants and bars in the UK. I usually shoot near window light and use small leds to push a bit into the shadows. I'd like to try lights because obviously Im at the mercy of available daylight. I was thinking of using 2 AD100, one shooting through a transparent reflector leaning against the table (usually no room for a light stand), the other AD100 putting a bit of light back into the shadows at the front of the food, so basically a back lit scenario. Do you think this could work in cramped space.

@LaurenCarisShort Жыл бұрын

Hey Mark! Yes that sounds like a great setup for a restaurant. Quite often I'll just use one light because of space in a restaurant, but for backlit, your idea of filling the front a bit sounds perfect!

@bruceratskoff4429 2 жыл бұрын

On your previous videos, you've used a continuous LED. Now you're using a Speedlight, looks like the Godox AD200. Which is best? How do you choose between continuous and flash? BTW- I think your videos are very simple and informative, I love them.

Hi! I'm using the PIKA 200 TTL flashes :) I mostly shoot with flash, sometimes it's just easier to film shooting with continuous light! Hope that helps. Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching!

@@LaurenCarisShort If you didn't know: Thats a UK rebrand of the Godox AD200 (Pro). The latter will be a more commonly known name. Same product, different branding :) (In the US Adorama sells Godox stuff as Flashpoint). It's all cross compatible too.
