I think this is the first lighting video that I've seen which actually makes it clear what the function of a grid is. Appreciate the breakdown!

"continuity son, don't you know anything about continuity?" I'm dying

Man this is exactly what I'm currently looking into😂 controlling the spill. Maybe in the future can you do a budget or diy flagging lights type thingy video?

Great visual illustration of turning the light with egg crate and without to the camera. Way stronger than from behind the light turning up the nob aimed at a subject for teaching purposes.

Very helpful. Another way in which you are keeping the light away from where you don't want it to hit in this scene has to do with placement of your key light and subject (you). You've (intentionally) placed your key light at an angle against the wall so that: 1.) The light doesn't fall completely flat against your face (especially in your B cam shot), and also so that 2.) The reach of your key light is close enough to light you properly, but far enough from the back wall so that it isn't bouncing back into the scene and creating a flat image. The honeycomb definitely helps with the control, but this is still tough to do is smaller spaces with white walls.

Definitely the only lighting video I've seen that took the time to physically show us how the grids help to control the light instead of just telling us. Now I know exactly why I need them. Massively helpful! Thank you for making this.

Wow. How dare you say might lighting sucks. How’d you know?!?!

man brady you are such an inspo bro. thank you for these tips, much love to you man

I've missed your OG at home light breakdown videos! :)

Love this tip man, it’s so simple but seriously had a huge impact on the image!

Thank you so much for the class.

Brady - thank you for another informative and enjoyable video. You've taught me so much and I look forward to catching your latest because of your personality. Just know that we love you too and appreciate you as well. :)

Great video tutorial. But it would have been interesting to do it for daytime scene too. I mean for the night scene, your control of the light makes perfect sense. But how would you control your lights if that was a day scene? When you didn't control the light, it looked like a day scene actually. So with light control you get night scene and without light control you get day scene.

I have followed you for some time now and like your content and have learned lots from it BUT I'm over seeing so many video titles by people I follow that are more or less derogatory and confrontational towards their audience..."you're doing it wrong", " why your videos are no good", "why your videos look bad", "you're wrong about (insert latest gear here)", "why you're not making $$$ from your videos"...it would be nice to see more positive titles but I suppose they don't lend themselves to higher view counts.

Dude this video was very informative and honestly heartwarming and funny! Amazing content and super helpful! (also just subbed 😉)

Essentially, controlling it, also comes down to motivating the light. Great video!

Great video as always Brady!

i like KZfaqrs setting up lights where they live spending entire week month to plan this video and this lighting specifically, where in real life you have a location hired paid by the minute and time runs the speed of light and there's only two of you to shoot this project and the place has no black out windows XD. love the content no hate.

Nice job Brady, which barn doors and circular grid are you using on the Amaran 300c please?

Thanks for that! So helpful for me as a beginner. How do you know to set the right brightness of your keylight? I mean how do you see ob your FX3 if you are bright enough? Do you work with zebras?

Thank you ❤

SO! Good. Dang man you're a beast bro.

How do you keep your key light out of frame? That is an issue I have. Do you use a wide lens then crop in post, or you have a specific way for this [hiding the key light & modifier]? Thanks!

Love you brady

Great as always!

Can you also make a video on brightness levels. I know it has to be different for every scenario but maybe something that’ll help us understand the reasoning and make better choices to a well exposed image

Future video idea: what about a breakdown specifically focused on light streaks and background lighting? How to make a boring background look better, accent certain elements, etc.

When is your Blazer Cato review coming out?

If I’m lighting a scene what’s a rule of thumb for setting the temperature of my different lights

Totally agree. Which barn doors with grid are you using here?

Love your content bro, where did you get the Honeycomb for the 300c???

would I be able to use the amaran 300c as key light?

Great video! Who makes the barn doors and grid on the Amazon 300c?

Based on the thumbnail I thought you'd say add saturation in post haha. Good video :)

“Goes a million miles… goes a long way”💀

doggo obviously doesn't know about continuity :( lol

Loved the video! In my opinion, some of the lighting was a bit too hot (like the amaran), but that's just a matter of personal taste. :)

Your thumbnail proves that posture and facial expression also make a big difference 😂😂

Nice

You’re one talented guy 🥹

Great video thanks 🙏 but what happened with your fingernails? Do I have to paint mine as well to get the same lighting 😂

like and comment before I watch Because we all know we're gonna see something amazing

harsh..

Context. I get it’s about getting traffic to the video but nothing “sucks” unless it’s subjectively devoid of motivation or is lacking setup.

hi brady

How about you check your bubble on your tripod.

Your backlight touches your nose, so no

I mean, your lighting looks like any other KZfaqr lighting lol 🥴🤡
