Love it! Think I would've dimmed the light bulb a little in the top right in the wide shot and not see the lamp shade in the close-up. Nice job !

Amazing! Love book lighting and I love your rig. Dumb question but couldn’t you just set up a deep umbrella and that becomes your book light? I see photographers use umbrella’s all the time and the deep umbrella especially is just a book light where it bounces off the back of the umbrella and is then diffused.

Love the content! Why wouldn't you have brought one more light, turned the overheads off, and then bounced that second light off the ceiling for some fill?

How to light a small office... "Put 1 softbox in their face, And hope it has 2 windows... Thank you". Really? A hair light through the right window or a ambient UP light behind the chair would have been helpful.

For a corporate interview setup, I think it's already great, but I'm gonna nit pick one little bit, if you could manage to keep the exposure of the window in the background just under clipping, the shot would have looked even better. On another note about placing the F22C so close to your subject, yes in terms of size of the light source to the subject you get that softer wrap around on the subject's face, but with it being so close to your subject, you actually make the light feel quite lit and not as natural. That is because the fall off of the light is stronger than what the environment is providing. So it is a tradeoff you are making if you decide to light this way. If you wanted to make it look more natural, you'd have to back off the light and perhaps shoot it through a larger diffusion or use a light source with a larger lighting surface. As for the overhead lights, I'm not sure about the color rendering quality, if they don't affect skintone too badly, it is still ok to have them on. But I much prefer to have them off and introduce my own ambient and hairlight if needed. However, this takes more time and more equipment to setup, budget and time of the shoot may not allow for such adjustments.

This was amazing, more please 🙏🏾

This guy so just so good. 🎉

What app is that for the white balance meter?

very detailed, thanks for false color tutorial, and also learned how to talk with testimonial before interview

Bro that line going out of your zoom into the camera is a great idea thank you for that so smart!!!!!

Great video! Thank you for sharing!

Diggin it bro! Please make a video on editing s-cinetone via davinci 🙌🏼

Oh the video is amazing! I really like it but can you explain how to calculate K when using a lamp?

Does it work with the amaran pt4c tube?

Was the amaran light at full power?

"receding hairline" I feel you brother, me too 😂😂😂

Thought: what if you bounced a light off of the ceiling so you could better control the temp? It was a tight space, so I definitely get not doing it. This was 🔥 though. Thanks for sharing your process!!

I love seeing you have the same conversations I often have with people. The same little tips and tricks. Sometimes when I do corporate interviews where they want to speak "off the cuff", I'll have a folding whiteboard stand just in their sightline with all their high level speaking points on it so they don't forget one. Brainstorming and pre-interview preparation are SO important for corporate work.

Love your commitment to the content and wearing a GoPro while interviewing haha. I think i would have flipped the key so that the bookshelf was in the negative space instead of a blown out window. I think a grid would have also helped you here to control spill or at least turning off the overheads so the scene image isnt so flat.

This was amazing!!!

Think I might have gone for a left to right eye line and used the glass front shelfs as the BG , instead of the burnt out window . Pulled that blind all the way down . And not have to boom out a key light . Think its better with the room lights off .

That client interaction is absolute gold. 🔥

One of the things I admire is your criteria deciding the right spot to film and the quantity of lights you’re going to use. I think I always tend to complicate things, and keeping it simple is also art. “There’s only one Sun” always taught me an Italian DP

Great video, I always learn something every time I watch one of your videos - thanks!

Hey do you ever run your f3 to your fx6 as well?

Looks good. That previous videographer needs to return their money. That was horrible.

Thanks for the video. Any reason you were adjusting the F22c by hand rather than through the Sidus Link app? Also, how's fan noise on the F22c these days; not an issue for you?

The 1/8 input you have, what is the brand you are using to come out of the Zoom and into the camera. And do you have hiss going into the camera?

Great work. I hope you are getting paid well. You are doing a job of a minimum of 3-person crew.

Appreciated you including the client interaction. Great information. Another well done behind the scenes. 👍🏻👍🏻

I feel like you'd get double the views if you posted a link to the interview in the description. :)

Super helpful video my dude. thanks

Watching PDMokry is one of the great joys of life

More depth with windows is 🔥

When you were using your phone to measure something, was it color temperature? I just never saw the numbers you were saying outlaid on the phone view maybe I missed something. Just curious about the process of what you were doing.

Robot Voice - "I love your videos. They are so great". Lol. Nice work man.

Has the clip with the F22c with overhead already been color-corrected? If so, I prefer the look of just the F22c due to less of a yellow cast. Great video, especially the part where you explain the process to the interviewee.

Great framing and composition. You're getting challenged lately in these small office spaces. I would have blocked the lights above, but with such a small room, it wouldn't be possible. You made it look great! I recently re-purchaced a Sekonic 800-u color meter to check ambient lighting. I have to compare it to Aputure's app light meter. I want to see how they compare.

Hey Piotr! What app are you using to match your scene? Also could you share the lens filter you may be using? Blessing!

Great video and very helpful. From the pre-interview conversation (interesting to see how you give them context and set expectations) to the piece by piece guide to your boom mic set up (I'm looking at getting one and switching from lav use). Also really nice final frame for the interview in a space that didn't give a lot of options. Thanks!!

This 22C seems nice, but lately I've seen Nanlite 240C :o

Thanks for sharing. Great content, as always. Question: line going into the camera from the microphone - it records both on the F3 and the camera? have you ever had problems with the F3?

Do you shoot the interviews with autofocus turned ON or OFF ?

First!

What type of stuff were you filming for 15 hours?

Love the video!!! Great job on this!
