Life is all about timing and I'm about to go shoot my first salon. Great tips. Thanks for doing these!

[@atdavidlee]

That’s awesome! Best of luck with your shoot and thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!

[@waywaterentertainment6377]

Great info and content bro. Thank you for sharing with us!!

[@derwinjax]

Great information. I’m very new to making videos and this was very helpful. The only tool I have is a camera (6700). I’m broke, so I had to start somewhere. 😅 I’m a bit limited, but I hope to grow. What about lighting? Especially in a Salon, there’s a lot going on, with customers coming in and out… what did you do for that?

[@LJH2007FL]

Thank you for sharing the tips!

[@atdavidlee]

Glad it helped!

[@afti03]

[@nihalshallaby]

[@AndyGray157]

Super awesome tutorial, thank you. You went a little too quickly with the Color Matte example. My slowness couldn't keep up. I've worked out how to get it up, but there was a few clicks you did.. a quick explanation would be appreciated... I've got my 3rd ever shoot, and first paying, at a Salon this weekend :).

[@BeauBerman]

@@atdavidlee yeahh definitly, I've shot a commercial for a barbershop yesterday. It was helpfull to see your toughts about it!

[@edwin_thebarber9364]

I like your video

[@bikefishcamp101]

Hi David. What kind of camera can you suggest for me to get I am just starting and I want to be able to explore more on this type of cinematography. Any tips on camera type is super appreciated! Thanks

[@atdavidlee]

If you’re really passionate about learning cinematography it’s really not about the camera in the beginning, it’s 90% lighting and lenses. That being said if you need a camera to start off, depending on your budget I’d look at a BMPCC 6K, GH5S, Sony A7III

[@bikefishcamp101]

Thanks a lot David! I’ll go ahead and check that out. Super helpful!

[@joonajks]

What color temperature did you use in the beauty salon video or what’s a good color temperature to record beauty salon videos?

[@atdavidlee]

Thanks for the question! In general you want to color balance to the most dominate color you’re looking at. If you’re pointing the camera at a bunch of in door lights you might want to use 4000K for instance. If you have a window in the background that’s pushing in daylight but also have in door lights in the scene you can try splitting the difference and use 4800k for instance.

[@joonajks]

@@atdavidlee got it!!! Thank you very much!!!

[@atdavidlee]

You’re very welcome! Thank you for taking the time to watch the video! 🙏🙏🙏

[@rubperez2005]

Awesome vlog. I’m curious...... did you film in 24fps? How about your timeline? Thanks in advance

[@atdavidlee]

Hey Ruben! Most of it was 60p delivered on a 24p timeline 🙌
