Better Lighting For Your Live Streams & YouTube Videos

This small mobile light kit will help you get better lighting for your live streams and KZbin videos. In this video, I show you the difference between a 5 light setup all the way down to a single light setup, and they all look great. 👉 Try StreamYard free: FreeStreamyard.com
If you are unsure how to light your set, this video will show you how.
You also don't have to use small lights. If you have the room to set up your lights and leave them up, all of the companies I mention in the video make larger, non-mobile lights that are amazing. This particular kit is what I'm traveling with and I am very happy with the results.
If you have any questions about anything in the video or the lights, please leave a comment and I will answer your questions there.

Dee, i bought the Falcon Eyes RX-8T but it came WITHOUT a battery. It's almost impossible to find info on batteries for this light. Very poor documentation. I wanna buy the Sony NP-F750 battery. Would that be a good choice? QUESTION: do i need to buy a charger or does the battery charge when pluggin the light (with battery) into the wall supply? thanks

[@DeeNimmin]

Hey Gert! Correct, it does not come with a battery but it should have come with a plug in adapter for power. Did it? I’ve only used it plugged in but just tested a battery with it and it didn’t give me any indication that it was also charging. Got the F7 light I talk about in the video it has the same type of battery sand I’m using a very inexpensive version from a company called Kastar. I believe Neewer also makes them. The charger I got was a $20 charger and while it’s slow to charge, it does charge.

Thank you. This is very helpful. I have been doing live-streams for 2 months now (started my channel 3 months ago). I use Logitech C920s. I’ve experimented on different lightings on a tight budget. My first few LS were terrible. My skin blended on the white wall. I have soft boxes in front me, lampshades on both corners behind me to frame me and then last night I used the purple shade on my flood light in the middle wall behind me. I think it worked well. But I need a highlighter on the side of my face. Thanks for this tips. You’re very helpful.

[@DeeNimmin]

Sounds like you have all you need. One thing about the C920, make sure you’re using the Logi software to manually dial in the look instead of running it on auto. Manually adjusting the camera is where it all comes together.

[@CathyCastro]

Dee Nimmin got it. I’ll do that and perhaps I can adjust the video quality as well. Thanks for the tip.

[@DeeNimmin]

@@CathyCastro Manually adjusting the camera can make a HUGE difference once you get it dialed in. That's how you will get the most out of your lights vs the camera auto adjusting for everything.

Thank you for the video i really love what adding a bit of colour can do to the over all experience, right now im using two soft box lights and a ring light, and dont get me wrong it works but i have a busy background, a horror doll collection wall, so i think if i add some light behind me it might help things, im just not sure how im going to do it yet, weather i illuminate the back ground itself or turn the light on me to pull me away from the background...i dont know, it will be a series of experiments i think

[@DeeNimmin]

It's an endless series of experiments. :-) Just make sure the background doesn't take away from you.

[@yeahnahbeauty]

@@DeeNimmin To be honest i think it does, its very busy but i really like it, i think im going to have to pull some things out and swap them out for some items that will help with illumination. my background doesn't reflect anything that i talk about in my videos, more so my personality, so i guess it wouldn't matter if i changed it up "simplified it"

[@kttravelphotography]

@@DeeNimmin Thank you sir

[@adriennesmith.artist]

How do you white balance? Is that where you point to focus on your face? I did my first live yesterday and felt like I needed more light. I have a drawing light that has a daylight bulb in it. And it has a gooseneck. I needed to diffuse it so I added some Walmart (translucent white) plastic bags over it. I definitely made sure to pay attention to it closely, in case it got hot. But nothing bad happened! Lol 🤣🤣🤣 I think it worked well!

[@DeeNimmin]

Congrats on your first live show!!! What are you using for a camera? White balance has different setting for each. Easiest way is to search for your camera or app inside of KZbin like this: How to white balance Sony Zv1 (or whatever your camera is) White balance is where you balance the colors. Focusing puts the focus onto your face (or object) so it looks sharp in the video and not blurry.

[@adriennesmith.artist]

Dee Nimmin I only just saw this, sorry brother! I have iPad and iPhone.

[@LilSassy]

How would you personally go about diffusing the light from the FalconEyes? I was thinking about getting one but the light is quite harsh.

[@DeeNimmin]

You can buy the light as a package that comes with 2 different types of diffusers. At the time of making this video, I did not have it. I do now. This is a good light if you are traveling, don't have much space, or are on a budget. If you can get a larger light with diffusion, the light will be softer. The larger the light, the softer it will be.

[@MrChonkachu]

What camera and lens are you using for this video? I’m struggling a bit with lighting and I feel like some of it has to do with my tech as well and just not knowing how to use it like white balance, color grading etc

[@StreamYard]

This was shot with a Sony ZV1. It’s a great little camera and does a decent job in lower light. Don’t worry about color grading just yet, focus on learning about camera basics and simple lighting. One step at a time. One good soft light source is enough to light you up and allow the camera to run on auto if you need it to. - Dee

[@teguhmuryanto]

Amazing lighting for background, I like that, but how can we use with small room..

[@DeeNimmin]

How small? You need a light in front of you. Something to light your face. That is a must. If you want color behind you, get 1 small RGB light and put it directly behind you pointing at the wall. It will need to go on a stand. I show an example of this set up a little later in the video.

[@teguhmuryanto]

@@DeeNimmin Thank you so much, I never thought one of big channel on KZbin read and reply my message..right now my lighting is only my lighting desk..

[@heavymetalchef5132]

Hi Dee are these are battery powered? I could always check the link! Thanks Dee

[@DeeNimmin]

Yes. Batteries are separate for the Falcon Eyes and F7. The RGB have them built in. The Falcon Eyes comes with a cable to plug it in and the RBG have small cables for charging that double as a power source. I need to check to see if the F7 has cables in the case somewhere. Send me a message on Twitter or in the CB group if you need more detail, I can get battery model numbers for you.

[@JeremyDeighan]

How does the RGB light look as a fill light, if you had two of those instead of the warm/cool light?

The small RGB could be used as a fill in a pinch, but being so small it will be a hard light. But in a pinch, you could make it happen.

[@CosplayDiaries]

Just want to ask why Logitech C922 isnt as sharp in streamyard and delayed? Need help

[@DeeNimmin]

1) Check your internet upload speed. 2) Make sure you are well lit. Low light will result in grain and lower quality streams.

[@charlottedavis27]

Im in a tiny area how do you get or where do u put the light behind you to separate your self from the background

[@DeeNimmin]

How tiny? How many feet (or meters) do you have behind you and the wall?

[@Khusrav96]

How about just the falcon eyes and the room lights on the ceiling?

[@DeeNimmin]

If you set it up right. The thing to be aware of with room overhead lights, is that they are not the most flattering on your face and can create shadow. If you find the right amount of light with a key light, like this Falcon Eyes or one of their larger ones, it will remove those shadows and light your face correctly. In hindsight, I should have added that option to this video.

[@ShadesofSage]

@@DeeNimmin Thank you for your response. I tend to use overhead ceiling lights for my videos.

Btw- please recommend steps on how to use DSLR for live streams. My Logitech is ok but not same clarity as my DSLR.

Were you using a webcam? What camera did you use for this recording? #HRwithEM

[@MarkusWITH_a_k]

Do you use manual focus and if so, how do you do it with no help from a person behind the camera. Reason I ask is because I can't control the white balance in auto mode buy can in manual

[@StreamYard]

I use auto-focus and set it to focus on my face. Most cameras will have options for auto focus, experiment until you find the one that works best for you. For mine, the "spot focus" is my head and it will fairly quickly focus on my hand if I bring it close to the lens to show something. - Dee

GoPros generally need a lot of light to look good. I don’t have any of the newer ones so I don’t know what controls you get. Are you able to change the ISO and shutter speed of it? I would start there if so. Lower the ISO down to 400 and start adjusting from there. You need to take it off auto. All that said, it still might not perform well in low light.

When I’m using my phone to video I do lock the brightness but sometimes I lock it when I know it’s not optimal. If I click on white it goes dark and when I click on the rock it goes crazy white. I try to use the slider but it doesn’t adjust to a gorgeous clear view like I see. I feel like my art is fine but my channel growth is so slow. Im working on lighting and the music. I’ve invested for the new year. I love doing this so much but I really need it to love me back in order for me to continue. When I get the light in I will report back here. I really appreciate the time…. Really I do. Most never answer a thing and I personally believe kindness matters. Thank you ♥️

Hey there! Thanks for that information...we really want this to work for you too! Your art is beautiful! Sometimes, channel growth is slow but it's all about being consistent...but we want to help so it looks good too. So in your case, it's a bit difficult considering that the table is white and the rock you're painting is black. What we would suggest is that you that you set up the lights, lock the exposure on the rock, and then adjust the brightness of the lights to try to bring down the exposure of the white table top! Diffusing the light (softening the light) will also help!I would suggest coming to our live chat at streamyard.com/contact and ask for Christian - Katie 🦆

Thanks! KZbin should give people little trophies next to their name for hitting those big even numbers.

[@edwin4625]

4:47 for lols. Hey Dee, how about making a separate video on your personal KZbin channel using only one light and multiple 'white' blankets in the background at different angles to have your one and only light bounce back as background light. (you know what I mean)

[@DeeNimmin]

Thanks for the suggestion. I am still stuck in another country and won’t have access to extra sheets or ways to hang them for a while. Maybe that’s something I can look into down the road.

@@DeeNimmin Not gonna lie, it does suck that you are still there in Mexico. (I'm from San Diego) And it does make me sometimes sad to hear Nick and company (yours and his followers) mention you not being there and missing your presence and what you bring to the live videos Nick does. Stay safe Dee.

[@DeeNimmin]

Depends. Are you still scratching?

Dee Nimmin Was not actually expecting your reply, wow. Hello there

[@rohittnathpurtra6605]

Hey ur rich person u have ur separate room for live and money for light, but normal person how to try

[@DeeNimmin]

Open the window and use the sun, it's free. Use a white sheet to hang in front of the window if you don't have a white curtain to soften the light. Anything large and white can be used to bounce the light around. You don't have to spend money to make your set look great, you only need to learn how light works and how to manually set up your camera. White sheets, white poster board, and white walls will all reflect light. Get creative with it.
