How to Light a Night Scene | Cinematic Lighting

[@NasserTone]

Man! This is seriously the best cinematic lighting tutorial on KZbin. So informative & explanatory. It deserves millions of views!! Keep it up! 😍🔥🔥

[@BradyBessette]

even 100k is insane, thank you tons!!

[@sonbik.makevideo]

totally agree

[@seppukusushi2848]

How to do Cinematic Lighting: Start by using actual Film instead of Flat-Looking Digital Cameras. Then, quit using dark filters and color-grading to hide the UNCINEMATIC look of Digital Cameras.

[@walkie1985]

You are most definitely filling a gap in KZbin right now, I expect this channel to GROW considerably. Fantastic 'how to', a real look behind the scenes. Just found, subbed and excited

[@BradyBessette]

No way, thank you VERYYYY much.

[@walkie1985]

​@@BradyBessette 100% Your video has a depth of learning to it that very few have. Understandable from other creators and I still enjoy their content but I think they're still trying to appeal a certain type of audience. I think there's a gap now where people like me who took up videography from KZbinrs want to pursue it professionally, and now we're craving substance rather than being entertained (your vid was still very entertaining btw lol). If you made an hour long vid I am in for the hour with a pen and paper. You made me re-film a scene from this video alone - great stuff!

[@saitamasensei4931]

I like when he said "don't worry if you don't have...." it's really motivated me from impossible to possible. Good Teacher.

[@BradyBessette]

Thank you !!!

[@manukalias]

Brady, You introduced yourself as a cinematographer, I would like to add, That you are superb creative too. Everything explained so very well, you assuming we students who want to learn would need those extra details also shows your kindness to share. Thanks man, it 3:25AM and it was worth the watch. 😍😍😍😇

[@BradyBessette]

Thank you much!!!! Honestly saw only the first line and was like oh no someone is trying to degrade me, opened it up to see a pleasant message!! Thank you tons

[@ShreeNation]

I made a career shift during the pandemic from a teacher to a first time content creator interested in filmmaking, and I'm so grateful that you've put out content like this for free! Subbed!

[@BradyBessette]

Thank you so much! Congrats on the big change and I wish you the best with it

[@dustinbyerley7226]

Your footage and color grading looks better than anyone I’ve seen on KZbin and I’ve been in the industry for 22 years. Congratulations man.

[@BradyBessette]

that is the biggest compliment thank you

[@CarltonDaily]

I bever comment on ANYTHING...and I've worked in TV for ages (talent) .and the hardest shots to get people to explain are night scenes with actors...but I wanted some extra tips and ideas.. and I must say. Thank you for being so articulate and succinct. So well explained . Thanks and when you get old and bored you should teach film school.

[@BradyBessette]

Thank you so much that’s so nice.

[@NMAH24]

Best way to explain lighting. Not just telling every light but showing it practically. Best!

[@BradyBessette]

Thank you so much!!

[@leonardoguebara6984]

Superb tutorial, Brady talks softly so even for non native english speakers it's easy to understand. Awesome, thanks Brady!

[@airtime23]

10:22 I know it's only logic to do so but it's good to hear it from somebody who seems to understand what he is talking about. Because the mind sometimes keeps asking if it's ok to move the light. Thanks :)

[@BradyBessette]

It’s always ok to adjust!

Wow man! Excellent job explaining yourself and just taking what can sometimes be convoluted when it comes to lighting, and making it very simple to understand! Have you ever thought about doing a masterclass on lighting and any tips and tricks you have learned over your years of cinematography? I guarantee you many, many would sign up! There is so much valuable information you have regarding lighting, and other things regarding cinematography, it would be awesome to see that put into some sort of masterclass!

wow.. loved this.. I was trying to create a night scene moonlight scene for stopmotion, I know it's not quite the same, everything in miniature and using puppets not real life subjects.. but lighting issues are the same right.. I wish someone would do more advanced lighting for animation..... I loved how you lit this scene so effective, lovely ambiance, so clever...

[@BradyBessette]

Thank oyu so much!! I wish I knew anything about animation, but I'm sure the lighting can be similar!

[@CristianBernal]

mini masterclass!

[@BradyBessette]

So do I make a major masterclass??

[@CristianBernal]

Brady Bessette you could probably even sell a course! It’s great to know this info when you are just starting out. I would just add the industry standard gear (maybe just mention them and show a photo of them), so when people do have budgets they don’t have to rely on a homemade 4x4 diffusion, and feel confident about the gear they need/is available. As a fellow DP for commercials and music videos, I love what you’re doing as we are never done learning. Props man!
