CINEMATIC LIGHTING IN 5 MINUTES! [Using One Cheap Light]

[@JorisHermans]

Color grading this is tricky because of that fluorescent light. It's all about finding a balance between it looking somewhat natural but still getting that gritty greenish/yellowish fluorescent look... I think it turned out pretty good. What do you think?

[@GaryCunninghamyouareenough]

The grade looked cool man 🤟

[@JimmyOlsson]

You did great! Really moody and cinematic! 👏😊

[@colinelliston]

Nice tutorial!

[@multishrimpstudios]

Hello! could you make some tutorials on how to do color grading without using log footage? most cameras dont have the capability to shoot in log, so I would really love it if you could do that.

[@unnikrishnan8437]

That was super impressive and your hair looks nice! Waiting for more tutorials like this! 🔥

[@AARJason]

Thank you so much for making this video! It changed the way I think about lighting inside and gave me some great ideas.

[@JorisHermans]

Most welcome! 🙏🏻

[@tnkshaxin7675]

man just did almost a whole tutorial through the mirror

[@powdermuaythai]

great video, good example of work smart not hard.

[@JaiQuinnn]

Wow, I'm early! Glad you're giving more lighting tips! Pretty sure that this shot could feel amazing after some small sound design like a running shower for example. That's one way of making the mist overlay work as well if you don't want to actually create steam in the bathroom while filming. Great video! Easy setup, good tips! Thanks Joris ✌

[@DavidGodibadze]

What LED panel is that? You happy with it?

[@JorisHermans]

Amaran P60X. Excellent 👌🏻💥

[@Nour-jh9iq]

How many watts for this led panel?

[@surimakhloga30]

What white balace did you set on camera?

[@jessetimmmiller1870]

Very cool! Thanks, bro! Might be cool to throw up a flag for negative fill on the shadow side of your face. Great look!

[@JorisHermans]

Yep, was thinking the same afterwards! 🙏🏻

[@henakos]

First! 👋

[@housermousemedia]

This was super well explained. Sometimes I run into hickups trying to light darker scenes, but I think I'll nail it every time now🤘

[@molisc]

what LUT is that?

[@JustinEspejo]

Learned something new today! Thanks so much for this!

[@JorisHermans]

Welcome 💯💥

[@smithclark15]

How do you “expose for the LED light instead of the fluorescent light?”

[@dopedrip3491]

How you reduced exposure is it done in camera ? As im new can you please explain it

[@BEATNORES]

Gracias!! Siempre me pregunté como hacían en las películas para grabar cuando había muchas lamparas de por medio en la escena.

[@prathmesh5758]

Can you tell for smartphone?

[@derricksmith3138]

What cheap light/softbox did you use? It doesn't look like the ones in your links...

[@JorisHermans]

No idea, it's a nameless panel I have but I used the softbox from my Amaran P60x panel so it's about the same size as that one...

[@tinyniall]

Do you use the Zoom Recorder for all your audio? or was it just for in the bathroom as the camera was behind you?

[@JorisHermans]

For the studio shots I use an Oktava 012 plugged into the Zoom.

[@tinyniall]

@@JorisHermans so can I ask why don't you go directly into your camera?

[@dancrosby6091]

What color temperature was your key light? Thanks

[@JorisHermans]

4000K

[@aaphotofilm]

Brilliant video joris. Wow really impressed with that cinematic look. Can I ask what LUT you used? Was it the one that come in davinci resolve? That look reminds me of the movie Joker. Remember the scene where he looks in the mirror and puts his fingers in his mouth to force a smile. Exact same look in green lol

[@JorisHermans]

Yes exactly! 😄 I used Alister Chapman's Blockbuster LUT for S-log 3. I think it's still a free download on the Sony website.

[@aaphotofilm]

@@JorisHermans Oh wow really? free, thanks for letting us know, i will have a look, its so joker like theme, i love it

[@dancrosby6091]

Simple but Very helpful. Just like I like it 👍

[@GartheKnightReturns]

I go potty in my bathroom. But when I do, I do it cinematically. Actually this gives me some ideas for filming a diorama I’ve built for for action figures in my garage at my workbench.

[@JorisHermans]

Man, I even dream cinematically... 😅

[@GartheKnightReturns]

@@JorisHermans Most of my cinematic journeys to the restroom turns into a Michael Bay film. Explosions, people running for their lives etc.

[@GaryCunninghamyouareenough]

Thanks so much for this Joris - such a cool idea. My bathroom has a similar fluorescent light so I can't wait to give this a go. I hope you're feeling better man - oh, and the hair rocked 🤟 #whereisjoriscap 😂

[@JorisHermans]

The hair is finally at a length at which it doesn't have a life of its own 😅

[@GaryCunninghamyouareenough]

@@JorisHermans 🤣🤣 I know that feeling 🤦‍♂️😂

[@burnedmemory]

how much lumens does the front light have ?

[@M_freedomOfSpeech]

I love your explanation, good ideas, I would have liked how to make that greenish color, awesome!

[@bricksblocksandmocs]

Thank you so much for this, really really useful stuff🙌

[@Alex-Visions]

Is it possible to get the lut somehow? :)

[@HuFilms]

Nice one. I'd like to see how it would work on the opposite side pointing back towards the camera and lighting the left of your face. Could be worth trying.

[@JorisHermans]

Gonna give it another try with my Canon M50 and all the tips from the comments 😎

[@elgringoperdido.]

Interesting tip, thanks Joris :)

[@thestarkiller01]

A short horror film I'm developing has a shot with this exact composition, so this is immensely helpful. Thank you.

[@exitdoorpic]

Nice brooo!

[@laybackeasy]

This is fantastic! I never thought of doing lighting this way. Thank you for posting, I'm gonna try this technique aasap!

[@jonathangordon4742]

Can you make a video or short on how to shoot mirror videos like this or specifically a bathroom mirror scene or shot ?

[@Exec310]

Thanks this was super helpful

[@Wanderlusthere]

Great explanation ❤

[@sintoniacardiaca]

Wow very cool trick, thanks for sharing. I will definitely try it. Wondering how you managed your audio in the bathroom? It is crystal clear. Didn’t hear any echo at all, no bouncing sound?

[@JorisHermans]

Straight into my zoom H5 recorder... 👌🏻

[@ranam7677]

Damn this is cool

[@markuskomulainen1387]

Nice short tip 🔥

[@dasha_petrova808]

Wow , looks great and pretty doable ))) I will have to try it for myself , thanks for the video !

[@JorisHermans]

Thanks for watching 🙏🏻💥

[@drrohanfonseca]

Dang Joris you look so different without a cap! What were the camera settings before and after? Did you just change the ISO?

[@JorisHermans]

It was time... 😅

[@JorisHermans]

I adjusted the variable ND filter to lower the exposure. Settings stayed exactly the same. Not sure what they were actually 🤔

[@drrohanfonseca]

@@JorisHermans Cool thanks!

[@rick2bees]

We schakelen nu over naar onze reporter ter plaatse..... #journalist 👏😆👌

[@JorisHermans]

😅 it' feels weird holding the recorder like that but it does make it easier to record sound on the go 👌🏻

[@miguelrios747]

Yes, I do know what you mean😏

[@JorisHermans]
