I have never in my life seen a boom fail so catastrophically as it did 7 minutes and 10 seconds in. Glad you’re OK.

[@MariusMilinski]

i fell so hard for this :'D

[@AnthonyHadleyJr]

Won’t lie, you had me in the first half 😂

[@CristianOriakGaming]

The way you saved that child from a burning building at the end was not something I was expecting but something I didn’t know I needed!

[@ManojSarlaGupta]

What I learnt from this video... (1) just wet down the road. (2) Use warm practicals on the house or neon on shops or car headlights to see the reflection of these on the wet road. (3) Wash the front of house and trees with moonlight with big lamps far away to receive the equal moonlight everywhere on the front of the house and trees and not making any hot spots if you keep those big lamps near the house/trees for getting moonlight. If possible shoot these big lamps through sim branchloris to create some shadows on the house to create light... shadows...light... shadows (light...dark...light...dark). (4) Salt and pepper the shot with low key lighting (light...dark...light...dark). (5) If budget allows then backlight the image with moonlight and haze using big HMI lamps (6) Use colour contrast with moonlight and warm practicals. (7) Have street light with sodium vapour or warm tungsten for colour contrast against blue moonlight. (8) Uplight the trees with warm lights from the front. (9) Inside the room install the lights over the window to accentuate the moonlight coming through window to reach the talent on the bed and creating an edge on the talent. A warm practical (table lamp) could be switched on for colour contrast. (10) At night/dark scenes always have an eye light.

That Ending was CRAZY!!!!

[@fps_juvan]

he now regrets doing the ending, because we watch till the end.

[@irelanddaynight]

That ending, can't believe he actually did that

[@stevenkralovec]

That part toward the end was insane 🤯

[@globalistproduction]

I always watch your entire video! Simple fact is: you just speak your heart. That human part is worth watching, in my view. Beside all the wisdom you share.

[@mull3r]

Yo, last tip was game changer

[@TheFollert]

WOW the end! real gamechanger 🤯

[@DanielCastillo-mp4hh]

I always knew there was something in the wetdown of the asphalt or streets everytime i see it but i though it was just me how lights reflected and bounce out of it BUT NOW HAVING A PROFESIONAL SAY IT...OH BOY ...TELS ME I WAS MADE FOR THIS thanks mate appreciated highly

[@robikang4856]

Glad to watch your videos every time :)) thank you very much for these!

[@awakencollective1639]

Ending was worth staying for. Patrick you killed it again

[@AntigravityFilmsABQ]

One of the best, insightful and most relevant lighting tutorials I've seen on YT. Good stuff.

[@flightographist]

Yabba Dabba Doo! You do...good work.

[@DavidStrib]

I can’t believe he did that at the end

[@NoahFallis]

At 7:22 watch the plant to the right of the speaker. Don’t blink.

[@uroshavalon]

You made me understand the light the way I start to feel it more and more. Amazing teaching, really.

[@pedromilagres1632]

no way he did that at the end

[@ImranStBrice]

the real gem of this video is in the last 15 seconds, trust me

[@MountUpMedia]

The ending though 🤯🤯

[@Zhanningleng]

I hope to go out for a period, during the daytime low -cost lighting method, thank you!

[@Ali3n_DNA_Films]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience, I’ve learned and applied what you’ve taught and it has increased my productions exponentially!

[@Alexie]

Thank you for these videos. I love you

[@Dave-Sleurink]

Its crazy how much information this guy gives from 2 cinematic shots. Its so learnfull😍

[@drewh79]

Your dog at the end was doing some funny stuff

[@Alexie]

Wandering DP gives the best advice I have ever heard in my entire life at the end of the video

[@coreylamont3580]

Love your vids, was wondering if you have some concerns about A.Is implication for the field

[@gabrielaaronmoser-diary]

crazy ending

[@Otanru]

OOOH SECRET ENDING!

[@jesusmeneses2054]

dont ever stop doing this daily series

[@MattyBeavs]

holy SHHH the ending!

[@scottievee7467]

Did you see that? That was crazy!

[@ASHFILMS1138]

It was magical that you said " ...cause I don't want to go outside..." when I was just thinking " As soon as this video is over, all the way to the end over, I have to go outside and I don't want to..." . Spooky man...Otherwise the end kinda ran out of steam, which was jarring contrast after the scintillating dynamism of the preceding content.

[@devincorboy8638]

The end changed my marriage forever...

[@Dvisionzfilms]

something cryptic happens in the end!

[@akelindstrom1786]

you remind me a lot of the cinematography database guy

[@ottermoore6484]

Woah, you tried to pull a fast one on us. Thought that we wouldn't notice the aspect ratio change up.

[@tomtomtheninja]

Quick question! What tool(s) do you use to annotate on your breakdowns?

[@LifeofSamSafi]

can you a breakdown of a budget film?

[@flochfitness]

I can’t believe you had a heart attack at the end are you OK?

[@smallbar2012]

I can't believe that we finally got a face reveal at the end of this video!

[@inhalants]

What is a wetdown Edit: Oh I see. You mean soak the subject in water so you get better reflections. On productions do they just mist it so it doesn't pool? How much of that exterior do you think was moistened for the shot? I'll make sure to hose down my protagonist every time I shoot in the dark.

[@Eddiesilution]

Been trying to join the patreon group, keeps saying serve not available, could this be because I am in Nigeria?,

[@lerecklessbadger2411]

While I'm not a Patreon supporter just yet, I'm curious about the benefits of larger LED lights such as the NANLUX Evoke 2400B. Any insights into their advantages would be greatly appreciated!

[@andrewkwon2468]

What are your thoughts on Sora ai?

[@harikrishdop]

Did you just.... Oh shit... What did i watch 😮

[@stanleydonovan425]

omfg why did it have to happen at the end? Couldn't it just be like any other video you made?

[@AnthonyHadleyJr]

Luckily that baseball didn’t break your window til you were at the end of recording this video 😨

[@of1300]

This is the most boring ending I have ever seen in a yt video. Priceless! But you have to watch the whole thing through to understand what I mean.
