World Class content available for free like this makes me feel guilty. Thanks Cooke Optics Love From India

I agree some real "behind the scenes" shots would have been a plus, but her explanation was so thorough it doesn't seem necessary.

[@tqaproduction]

Please more videos like this!

Wow, learned a lot about lighting in four minutes. Really cool when she explained about light balance during the product shot.

[@VideoUpskill]

Commercials behind the scenes videos are great content. Thanks.

Thankyou! ❤️

[@gfxfilms2012]

This is awesome

[@bingofilms4885]

Great video. I sometimes wish the prospects/clients I talk to would see videos like that... They would be more aware of the work that goes into filmmaking and making an image look great. That you don't whip out an iPhone X, one person and shoot the thing A to Z in 15 minutes and you're done.

[@edgarbleikur1929]

OMG but you do bro! It's sah easy!

[@MrKukuku22]

Cool stuff

[@darrylsmith3102]

She's DAMN Good!...

[@recipiend5711]

I have learned

[@edgarbleikur1929]

How many takes? I reckon 20 lol bet she didn't eat a burrito for months after that!

[@jaegermah]

First off, absolutely no one drinks Smirnoff straight.. unless they're an alcoholic. Secondly, you're telling me there was a glass with cubes in it waiting for her when she got home? Does this chick live in the Arctic? Should have just added some 'fresh out the freezer' type BRoll and made it believable... Ridiculous storyline aside, it's shot / lit very nice. Kudos to the DP and lighting team.

[@MeAlexSenna]

Great breakdown but the frame itself is very unimpressive

[@8020Alive]

To you perhaps. I find it stunning.

[@muazified]

the commercial looks very amateur not worth that long interview just a waste of time

[@Paul2]

Muaz Tellawi let's see your work

[@Households1234]

Boring!!!

[@SanczykLucas]

Terme Bergamo You're lost it seems. Funny cat videos are over there!
