Got a few requests for this one! What other lighting tutorials do you want to see?

[@esshangogoi3556]

would love to see a tutorial on how to make the best use of natural lights :D

[@BeckiandChris]

We did a video about window light a few years ago! Still stand by the placement 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGrchZKemJimeLc

[@esshangogoi3556]

@@BeckiandChris Oh yup! got it- Thanks a lot!

[@Creek5Romeo]

how to make a snoot on a budget?

[@KaanSenel]

Would love to see a video on how to expose log footage when you use that kinda dark setting. I have some issues with getting noise in my shadows when my setting is a bit darker

[@TheCannabisConnoisseur]

My doctor wasn't a model, doesn't fly a helicopter, and doesn't fart while making jokes about it. I have brought up these concerns to him and asked him to step up his game.

[@conor7283]

You can never beat a good Becki and Chris lighting video

[@BeckiandChris]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Wow, I laugh snorted way so much for this one. The end of your videos are some of my favorite parts 🎃

[@BeckiandChris]

Hahaha thanks friend!

[@AaronTremblay]

OMG Chris said my favorite words: “inverse square law.” I’m so glad you guys talked about softness changing by the relative size of the light to the subject, and inverse square law! I try to teach new-er photogs and videographers about that but don’t have NEARLY the reach you do!

[@Kerry0101]

Lighting now in all your one room things will make me look behind you. It is good to know that your making sure what we see in a video is not just one subject but encompassing the entire background.

[@josh_versal8180]

I love you guys your my inspiration back here in TANZANIA,AFRICA.

[@TABO744]

SO THESE GUYS ........... LOVE LOVE...

[@anoddviewcreative505]

Brilliant. Thank you. You saved me some expense. You remind me of my son and daughter in law. ❤️

[@cryptidcutiestudios]

Y'all do the BEST lighting tutorials and I love to see them. The diagrams of how you set up your lights is SO helpful

[@BeckiandChris]

Aw thanks glad to hear it!

[@KevinAnggara]

Always love your content!

[@saskelee]

2:40 chris lookin gat you like "that's my girl, Go forth and be great"

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

🔥 I just had to say that this thumbnail is on point! Who else could not resist? 🔥

[@PostColorGear]

I like how you guys have the mic coming up from the bottom. I do the same exact thing. Just seems to work better, for me.

[@BeckiandChris]

Yess I find I’m able to get it closer that way vs from the top

[@dbrh404]

2 videos within a week *HELL YEAH*

[@clintonherring]

I was looking for something like this and it's synchronicity that you guys put up something about planning shoots

[@realchristopher4334]

😂 🤣 🤣 🤣 I love the chaos and 'natural' humour! My humerus is fine, thank Gad! I randomly clicked on videos because I have no life and... Whoa, I am hypnotised by this one! Humour aside, this one mentions a few things that other videos do not. Maybe the power of two heads are better than one, if used wisely. Clearly shows that either one of the two fills in what the other one misses or forgets.

[@danyj.mendez4745]

Great chemistry…Made my day…

[@drewgriffin143]

I wish i had photography friends to hang out with and try these setups. You guys seem to be my only motivation to keep going with photography and videography.

[@parveezsaligh9248]

HOLY CRAP THIS MILATONE THING IS SOOOO AWESOME!

[@SabrinaLatoya]

We’ve been blessed with another video this week!!! 🙌🏾

[@jbasproductionseditorial1287]

Milanote... JUST what I needed! Thanks B&C - you two - the greatest!

[@OffbeatWorlds]

I always love the outtakes you show at the end of your videos, you two are so funny and cute together.

[@HeyItsLilox]

I literally walked into my new studio trying to figure out how I was going to light up my next video, and here you both are. Maybe you can help me figure it out by watching my previous vlog?! Por favorrrr! D:

[@AhmedGhazzaly]

I am Egyptian and I love your content very much

[@Kindness5819]

Y'all are killing it.

[@ahponte]

I suck at lighting. Thank you for this video from one of my favorite couples on KZbin.

[@user-ft7mo5tb2x]

[@gismoo77]

Awesome. Thank you so much guys.

[@hellokirk]

Stone Cold Stunner at the end lolllllll

[@AimaOj.]

Finally! I've been waiting for this tutorial like for ever! I had to go search Google and try my hands on stuff but it didn't work out exactly how I wanted it to. Thank you, Becki and Chris! 💜

[@JoshZlaket]

You guys are a god damn delight. Fantastic video, as usual.

[@BeckiandChris]

Thanks Josh!

[@TypeSC2]

I honestly just love your guys chemistry! I have and will continue to watch every video ever from you 2!

[@CDReimer]

A timely tutorial. After I spent a month working with a 4K timeline in Davinci Resolve, I thought it was time to switch from the 1080p Panasonic camcorder (fuzzy quality) to the 4K iPhone XR (sharp quality). Now I need to change the lightning since it's too bright for the iPhone. Thanks for the info!

[@ShootPicture]

very helpful missy and mister

[@bastian.koller]

Amazing tips 🥳❤️✨✨

[@ShootingDave]

MAH GAWD you two are so much fun to watch!

[@BrianSellers]

Deep Thought for the Day: "When does a well-lit dark room... cease to be dark?" 🤔🤔 Love it, guys!

[@BeckiandChris]

[@theshopper6902]

Always fun to watch, you missed at what f value the video was shot.. But guessing from your older videos 2.8?

[@keithchester4425]

Genius!!

[@Theconsciouscrystal]

Love love this video and resources! Can you do one that uses less lights for a smaller space and for someone who is a beginner and doesn't have all of this equipment just yet? You are appreciated!

[@MadeByJoey]

You are both so smart and able to articulate complicated concepts easily. Thank you!

[@matthewarendse1988]
