Awesome work man. Thanks for the breakdown. Great job keeping it natural. It’s a fine balance

Great breakdown, looks very natural. Lots of great decisions here. I’m learning and building my outdoor lighting kit now. Would love to see more like this! Maybe a 2 person interview? Subscribed!

What monitoring LUT did you use and what’s your color grading process?

@jjenkk 4 ай бұрын

Phantom LUTS for the Fx6. Great start, then you adjust to what suits!

@simvid8107 2 ай бұрын

Out of interest, what was your grading process on this? Straight SLog3 to Rec709 conversion and then adjustments or did you tweak your curves and Roloff etc?

@jjenkk 2 ай бұрын

used Phantom Luts as a base, adjusted primaries + curve.

Sometimes I don't mind shooting above the eyeliner if I can lose part of that sky. Then I can take it out of play when exposing for the subject. But I get it, it all depends on the logistics and the look you are going for.

We need more of these. I love these kind of lighting setups

sure was! love a bit of 4:3 ;)

Really great breakdown man. I need to show this to some clients who just think stuff like this is done with just natural light. "We are just shooting outside, so we just need the camera..." Ugh. You've lit this so naturally that I can understand why people can look at this and just think you just put the camera on the tripod and just started shooting. Great work!

Looks like it could be a whiskey ad 😂 Clean frames! I think even more neg could look good.

@jjenkk 4 ай бұрын

Haha, he definitely has that look! Yeah I only had an 8x8 neg and in the wide that’s as close as I could get it ;)

@jamescook4322 4 ай бұрын

What was the light plugged into? Did you have a generator or was there power near by?

@jjenkk 4 ай бұрын

Hey James, the light had 2 vlock batteries powering it. We only had small batts so the light could only put out 60% max power, but was more than enough for what I needed. We did have an Ecoflow delta in the car but this worked.

Thanks for posting the BTS. I know everyone is going to hate me, but... I would really like to see more depth of field from the 75mm angle. It seems like the opportunity to have a picturesque background was just kind of lost.

@kaito2005 4 ай бұрын

How many of you cap wearing DP's that film themselves in motherfucking 4:3 are out there!? Also, why are you not talking into a lavalier mic while holding it in your hand? haha I'm just fucking with you brother. The shoot looks dope! You do you :)

Lol, I randomly saw this in a Facebook Group last night and was quite impressed. Now I see the YT video from the BTS. Crazy :D

Looks great Kris. Love the way you removed fixtures at the end & then did a side by side. Really shows the subtleties of it and how you can sculpt a really nice looking exterior.

i love this but somehow the face look flat, the guy with the green vest shows more volume, maybe there the key is brighter right?

Cool little breakdown of a scene we find ourselves in a lot. It sows how a good but subtle setup just gives it that slight edge between okay and good. Looking at the before and after you really have to look to see the differences (as they are subtle) but you can FEEL the quality difference! Keep this kinda content coming as that’s stuff people can execute easily and elevate their work!

@jjenkk 4 ай бұрын

exactly! :) its the small things that make the difference! thanks mate!

First of all, this was great, and thanks for creating this and sharing your knowledge! I’ve got a hypothetical question here for ya: Let’s say you don’t have the budget for a scout day, but you know you’ll be shooting an exterior day scene like this or similar. Maybe you’ve got some images from the location manager or something, and general ideas of how you’ll be covering this hypothetical outdoor scene. In that scenario, would you assemble a gear list that’s similar to what you’ve chosen for this video, or would you maybe have a few other silks or something on standby? I know this is a broad question, and it’s always dependent on what you have access to or budget for. But, you did a lot of great work with a few pieces of dynamic gear here, and I’m wondering if that gear might be your recommendation for a go-to exterior lighting scene for a single subject or perhaps even a scene with another subject. Thanks for entertaining the broadness of this question 😂 I’m an indie filmmaker just looking to add some stuff to my kit. I’ve got a 4x4 frame, don’t own any silks or anything just random “prosumer” products that have helped me along in these kinds of shoots (talking head and what not), as well as access to relatively high output LEDs similar to the Nanlite you’ve used here. Could go for some odds and ends to help me shape light for future exterior scenes and wanna make a good decision. Anyway, thanks again for the helpful video. Love this kinda stuff.

thanks mate! yes this kit is usually my go to for most exteriors with just myself and my ac/assist. keeps things manageable with schedules etc. when i have a bigger crew i may use more things etc. it all depends. its a good base kit, but as for diffusion i would recommend having a 1/2 and full stop aswell as the 1/4 strength so you have options :)
