Dropped brightness level of lights, increased exposure of camera and raised RBG lights off the ground to sit just behind me. Incredible how much those three small changes have boosted the quality of my video. Background colour pops and I stand out even more while being well-light still. Super excited to feature the new setup in my next video/stream. Thank you for your great work Ben!

OMG THANK YOU!! I have literally been searching all week for this information!! Question what should the White balance setting be for this type of setup? Idk if it is my exposure or white balance but I’m noticing my lights do not look as colorful in camera as they do in person. I believe I have my WB set to Tungsten and my ISO is 100 my blue light looks more white than blue and my pink light looks like a faded purple. I’m going to definitely try your exposure tip. I just wanted to know how the white balance effect everything when using RGB lights as well. Thanks for teaching me your videos are helpful I dropped out of photography classes after two weeks 7yrs ago lol it was too complex but people like you are the best instructors for people like me. Your content is very much appreciated!! Thank you!!
@benjohnsoncreative
@benjohnsoncreative 4 жыл бұрын
Wow thanks so much for your kind words! Yes white balance will affect the color I would turn off your key and fill and rim lights and leave on the rgb lights. Then watch the camera and adjust the white balance until it looks how you’d like. If you end up at like 4600k or 5600k or whatever it is, then set your key and fill and rim lights to that

The concept of building the lighting as you go is somewhat to a music producer/arranger goes through. From silence, to organized sound. Sequences, etc... its important to break things down this way so we understand. Great tips, and thank you!!!!

Ben! We tried to do the same with the lights you recommend (that are not the same you are using) but it doesn’t work. Because the minimum brightness is too bright, and all the background gets a lot of light. I guess you are using the falcon eyes, but they are too expensive, what else can we try?

@BuildingApologetics
@BuildingApologetics 4 жыл бұрын
There are 6 solutions to this problem you can try. 1) If you have enough space, move as far as you possibly can from the background. This is ideal anyway for a good feeling of depth in the image. 2) Change the angle of the key light so that it is either higher or further to the side of you. Making it further to the side will create more shadows and may be a really interesting look if you like it. If not, then another light or reflector can be used as a fill light to make the image more flat. 3) Cover your key light with one or multiple sheets of white fabric. This will make the light a bit more soft and more dim. Use more layers to make it as dark as needed. You can tape, clamp, or use any other method you want to attach the fabric. 4) Use negative fill to shape the light. Just search negative fill for examples on how to use it if you need. You can use blackwrap or black cloth for this to focus the light. 5) Edit the colors in post. If you are using an advanced editing software like premiere pro, you may be able to restore a lot of color by messing with your color correction. Of course this is less optimal than getting it right on set. 6) Change the lights. If all else fails and you want the colored background, this may be necessary. Of course, maybe you only need to change the RGB light to a brighter version.

Your channel has opened my eyes to details when it comes to lighting placement and creating KZbin content the right way that I didn't even know. I'm still working on buying more gear, but I want to make sure I take advantage of the gear I already have. One of the lights I own is a Yongnuo RGB Wand Light. I can control the color from an app on my iPhone. You just helped me crack the code with the settings though. I still have a lot of trial and error. But wow!!! You've just given me such a boost and I can't thank you enough! I definitely subscribed and I'm looking forward to seeing more tips and tricks from you as well.

How far away do you think the video camera should be from your face or body ? I’m using iPhone mini 12 to begin my project? Thank you 🙏

Thank you for sharing this! Things in life have been in such flux, causing me to delay production on @engageshow time and time again, and I had forgotten all about considering manipulating exposure on my camera. Thank you for reminding me of that and for showcasing a couple different examples juxtaposing different ISOs vs. power/intensity from the lighting itself.

A clear succinct video which I have bookmarked and will come back to again. I recently got studio lights for my channel and made a video about my KZbin equipment, using these techniques and linking to this video of yours at the end. Would appreciate any tips for filming in front of a window (where my plants are), if you get the chance. Many thanks.
