Thank you for a way to SAFELY play with FIRE! Great effects there by combining the two different types of fiber optics.

Very cool:)

[@rajeshpetkar9598]

Best 👍

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Thanks ✌️

[@DJ_George]

I just wonder how the model kept standing there in the same position within 60secs without moving, as he gets moved he gets blurred, I can see the subject is sharp in your final photo, how did you do that though? Thanks

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

The model can move around a little bit, because this is a silhouette it really doesn't matter that much. If I were to illuminate the model then the main thing is that I only illuminate them one single time. Check out this tutorial it might be helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4iphYOCbNh6bbs

[@deborahgarafola7415]

Great video but how do you make the DIY thing you put the gels into? Is that another video?

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Those are the DIY Screw on Color Filters you can get them here: lightpaintingbrushes.com/collections/screw-on-color-filters/products/screw-on-color-filter-diy-blanks

[@davemelling9520]

Inspirational as always Jason Have you any alternatives for the gels. i cannot find anything similar here in the UK. FYI the ling below to Amazon says Amazon in the USA cant get hold of the Papr Stret Plasics ones.

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Sorry I don't have any alternatives for the sticky back versions. ANY color gels will work though, I just like the sticky back ones because they hold their place.

[@LRose-72]

Awesome video what is name of neewer wireless camera trigger for 6D mk2. I can’t find in link in description. I need trigger.

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Its the FC-16 here is a link: amzn.to/3WTX60C

[@LRose-72]

@@LightPaintingPhotography ah thabk u so much but my camera is 6D mk2. Does it working for 6D mk2?

[@theonetrekkie]

Great tutorial, so many plans with this info in mind. Was wondering if you could get more specific with the placement (arrangement) of the gels in your DIY filter. I get the concept but yours achieved such great results I want to make sure I can replicate this. Close up photos maybe go the gels in the DIY filter? Thanks!

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

There is no particular way that I arrange the gels. Each DIY version of the filter I make is unique and to me that is part of the magic of Light Painting! I am confident that if you give it a go you will get some awesome results!

[@Lightpaintkid]

1:42 will show the overlapped gels placed in the screw on filter. Maybe start with half and half, then add a third color, have fun

[@Photos_on_metal]

Hi, how close need to stay behind object?? By the way cool photo

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

I stay very close to the subject, sometimes touching them with the light.

[@Photos_on_metal]

The object need be in dark clothes as well and outside need be dark as well?

[@shoop4040]

Question for you- What size lens do you usually shoot with ?

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

the two lenses I use most often are the Tokina 14MM for wide shots and I also use the Sigma 24-105.

[@sachinkhare1688]

Jason, it was really cool I am going to try this. My only question is how do you hold the light or fiber optic that it does not illuminate your own hand. Is there any specific tip to hold the light. ? ? And yes Happy New Year. 🙂

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Using the Universal Connector it directs the light into the Fiber Optic, There really isn't any light spill to worry about, especially with the black Fiber Optic. You can get a little bit with the White Fiber Optic but I have never had a problem showing my hand in the image.

[@sachinkhare1688]

@@LightPaintingPhotography Cool, got it. Thank you.

[@kashishimotohoward]

Out of curiosity, are you using the Rokinon 14mm for all your outdoor images?

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

I do for a lot of them but not all. I also use the sigma 24-105.

[@agamanikundu4006]

I am from India. Please suggest how to build this ? Is it affordable? Light painting tool

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

The Fiber Optics are a difficult one to make. Sorry we don't have a DIY solution for this tool. LightPaintingBrushes.com ships to India.

[@fabishots6486]

Cuantas fibra óptica trae?

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

A lot, lightpaintingbrushes.com/collections/fiber-optic-light-painting-brushes

[@Jimmy_Cavallo]

💥💥Wow, Jason. This effect is pure 🔥🔥. Did your model have to stand in the exact same spot the entire time.?? 🪓

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Thank you! Yep, you want the model to stay in the same spot and try to remain as still as they can for the entire exposure!

[@Jimmy_Cavallo]

@@LightPaintingPhotography wow, that’s a rough one, thank you . What was the total exposure time here?

[@whitefatdude]

Hello lightpainting brushes, im an eager follower from Norway and i have a question for you. Im trying out lightpainting with my canon eos R and having some trouble. It seems impossible to do it with mirrorless camera. it capture just some small bits of my lightpainting. Im using " Bulbmode , f8 and iso 100. Do you have any experience with mirrorless camera?.

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Sorry I don't have any experience with mirrorless cameras. I don't think that there should be any difference on those settings though.
