15 seconds and I already like it

[@mikekillagreen9432]

Exactly

[@JustHarryOBrien]

“Stitched together in post” .. ahh so some filming wizardry I’ll never get to learn for free “..This is how you do it in Premier” Oh my God you absolute legends.

We aim to please. I personally will find any way to avoid using After Effects, so i'm glad this worked out. -Robbie

[@jacobchristianglover3655]

"And the Best Dramatic Actor in a KZbin Tutorial about Lighting Exterior Night Shots with One Light Horror Movie Award goes to Mr. Robbie Janney!" Team Shutterstock (Robbie, Logan, and Todd) ROCKS!" Another excellent tutorial Gentlemen. Be well and stay encouraged!!!

[@shutterstocktutorials]

Oh God, I didn't prepare a speech... I'd like to thank everyone who helped me create this video... and my Mom! Thanks, Jacob! -Robbie

[@jacobchristianglover3655]

@@shutterstocktutorials Keep up the excellent work Robbie!!!

[@ScareTimeStudios]

I agree with this comment! Can I hire Robbie, on the cheap, to be in my forthcoming horror film? 🎥

[@ScareTimeStudios]

Now this is how you deliver an instructional video!! Loved this scene set up! Now idk if I’ll ever use plates, but you inspired me with your step by step instructions, and the whole video just looked amazing! Bravo!

[@pawelecphoto]

I'm a photographer, but these tips were super useful. It's essentially just like light painting / masking & editing in PS, but instead for video.

[@TheElisseee]

this is an amazing way to introduce a video. A way of storytelling and how to make a viewer stay and watch! loved this

[@andrea1955]

that intro was sooo gooood

[@StriderBLH]

Excited to watch more of your channel: Just a brilliant format and pacing.

[@cavangriffin1514]

[@MoreFSL]

That intro was incredible 🔥 🔥

[@edwardv365]

what a great way to teach something without the audience falling asleep while watching

[@AllThingsFilm1]

What a great video. This approach to shooting can save us indie film makers SO much money.

[@JBscripts]

This is the exact tutorial I was looking for. Thanks so much! 👏👏

[@Soupcan13]

Ha! Super smart layering your lit elements. That's a trippy way to pull that off

[@boniman]

Color grading is Hollywood like!

[@kenmyyy]

[@mikekillagreen9432]

Thanks for this

[@NallahBrown]

Super dope intro man. WoW!

[@HarveyCarrollJr]

Car lights and a sheet or shower curtain as a defused... Simple clothes hanging rack can be the frame to hold the sheet/curtain can be bought at Walmart. If you need it to be wider then PVC pipes can make the rack taller or wider...

[@UglyMcGregor]

Best KZbin channel.

[@stoichiometrydudes4565]

[@ClaudioFontanin]

Awesome!

[@TheoBEfilms]

that intro is so good

[@AdlerHW]

Awesome intro!

[@jankmedia1985]

Alright, this is weird. That guy talking looks like the little kid from River's Edge and Near Dark. I can't be the only one who thinks that. Awesome video, super inventive way to go about it.

[@healthymedia8101]

Nice!

[@Adammedias]

Bro I died during this intro 😂😂😂

[@HaroldEscalona]

👏👏👏

[@limitlessvibes2207]

that was great ...

[@johannacarter]

This was an amazingly instructive video. My only question is what camera settings have you used? I'm trying to shoot something at night and I'm doing some rehearsals of sorts, but I'm not 100% pleased with the image no matter the placement of the light in the shot. Can you help?

[@richardtorresmagic]

LOVE THE VIDEO ! how long did you record each plate for?

[@ohsokitty]

I have some questions. I’m shooting a short film and I’m using the Arri lighting kit. Do you think I will need a defuser?

[@RtothaO]

Great video! Does anyone know if it's possible to do that stitching together in final cut pro?

[@StepbyStepPhotographyandVideo]

Nice!!

[@SalawuIbrahim]

I liked this video just 20 seconds in. I came to drop this comment knowing it's about to be the bomb!

[@musabinho]

brilliant

[@kurttomlinsoncompositions1067]

Big brain time!

[@warriorclassmedia]

Thanks

[@KodeName.X]

what camera was used for filming and lenses ? thank you x

[@key_qt8039]

what editor you usually used

[@fouryearproductions]

What kind of light is that in the video?

[@Noealz]

great tip

[@kelaliel]

nice tuorial, but at 6:30 we have a reflection in the window door of the car.

[@leenylee3140]

What is the light that you used called?

[@MaximusMediaInc]

Which Blackmagic camera are you using in these shots? Ursa mini? Blacks are crushed, I can't dig in to see.

[@alberthan1370]

What light did you use? Can you link it?

[@bg2907]

Which camera are you using??

[@WhiteWoodEnt]

You should've kept the softbox on the killer subject.

[@yo-rl7kv]

nice

[@vegardpedersen]

Did you use the 300d's full power. I am going to buy the 120d ii. Would that be enough power, or do you need something like a 300d? Great tutorial, I learned a lot! :-)

[@shutterstocktutorials]

Hey there! We were actually using about 50% output for the 300d on most of the shots. I'd bet you'd be able to get away with using a 120d! -Robbie

[@vegardpedersen]

​@@shutterstocktutorials ok, thank you for answering Robbie. By the way I loved the tip with the car to take one shot with the light close and another one with it out of frame, bet still shining some light to the scene. I have always just taken a clean plate with the light off, but then it doesn't seem natural and you can see the mask. I will definitly use that trick next time!

[@pixelpearlproduction538]

Well played intro ... I can see the feature already 😂😂😂

[@blobcityrecords8918]

Your blacks is crushed to the max. but really good tutorial on moving the one light around the scene and using masks to portray more than one light source!! Good job!

[@the_the_real_paul]

I thought homie was going to bring out like a flash light or a work light, I totally have one of those huge light at my house laying around 😂😂 nah but I understand and this was very useful

[@one-we4md]

Name camera

[@PARISONFIRE]

i dont see any artifacts in the blacks here how did you do that, normally youtube compression kills the blacks ... mh :)

[@homopunk84]

moral of the story? goto the hardware store and buy some super cheap flood lights so you don't have to screw around with a huge amount of masking work in post. You can move your camera and you can also film cut aways and pick up shots and you know... actual film making stuff. Instead of being tied down to one shot. Multiple takes for the same shot and spending a huge amount of time in post simply because you cant spend 20$ on some flood lights from a hardware store.
