Lighting For YOUTUBE VIDEOS On A BUDGET

[@Andresvideo]

I've been thinking about this setup for years! Finally I see someone braver than me trying it! Great job!!

[@DisRizTVMedia]

I totally Agree.. Lighting 💡is very important when filming! That was the hardest, but fun-est 😂 class when I was Cinematography school! Great video Peter! I really enjoy watching your content! Thank you 🙏🏽!!

[@tombuck]

Really love that little Nanlite! 💡

[@StupidRaisins]

Thanks Peter. I love on a budget videos. They really help get people creating out the gate.

[@akshilmehta9698]

This is going to help a lot of people. This is the content dreamers need to achieve their dreams!

[@PeterLindgren1]

I hope so, you don't have to have the most expensive gear to make videos!

[@akshilmehta9698]

@@PeterLindgren1 True that. You just need ideas. You're doing a great job man. Lots of success to you!

[@Madddy68]

best KZbinr ever. Thanks for sharing. Greetz from Switzerland

[@thomaswindfeld728]

Great! Thanx for showing the exsamples for bad lighting and not just the goodlooking setup;)

[@sherriforeman1174]

I appreciate this video. I am just a beginner, and thinking about the budget to accomplish the videos I want to create is important. Thank you very much.

[@jaleelbrown4056]

Love how the channel is growing, found this guy at 9000 subs now he's over 500k. Keep making good content.

[@cooksmith8309]

Thanks. This really helps. I’m just starting out and definitely need budgets ways to build my channel.

[@PeterLindgren1]

Thats awesome to hear, hope it'll make your videos better!

[@SeanJoynt13]

Good luck!! I’m also just starting out ✌️👍

[@ElusiveFrame]

The 45 degree angle was a great tip! Thanks to you, I can now use a single light in my videos, while the second one can light the scene behind me 👍👍

[@peterlubega5562]

This has been my favorite channel so far

[@MADpack]

You inspire me every day for making better videos in a budget.. Last video took me 12h to edit 3 minutes of video. Big hug man

[@TSBilliards]

Just got into videography, and always have issues with lighting. These certainly giving me a clearer idea or path of what to do or buy next. Thank you! :)

[@MarioSoMedia]

Great video Peter! For many starting out, budget lighting options are good to have! There are a bunch of cheap led lighting options available out there.

[@Neerajuttwani]

Thanks, Peter, I was about to buy some lighting equipment for my upcoming talking head type videos, and bammm you dropped this video. This will help me a lot in making the right choice.

[@PeterLindgren1]

Good to hear man, hope you'll feel more confident now man 👊

[@Neerajuttwani]

@@PeterLindgren1 Yeah, and that too with more bucks left in my pocket 😁

[@SidsDrakon]

This was awesome. I need to start... i have most of the basic things i just need the motivation. Watching your videos helps a lot. Because I enjoy your content amd its fun to hang out with you. Thanx for everything.

[@GeorgiPetrov]

Love your videos, Peter. As a photographer, I am not having any issues with my lighting but still, struggle to get my lights correct for my channel. Very helpful and will be pushing to improve.

[@RealTalkswithTiffTone]

Watching your videos has upped our quality on a small budget. Amazing content!!

[@iamandycozzens]

Peter! Love your videos and I have a recommendation. I see tons of videos talking about lights to buy but no one ever talks about good value/quality light stands or C-Stands or the differences. And which ones to buy to offset the load of a bigger light. No one else I've seen really talks about this stuff. I would love your opinion. Thanks man, keep doing your thing.

[@sweet4nice2003]

Also no one ever talks about brightness as in some lights come with up to 100 power on the dial and how different is that with output of the constant power of a SL 60W & a AD 200 let's say if u gonna use it at 40% and the SL at 70%...what is affected in shooting? 🤔 For my worry u get people explaining expensive lights but only because of wattage difference not brightness 🔆.!

[@slaysick1424]

Maybe coz they are all doers and not thinkers

[@TeamBryGuy]

I was just talking about cheap lighting ideas with someone and then I opened KZbin to see this. Good timing, Peter! Sending this off to them!

[@YouNeedABento]

I love how you showed, in real time, how each of the things you mention looks!

[@jayfitvlogs3729]

Man your videos are so interesting to watch. I haven’t missed any of your videos since the time I had subscribed your channel.

[@geertpieters6769]

Thank you Peter! This was the video I was looking for! Been searching like crazy for a decent explanation on light for video setups!

[@brandoncharleswhite7893]

My favorite studio on youtube

[@youssefsamir6030]

Hey please what is the name of these thing you plugged into the tube 6c in the minute 3:40 so you can put it on the tripod . And what is the name of the 2 red and blue led light that you use in the background. At the end thank you for all of your videos you make me love b roll and cameras and shooting and everything think related to the camera

[@afonso_sj8939]

Pretty sure it's an arca Swiss tripod plate

[@JussiAlexander]

That flashlight thing looked surprisingly good with the reflector! 😁 My first video light that I tried was a 30€ Ikea light dome with a really sketchy jerry-rig thing.

[@pranitsonigra8007]

I totally agree with you Peter because as a beginner youtuber. But can i use bulbs which we use in our houses or are there any other options for reflectors. And could you give options for getting bokeh video on smartphones

[@francescobaistrocchi]

Great video Man ;)

[@ArthurMuteesasira]

Really love your content! humorous and informative!

[@hedgehogenglish]

Thanks Peter! I've been setting up my lighting recently and have become really interested in it. I need to stop buying things for now though because my next investment will be in a macbook! :D

[@mesterarts3677]

Man, the last 2 days Ive spent on researching the solution for me in a home studio. Really you could save me those days, if you post that sooner! :) thanks

[@adityarao2974]

Loved the video!! This will help me become a better filmmaker so thanks for that !!!!

[@subalstha]

I really love your work sir and i learn a lot from your video. I started doing videography that i learn from you thank you so much sir for this kind of videos.

[@PeterLindgren1]

Thank you so much, awesome to hear that you're learning stuff!

[@subalstha]

@@PeterLindgren1 i started youtube channel that all i learn from you sir. I watched all your videos about how to make cinematic video and all i use is mobile camera. Thank you a lot sir for this kind of videos and still want to learn more from you sir.

[@SeanJoynt13]

This 🙌 !! I love it, man! I just use a single light bulb behind a shower curtain...works great!

[@CharlieAshman]

I LOVE this channel SOOO MUCH!!!!!

[@PeterLindgren1]

:D

@@PeterLindgren1 lol🤣🤣🤣Great Advise.... And love the accent!!!!🤣🤣🤣

[@manojmohan7264]

This is my new favourite channel !! Could you make a video about making a portable light that can produce soft light ?

[@macfanguy]

Thanks Peter! Loved your thoughts on the subject, it is not easy when you get started! :D

[@DavidRoadilla]

Congrats sir Peter, been here for a while, your channel's performance went up very fast, more power, God bless ❤

[@WazaARG]

I'll use this technique!! Thx Pete

[@PhillipSkraba]

Great stuff Pete! I have one of these on my "to do" list with an super cheap setup I always used to use, but the torch is a great move, love that 🔥

[@PeterLindgren1]

Thanks dude! Super fun to try things out!

[@shanesilba9423]

Sweet! I just learn lighting mind blowing! Next videos all light off with a flash light and a bunce light

[@ZJYOUNG1182]

Enjoyed the video! Very good tips on lighting.

[@villevaltonen-]

Thanks for the video. Doubting between forza 60 and forza 200. Maybe forza 200 too much power for my talking heads. Can you mount parabolic softbox 90cm onto the forza 60 with the bowen adapter?

[@Quantum_TV]

How do you avoid grain with slog? Your grading is literally perfect.

[@yousseflamnaouarl9662]

you have the most dope Background on youtube ,those lights are lit 🔥

[@fearghalhughes]

really helpful, esspecially with the intensity of the light

[@ZACKFPV]

Peter.. what are those blue and orange light bars? please explain about that too.. :) thank you

[@TheAxomiyaLoraHimangshuBaruah]

At first thanx for sharing this valuable information with us. I have been looking a lighting setup with minimum requirements and you solve the problem. Sir i please tell me that can I get a professional video quality just like this video with Canon 1300d with the basic kit lense. Please please reply. I have been facing problems with this issue.

[@TheBassLizard]

Really amazing use of light!

[@Hititup2121]

This video was real helpful for me as KZbin creator. I’m looking to upgrade my lights gear . I just subscribe to your cool channel . I hope you have a great day

[@wjlacey]

BRB I'm just gonna go and step up my lighting game! Some properly useful tips here!

[@FedericoCecchetto]

Great videoo!! I will try with the lantern too

[@Ktb_Contract0r]

How do you recommend people on a budget handle editing their footage? Do you or did you calibrate your laptop's monitor? Or do you use a separate standalone monitor?

[@macvisuals3226]

Thanks Peter, Your inspired me with your B-roll.

[@johannesbgonzalez]

Hi Peter, I think you should turn the key light a bit so you dont get the reflections in your glasses and then fill the shadows with a reflector on the right side of your face.

[@fabianpetrescu]

Hi Peter! Thanks again! Which aperture do you usually keep your camera at? Thanks!

[@alliedmanticoregaming]

Wow, I’m super late seeing this, but seeing as I’m trying to find suitable lighting so I can record my face to put in my videos, this is very interesting and I might have to try this out for myself.

[@waynosfotos]

Hi Peter, like the vid for low budget options, but looking for a lighting kit that has a stand, softbox, and rechargable facility, (all in one) for on location photo/video. I have been looking but is so confusing on what is what, they mostly don't give specs. There is led panels and compact blubs and the aputure/ godox/ manlite, options. I have a reasonable budget , so not a real cheapie, but a limit of 1500 usd. Can you please reply or do a vid for people looking for portable pro on location lighting kits? Cheers

[@HYROX-HUB]

Nice Video. Would you be able to provide a direct link to either the NANLITE 90 CM or 60 CM, when i click on the links in the description I currently just get a long list of items and can't find / tell which is the actual light. I'd ideally like to buy a package with the light, stand and umbrella attachment as well. Grateful for any direction you can give. thank you.

[@TheUrbandilema]

Tanx bro..just shows u dont need an amperture 100d or nandlite...i just soft box lights now...

[@PeterKae]

Peter‘s Set Up: Some really high quality Aputure lights ! My Set Up: Using the street light which shines through my window. Need stop recording at 11:30pm ..

[@PeterLindgren1]

Or invest in some lights ;)

[@supra2k8]

Imagine if someone did that and the city upgraded to LED street lights... freeeee upgrade lol

[@moneytri2525]

Back in the day I used the construction lights I got from home depot. you can make a three point light kit with them lol

[@tombuck]

Money Tri that’s reminds me of old school Film Riot 😎

[@sidewayz24]

Because of companies shutting down I tell tv personality’s all the time to go to the depot and get the clamp lights and white foam board for a bounce.😀

[@DustinHarrelson]

hahah I've done this as well!

[@xraydog2011]

U ,my friend are a big buck saver !

[@kenspo]

As a Focus Nordic Ambassador, I use Nanlite..hehe..But good video as always! Quality content! :)

[@kenspo]

But back in the day, I started with some cheap working lights from Clas Ohlson with a pillowcase in front of them..haha

[@evanmantziosphotography6722]

Thank you very much for the tips!! ( i already use DIY lighting but i got some extra info 👍👍 )

[@zacgrimaldo]

How do you feel about the Godox VL series v. the Nanlite Forza series? Pro or cons? I'm deciding on my next set of video lights...thanks!

[@mujihuz8433]

Can you also do a video for microphones as well? (BTW Good job mate, I've been with you since 2k followers)

[@PeterLindgren1]

Thanks! Will try to see if i can make something similar!

[@Sakixaashi1]

thank you Mr Peter i'm from Somalia

[@PeterLindgren1]

You're welcome dude!

[@syedjawad_edits]

love you man!! I was searching for this!!!!

[@DimitriAbrazard]

Peter is the Godox SL 60 be enough light to record some broll sequences at 100fps ? or should I get a 150 or 300w ? Thank you !

[@Shemene]

Hi peter thanks for the tip guy I just wanted to ask if the 90mm nanolight comes with a light stand ?

[@jamelahalmalki6938]

Woow, this is very helpful 💁🏻‍♀️.

[@benjaminjoost-meyerzubakum4897]

Cool idea. I have to try that but I would love to see the result with a beginner camera. I am an Canon shooter and as you might know the low light performance on the entry models is so shitty. I never rise the ISO over 400 and the lowest that I have seen in you video was 800 but for the budget version 2000. Which is not a problem on Sony pro cams but on entry......?

[@gatf.01995]

thanks man, for that cool video

[@creatingvfx]

previously you showed godex sl60w right ! there are many reviews about loud noise from fan is it so ?

[@AmmirulHarith]

Thank you for sharing this cool idea ♥️

[@davideguirald2820]

desde colombia gracias hermano. jah bless

[@TheMicky1028]

Hey Peter...what do you think about Flolight FL330AW??

[@TheOriginalMigz]

Have you walked away from Godox completely now? You had/have the Sl60w with the P120H .. I have that too for my Product photography ( continuous is better for me) .. What made you walk away ? (if you have) ... Just wondering if I'm missing out on something ...

[@ajayjose2771]

Thanks a lot man! I'ma try this out!

[@hafidhrattamimi7141]

Thanks Peter, it's helpful !!!

[@LookitsTook]

Was working on my lighting setup today too 😂

[@BackmansGarage]

😀😀👍 Antother awesome piece of content!! I got some content ideas for you that i dont think anyone has done before.

[@AlexandreYAMADA74]

How do you call this kind of honeycomb thing that goes in front of a softbox? What does it do and do you know if Nanlite has one for their 60 soft box? I just bought the whole set last week and I thought it came with but no. Thanks Peter!

[@PeterLindgren1]

It's called a grid! What it does is basically focusing your light tighter rather than spreading it out. I use it almost all the time on my bigger lights when I'm shooting with them!

[@VirtusLenon]

Thanks a lot Peter!

[@BetroKhon]

Wow .... incredible

[@sumitmoolchandani4977]

Can this DIY light (torch light) be used in for shooting B-rolls?

[@wilgiefortis]

IDOL! From Las Vegas but I’m a filipino!

[@antoinernb9398]

Nice work

[@solanum7359]

love the content! Peter question, how would you edit a video into super 8 quality? simple plug in or hardcore editing?

[@NateKillian]

This dude is blasting out content

Gotta forge while the iron is hot they say 👊

[@deepdhillon9191]

Peter, you've got some good stuff man ! keep it going, and what would you do with a ring light and apurture mc light????

[@PeterLindgren1]

Thanks man! If i had that you mean? In that case i'd use the ring light as a key light and the MC in the background!

[@deepdhillon9191]

Peter Lindgren thanks Peter ! I’m gonna try to make my first you tube video / vlog cause you really do inspire !

[@stosans]

I think you're German 😊🍀👌🏾. Cool video. That's like 1 year in a professional school in one video 😅.

[@saskelee]

would be cool if u got a switch for all of your back lights

[@cellographybym.marcello1755]

How can you shoot on 2000 ISO without getting a single grain / noise on your video? I would really appreciate your answers. Keep up the good work man!

[@legacyfitness7469]

I’ve tried the flashlight method but I get a lot of flickering and light waves... any advise on how to get rid of those?

[@callumwear4766]

Anyone have any advice on light dome size? What difference does it make? Is it just the range in which it diffuses the light?

[@PaulFeinberg]

If you are on a tight budget and can't afford a nice background with lights you could just Blue or Green screen an awesome one in.....nope never done that one before 😂 Great video dude.

[@PeterLindgren1]

Haha true true! Still need that key light though :D

[@PaulFeinberg]

@@PeterLindgren1 Of course Key Lights there are no way around. You need something...Sun, LED, Flashlight (thats a new one lol), etc.
