I can never get enough of these lighting breakdowns. Lighting is one of the most important aspects of filmmaking. So, to see how DP's work out how they light various scenes teaches us how to approach our own lighting scenarios. Keep these breakdowns coming. They are priceless.

This is great. For people who are just getting into lighting, there are things, many or few, that they can learn. I’ve been watching bts’s of feature films since the 80’s and I’ve always loved it. But getting a bit deeper into setups and the “why’s” of those setups is definitely why I enjoy videos like these. Please keep it up. Thanks, Vee!

It doesn’t look natural IMO. It looks too “lit.” I wonder how much power it would take to do this looking more natural. I love the light reflecting off the pool water though. That was a beautiful touch.

True . But it's something that I love. Every frame lit like a photograph. In recent times, South Indian movies are going for this kind of look. And yes, everyone has their own liking.
@prayforpeace22042 жыл бұрын
It would take more diffusion. But it's also the colors used. Extreme color separation often looks "lit". It's often easier to achieve a more natural look by moving the colors a bit closer together.

@AutoFOCUSED.2 жыл бұрын
@@meltysundae4540 unless it's a bare bulb, lamps are typically soft. And you do realize light bounces off walls and ceilings which softens light right? That's why overly directional light rarely looks natural. Why do you think in cinema they use those huge 12x12 (often even larger) diffusion panels?

This also got me thinking I should stop focusing on wanting to do everything from shooting to cinematography etc and focus on my writing and the stories i have in mind because there are people that are just better and more experienced that I could hire to help me tell me stories. At least now I know enough of the language and have some experience to know how to talk to these experts and know what to ask for. That's really the goal here for me, not living in scarcity and thinking nobody would help me if I don't learn it all by myself. Nonsense. When I write good stories and find a way to get a budget, I can seduce/hire a lot of these people to help my vision and do good work.

It is different all over the world, but communication is key and if you want to communicate with the crew in a very clear and understanding way you need to know the language on set. Once again thank you. This is my lighting master class now.

On Point Lighting. The dolly in to reveal the fire place is flawless. I like the director's choice to see the ripples of the pool and your team really made the effect work. I watched a video on the Aputure 600x Pro and the Light Dome 150 paired and it looked huge, but naturally it's footprint is minuscule in a space as large as what you'll had to work with.

This was a great breakdown! Might be my favorite yet! On the mention of sheers... we're shooting a space that needs sheers but doesnt have any rods to throw them on. How would you guys tackle that without drilling into the wall? Currently looking into commands strips with a curtain rod
@aputurelighting2 жыл бұрын
Definitely the right idea, just make sure to carefully remove the command strips. If it works with the space, consider tension curtain rods (with caution to the walls). In a pinch, you can try to paper tape the sheers directly above the windows, just make sure it isn't gaff tape that will peel off paint!
