You know you're passionate about lighting when you recognize the grip equipment out of frame before you recognize Cindy Crawford in the ad.

[@frankoi4]

jajaja! yes man!!

[@emmettfrancis]

hahahaha

[@emanuelkristian8432]

sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid forgot the login password. I love any tips you can offer me

[@schuey323]

I can't adequately express just how valuable your content is. This is how it's done. Sheesh, so good!!

[@ashley.caldwelldp]

Well said!

[@BobAquatic]

Honestly with Covid times, I am High Key all day. No chances on dark contrast stylistic right now. Gotta pay the rent

[@projectederecerca27c]

I feel you...

[@410films2]

This lighting breakdown is exactly what I'm looking for... so many videos telling you to bounce light here, diffuse there and fill whatever else but no one actually breaking it down in specific examples and showing you why it is done one way and the problem solving that would go about if the circumstances were different... A+ and I look forward to watching more of your content #Subscribed

[@ryanmargetts]

Your channel is the most consistently educational and no-fuss guide to cinematography I've ever seen. Thank you so much for providing this value, you're the best.

[@petardraganov5694]

I love your breakdowns but I adore those jokes you just trow in the space and go away. Wonderful content.

[@IGORTSARENKO]

there's nothing better than new episode after a hard working editing MF day.

[@stu9000]

Love these videos. Just a note on that final shot - looking at the shadow under her chin, it looks like the bounce must be up high - several metres in the air.

[@kuunami]

You were right about that defense. My man pretty much dived on the ground.

[@nicklong7442]

You've got some of the best Cinematography info on KZbin. Seriously I've learned so much from your breakdowns. Always great stuff.

[@ashley.caldwelldp]

Mate these break downs are awesome. So much value from each one without the fuss and some absolutely golden humour. Had a bit of a chuckle at the project name as well 😅

[@tongascopetongaisango8691]

Okay, Cindy Crowford Bro! and i am Congolese living in South Africa.Very insightful video still.

[@dustinschmidt9695]

He's obviously joking when he says he's "not sure who this is".

[@capturecorpmedia]

Hahahahhaha

[@dylanproctor9635]

caitlyn Jenner lol jks

[@nikitavedenyapin5994]

Belive me he’s not.

[@faderhead]

@@nikitavedenyapin5994 He later says Cindy. So he obviously knows ...

[@chiokehart-kelly3481]

It's hard to tell if he's joking but it's still hilarious every podcast. Remember when he said the big bang definitely didn't happen? The only thing we can say he knows for sure is The Framework. Everything else is auxiliary.

[@DodaGarcia]

I understand that shot of Cindy Crawford was ridiculously expensive to pull off but by God is it worth it. Could easily be a poster, it looks drawn by hand.

[@mitchellpayton9800]

you are amazing will be utilising some of these techniques on wedensday, for an outdoor shoot (more of a "guerilla style" low budget thing, but i'm gonna make it happen) don't stop doing this stuff, PLEASE

[@Pierorocks]

Dude for real, you are so invaluable for us aspiring professional DP's! Thank you

[@mitchmedmedia5386]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge so openly. It’s been very helpful

[@fanjan7527]

I noticed behind camera light, probably an HMI, 4k? Filling shadows, probably along with an overhead bounce. You can see the highlight in her eyes and the shadow on her shirt behind her hand. Kind of a photography thing, fill your shadows with a light behind camera.

[@JimRobinson-colors]

So I guess the "I am not sure who this woman is" was a subtle joke, because later you called her "Cindy". Which was my guess ( Cindy Crawford ). Some of the rest of that commercial would be great to see the breakdown as well.

[@TheAnimistOfficial]

thought it was Caitlin Jenner..

[@keith-knittel]

Just found your channel, these lighting breakdowns are awesome! Love the series

[@dominickmorales130]

Great Video...Thank You

[@cherneu5052]

See you in the next one! Have a great Christmas Patrick ☺️

[@dna8269]

Brilliant breakdown!

[@HonestArttsEntertain]

dope video.

[@TheShinyMachine]

I love the filename "Dumpster Fire".

[@aspiresaadi]

Always happy to see a wandering dp breakdown show up in my feed !.. do you have a link to the Super Bowl ad ?

[@joelmulder]

Is there any way to keep all this bounce and diffusion in place without spelding a small fortune on c stands and grip arms? Any suggestions?

[@8lec_R]

Holy f*** this looks incredible

[@karvinfernando3782]

Great stuff as always! Would really appreciate if you could do more high key breakdowns :D

[@YeshuaReal]

My favorite channel!

[@charlesnetzler2262]

Damn, so much value in these videos.

[@B-Moye]

I mean breaking down defense against Kylie was a great place to focus to be honest. If he tried to actually guard him he probably WOULD have gone on the fake haha 😆

[@ifilm6746]

wow.. i like the way you are explaining.. also curious to know what gadget you are using to draw on screen.

[@theAzimAzimov]

4:53 so he knows who Cindy is, right? Or is she just some Cindy to him that the narrator referred to? 😂

[@florianmoritz2993]

yep, good one, nothing surprising here:) keep going mate, we need it!:)

[@AlSuChess]

Great Breakdown! Lots of light bouncing off places we can't see.

[@TrevorGay]

Thank you

[@onboardv]

Awesome, thank you!

[@1panomotion847]

Where can we see the full video?

[@jefftabb]

thank you!!

[@emmettfrancis]

well done!

[@OmarSherien]

I've been watching your videos for a while and u keep mentioning "the framework" I have no idea what this is, I kept searching all your videos for an answer but nothing, so if you talked about this framework thing before could u tell me?

[@ratedcarlos]

Amazing content!

[@arbabraiyan8200]

she is cindy crawford

[@RobyDavis]

Ha! Nice troll.. I really was thinking dude I’m old. Way to light up the comment section LOL

[@ACDC.]

Very good!

[@brandanhaskell1524]

Would using a mirror board through diffusion be better than white bounce for this situation?

[@javebjorkman]

2:16, he’s going against Uncle Drew, bro, give him a break Lolol

[@OussamaAityassin]

❤❤

[@thomasterminet]

You can see the bounce fill reflected in the car window..

[@Praxiszooms]

thanks :)

[@doylelacrua]

Well, that's Cindy Crawford.

[@raylavers4216]

i like down and dark ;)

[@freshinho80]

This is the best fucking content on this fucking platform. fuck.

[@MrInsider33]

I know we are all grown ups here but how he made the "talent" circle at 4:10 two times around her breast just caught me off guard hahaha

[@screenboiler]

What camera do you use to film your KZbin videos?

[@organismx]

hey , cool stuff as always 👍🏽👊🏽. I am not sure how yo respond to people requesting videos... so no need to take this in a wrong way., Would be cool if you made a video about diffusers, flags, muslin, half grids, cine foil , ect... Just a suggestion..

[@sebvontas9446]

It's Cindy Crawford

[@caitlinwhitaker1266]

He knows, lol. He says her name later in the video.

[@chiranjeevis8634]

first comment! yay, big fan btw.

[@jaredking232]

you rule

[@edgarricardopadillanates4160]

I was told that cinematographers use one fixed aperture for an entire movie. If it's true then a rule to follow would be to adjust light intensity instead? I appreciate your advice.

[@matthewchute5514]

Dude, you are the fucking man. Thank you for all you do!

[@desmondmacnamara6068]

Dumpster fire?

[@LinemanUniverse]

Not sure who this woman is just dropped my phone😵

[@dathofilms]

Did anyone else notice the huge white board in the car window reflection? I think sun is bounced from the camera right.

[@tallguytrav]

I think what you are referring to is just the driver's side window.

[@dathofilms]

@@tallguytrav yea, that could be. not 100% sure though.

[@GabrielAlves-lp1qr]

@@dathofilms you can take a better look at 2:41 when she gets out of the car

[@BrandonWells]

yup. its more sandwiched than talked about in this video

[@eicarshiva]

[@benblenner]

dumpster fire

[@ILaxative]

You just have to know that’s Cindy Crawford lol

[@DodaGarcia]

I 100% thought it was Caitlyn Jenner

[@ILaxative]

@@DodaGarcia lol wow!!

He's joking, right? Cindy Crawford.

Dude how old are you? You don’t know this woman is?????
