I think I've given up on becoming a professional UA-camr, but videos like this are still pleasing just to watch and learn from.
There is always more to learn
Ther is no giving up.. It's all about learn and try to technique
If you ever see this, you're brilliant and one the people who aren't forgetable. Someone who actually knows what they're talking about
Thanks for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
@@benjohnsoncreative thank you Ben, very professional work. Have any suggestions regarding eye irritation? I am a teacher and I have gone through my scripts thousands of times, but lighting just gets on my nerves and lose the plot. What's your view on natural light?
Hi! I’m your fan since yesterday. I saw few of your videos about lightning because I’ve been a UA-camr for the last 10 years and I’ve never been able to nail the lighting set up. My room is super bright, but still I thought I needed more and more light. I was so jealous about videos that look like yours 😂. So yesterday I clicked one of your videos (by accident) and I couldn’t believe when you turned off all the lights and started adding just a little bit of light here and there for a beautiful result. Finally decided to give it a try with the light I have ( my ring light mirror for makeup😅 and a floor LED lamp) I was so scared about having the ISO of my camera so high compared to how it usually is, I set it up on auto ISO, because I have to move the camera around very often. Later I checked and WOW just WOW seriously I almost cried, not kidding😅. My son was also impressed and said it looks way more professional. I just wished I saw your video years ago. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU SO MUCH! ❤ I also saw your free camera settings guide Thank you for that too 😊
Thank you for taking the time to tell me this! I’m really glad my content was so helpful to you. I also have a lighting course if you’re interest: www.learnvideolighting.com (code CREATIVE20 saves$)
This video was very helpful because I just bought those two lights- excited for my setup😊Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Super useful as always. You get such gorgeous colors and clarity on all your images, and it doesn't appear that you use filters on your lens (unless I'm wrong!)
Using your methods and tips help me out a lot. Thanks Ben for all your tutoring and learning your knowledge is well appreciated 👍👍👍
Great to hear!
Hey Ben, great to see fresh videos👍. Just wrapped up first series using your content. Thank you. Turned out great.
Starting final series this weekend.
Great to hear!
Really well laid out! Super valuable stuff, Ben 👏
Glad it was helpful!
Clear, concise, and helpful. Now to put your tips into action. Thanks! 👍🏾
Glad it was helpful!
I'm from Brazil and there's no one here who explains lighting like you. I'm watching all the videos! Around here, I can't find a lot of the equipment you recommend, or they're super expensive. I currently have a YONGNUO RGB led stick, which is very strong, and a Softbox without control. Could you tell me which other lights I should complete to better the main light, the fill light and the rim light?
Great video! Thanks so much 💡
You are so welcome!
Thanks my friend. Another great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Game changer! I thought it was my camera, turns out, my lighting was just goofed up. This helps tremendously!
I’m so glad! I’ve also got a lighting course that goes even more in depth on these topics if you’re interested: www.learnvideolighting.com (code CREATIVE20 saves $$)
Hi there i love your videos!! What do you use to hold your tube backdrop light?
Thanks for this video
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting!
aye good vidoo dude, im gonna save this one for later!
Thanks! 😎 glad you found value in it!
Great video as always. I checked out your website but I need more hands on. Do you provide a zoom session to help with my current setup?
I don’t currently but I do have a lighting course: www.learnvideolighting.com (use code CREATIVE20 to save 20%)
the educator. love this guy, thank you
Whoa what’s that photo paper stand thing you have for the backdrop??
nice video thanks for the effort but where can I get the back drop and what you hang it on ?
This is a video of how I put it together: ua-cam.com/video/AmF5mp4SGAE/v-deo.htmlsi=UIVm3TaHk7lyDYJ4
This is the backdrop: amzn.to/47IAQx7
This is the roller: amzn.to/3OPZCm3
Which would pick between the godox and the yongnuo light?
What adjustments, if any, might be needed for two “talking heads” in a video?
This video should help: ua-cam.com/video/m70UInZKJjU/v-deo.htmlsi=0wlzdTu19wsmOxQq
what camera stand are you using?
Thanks for the great tips!
What do you think about the background furniture? I have 3.5m room width and behind me I have white Ikea furniture storage units and shelfs in White, also the wall is white. Do you think I can make it work with RGB light or the light will most likely get reflected out?
Does any of that furniture have glass or a shiny/reflective surface?
@@benjohnsoncreative Thanks Ben. Its just Ikea Kallax system with square white boxes .. I actually just moved it now to my studio room and I placed some items inside it. Pointed RGB blue towards it from one angle, doesn’t look that bad. Its of course brighter than a black braun or grey cabinet.. but you gotta work with what you have.. right? 😅🙈
Now its kind of partially hidden behind my vertical recording as I am planning my videos for Reels and Shorts… I have to raise it up with one more level so that audience can see something out of my backdrop. Btw, I am using sigma 16mm f1.4 and its fabulous on Zve10
Hey Ben! Thanks for the video!
Is Godox TL30 still relevant in 2023, or there are some worthy competitors now?
I still use and love it! I’m sure there are others that are great but I love the quality and price of the godox
@@benjohnsoncreativei have that, but what could be wrong with my camera settings, WB? the K?
how did you create that window blind pattern on the wall @2:30?
I have pretty good lights but I always see my face too red, what could be the good WB or K?
' What color backdrop do you use?
Could you say what setting son sony zv-e10 to use for lighting like in this video? I have similar softbox but struggling with camera settings. This will be for talking head videos.
Settings will depend on a lot of different factors, but I believe I had mine set to:
ISO: 200
SHUTTER: 1/50
APERTURE: 1.8
WHITE BALANCE: 5600k

@@benjohnsoncreative thank you I jus twatched it :) and for profile picture s-log PP7 will be same?
Hello. Do you think 2 such softboxes would be suitable for portrait photos? Will they be able to brighten up my 20m2 room? Is it worth buying them for studio photography?
Lighting is all experimental - I’d say it’s worth a try!
Nice❤
Thanks 🔥
u r a living W. may Jesus bless u bro fr
🙏🏼
I got dope friends 🖤 cleeean!
Thanks bro! 💡
Can you suggest me a camera?
Basically, I want to use this camera for overhead short.
Product unboxing and reviews.
1. Sony Zv E 1
2. Sony Zv e10
3. Sony Zv E1 mark ii
Note it: I never used before DSLR / SLR / Mirrorless Camera.
I’d go with the ZV1M2: amzn.to/3qT75cf
I’ve got a full review on it here: ua-cam.com/video/bZ1pHmIsYQQ/v-deo.htmlsi=GEOr6oYFlsttNNC8
Yessirrrrrr
Thanks for watching!
The problem I am having is that I am finding the lights are too bright. Even on the lowest dim setting. I really want a light where I can dim it really low for almost a creepy effect. A lot of the lights on the market now are BRIGHT. Which I understand but it would be nice to have some options!
You could adjust your camera exposure to make any of the lights darker
❤
Thanks for watching!
It seems that no matter my light setup, my iPhone always shoots video darker than the reality. Anyone have any suggestions?
It’s most likely auto exposing if you are using the native camera app, I’d recommend downloading the free Blackmagic camera app, and manually adjusting exposure
❤
