    The more you work with film, the more you realize how much there is to learn. In addition to what I've mentioned in this video, remember the importance of:
    - Location (a good location gives you a more professional look)
    - Good audio (invest in a quality microphone. I recomend a lavalier)
    - Bakcground (should contain depth and perspective, without being distracting)
    - Be creative, and try different angles, focal lengts and movements with the camera.
    - Don't be afraid to fail. I'll never be 100% perfect. But you'll always learn.
    I used the Canon 700D for all the shots. The Sony a7s were used to film behind the scenes.
    Pro tip: Make a custom picture profile with as low contrast as possible. I go deeper into detail in this video: • Top 10 UA-cam tips - ...

    • @EskildFors
      @EskildFors  8 років тому +1

      +94Keegan You can achieve pretty decent quality with today's iPhones. Though, a DSLR will give you a lot better depth of field. But, as I demonstrate in this video, you don't need a very expensive one to get a nice look =)

    Nice video! One detail you didn't mention though: in your "ideal backlight position" she is standing in front of a white building, that is hit by the sun and acts as a giant softbox. Without that, the background to face exposure would not be as balanced. Either the background would be way to bright or her face too dark. The "white wall" trick would make for a good tip, too. I guess. You don't always need big expensive lights, if you know how to model natural light. Cheers
