I've seen a lot of comments regarding incandescent bulbs and wanted to address why I used them. 1. Incandescent bulbs have a perfect rendition of skin tones 2. When you can find availability incandescent bulbs are very cheap. 3. Comparably cheap LED bulbs from Ikea or anywhere else will 100% have a worse rendition of skin tones 4. LED bulbs that are comparable to the skin tone quality of incandescent are about four times more expensive if not more usually. Quick note: You can't tell a bulb's quality on skin tone with just your eyes or a CRI score. Lastly, I understand a lot of you live in places where you cannot buy incandescent bulbs anymore. I plan on making a more in-depth video on the different types of bulbs in the future!
It's hard to overstate that Incandescent lights are basically "perfect" for color rendition, especially pitting them against household LEDs. Thanks for mentioning that it's hard to tell this before getting into the edit bay and working with both that footage and footage from LEDs with bad color cast/CRI effects and comparing. I have found some 300w replacement LED bulbs that have decent color rendition and output a lot of light for around $15 each and I use them in Paper lanterns a lot like this, especially as fill. Love it, keep the videos coming!
Don't try to use CFL light either because that will give much worse color rendition compared to LED and Incandescent. LED can still be a choice, however not all led are created the same and yes they can be quite expensive if you want to have the good one
Welp there's officially two Brandon Lees in the TechTube space... and no offense to Brandon Lee, but I think Brandon Lee is gonna crush him. Great video and looking forward to seeing more -LS
Brandon is gonna become one of those tech and filmmaking youtubers who you stumble upon trying to solve a specific problem or find reviews on a specific product and then you just watch every video they do forever
I’ve seen so many videos about creative lighting and it’s all Pavotube here, Pavotube there, 3000000000W strobe over here, then shoot in a living room of an expensive house. I’ve never seen a tutorial with an example with a reasonable budget that gets genuinely great results with some experimentation until this video. Will definitely try this when I don’t have proper lighting around :)
I'm not going to lie, I clicked on this thinking it was an LTT video. About halfway through I was like wow they're really trying something different with this one, I like it. An excellent Tut for budget creators.
Brandon, I want to thank you for putting in alternate solutions other than a C-stand as well as showing what phone footage would look like - you're making it very accessible for people on the tight budget which I am glad to see. Many UA-camrs assume you have certain tools and stands and I appreciate the "good UX" :)
I was thinking the setup cost a fraction of the cost of a c-stand 😅 so yea, nice alternatives. You can also get a mid-heavy duty neewer stand, boom pole and a sandbag to counter balance as a more cost effective alternative to a c-stand.
Brandon's really stepped up his presentation skills here. There's very little awkward pauses remaining, volume is appropriate for the subject matter, and he's letting his natural energy shine through right here. Great job!
Years ago for an article I built a soft light panel out of Home Depot lighting parts, wood, self driving screws and some rice paper for about $50. I I've seeing irl objects used as budget equipment.
It feels so weird to have Brandon making his own videos. Especially because this feels like an LTT video, but it's not. But I support you! And I hope this goes well!
It made me so so happy to see Sophia helping you by being a model in the video! Video was also great and very helpful. I'd ask about this: In many many countries, incandescent bulbs were phased/ruled out due to power inefficiency so it would be cool to see alternatives on that field.
CFLs works great if you add a diffuser (parchment paper) in front of the lamp and add a bit of color correction in post to warm the image a little bit. You might need more than 1 depending on the brightness you'd want tho. I use lamp desks as my lights for photography since it's just a hobby and dont want to spend a ton on lights. edit: and yeah, this method depends on the region. Since differences in the frequency might introduce flickering.
As a tip with the wiggle text in DaVinci Resolve: the wiggle speed varies with the length of the clip. As you can see, the second row of text wiggles way faster than the first row, as the text clip is shorter. You can add two wiggle texts of the exact same length into your timeline and turn both of them into a composite clip (right click, new composite clip). If you then shorten one of the comp clips it will not affect the original text clip length resulting in identical wiggle speeds for both rows :D
I had a collaborative channel with a friend that hasn’t been touched since he passed away, and this video has made me want to start making content again. I think this video is a great start to your post-LMG career. Best of luck, and I look forward to seeing what you create next!
Ring lights def have their place and if you want that aesthetic then it's great, but something more universal that can be used in multiple ways also seems more flexible.
The UA-cam algorithm put your video in my feed today, and I'm super hyped that you finally have your own UA-cam channel! But at the same time I'm sad because I just found out you have left LMG. Wherever life takes you next, I wish you much success, and I hope you continue to make awesome content! This video alone has so many things that'll help me elevate my content creation in my own videos! I can't wait to see more videos from you. LET'S GO BRANDON!!!
I saw you during the Intel makeover and said you should have videos and here you are. Way to go! Your wife is a great model. I'd love to see an overhead lighting and camera setup video. That is our struggle with our channel.
Blows my mind just how much lighting affects the quality of a subject being filmed, amazing and informative video Brandon. Keep up the awesome work, I look forward to the next vid
YES!!!!! More Brandon Content...I Love it... 98k Views in 9days... and 20+k subs for a new channel.... SUPER EXCITED TO SEE WHAT YOU DO WITH THIS ... DOPE... Good luck with the new channel... Keep it up...
My god , I have always enjoyed any ltt content with Brandon facing the camera so I'm genuinely stoked this channel is now a thing. Looking forward to your content Brandon!
YES! I've been waiting for you to make a channel for ages. I've always loved your camera content on LTT. You inspired me to make my first purchase a while back with a Nikon Z30. Look forward to the future :)
I been struggling with lighting for the longest time with talking head videos. That lighting set up is exactly what I would want. Great video. I would love to see how you set up filming in a tight space as well as a video talking about the different type of bulb in a production
Yey! first video! All the B-Rolls do not disappoint! There's purpose, there's ambiance, and there's a situation! The tutorial is brief and direct for newbies too. Great script there.
This is a great way to explain lighting ratios without getting technical. Also worth adding the bigger (or closer) a light source is the softer it will appear. Further away or smaller harder they will look. :) why a window looks so good.
This is about to be the most lit (lol) video channel for content creation! Can we get a video on recommended video cameras and DSLR for photography and video shoots at different budgets? Maybe live streaming camera recommendations for houses of worship and live events? Looking forward to your content man!
Please share with us everything you've learned on cinematic photography, from the basic of course 😀 Added: please also include other affordable solution, like Ikea lights this time.
As a professional light tech, working on TV and theatre shows, this is really good advise. I would try to squeeze in a hair light too. Just to put a bit more distance between talent and background. But since this is a 40$ setup for beginners, the key and fill light look great and better than most beginner videos. Just keep in mind to invest in a hair lights when you have more money to spend. Remember: 1. Lights 2. Camera! Great light can make most cameras produce pleasing images. Invest in lights first then upgrade your camera
Best of luck to you brother. You were one of my favorite people at LTT despite my lack of interest in photography/videography. Heck you got me commenting on this video about lamps from Ikea. You got this!
Seeing your work reviewing cameras, I always wanted a dedicated channel where you talked about photography. Guess that dreams do come true, because this is even greater than my expectations! Thanks for including the DIY option! I'd love if you could do a breakdown of your talking-head shots you did in this one! Looking forwards to seeing more of your content!
On the topic of lighting on a budget, I'd like to also point out that the lens used to record the footage used for comparison is a Canon film camera lens, adapted to the fuji camera. Using my vintage glass on my sony has become one of my favorite parts about learning digital photography and now cinematography. They're relatively inexpensive depending on the lens you get, quality can vary among brands as well as focal lengths, apertures, etc. There can be some vignetting and chromatic aberration, but on my aps-c camera it hasn't been a problem for my use case. They do have a slightly different look than modern lenses, but that's the fun of it. Since they are manual focus they are ideal for stationary recording such as what we see here, imho. Of course, this can be a whole separate video on its own. Great stuff Brandon! Looking forward to more of your work and knowledge about one of your passions.
This was really informative and straight to the point. I've always thought this was way more complicated and expensive, glad to see that's not the case! Great video :)
Amazing video. Keep it coming. Did not even know you have your own chanell. Your amazing and love your skills and watching you as the host on ltt videos.
I would love to see a video you make on like comparisons, I’d also love your suggestion on LED Wi-Fi controllable light bulbs at different price points, that can be used as practical’s with control over them for the background of talking head and narrative films
Awesome video! For me UA-cam is my passion project, it's not something I can just dump money into. Just in this short video I learned quite a bit. I loved the side by side comparisons, super helpful. Looking forward to more tips from the master himself! Thanks Brandon!
I have no idea how youtube recommended this to me, but I am glad it did. This video was shot, informative, and practical. I will take these tips and apply them in a CGI environment. I can't wait for your next video. ❤🔥
how serendipitous that this would be released at the same time a friend and i are trying to figure out how to best light the room in which we are going to shoot our first video! you're just as much fun in front of the camera as behind so i'm really looking forward to what you do with this space. thank you for your efforts, they are appreciated!
Absolutely great stuff! I have a feeling this is going to be a go-to channel for me. One thing I don't see people talk about much and would love to see your thoughts on and experience with is how using different lighting temperatures affects how a shot looks, beyond just daylight vs indoors, but more creatively, or how you decide what temp to go with if you have complete control over the lighting in the situation.
Ive been waiting for the day you had a UA-cam channel......Not gonna lie half the time i watched LTT videos was to learn some new lighting techniques (I am a full time wedding Photgrapher and videographer)
Great to see you Brandon! Nice video, and awesome production quality as I would expect from you! I hope your channel here blows up! And yes I'd love to see every lighting and camera setup video that you can produce!
Chinal ball things are actually a great idea! Up until now my recommandation for cheap solution has always been 8x8 muslin (bleached or not depending on the scene) and anything very powerful behind it but this works great!!! Very well made video, keep it up!
Great Video, adding a drawn top-down view of the china lights placement relative to the camera would have helped understand your lights placement a bit more. Showing how the lights pack-up for the sake of portability and management after filming would also be nice to see. Many thanks for the tips otherwise, would you recommend using Ikea's TRADFI 9000K-4500K light bulbs for this ? Or just stick with your setup ? Going back to non LED lights feels wrong nowadays.
Great tips. Would like a video on the type of lights. For example comparing a Hue bulb vs the incandescent light you are currently using. (In Europe just buying incandescent is not so easy anymore)
I've seen a lot of comments regarding incandescent bulbs and wanted to address why I used them.
1. Incandescent bulbs have a perfect rendition of skin tones
2. When you can find availability incandescent bulbs are very cheap.
3. Comparably cheap LED bulbs from Ikea or anywhere else will 100% have a worse rendition of skin tones
4. LED bulbs that are comparable to the skin tone quality of incandescent are about four times more expensive if not more usually.
Quick note: You can't tell a bulb's quality on skin tone with just your eyes or a CRI score.
Lastly, I understand a lot of you live in places where you cannot buy incandescent bulbs anymore. I plan on making a more in-depth video on the different types of bulbs in the future!
you should pin this comment
considered feedback pog
It's hard to overstate that Incandescent lights are basically "perfect" for color rendition, especially pitting them against household LEDs. Thanks for mentioning that it's hard to tell this before getting into the edit bay and working with both that footage and footage from LEDs with bad color cast/CRI effects and comparing. I have found some 300w replacement LED bulbs that have decent color rendition and output a lot of light for around $15 each and I use them in Paper lanterns a lot like this, especially as fill.

Don't try to use CFL light either because that will give much worse color rendition compared to LED and Incandescent. LED can still be a choice, however not all led are created the same and yes they can be quite expensive if you want to have the good one
Cool :)
Welp there's officially two Brandon Lees in the TechTube space... and no offense to Brandon Lee, but I think Brandon Lee is gonna crush him. Great video and looking forward to seeing more -LS
any tech tips on how to go to bed at a reasonable time?
@@passnaruto1787 Just use a different timezone! Somewhere it is always 8 PM
There was another Brandon Lee back in the early 90’s. But then the movie “the crow” happend. Just stay away from prop guns.
No LTTstore plug though... The youngling still has to learn! Haha :)
Is the video great thanks to its comments or did you watch it? hmm
So stoked to see what you make on your own!
Brandon Lee and Brandon Lee colab when?
@@pizzarune5 lol
Brandon is gonna become one of those tech and filmmaking youtubers who you stumble upon trying to solve a specific problem or find reviews on a specific product and then you just watch every video they do forever
What’s a great first UA-cam video,? A “how to make a great first UA-cam video” video!
Yes to all the “B-Roll” tips!!
Why no one tried to explaint this as easy as Brandon did? He makes it so damm easy to understand and provides great options. Thank you!
I’ve seen so many videos about creative lighting and it’s all Pavotube here, Pavotube there, 3000000000W strobe over here, then shoot in a living room of an expensive house.

You can also get a mid-heavy duty neewer stand, boom pole and a sandbag to counter balance as a more cost effective alternative to a c-stand.
Great tips! Way better than many cheap-ish "LED studio lights"
Brandon's really stepped up his presentation skills here. There's very little awkward pauses remaining, volume is appropriate for the subject matter, and he's letting his natural energy shine through right here. Great job!
Not even 30secs into the video and in love with the production quality. Can't wait to see the types of videos you make on this channel 💙
Same here!
Well he was the cinematographer and I guess editor for Linus Tech Tips, the youtube tech giant. Also he has worked with them for like 12 or 13 years.
Of course we want a video about different bulb types in video production! Can't wait for more video from legendary Brandon Lee 😃
Glad to see you back!
Years ago for an article I built a soft light panel out of Home Depot lighting parts, wood, self driving screws and some rice paper for about $50. I I've seeing irl objects used as budget equipment.
It feels so weird to have Brandon making his own videos. Especially because this feels like an LTT video, but it's not. But I support you! And I hope this goes well!
It feels like an LTT video because he created the look of the LTT videos.
@Matt561 Oh I know that, Brandon was there since the beginning
@@endergamer794 OG baby
Also is your avatar a chuzzle lol
it's going to be an LTT video but with insane B-roll because now there is no one to tell him no (linus)
Oodles of knowledge and experience. Zero elitism. One subscriber.
It made me so so happy to see Sophia helping you by being a model in the video! Video was also great and very helpful. I'd ask about this: In many many countries, incandescent bulbs were phased/ruled out due to power inefficiency so it would be cool to see alternatives on that field.
Who’s Sophia?
@@D.S.handle The cat...
Good quality flickerfree certed high CRI bulbs from suppliers like Waveform lighting (other brands are available) would work great
CFLs works great if you add a diffuser (parchment paper) in front of the lamp and add a bit of color correction in post to warm the image a little bit. You might need more than 1 depending on the brightness you'd want tho.

If you then shorten one of the comp clips it will not affect the original text clip length resulting in identical wiggle speeds for both rows :D
Second option would be to type both rows of text into one text clip and then use keyframing to "type" the second row a bit later
I had a collaborative channel with a friend that hasn’t been touched since he passed away, and this video has made me want to start making content again. I think this video is a great start to your post-LMG career. Best of luck, and I look forward to seeing what you create next!
So happy Brandon is making solo content excited to see the future of the channel
I watched my last LTT video 10 years ago and Brandon looks exactly like 10 years ago, amazing.
awesome video. the IKEA solution looks so much better than the ring light; I really dislike how unnatural shots using ring lights feel.
Ring lights def have their place and if you want that aesthetic then it's great, but something more universal that can be used in multiple ways also seems more flexible.
i would 100% go for the IKEA setup, it looks so much better, more natural and softer! Keep up the good work 🦾

LET'S GO BRANDON!!!
I can't wait to see what kinda content Brandon has here. I used his past work as an inspiration for some things I shoot
I saw you during the Intel makeover and said you should have videos and here you are. Way to go! Your wife is a great model. I'd love to see an overhead lighting and camera setup video. That is our struggle with our channel.
The ikea light looked a ton better than the ring light! Great video, thanks Brandon!
Great first video! LTT has always had a gap with photography and videography content. Hope to see more content on that here in the future.
What an absolutely informative video, I can't believe how much more I learned from this than any other video I have ever seen
Blows my mind just how much lighting affects the quality of a subject being filmed, amazing and informative video Brandon. Keep up the awesome work, I look forward to the next vid
something on the different types of light bulbs would be great! I always wonder why sometimes CFLs are still used
So excited for your channel! This was the highest quality first video on a channel I’ve seen!
YES!!!!! More Brandon Content...I Love it... 98k Views in 9days... and 20+k subs for a new channel.... SUPER EXCITED TO SEE WHAT YOU DO WITH THIS ... DOPE... Good luck with the new channel... Keep it up...
The soft box transition at the beginning was nuts - can't wait to see more!
Honestly this is the best explanation of lighting I have seen. Glad to see it and best wishes on the channel
My god , I have always enjoyed any ltt content with Brandon facing the camera so I'm genuinely stoked this channel is now a thing.
Looking forward to your content Brandon!
Welcome back Brandon!
YES! I've been waiting for you to make a channel for ages. I've always loved your camera content on LTT. You inspired me to make my first purchase a while back with a Nikon Z30. Look forward to the future :)
Definitely need a video on the different types of bulb and why led+modifiers can't replace incandescent
Brandon gets wings and flies by himself. Love it! If your channel will blow up someday - I subscribed at 16k. Just for the record.
I been struggling with lighting for the longest time with talking head videos. That lighting set up is exactly what I would want. Great video. I would love to see how you set up filming in a tight space as well as a video talking about the different type of bulb in a production

Love this first video! Excited to see many more!
Amazing video. Keep it coming. Did not even know you have your own chanell. Your amazing and love your skills and watching you as the host on ltt videos.
Heyyy Brandon.. congrats on your first vid!
Interviewing in 2023 is video interviews. TY for showing this setup
Awesome! Yes would love e more videos, specially over lighting types, positions and use of colours/gels
this is quite nice, nice to see brandon making vids and hope to see more
Great production quality dude, nice to see some easy to digest profesional advice
I would love to see a video you make on like comparisons, I’d also love your suggestion on LED Wi-Fi controllable light bulbs at different price points, that can be used as practical’s with control over them for the background of talking head and narrative films
YOOOO INSTANT SUB
love your work on LMG. I like to learn more about cameras in general and iso, lens, etc from you.
Awesome video! For me UA-cam is my passion project, it's not something I can just dump money into. Just in this short video I learned quite a bit. I loved the side by side comparisons, super helpful. Looking forward to more tips from the master himself! Thanks Brandon!
lets go Brandon!!!! Excited to see what you're gonna do!!
Thank you, Brandon.
The video is very good.
And I´m definitely up for more of these useful tips and tricks for the unexperienced.
Kudos.
Thanks Brandon, good to see you going out on your own. Good luck to you, keen to watch the journey and deploy your tips!
I didn't even realize this wasn't an LMG video until I went to click away and saw the subscribe button.
Quality content as always Brandon! Subscribed!
Just when I was looking for a lighting solution that would not break the bank! Fantastic and well timed video! Looking forward to more.
Glad to see you creating your own channal man, looking forward to it
Honestly would have gone ring light, so appreciate the knowledge.
Subscribed! Great to see you breaking out on your own! And yes we want to see a pros and cons video about different bulbs.
I hope the channel is a smashing success! Good luck.
If you dim your lights, make sure to take a test-shot first! A lot of common dimmable lights produce a lot of flicker when dimmed down.
Love it! As somebody that's trying to learn how to use my camera, this is very helpful 😄
Yes to the different light bulbs video. Can you do one on cheap B roll ideas too?
I have no idea how youtube recommended this to me, but I am glad it did. This video was shot, informative, and practical. I will take these tips and apply them in a CGI environment.
I can't wait for your next video. ❤🔥
