Awesome Video Eric !! Thank you for sharing !! Now back to watching your full course !! I purchased cinema mastery last week and I have been watching it every day since...Very good course BTW
So pumped for you!!
Want to see more of these?? Y or N
Yes for real!
Yes! Great job!
heck yeah!
Totally! Love 'em!
Yes Please !!!
Amazing job, Eric!
Love how you teach the concepts behind beautiful lighting and not just show exactly which lights you should use 💛
Thank you! 😊
I love watching these things, thank you! You can never stop learning!
Great video. If you don’t mind me asking what app did you use to write on top of the screen and have it disappear?
I actually like your version better loll great work
Had seen the image samples on Instagram. Was waiting for the breakdown. Thank you.
Brilliant! Thank you for this
Nice Eric, this is great!! I love the breakdown, but re-creating it...just takes it to the next level!! Keep it up. Much appreciated.
Thank you! 😊
Really, really helpful video. I’ve been shooting for a few years now but haven’t put much effort into learning proper lighting yet. Thanks!
You can say it like this too: "You can give a man a fish and THEN teach him how to fish, because it's a lot easier to learn when you're not starving". :)
Really great job on this Eric!
14:44 Y'know, connoisseurs call it "whisky tape".
Awesome looking video. But is it natural? I really doubt that.
in the end it would be awesome if you showed slowly turning each light to fill thw whole room turn by turn. but thanx
good idea!
Nice 👍
Great work
Thanks for make this content ❣️
You are amazing brother 👍🏼🙏🏻💪🏻
Amazing skills!!! Glad to find U! 🙌🏻
what app did you use to write on top of the screen and have it disappear?
The talent is my nephew AJ. Thank you for giving him the opportunity to be a part of this.
He was awesome to work with!
Very helpful video!!
Thank you.
thanx for breaking it down. please post more breakdown . we can learn a lot from it.
Hi Eric, thanks for this! May I ask which RED are you using and is it S-35/APC or full-frame? I ask as you mention focal lengths -- 35mm or 50mm -- but as sensor size determines the look, wondering if this is actual 50mm full frame (which looks like 35mm APC/S-35). Any clarity here would help a lot, thank you!
It’s a scarlet w - super 35
What software are you using to breakdown this scene.
Another brilliant video, very helpful as I'm doing my first few spec commercials at the moment in an attempt to build up a reel!
Get it!
Thanks, Eric. More good advice :)
You and Patrick O'Sullivan are my go-to guys for breakdowns. But you're showing how to do it with actual, cheap lights. Excellent job Eric!
You the best🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Thanks 😊
Great tutorial Eric. Thank you
Is there a reason you shot the practicals with a red hue as opposed to just making them tungsten color in-camera?
I didn’t shoot them red, I just set up all the lights really fast first and then went in and adjusted the colors
This was great!
Great video. This was very useful info and inspiring! Delivered well too. I don’t know a lot about colour grading especially isolating areas to colour grade. Would love to see a video on that if you haven’t already done one!
I'll keep that in mind for another video! If you want to learn color, I'd highly recommend my Pro Editor course which has a full section on color grading: cinemamastery.com/proeditor
@@EricThayne awesome will be checking this out!
Are you going to be adding videos to your lighting course?
Is there something else you’d like to see in it?
They're hiding the light by utilising the architecture of the house. There is an arch dividing the living room from what is likely the entryway or dining, and the camera is shooting through it. The light is behind the upper right corner, blocked by the arch and the camera's perspective.
Yeah you're most likely right, just looks like a really tight spot
This is a dope video thanks man! I just bought your PRO EDITOR can’t wait to dig in. I’m also in the Facebook community. But I’m curious which Red Camera is this and what ND filter?
Stoked for you! This is the red scarlet w. I wasn’t using ND on this one, but the filters I have are promaster hgx
Amazing video, I really love to get to know the way to think about lighting and how to reverse engineer a look. Keep up the good work.
Great video as per usual! Originally I assumed they'd flagged off the bulb on the left with black wrap, since there's zero orange spill on the subject, but I was surprised to see you didn't get any spill either without flagging.
Super informative :)
Yeah, that's a good thought. Wasn't necessary though with the bulb dimmed down
Very informative and helpful!
Thank you so much for this type of content, Eric. Really inspiring! I wonder if you could show us in a future video how would a cheap dslr camera (like SL2, for instance, which is the camera that I currently own) work in the same lighthing setup. And maybe some tips in order to get better results with it. I know it will not be a fair comparison with a RED camera, but just to help out everyone who's starting out in cinematography and doesn't own a lot of gear. Again, thank you so much!
Maybe I’ll do the next one on a cheaper camera 😊 but honestly the lighting is what matters. The camera only affects technical quality, so things like dynamic range, noise levels, sharpness, color science, etc. But it’s *creative* quality that makes the difference, and that part is up to you as a creator.
Great video! What white balance did you set it on with so many color temperatures playing into the scene?
Somewhere around 5600 to match the key light and keep the skin tones natural
I love that type of content !
