Dude this is some good stuffff!!! It makes total sense & i haven't heard of anyone else doing this, it also makes things look so much better!

[@TylerEdwards]

Thanks for the comment!

[@Ansonandco]

Love these results dude! Great vid

[@TylerEdwards]

Thanks man! Appreciate it

[@cleverghostchili]

these results are really nice, i love long shadows

[@TylerEdwards]

Thanks so much. I’m a huge fan of long shadows

[@cogmission1]

Great, now I have to go out and sell all my soft boxes! LOL! Just kidding! Thank you Tyler! This makes you stop and think about the reflex of always using a soft box! This helps remind me that there are lots of different tools to use and you don't always have to do the same old thing!

[@TylerEdwards]

Hahah don’t sell the soft boxes! Appreciate your comment!

[@GriffinConway]

Nice one Tyler! Lots of good tips here

[@TylerEdwards]

Thanks bro!

[@topicruben]

Great job, man. Those tall Aputure lights are amazing 😭 Keep rocking!

[@TylerEdwards]

Love my Aputure lights! Thanks for dropping by!

[@AllThingsFilm1]

5:42 was a really nice shot from your light technique. Very cool!

[@TylerEdwards]

Thank you!

[@sylvestrisstudios]

I wish I’d watched this a week ago. I was shooting in a basement this week and went for a documentary cellar fbi agent style interview because I didn’t have any motivation. I didn’t think to use gobos to fake hard light on the back wall to give the impression there was a window.

[@TylerEdwards]

I’m sure it still looked really cool!

[@sylvestrisstudios]

@@TylerEdwards it looks great and the client loves it, but sat in the grade I’m wishing I’d had just popped a little something on the back wall.

[@BlaineWestropp1]

👌

[@TylerEdwards]

voila, cinema

[@sylvestrisstudios]

5:52 Is that an Aputure power bank? Link???

[@TylerEdwards]

Yup! bit.ly/aputure_delta_pro

@@TylerEdwards thank you!!! 🙏🏼

[@vincentkipping8353]

Nice video but i think the 600d is for this a little bit to weak. Because you need to put the light further away to sell realistic sunlight. The 1200d might be the better option for this style of lighting.

[@TylerEdwards]

I definitely want a 1200d. Fantastic light. Definitely true pulling the light further back sells more realistic light. Physics and all. Appreciate the comment!

[@JuanMatajuaninamilli]

Agree the 1200 would be better (always get more light than you think you need) but I think Tyler shows that you can still make the 600 work well w all his examples.
