Think Media sunlight!
Limo Studio with soft boxes. Inexpensive but great for beginners.
I use a basic 3 soft box lighting set up (key, fill and hair/back) depending on the room I'm in, at this time.
I have limited space in my home office. A pair of soft boxes aimed at the ceiling to bounce light into the room, a pair of photography light bulbs in holders behind a diffuser to side of the camcorder, and a reflector to back fill the light. I just recently changed this set up to remove the graininess from my videos. I got an RGB desk lamp coming in to light the background behind me.
Natural light
It takes a great courage to create tutorials like this. Most of us are too scared to appear on screens and ofcourse reactions is the scary part. I hope someday I will be able to interact with people like this.
Just take a leap of faith! Don't let fear hold you back. You can do it!
For webcam situations -- if you have multiple monitors, you can use them to provide lighting. For example, if you have a 3-monitor setup, you can put large windows or background color on the two outboard monitors using a flattering color, like amber-orange sunset. Even if the additional monitors are not attached to the computer you're using, you can attach them to some other computer to set their colors.
My ENTIRE business THANKS you. I depend on my glasses and they are a part of my character, and you just saved my brand with this video!!!!!
I'm quite proud since I figured out step 1 by myself when I was taking some professional photos and I was seeing the light in my glasses. Moved the light over to the side and boom! No glare! I'll definitely be using the webcam lighting tricks since I have a few interviews coming up for work!
I'm a visual learner so actually seeing that soft light method was very helpful. I saw the title about wearing glasses and had to see what you were going to share. :-)
Thanks! I use a ring light to do my live streams, and I've recently taken my glasses off to avoid the glare. Having a better ligthing setup is what I know I'll need to work on eventually, and this video was helpful for me to understand better how to do it. Then I'll be able to wear my glasses again during my live streams! :)
I'm nearsighted, and I use my laptop + a flat screen tv to do my live stream presentations. I figured out a way using a chair and pillows to bring my flat screen tv closer to my face so that I could read the screen without glasses. It works, but I know my setup can be better.
This video is so helpful. I use light stands with LED bulbs and umbrellas that I got in a kit from Amazon. All I really needed was to know how to place them. Thanks!
That popped up in my recommendations, thanks a lot. I am trying to get better lighting for my next batch of videos, your advices are really useful, thanks again 🙂
THANK YOU!!! This helped me out a lot!! Angled the lights outward worked great! As well as the soft boxes!
thank god somebody's talking about this!!
i post covers on my channel and ALWAYS struggle with the reflections in my glasses so this was super helpful! x
Happy to help!
I found this trying to sort out lighting for Zoom video conferencing and none of the other videos addressed glare on glasses. Thanks very much for these tips.
Fortunately, I have a three box lighting rig so I can play around with natural and fill lighting.
This is such a huge huge help. I'm filming more videos and my glasses are driving me nuts haha I have a soft box for a LED panel light, but the shadows of the frames are just still a little too strong. I will definitely try some more things! Thank you
literally been moving around so many times trying to film lol. I wanted natural light from window but that didn't work, moved further into the room but then the sun went away. tried with lights but the ones I have are not so good. But I think I finally get it now. No light from the front! Thank you for the video!
I wear glasses and have wanted to know how to remove the glare from my glasses these were great tips and insight for someone like me, thank you!😀
This is very helpful. I do unboxing review videos and lots of times my closeups have lots of glare. I’m going to try this technique, thanks!
Yesterday; I started recording with my glasses off 😂😂
lol I am doing the same!
Live out Loud with Moe Nicole THE STRUGGLE IS REAL
@@BrunaClaas Have you tried contact lenses? That is what I prefer.
I can’t do that. Sunken eyes, dark shadows, etc. It looks bad.
That's one of the benefits of scripting and memorizing. :)
The lighting pointed to the wall saved my life!!! thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this video! This has been killer for me trying to stop the glare in my glasses.
Cheers, Nolan! I tilt my head & adjust lights, but adjusting the brightness of the screen was an A-Ha! moment.
This is a fantastic tutorial! I have a couple different LED lights, but have always been bothered by the glare! Thank you!
Thanks for these tips 👊🏽 they helped me solve that problem for shooting todays batch of videos and I know they'll help me all the way into future videos 💥💯
Great video. Straight to the point and very helpful. Thank you!
Thx for the tips. I have struggled with this for a minute. I use a basic 3 soft box lighting set up (key, fill and hair/back) depending on the room I'm in, at this time.
3 point lighting is a great way to light!
Great tips! I actually started wearing my contacts to avoid glare on my glasses! Thanks for this :)
Yes, me too!! If you have contacts, definitely makes lighting ALOT easier!
Thanks, Nolan! I usually wear contacts so I didn't have any experience trying to light with glasses. This was helpful!
TWO PRO TIPS from an EYE DOC! 1. Buy glasses with THIN frames (less shadow on your face) and 2. Get a high quality anti-reflective coating on the lens ( best on the market right now is Crizal Saphire 360 as it reduces glare from more angles of light)
EXTRA PRO TIP! Consider Contact lenses!
Nice tips! Never knew my crizal lenses would come in handy for my videos. Thank you
Thanks for the tips. I really like the way I look in glasses, I can't stand the glare.
...or just stick a polarizing lens filter on the camera :) I'm not sure how it would work with the monitor in the background, but would definitely instantly eradicate the reflections...
Thanks! I need to get new glasses soon and I was going to ask if there was something of this nature.
Very helpful tip! Tried it and it actually works
Thanks so much! Very helpful
Yes. Lighting angles have worked well for me in getting that glare away. But would polarizing filters possibly work? Curious.
even as a music producer, these tips helped for my beat making videos. thanks guys!! been watching the channel for a few years now.
Great tips! We use the Newer Lighting Kit Think Media reviewed a while back and we LOVE it. Will keep these tips in mind when setting up the next video!
Hi! Glasses wearer since the 3rd grade. This is so helpful! Im finally about to purchase some lighting gear. Thank you guys! 😊
Awesome!
So helpful, I worked on photographing reflective surfaces before, but have had a devil of a time lighting my own nerdie face 😆 thanks!!!
I have a really small desk space to do my work, so I am using the house lighting, inset lighting in the ceiling on my right which is actually less than a foot in front of me. I added a desk lamp to my left to serve as a fill ight. I only have glare if I leave my monitors on while I record. I have a Panasonic HDC-TM700 video camera to film with.
Love your channel content is always amazing and helpful for us starting on youtube! I'm starting a tech channel just for reviewing best budget to high end products and this channel is my inspiration for it.
Nice quick TIP! saved me some time and money!
I am so happy you guys created this!
It would have been nice to actually show the lights in relation to where you were sitting in the first segment. I’ll try out some of these tips, thanks!
Awesome video! Thank you
this was super helpful, thank you! 👏
Hi there. Thank you for your sharing and tips. It's really help. I just bought 1 rim light, and exploring ways to make my recorded video better in term of lighting quality.
SUPER AWESOME. THANK YOU!!!
I have a simple 3 light studio kit (usually just use the two) from Cowboy Studios. Daylight fluorescent balanced bulbs bounced off white umbrellas. I get them high enough to keep the glare off my glasses.
This is awesome thank you!! I hate seeing the light glare, Nolan you ROCK!! Thank you Think Media
Wow! I didn’t know you could bypass the glare. I love wearing glasses but can’t on camera because of the glare. Thanks for the tips!
drop a polarizing lens filter on the camera lens and you're good to go... no more reflections. That's what they're for.
Hi Nolan. Thanks for sharing. Great information on lighting!
This is perfect thanks so much. :) I just started this channel and was having this problem. Next video I will do this. Just need to get some lights now. :)
THIS is so helpful, thank you so much! Struggling with this in my videos :)
How useful! Thank you Nolan and the Think Team!
thanks this was very helpful. I use a neewer ring light
I use natural light coming in from windows and sometimes supplement with canned ceiling lights. I need to up my game. Thanks!
I am using a Neewer Ring light center up - but I have some soft box lights coming. So upgrades underway!
As a Do It Yourselfer, I've got a couple of work lights with bright Xenon bulbs. My ceiling is white. I have excellent results hanging one from a shelf bracket and the other on a couch; both pointing up at the ceiling. Nice diffused natural lighting. Experiment with placement, and you'll have nice, diffused, natural lighting. Dunno why everyone doesn't do this...
Very helpful! Thanks.
Very instructive!
For my home studio I have a 10 inch ring light to my right and have a hand made rig with under cabinet lights to my left. I use a ton of ambient light to try and separate from my background.
This was super helpful -- thanks! Any suggestions for shooting/lighting someone who has transition lens that darken?
Very helpful Nolan! Looks like I have the same lighting gear that you have. Confession time... I haven't used it year because I kept blowing (over exposing) my video quality! Lol... Now I have a better idea to play with. Thank you! 🤓
Thanks mate great video
So I've started recording my UA-cam videos using the tips you've given
So helpful thank you!
Awesome and thanks
nice tips. instead of locating key light on your left side and have deep shadow on right, can't we use a softbox+speedlight 45 degrees over the head so reflexions go to the floor instead of to the camera so you don't need fill light ?
Something I constantly struggle with as someone who always wears glasses shoots. Do you have any recommendations for lighting in a small space?
Nice idea... Thanks for the tips... Without my glasses I would be blind, so this will help greatly... Cheers!!!
Great tips. This is a perennial issue for me. I use 2 soft boxes and a couple clamp lamps for fill.
Super helpful video. Thanks!
I'm using a big soft box bounced against the wall behind my monitor as you suggest. I have a Logitech web cam. Fortunately, I also have a bright studio, so the lighting overall is nice as well.
Thanks for the tips! Lover think media!
Simple and practical advice. Thanks!
Nolan Malt this video is a such of so much help ,it made me more interested in create a youtube channel as i was always afraid of lighting thanks
Do it man! You got this!
thank you how but how does one catch attention for people to sub to your channel ,this got me stuck
What if you want to read what's on your computer while recording (ideally, recording from the computer's built-in camera)?
use anti glare glasses
