Brilliant video! The way you explain cinematic lighting is so clear and easy to follow. Your knowledge and teaching style are truly amazing-learned a lot!
Young DP here - this is excellent advice. Explains all of the most important concepts very clearly. At 6:13 I laughed out loud because early in my journey I tried to light scenes this way and just didn't have enough light output/equipment to make it work. A lot of the job is just problem solving and you've left the audience with a toolkit to solve those problems. Bravo!
Wow...this is a really really good video. Simple and really explains lighting.

So happy to see you active on UA-cam, Chris. You are one of the most interesting voices movie wise out there, and sorely missed you when you took a step back. These videos are fascinating and illuminating (pardon the pun) for cinephiles like me. Great, thorough work, well explained and constantly giving visual examples. Been following your work since you guest appeared on the Schmoes Know show. Keep it up, and greetings from Spain!
-many years ago you did brilliant reviews of The Leftovers. Now, from the UK we have 2 seasons of The Devil’s Hour. A wonderful, just this side of creepy, series. I hope you see it! ❤
This is excellent. I have watched a LOT of lighting videos, but this one makes it look so simpler. Thank you very much for this. This is awesome educational work + you’re such a good vibe. just subscribed :)
well taught and very effective visuals to enhance it. it's almost like you're a professor or something lol seriously tho sometimes even well intentioned professors don't explain things this effectively. i'd prob vote on lenses next but i'm for all of it of course.
Hey, thanks! Yeah, the concepts can we tricky to break down! It was a fun challenge to figure out the clearest ways to explain and demonstrate though :)
@@ChrisHartwell your efforts did not go unnoticed, it did the trick. And makes something that could be very complicated to articulate seem more simple and straightforward.
@@jeancaceres7670 good question! It really depends on the shot and the environment you’re shooting in. But generally, you’re directing your sources of light towards certain parts of your frame. Also, consider how you’re staging your subjects, placing them in ways to only get hit by _one_ source. You may also need to block certain sources of light, keeping them off particular parts of your frame.

Did you explain HOW to "separate color temperatures"? I refer to the camera settings? In 8:11?
