    All of UA-cam is thirsting over the latest camera... just get yourself a t3i and watch this channel. If you master lighting and exposure the limitations of your gear, the need for all the extra latitude practically evaporates. Get a cinema camera with these skills and you’re unstoppable.
    As casual and funny as you are knowledgeable. Incredible content. This should be in the top 3 channels for aspiring filmmakers.

    I love your videos. I started taking videography and photography seriously this past year and for months UA-cam kept throwing hacky "be a filmmaker in 20 minutes!" videos at me that never went deeper than reiterating the exposure triangle for the thousandth time. Finally UA-cam blessed me by putting you in my recs and I feel like I'm drinking from a firehose now.

    9:20 Can't you just wrap some thick diffusion paper around the bulb to get it down a stop or two? Or some ND gel? Seems like a pretty easy fix for me. And dimmers are like what, 10 bucks? Seems weird to me that an ad of this level doesn't have the gear to bring down that little practical.

      If that window is being used to key the actor, that would not only control the level outside but also get him less light too. It would ended up being the same that just expose for the outside .. and more time consuming, no?
