You sir, are perhaps the best film creator on UA-cam. Your videos are absolutely brilliant. We are all thankful for them.
He’s really good. You should check out Like Stories of Old. An amazing creator.
I love how your videos are just technical enough for those curious or entering the industry where more technical information would be overwhelming. And your editing is clean and well paced. Thank you for making these!
Your videos are so well made, good job, really
Much Appreciation for you and all the Pure Gems of knowledge you share with us! Blessings 😃😊
This is the first channel I see here kn youtube that actually gives industry standard knowledge and no videography or youtuber tips
A really informative video - you always put so much effort into your videos. I hope they are more videos about lighting in the future. Stay safe!
Been waiting for this particular one, let’s go!
This is perfect ! An amazingly straightforward and concise video
One more thing I would add is how accurate each of these lights are regarding CRI and TLCI
Wow so much I've learned today, thanks for making the video sir.
Sir great video can please you make video on the cinematography style of Subrata Mitra ,who invented technique of bounced light.... 1st cinematographer in the history of motion pictures to use this ...in Satyajit Ray's movies.
This was so informative! Thank you!!
Fantastic, thanks for the clear information.
Your video essays have given me such a good insight into the filmmaking process, thanks so much🙏🏽 been a huge fan since Relics
Keep rockin', man. Great video!
Another beautiful video!!
Awesome tutorial
Awesome video, you taught a lot! Thanks!
Man, thank you
Your videos still inspire me in my creative life, from the first day I saw your first video
Thank you for sharing!
Greetings from Russia!
I loved this, thanks my dude!!!
How much did Nanlite pay to make sure Aputure and Quasar never got mentioned 😂😂😅
Are they good? Pricey? Nanlite is affordable
Glad you shed a light on this topic. 😏💡
Such valuable information!
Awesome vid, thx!
Good stuff, thanks for sharing!
Amazing video! Thank you
You are really the best. Thank you.
this video was very helpfull . thankyou soo much
lovely knowledge bombs, please keep posting
Thanks always
This is awesome 👏
Great Video!!!
Very good lesson....!!
Fascinating stuff! Have you ever done a video on working with entirely natural lighting? Or maybe improvised lighting?
Haha, Doyle partially perplexed con bira is great!
Nice info❤
Perfect
THANK YOUUUUU!!!!
I enjoy your videos, especially as someone who works in Film and Television myself, but I wish you would add the film title, year, and even the DP's name over the clips you use.
underrated chanel
Pure gold for aspiring filmmakers
Highly informative, thank you. From a newbie standpoint, what is the point of using HMI or Tungsten if you have LED? I guess for Tungsten it's the price difference, but other than that, any advantages as of 2021?
Much harsher sources from HMI/ Tungsten. LEDs simply don't have the same output
Very nice and well made video, thanks! What is the Japanese (?) movie called that you're using in the Fluorescent part?
Awesome & Thanks :)
I recently bought a fresnel with a 2k tungsten light, it heats a lot, and I got a doubt about it: Do I need to wait the light to cool down to move it like a HMI or can I manipulate it hot without any problems?
Hi, Great Video, what movie do you use in the Fluorescent section?
Great vid..
Very good
tks
Fantastic
You are a gem
Great video !!
What's the name of the movie they used to illustrate fluorescent lights please ? I love the framing of the shots
Fallen Angels (1995)
Seeing a Telugu Dop an Indian in your tute made me very happy, the man with the sky panel is Kk.senthil kumar the Dop of Bahubali movie and the new INDIAN Bigger movie RRR directed by Rajamouli Sir 😊
What lights are best used for skin?
about the arri flicker free... its not really flicker free but it uses a higher Hz output than the High Speed ones. But you will still have problems when you are going to do extreme slow motion things.
What about lasers used as background elements?
The Master is a great movie, great cast too
Kino also has 2900K bulbs
5600k bulbs are labeled in blue
3200k bulbs are labeled in orange
2900k blulbs are labeled in red
The 2900k bulbs are less popular as they have the worst color rendition
I spent some time working at a crappy rental house that only had 2900k bulbs, they would just send out the kino's with a big piece of correction gel and plus green to (hopefully) dial the light to be usable
The tubes had a bad habit of turning green or magenta over time, that's why they threw in the plus green
Thanks for the Wonk Kar Wai
In cinema can you mix the light tungsten with the led light?
2:20 senthil kumar sir 🔥❤️
Hmis these days can be moved while on without any problems, they are even used on driving trailers.
Unfortunately LEDs produces a lot of heat, so it requires big coolers usually with fans which produces noise. Also good full spectrum phosphor LEDs are have a same light output in terms of lm/w as HMI which not require cooling system and can be much more powerful.
What's the name of the asian movie he used to illustritate the flourescent lights?
2:19 hey...senthil
my favorite lighting is natural light
One thing I noticed, which I'd like to know if it is a consequence of LED lights largely replacing tungsten is, that films since the mid/early 2010s look different than films that were released in the 90s and 00s. The skin used to look softer and the overall picture had a distinct vibe that immediately felt like a film. It's hard to describe, but you might notice it if you look at the early Harry potter movies or the first Spiderman trilogy and compare them to more recent blockbuster flicks. If anyone can help i'd be glad to hear it!
I'm also curious about this, but I have a feeling there are so many factors in play, such as the advent of digital over film and the image getting sharper and sharper, sometimes too sharp for some DPs.
There can be several factors. It's not necessarily (only) the light source that gives the picture a film look. Digital pictures are super sharp nowadays. To counter that you can use a Black Pro Mist filter in different sizes: 1/8 (less extreme), 1/4 (more extreme effect). The filter changes pointy lights like leds to a more shiny light and reduces the overall sharpness of the picture. It also makes the skin softer. You can also add grain to a digital picture to immitate the usual grain of kodak film. Also CGI might be too sharp and look very artificial in general. Those are just 3 factors that affect the image we see and it's completely subjective whether you like the sharper or the less sharper film look. So, it's up to the filmmakers what they wanna use.
Yes I enjoyed the video..
You should also add that, when using a full CTB on a tungsten yeah you get to 5600k but you loose about 2 stops of light (so you divided the light output by 4 which is enormous), and therefore the DP has to consider whether or not he plans to get 3200k or 5600k in his shot during preprod to avoid using a 3200k fixture and color correct it to 5600k therefore loosing a lot of output !
And you could easily expand more on LED and why it's better than fluorescent (almost no wire, no flicker and no ballast, can be battery, super lightweight, RGB), and therefore conclude that fluorescent will disappear in a near future in the industry !
What’s the name of the film at the end?
What about neon lights?
KK Senthil Kumar sir at 02:20....
Is Nanlite better quality than Godox?
which movie is the one of 10:32 and 10:45?
Fallen Angels (1995) - directed by Wong Kar-Wai, Christopher Doyle being the cinematographer ;)
His voice reminds me of Ewan McGregor Ben Kenobi
The LED part It feels more an ad than a learning path for cinematography
Film at 10:31?
🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Please what is the last film name Asian film
film 11:32?
Name of movie at 11:25?
Fallen Angels (1995) - directed by Wong Kar-Wai, Christopher Doyle being the cinematographer ;)
All the electrics watching this must’ve laughed when he called LED’s easiest to use 😭😭
great vid tho :3
10:22 please the name of this movie
He put a list of the films he featured in the last 10 seconds of the video so it should be there
fallen angels
Next time you upload a video, try not have 20 million ads between each subject. I can deal with 1 at the front and the end, but not all the way through
this just a long ad for nanlite
I miss my wife
Fluorescent lights aka bzzzz bl bl blink b b b blink blink blblblink
Christ. Drives me insane.
Done watching your videos. The last two I've seen have been nothing but ads with clickbaity titles.
I get the need for sponsors but the overwhelming nanlite references were abit much. 3.5 mins in i’ve seen like 20 images or mentions. I stopped watching. Really dope channel but I hope this doesn’t become an overwhelming product placement sponsored youtube channel.
that's beacuse at the beginning of the video he talks about led lights, from 4:27 he never talk about nanlite again
@@mauriciochavez3564 4.5 mins of bias promotion on a 12 min video seems a bit much to me. I truly hope this is not the future format. The avg commercial is only 30 secs.
@@jackstacks83 as a newbie I still found the Nanlite/LED part highly informative. Does it truly lack any substance from a pro standpoint?
One more thing I would add is how accurate each of these lights are regarding CRI and TLCI
