Thanks for the great tutorial! My explanation with color intensity & gels: flash light is like white paint, the more white paint (flash) per color unit (gel), the more diluted the color 🙂
Michael ... I know you said you were new to gels, and curious about one thing. I find the banding on her neck at 3:19 distracting. Not sure if this was intentional, or not. I love the pose and the color wash.
Thank you so much for all your help, I was wondering if you were coming to Texas sometime, please let me know when you do, I will be glad to meet you in person.
I love your video!✨Let me ask , if I dont have zoom reflector for side light, is there have any options?(like ocf grid or just put b1 near model, etc...)if the ressalt gona be totally changed, it's not make sense though,i want to know other ways.
Hi Mike great video. Did you adjust your light power(s) between shots? It looked like one of the shots had more shadow on the left side of the face. Thanks.
Great video, as always! On your picture at 11:35, I can see that there are two shadows - one behind the model, one on the floor - is that how you wanted it?
The cross shadows are from the accent lights. Full figures were really an afterthought but in any case no it doesn't bother me as in the studio vs location its less about replicating what happens in nature with respect to lighting.
It is a good idea to get used to diagrams in a standard format because it is the most effective way of describing the light configuration which you should be doing for your own work so you can repeat a look in the future. It is equivalent to the way an electronic engineer visualizes a circuit or a recording engineer would record micing setups. If you are doing a lot of different styles, this becomes invaluable for your own work or when communicating with an assistant.
And people have different learning methods Stan. Don't fault them. For the record, as a pro, I sometimes find lighting diagrams missing important elements ... e.g.,grids used, etc. I get it. People are busy, or assume others will "just figure it out". But there are lots of successful videos out there. Peter Hurley's headshot series, or RGG's tutorials.
Thanks for the great tutorial!

When metering main and strip box you do you meter as a whole or individually. Asking for a friend!

I'm always seasoning to taste with power adjustments, distance adjustments, and the use of reflective and subtractive panels. Hope that helps ;-)
Thanks. I believe you should demonstrate it in a live video, which could make more sense. It still very good explanation. Appreciated.
Great video, thanks
Michael, as always thanks for sharing. This is very informative.
You're welcome! Thanks for tuning in.

SOLID WORK!!!
Excellent Michael - Thanks!
Thanks Larry!
Plzz ptovide more detal with product name & all umbrela with pic we need for new studio plzzz suggest me
thanks u so much :)
I would like to see an actual video of the photo session, not just diagrams. thanks!
Will you be paying the video crew?

Yep!
That comes off as a little sarcastic. Not sure what his request is for, but if it is just to learn photography lots of folks could find videos useful.
