What really caps off an already good video is how you end it by telling us that no matter where we are we should always be aware of what light is doing in a scene. Thanks.
I love your graspable explanations, and your up-beat attitude, filled with excitement and enthusiasm speaking about photography (the sciences of it). Love the way how you get into the depth by demonstrating such a great presentation to show the verses between these 2 lightings. It is just what I was looking for.
This was the most helpful video ive seen on demonstrating light sources. I can honestly say Ive come from this video feeling a bit more comfortable with experimenting with light sources.
Thanks so much for your help in understanding some photo-speak! I have done photography for years, but prefer natural light. I've had clients ask for studio shots and have been overwhelmed learning about lighting. You helped simplify!
Wow just in few minutes, I can able to get a better understanding of the lighting. Though I am not into photography and in-fact I am totally in a different field of work. You explanation will definitely will be very useful for those who like to learn the concept. Thanks a lot for the video.
Well done Tony another great learning video for all us amateur photographer's you do a great job of explaining how it all works thanks again and hopefully you will have another one for us very soon
Awesome! Great explanation for a beginner graphics programmer. Just simply put and easy to understand. Thanks a million! I have to look for other sources of explanation because books sometimes are not straightforward.
Been looking for this for a while-- a wonderful no-nonsense explanation of lighting basics. Hopefully I can apply these principles successfully to my next vid. Thanks!
Not really trying to study photography, but cinematography. I just bought a really cheap lighting from lowes, and bought a couple yards of white fabric from wal-mart to study and make my lighting a little better for my video. I have a really nice Panasonic Lumix Lx7 camera that shoots 1080p at 28Mbps with a 1/1.7" Sensor.. I know it's not the most expensive camera, but it's got a aperture ring on it etc. etc. I can adjust the brightness on the fly when shooting video etc. I got some 23watt (100watt equiv.) bulbs, and just trying to learn as much as possible about hard light & soft light, diffusing, reflecting light. Nice video, still think I need to learn a little more though, your video was really nice and you talked about some really specific things that I really enjoyed hearing about and learning. Thanx (+1 : 588)
