Hey, great video! Do you have any advice on how to make studio light look more natural if you don't have a real natural light source? Also, how can I get a soft light on the model if I don't have a big studio light and only a medium/smallish sized one? Thanks a lot xx
Try bounce flash off of a white ceiling or white wall. The ceiling or wall shouldn't be more than 10 ft away though. If you don't have a close ceiling or you're outside try bouncing off a white reflector.
The light stand you're using- is that what you use while traveling? Mine is the same (I think), but lugging it around on a plane or around a new city is extremely inconvenient. Can anyone give tips on a solid traveling light stand?
In the 20TH century I would have said find the nearest hu/man reading a newspaper and have them hold it up as a reflector, but why of walls a white vehicle ( for no color cast)or some other object/surface nearby might work as a reflector. You also might want to pose the subject against the sky, expose for the sky and bring up the shadows in post production/image processing with Raw files (some (Sonys and Nikons) mirrorless/DSLRs can do this without graing/noising up).
Here is something amazing about this guy: most photographers would place the flash to the opposite site of the window light, which would completely eliminate the 3D look, and the models would look like a flat piece of paper.
Instead he used the flashes as an extremely low power fill light to ease up the shadows that the natural light has created, and without eliminating the natural look of the image. This is how you properly use flash (depending on the look you are going for of course)
When most people hear about flash photography the always think of the high fashion "flashed in the face model" look. But with experience flash can behave like a super versatile reflector!
It's good to learn all this stuff for free... Thank you....
mangostreet! I want to express my gratitude to both of you! I dont know how to start in, but thankyou for every video you share upon us. its really inspiring and gaining knowledge about photography. Thankyousomuch mangostreet!!
You're amazing, guys! Thank you for all of your outstanding tutorials. Not only your videos are inspiring and very informative but you also manage to keep them simple and interesting to watch.
Daniel DeArco's style of explaining the lighting was fantastique
& Mango Street was cool as always.
The colors are so nice!!
Great video. Very helpful to a newer photographer who is not used to shooting with anything other than natural light. Keep the videos coming!
I don't know how I missed this video, got my bell pushed and everything. Great tutorial and how good is it to hear someone say you don't need super expensive kit. I don't go in the studio as much as I should, I really need to give myself a kick up the backside with this one.
*NOT A MODEL
*STILL NOT A MODEL
Me: yea...I'm just a potato 🍠
Your videos are always so short, simple, but so interesting and informational! Top notch, guys.
Thank you! This is great, concise content. I've always been intimidated by studio lighting, so this was super helpful. Please keep it up!
This is so great because I've only been shooting with natural light for most of my career. I've been almost afraid to add in flash because I wasn't completely sure on how it should be set up, or what would work best for me. Thank you guys! Keep up the great content.
This is probably in my top 5 favorite videos from you guys. You guys are an absolute joy.
Always happy about new videos from mango street ♥️
Woo! Daniel + Mango Street = photography gold
This is great I haven't seen a video done like this which shows the basics of flash. Great work guys keep it up.
Thanks for the tips and the new channel to follow ❤️
This is exactly what I needed! Thank you guys perfect video!
love it. totally bingewatching
notification squad ❤️❤️ this video was much needed for me lol right on time 😂💕
Please make a series out of your critique videos! It helps a lot! Watching others being told what they can do differently and whats missing is really encouraging, and helps add to what i'd want to fix with my photos and show me where i am at!
The Things They Carried is my favorite book!!
You guys are amazing. I love your videos - so well put together.
Love this one! great job!
this is soooo helpful you guys. I'm a natural light photographer and I'm moving to NYC next month, so definitely trying to get more into fashion and studio based stuff. this was awesome. keep it up, Mango Street!!
Awesome! Thanks for your work!
That was really great! Thank you!!!
Love this video guys!!💖
Awesome video guys! So cool! ♥ Love it!
I only just started using external flash last month and it opened up a whole new area fir my photography. This is a nice intro to lighting!
congratulations guys!! to all of you :) as a photographer i really enjoy watching your videos. Even if i already know part of what you're talking about, there's always a trick, or something new to discover and learn! Keep up the good work :D love you
Great video again guys! I was just focusing on the lighting in both films and photos, this came out very helpful. See you again next week!
This is awesome. Really enjoy your videos!
Thank you so much for all your tips and videos! Really, it's so helpful! Thanks to you guys, I got in to a Photography school that I always wanted to go! :D
congrats!
phenomenal, n love the music, really set the tone, great explanation
You guys gotta pass this on to your sponsor- much respect. The Things They Carry is one of my favorite books. Great vid too lol
Thank you. Great explanation. Always learn new stuff from you.
Such a great tutorial. Thanks!
Loving your tutorials!
once again, lovely video and very interesting 😊
You guys are awesome 👏🏽! Thank you very much for sharing and educating us!
So awesome. Right when i at the point of investing in a "on location flash setup", one of my favorite you tube channels make a video about the subject. This just makes me even more wanna go for it and experiment. Thanks guys!
The most beautiful thing in the video was the litlle dog staring at the girl during the photoshoot. I´ve learned a lot with your videos guys. Thanks :D
Thank you veru much mango street! Appreciate it!
Love the things they carried. I have read it three times.
I love your videos so much i have learnt so many things that i had tried to before but never found new content
Thank you for your great content. You have inspired me to become a better photographer and gave me a lot of confidence.
I always learn something new from this channel!😊📸
Great as usual!!
Great tutorial, thanks!
This was great! Thank you so much!
This is a good tutorial... keep up with the great work guys :)
literally refreshing to see content with this level of talent and taste. annndd the videos are pertinent to the subject the whole video, every video, instead of the typical repeating of the same information worded differently..
not even bullshitting, it's a beautiful thing.
WONDERFUL BREAKDOWN.... I LOVE THE RECAP.
Truly enjoyed this video!!! Great explanation and reasons why ?? Which is the most important part !! Great job !!! Liked / subscribe'ed
I read the things they carried a couple years ago. It still sticks with me
This video is so good.
I think lighting is one of those things that can be kind of eluding, even to people with experience.
Please please please make more videos about lighting 👌
seriously got me inspired yall
Super helpful!
keep up the good work guys...
You guys are simply amazing. You guys made me buy a camera. My friends bought iphones or some other expensive stuff from their first pay. But I saved and bought a DSLR Canon EOS 700 D. It has been one of the best decisions I took :) Thank you guys !
that's great to hear!
Thank you awesome video
New learning。。 thanks guys!
Really good tips
This is beyond me and technical, yet it was communicated in layman's terms even I can grasp! Btw, they all look like models to me - cute puppy🐶
Simple and thank you📷😁👍
Hey. You guys are awesome
hahhaha "moody AF" and "surprise! mother-" got me so bad. Amazing video!!!
My favorite channel
Great episode!
Made me realize how I really don't connect with flashes. Maybe tops for getting that terry richardson stylized look of shooting in a total dark..but, otherwise....you get unnatural light on your subject and it feels out of place...you get shiny faces...weird shadows in the back. Of course, different strokes...so that's my personal thoughts...
Even a reflector could feel out of place sometimes..with too much light bouncing back, blinding your subject.. it's quite a challenge to fill that light into your model, and make it super subtle...
Woohoo, Nice!
😍 I really liked this video
Thanks!
I don't know how I ended here but this channel is great, new subscriber :D , greetings from Argentina!
This was actually the first time I saw flash because useful! Sick.
Love it ! Looking forward for the english subtitles, as a french speaker I didn't understand some parts of the video.
This video was super helpful. Could you create a similar video using a speedlight?
I'm glad I can have a mango to start my Monday off right 🙄
#cheesyaseff
GOOD WORK , THANK YOU
This is too good
How did he do that clip on the sharpie flip? I loved it.
Cool video! I've only got a speedlite with a little plastic diffuser and a bounce card. Am I able to still pull off these looks with the one flash?
Hi Samuel! You can achieve a hard light setup no problem. Though for softening the speedlite, you'd want to bounce it off a large white wall to increase the size of the light source (while keeping the subject close to that wall). You can also buy a thin, translucent/silk piece of fabric from the fabrics store, hold it up using a light stand, and aim the speedlite through that. Some people have used bed sheets. Hope that helps!
Plz tell me which soft box you have used for the last image... As well as the grid?? And probably the light is godox ad600b if i m not wrong??
Hi! I'm a beginner in photography and I've already learned so much from your videos! Thank you :) also, I took a photography class but I'm still having issues on knowing which settings to use depending on location, time of day, etc. any tips? Thank you!
Lots of practice and experimentation! Once you do it enough, it becomes second nature and you don't even have to think about it too much.
Great tutorial. Misspelled photographer in the last slide, but great video. Keep them coming!
I love that you use more Dreampop/Postrock-ish music instead of that overused Lifestyle/feelgood-pop that ist common in photography tuts and on TH-cam in general. Was that "We lost the Sea" in one video? or just something similar?
thank you
I love the photographer
How would you guys use a reflector? Plz make video on that.
Can you do this with a continuos light source, such as a led light. I'm more into video production and I don't have any flashes.
it is soooooooooooooo amizing
Please, please, please make this a series. There are so many concepts that amatuers have no idea how to dive into. Like lenses or choosing locations.
We have videos for lenses and choosing locations already, ya goof!
Could you do a video on how to choose the location for shootings? For example, for a red dress
Awesome video as usual guys! Also, will someone please tell me whats the name of the song used in this vid? Thanks!
Man you guys should do a local Photography Meetup/group! Plus I want to meet your dog :D
i really like looking at Rachel's face lol shes so pretty;!
Can i ask why did u name your channel Mango Street? Also we read the House of Mango street for school. Cool
Hey Mango Street can do a video about Brenizer Method?
Best part is Rachel eyes seems judging him. Hahaha you’re awesome
