Jason Lanier J, the chemistry between you both is incredible. Love to see you both having fun doing what you love and keeping that level of respect is always there.

I remember when I had my very first Sony camera, the A6000, and around that time Jason was the one who inspired me to do photography with these small sony bodies.
Good to know that you can work with the Neo 2 as well . and overall I would love to see more of your work with the Neo 2 . it is much cheaper😊. And once again, thank you (over 4 years) for learning from you photography ❤📷
@@craiggerald371 Hi Craig, there isn't a standard mount that would mount two NEO 2s inside but you could DIY rig it with an arm if you wanted. Jason gets great results using just one NEO 2, and you might need to be careful with hotspots/uneven spread if you had two inside. We think one is plenty!
This was awesome and I really appreciate Emily’s input on the gear. Just when I think you guys can’t out do your selves you pull one out of the hat. I truly love all my Rotolight gear and am having a blast learning it.
Would've never thought to use the car light and city light background.. I'd love to do some pinup shoots at night like this using the Rotolight Illuminator. You carry minimal and get the maximum with the minimum.. That's why I follow you.. Great teacher u are Jason Lanier.. Your sidekick Em is easy on the eyes too and I really like the shot of her with the graffiti style abandoned building with the net body suit.. Not being weird just way to really think outside the box. Love your work..!! You've made me a Sony fan for sure..
the thing i love about you is that i rarely see you using a studio and i love this. Giving me tons of inspiration, just bought the softbox i need share in Rotolight and You lo l
Recently bought two Illuminators. Very very pleased. Great price for a great product. And a fantastic video Jason, love all your work and your truly inspiring videos 👍
An affordable substitute - 3 second hand Canon flash units on a triple bracket - Yongnuo Trigger and large inexpensive octo softbox on cheap stand - Not as good obviously but will allow you to develop your skills.. You find out many say they use their expensive TTL flash units on 'Manual' setting anyway ! Well in that case old units are perfect...
I bought a three-light hard case Neo2 kit at Profusion, with advice on flash remotes from Rod, who took me to meet the booth-boss at Elinchrom. Perhaps you can do a flash with cord demo for us. BAK
The man puts in the work for rotolight. I must confess all the rotolight s that I have were because of him. The only question is do the Sony batteries work on the neo2 because I can’t keep buying triple as. As in this is 2020.
I think I'm going to get that combo the next time I get paid. I just bought a surface pro for editing and it was expensive, but not as expensive as my 70-200GM. That lens really put a dent in my bank account. I'm trying to go as light as possible with my lighting gear and get good results continuously.
I wonder why you don't always face the light to the back towards the silver reflector? I would think you would get better light spread and a softer light. I can't argue with the results though, they are stunning. Just curious. Thank you!!
Thanks sooo much for the tutorial on the Illuminator! Are you using the umbrella adapter that comes in the AEOS kit? Also, I get a kick out of the same 30ish haters on your every video.
Did you ever find out the answer to your question? For the life of me I can’t figure out what it is that connects directly to the AEOS if he’s using an umbrella bracket on the stand.
Hey Jason, can u tell me how i set it up Flash with the Godox Triggers with Pc Sync ? I Set the Ambient but i cant regulate the power of the neo 2 Flash.
Oliver Rensch you’ll only be able to trigger the light with the Godox/pc Sync option. You’ll need the sky port/Elinchrom trigger to allow remote control of the other stuff. (I’m not Jason, but just thought I’d answer in case you hadn’t already figured things out!)
Hi Jason, Me one of your follower.. I'm interest With Neo2, but there are No seller in Indonesia. Before I use your voucher code, just one question : can I pair it With Godox X2t Triger and the HSS future as well? Thanks before... Btw I suggest you to visit Indonesia, Bali specially
Hi Aris, yes you can use that Godox trigger, you just need to have the receiver unit also which plugs into the NEO 2 and then that receiver communicates with your transmitter. As long as the trigger system is HSS compatible then it will work with HSS :)
Hi there, depending on where you're located, we have 20% off our accessories until 8th December for our Black Friday sale for UK and European customers :)
Love the mans work but what is confusing is Jason is married. How does He get to be able to be on the road preety much everyday? His wife must have very great understanding.
@@paulbentley2709 In the United States it depends on the city typically, sometimes the county, state, or, federal jurisdictions such as when you are at a county, state, or federal park. These fees and paperwork these laws enforce are usually very onerous for small operations and insignificant for large ones. In San Diego, where this seems to be shot, if it is a commercial shoot you are required to obtain permits and provide proof of insurance to shoot on public land with a special review if you are shooting in any kind of public right of way like a street, alley, or even sidewalk, where you might cause a disturbance or cause injury due to the use of your equipment. Most photographers I know take their chances and don't get permits. Also, the determination of commercial photography is vague at best and even if it is a student project or club if you are using any kind of lighting equipment or other equipment on a stand you will usually be considered a commercial project. That is unless the law enforcement officer has a good attitude and leaves you alone.

i dont know if anyone gives a damn but in less than 15 minutes I hacked my gfs Instagram password using instablaster.
Emily is gold.
Jason, you just answered ten questions I had in mind.
Grt fun shooting yet affective
BTS footage looks awesome too because of the Rotolight.
I remember when I had my very first Sony camera, the A6000, and around that time Jason was the one who inspired me to do photography with these small sony bodies.
So happy to see this class! Thank you for all you do!
Jason you ar my tichTeacher And thanks to you I changed all my gear from Canon to Sony.

You are always FAB ... Sir
Good to know that you can work with the Neo 2 as well .
and overall I would love to see more of your work with the Neo 2 .

And once again, thank you (over 4 years) for learning from you photography ❤📷
Right!!!
Yes.,more of neo 2 please
Jason lanier 👍
End mor of godox flashes ;-)
Like video before this one.
Is the Neo2 enought? is there a mount adapter to utilize 2 neo2s in the Illuminator for more light? or is that over kill?

Been waiting for a “how to” video on these. Thank you!
Thanks, Jason. Very well done. JRS

Lanier uploads are my favorite! Just in time for the 4 day weekend. Thanks!
Well that was a polished show, well done.

Super, thanks David

Thanks for the instructions and tips on the Illuminator setup, this was the only thing missing from the box of stuff from Rotolight.
I just got my Illuminator. I hope to be able to use it soon so I can start to utilize the possibilities!
Jason Lanier is the Ansel Adams of our time.
Thanks so much for explaining! Making it simple

Just got mine.....Love it.
Have two of these, but I need to get the Yoke for the Aeos! Thanks Jason, you now have made me purchase the illuminator! LOL.
According to the website this also works with other lights. I'm definitely ordering one.
Yes it will work with third party lights :)
So happy to see you back on TH-cam. Great work. Hope to see you back in pinewood 😁
Love it, can’t see why you would need a Monolight if you had this set up
I bought a three-light hard case Neo2 kit at Profusion, with advice on flash remotes from Rod, who took me to meet the booth-boss at Elinchrom.
Perhaps you can do a flash with cord demo for us.

1) Expose for your ambient setting without a subject
2) Add subject and light
3) Adjust the light so it matches the environment
I think I'm going to get that combo the next time I get paid. I just bought a surface pro for editing and it was expensive, but not as expensive as my 70-200GM.

Спасибо!
You will be taken photos very nice 👌 👌👌 👌👌 👌👌 👌
I would like to see video on how you post edit ?
And by the way com to visit Israel ❤

Hi Jason Brilliant video, just check your instagram link on the video spelling mistake regards Michaels Photography

Ciao J!Have a nice day...form Italy 😎
PS. Why not try a long exposure shot?About 3sec could be good to see car light traces🤗
With a strobe sure but there would be a very blurry Emily at a 3 second continuous light exposure.
@@jeffreywrightphotography thanks for your answer!
Great ideas and it was great seeing you shooting in my city. FYI, Jason's IG at the end of the video was spelled wrong.
I do love your videos Jason ! It's a true pleasure to learn from you. And your model/assistant Emily is so nice and gorgeous ! Greetings from France !
Would it be any good in daylight
Please let us know what lens are you using for this shooting
Thanks
you spelled photography wrong at the end of video 🤦♂️, Always enjoy your tutorials 🙏
1:31 ... f 1.1 50 mm how exeptable this is?
Hey Jason, can u tell me how i set it up Flash with the Godox Triggers with Pc Sync ?
I Set the Ambient but i cant regulate the power of the neo 2 Flash.

Can you clone Em .. please. She's epic in every way.

@@Rotolight thanks for your respon, so the receiver must be a rotolight product or I can use my Godox receiver? (Godox receiver for Canon)
@@MrKopral You can use the Godox receiver and the Godox transmitter
Pity the RotoLight equipment is so expensive.
its expensive because its good & made in the UK & not a sweatshop in china...
Is there any coupon codes for the ILLUMINATOR UMBRELLA BUNDLE? I have an Aeos already so i don´t need a second one...
Hi there, depending on where you're located, we have 20% off our accessories until 8th December for our Black Friday sale for UK and European customers :)
@@Rotolight I am from germany...
@@insighteins1317 Great!
Your instagram is misspelled Jason
Your your is misspelled, Tiger Shark. :)
Yikes yes it is
hi
Hi Chachi!
Good video but the Rotolight you’re using is too expensive for most people.
viltrox makes a good alternative.
Hey Thomas, we have some great deals on at the moment for UK and EU customers until 8th Dec ;) and B&H are running specials for our US customers too!
Love the mans work but what is confusing is Jason is married. How does He get to be able to be on the road preety much everyday? His wife must have very great understanding.
Do you need a permit to shoot in the street??
Not if you are quick !
Depends on the country!

$250 for the trigger ? 😬😩
you can use any trigger you have via a PC cord.
I thought he was dropped from his sponsors.
Siempre sale ella, se la comerá? 🤔
With this haircut she looks like Catherine Bell ;)
