I just came across this video that you created that is very useful. I agree about testing that is something I do more often than shooting at times so I can get the right exposure for me and the look I am looking for. Thank you again for sharing this video really enjoyed it.
Very helpful. I use a Sekonic L478DR with the dome and, switchable, a 5° viewer reflective measurement add-on. I bought it after watching Joe Brady's videos. Now, I can go a step further thanks to yours. THANK YOU, Mark!
Excellent video with lots of great information. Thanks for sharing. BTW, it's nice to see your beautiful shots of Montana. From another MSU grad, from your past - Scott Armstrong
How come when I spot meter my camera to the black board that came with the Sekonic Profiler II, the difference is only 1 stop from the spot reading on the 18% grey.
Thanks Mark this is a good video of the metering methods. Do you also find with cinematic type film you would expose for the shadows in zone 5? Most c41 negative film likes overexposure or placing shadows in zone 5. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. My thoughts are with film type as portra 400, fuji 400h, portra 160 and so on.
Very interesting indeed.I don’t shoot any video at all but always use a spot meter for 120 film, and I love using my 70 year old Weston Master II for 35mm but I never print that above 8x10 mainly due to the restrictions of my darkroom gear.
@@homelessboy92 We are talking about nomination for Best Cinematography, and you are full it. As long as I can remember every person who has been nominated has been a master craftsman, still learning maybe, but masterful none the less. Prove me wrong.
Thank you sir
This is what I was looking for. Thank you very much. Understandable and logically explained.
Brilliant. Thank you. Nicely communicated, suggesting... Experiment, learn, test, go on your own journey as you have! Love it.

This is so great, but there seems to be much more episodes of this. Where to find the full version of this or more episodes?
Search "Film School with Mark Vargo, ASC" and you will find the series.
No doubt a teaser to make you pay for it
Thank you so much.
At last i understand the relationship between incident and spot metering.
I will definitely test test and test spot metering.

Finally!
@5:00 you must exchange numerator with denominator to get the RIGHT result ;-)
Could you recommend a couple of light meters? Thanks!
made my day.
Thanks very informative
thank you ssooooo much
makes a change to get advice from an Academy nominated ASC then the plethora of well-meaning yet less qualified photographers and cinematographers
academy award nominations do not equate to a premier level of skill or talent, not to say this man is not talented.

05:17 my maths brain has just exploded
Something is not correct with his formula. 8640/180 does not equal 1/48th. It equals 48 so close but clearly he has missed out a step or two.
@@ozbaz99 He forgot to mention that you always put this number under a "1" to give your shutter speed.
