Full versions are over on Patreon - they are split into parts to keep releases more consistent here on TH-cam. This way I don’t have to go a month or more without releasing a video! I’m super happy you’re enjoying my work so much, thank you so much!!
Awesome! I especially like the look that you gave that book at 6:08. Oh man, what did that book ever do to you to have you so pissed at it? Haha! Love this channel!!
Amazing video! For the shot with the picture frames, what colour temperature were the lights set to? And what white balance was your camera set to? Love the warm look
Rob whenever I watch your videos I notice myself just silently shaking my head in disbelief that the information I'm being presented with is so informative, concise, and FREE. I appreciate all of the effort you've put into your channel that I've been able to use to my advantage
I really appreciate it Gabe - super happy you're finding my videos valuable and that you've been putting some of the ideas and techniques from them into practise!
Rob's new video !!🎉 I thought it is the best Cinema Lighting Tutorial in TH-cam ! can't wait to see and repeat every detail in your video all night again and again .
Whenever i watch your videos i feel like i’m in a blues clues episode on steroids but about cinematic lighting. I’m focussed on the subject matter no matter what you present
Thank you so much for your support - I massively appreciate it and I’m glad you’re still enjoying my videos! I would love to add subtitles in a number of languages, but unfortunately it would be a little too much work for just me!
I’m not massively familiar with Discord and I prefer a proper message board over a chat room style (I actually have a message board, Patrons can access it!) - but I could be persuaded?!
I'm from Uganda. When watching these lighting videos, I feel like you need expensive lights and equipment to create good lighting. Can't I archive these kind of lighting with house household lights like led t5 tube or led bulb.?
Of course! Take the first setup - you could bounce the key light from a long bed sheet instead and replace all the lights with ones that you already own!
Thanks Paul! They are actually sponsoring this series - you’ll also be able to find these videos on their own TH-cam channel sometime after I’ve uploaded here!
Could you have put some diff on the projection mount to soften the shadow a bit? So opal or super light diff just to blend and soften the shadow a bit. I found it a bit distracting, either way amazing information as always! Thank you Rob!
Adding any sort of diffusion would start scattering the precise beam - maybe not so much if it was super super light - but I’m not sure it would make a noticeable difference at that point! I don’t think a general audience would notice, and that’s who we light for! Thank you so much, I hope you’re enjoying the series! ☺️
Really useful video, thanks so much for putting the time into these my dude! Really helps expedite the transition away from just pointing a camera at stuff and clicking record!
This is genius. A lot of thought goes into lighting. People dont realise this very often. Pls dont stop this series. Its very informative and encouraging for us.
rule #1: never skip a Rob Ellis video
Haha if rule 2 is never skip leg day I'm glad I placed above it! Hope you enjoyed the video!
Can confirm
Facts!
@@RobEllisCinematographerrule #2 : never forget rule #1. That’s right, we’re a cult now 😂
He will brood in your dreams if you do. 😂
my only complaint about these videos is WHY ARE THEY SO SHORT?!!! Keep up the amazing work man; it's truly amazing

These are my favourite videos about lighting! So goooood!
Beyond happy to hear that! I hope you continue to enjoy the series - thank you so much!!
I’ve been doing everything wrong. Thanks for the education
LOVED THIS. why not defocus the spotlight on the book so it cast a soft shadow?
Awesome! I especially like the look that you gave that book at 6:08. Oh man, what did that book ever do to you to have you so pissed at it? Haha! Love this channel!!
Haha happy to hear you’re still enjoying the videos (and me frowning at objects) - thank you so much!
Loving these videos!
Thank you so much Steve, happy to hear it!
You're a genius....
I really wanna meet you and learn more...
Not at all, just learning and practise! But I massively appreciate the sentiment, thank you so much! I hope you're finding my videos helpful!
Amazing video! For the shot with the picture frames, what colour temperature were the lights set to? And what white balance was your camera set to? Love the warm look
Great video!
Thank you so much - happy you enjoyed it! :)
🔥🔥🔥👍🏻
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
We need a feature length trilogy of Rob just narrating himself setting up lights.
Haha I think that would just be a longer version of these videos!!
Rob whenever I watch your videos I notice myself just silently shaking my head in disbelief that the information I'm being presented with is so informative, concise, and FREE. I appreciate all of the effort you've put into your channel that I've been able to use to my advantage

I second that Gabe. This channel is so good that I can’t NOT donate with a clear conscience 🤣
All the best Rob! Cheers to your successes.
@@RobEllisCinematographer no lie i feel the same as well you the one that got me into buying lights
Rob's new video !!🎉
I thought it is the best Cinema Lighting Tutorial in TH-cam !
can't wait to see and repeat every detail in your video all night again and again .
Thank you so much! I appreciate how much you're enjoying my videos - hope you can continue to enjoy them! 😄
Your approach to technique is one of the most clear and concise on the platform. Thanks for the hard work.
Wow thank you so much - I massively appreciate it!!
Whenever i watch your videos i feel like i’m in a blues clues episode on steroids but about cinematic lighting. I’m focussed on the subject matter no matter what you present
Haha I've never seen Blues Clues but I'm super happy you're finding my videos so engaging- thank you so much!!
I love your videos, I've been following you for a long time, I hope you have enough Spanish-speaking viewers to subtitle the tutorials.
Thank you so much for your support - I massively appreciate it and I’m glad you’re still enjoying my videos! I would love to add subtitles in a number of languages, but unfortunately it would be a little too much work for just me!
I still can’t believe all of these are free to watch on TH-cam! I’ve learned so much from watching your videos. Thank you 🙏
I think a Rob Ellis discord server whould be really nice. A place where we can share our cinematography, get inspired or learn from others!
I’m not massively familiar with Discord and I prefer a proper message board over a chat room style (I actually have a message board, Patrons can access it!) - but I could be persuaded?!
@@RobEllisCinematographer Mabye you could do a poll about it here on youtube, i think a server whould be really appreciated!
Always a pleasure to learn from your videos ! Thanks Rob :))
Thanks Mika - always happy to hear it! :)
Another amazing, soothing video with perfect lighting techniques from the Light Whisperer.🙌
Glad you enjoyed it Bo! Thank you! ☺️
Are you using an ND filter or a high shutter speed? It seems like in real life that table lamp alone would flood the whole room with some light?
Make a video on outdoor and natural light

Love the attention to detail in this - I definitely learned a few things.
Glad to hear it - thank you so much for watching! :)
Wow! That was awesome! Thanks you!! Can't wait for the next installment.
Glad you're enjoying the series - thank you so much!
I'm reminded of Roger Deakin's lighting setup which is amazing
I like to borrow the "cove" light from time to time, makes for a beautiful graduated light across the face!
Yah the king returns 😀
Definitely not a king haha but I'm happy you're enjoying my videos! :) Thank you so much!!
I'm 👍 #600 , another great informative video Rob .

Great vid as always Rob, you have so many lights now. Do you have a sponsor with Nanlite ? if not they should.
