As an aspiring filmmaker, you guys have no idea how thankful I am to have your videos. Every week you help me learn so much, and honestly I would be lost without you guys teaching me the skills I need to know!! #nothingbutloveforfilmriot

It's a problem for non native English speakers. I had to slow down the playback speed and to turn the subtitles on. Would it be such a problem to talk a bit slower?
Thank you for this video. I hate looking up lighting techniques and only finding videos about three point lighting. I'm glad there's something out there that goes more in depth to actual basic _film_ lighting techniques.

Love this look at lighting terms and what they practically mean in video/film. It's easy to search up a WikiHow or some article on the web, but seeing it in action, as the light physically moves is a really good learning tool. This is awesome.

nice! its been a trend in online filmmaking tutorials that they are just mentioning the same things over and over but you guys are saying new and cool things that I have never heard of before like short siding and broad and all that stuff
you use the term broad and short to describe those two lighting positions. In my film school we also refer to those terms as far-side key & near-side key.
I was just recently having trouble with this. I pretty much mastered 3 point lighting. But I was just wondering how I could get good lighting without soo many light sources. This helped me a lot. Perfect timing!
Check out cinematography db's recent videos. He has a lighting workshop, where he covers some stuff you may like, also I plan to get more into it with my videos, if you're interested. Best of luck bro. (shameless plug below) I also have an ebook available for download that goes over beginner video lighting. Ask and you shall receive.
Ryan this was AMAZING! ive been waiting for you to get back to stuff like this. im a huge fan and have been for years but im not gonna lie i drifted away because i wasnt getting the more informative content but you won me back with this one. Much love duuuddeee. :)
I put a Philips Hue bulb in my soft box light so I can change the color temperature or add color to a scene. It's probably one of my coolest video lighting ideas yet!
Very helpful! I'm in the middle of moving from writing scripts to actually filming them, so this is extremely useful info (as always!). Thanks a bunch!
Great content, gave me some ideas. I'd also like to know how to prevent banding and artifacting in dimmly light places. I never figured out how to prevent these in-camera. I know that those things have to do with codecs and compression, but I know how to correct those. Just having a pitch black background without artifacting would be a great thing. Also what about lighting paint (e.g black ) without having a specular of the light?

hey yo FR, advice..... what would be a good lighting set-up for a low-angle pan up to reveal a antagonist for a suspense/thriller style film. Thanks, you are the BEST!!!! WSER

Congrats guys for 1M subs! Like your videos and your work :)
How does everyone go about feeding a cast over the course of a three-week long shoot with a small budget? Also, if you're interested, I'm a sixteen-year-old filmmaker and have made two big projects on this channel so far: The Sniper (a short film) and Art Less (web series)! I would love any type of feedback on any of my work. I am also based in New England and would love to connect with other young filmmakers in the both tri-state areas.
Cheapest way would be to go to a market daily and purchase bread, meats, cheeses, some salad options. Have some condiments on hand, and set up a make-your-own sandwich bar. Have clean, cold water on hand, and then buy a few cartons of soft drinks (or soda, as Americans call it), Gatorades if it's hot work, and some alternatives. Easier option would be paying a catering company to do the same, less drinks. But, don't skimp. Feed them well, feed them often.
I agree with what those two said, another option may be trying to partner with local companies. One may offer heavily discounted food in exchange for promotion (in the film, you make something specifically for them, etc.). But cheapest way is to have a good friend/family make stuff that can be made in large batches and is filling (rice, burgers, sandwiches, chips, mac n cheese, etc. Homemade cheap stuff).
As for feedback on your video - audio is a big issue. It's too varied, sounds pretty awful. Invest in some decent boom mics, or try and hide lav mics on people. If audio is too bad, redub. You also need to get your video stabilised. I couldn't watch the whole thing. You need better colour grading so your scenes match, as well as a more coherent script. I couldn't follow what was going on and gave up pretty quickly.
Film Wire : Farm Friends?! Drop subtle advertising for the people who fed you --> in my mind it's completely new branding. Start a mobile farm truck that also serves as your shelter while you're wherever you are rocking the world? Food not bombs with film? Something like that. Everyone bring ingredients that they could muster up and some genius goes to town cooking up killer meals on the spot? Nothing from experience obviously.... not yet
Always great info! Thanks! Question: In your garage lighting setup, did you light it brighter than what we are seeing and dim it down in post? Or light it for what we actually see? And which is better? Because I see you have a lot of great solid black areas. Thanks
00:33 holy shet isnt that the dude from the clone yourself tutorial still remember you guys been watching your video from when i started using alot of youtube which was like 2010 /2011 still love the tutorials :D
"Bout time you covered this, Ry-Guy! I've been waiting for you to give a general overview on lighting actors for a while, and not just misc. lighting tips. Jurassic World?

+tallguytrav Yeah. Very expensive, but industry standard for a reason for sure. There are solid cheap options as well. Those cans are great too. Super cheap.
thanks for teaching my 2 years lighting studies of my college in 6 mins.
That's kinda sad but ok

Yummy delicious lighting! It seriously changes the mood of any scene. Not the camera.
Ryan talks so fast but he never stutters. This is impossible, must be genetics...
+SuckYaMudda09 I'm a robot.
OMG!!!
Hahaha He reminds me of those horse racing and antique dealers who speak ridiculously fast :P
It's a problem for non native English speakers. I had to slow down the playback speed and to turn the subtitles on. Would it be such a problem to talk a bit slower?
I stuttered reading this.

All those triangles on peoples faces started to look like an Illuminati conspiracy video

Well there's only so much info available and a lot of it is common/shared throughout the community (unless youre innovating new techniques/names).
Film Riot really...lights...up my world...
See what ya did there mate͡° ͜ʖ ͡°

Just curious, how is your background such a "pure" black? Like no grain at all. Was it much brighter prior and you made it look darker in post? Thanks
Black backround, low iso (or camera with very good iso) and backlit

Film Wire whatever you do, feed them well as it keeps up morale and shows that you care.
Cheapest way would be to go to a market daily and purchase bread, meats, cheeses, some salad options. Have some condiments on hand, and set up a make-your-own sandwich bar.
