I’ve been stumbling on more and more cinematographers with less than 1k subs and all the knowledge is so much better than the big TH-camrs because I know these small youtube channels are actually working cinematographers
This!!!
Who are they? I’m looking for some people to learn from.

This was legitimately a better education on cinematic lighting than my 4 year film degree gave me. Budget restraints or not.
always find that these types of smaller channels give way better advice and tips to the average person starting out. great video!!
I love it when they say "budget" and then go use lights and gear that are worth thousands of dollars.
This is gold for amateur and budget filmmakers dude. Can't wait to try out some of these tips. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Bruh, only 100 views??? That’s madness. Really quality stuff in this video. Thanks for the info.
Thank you! I’m gonna keep these coming for anyone interested
Holy crap this video was super solid. Love the short and concise approach, actual industry tips, the science and the art of it. S tier video. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Great video!!!! love the way to explain and show how everything can be achievable
Keep this stuff coming. Love to see another Pittsburgher pursuing film and sharing their thoughts and knowledge. Thank you 🙏🏻
Looking forward to more from this channel. Refreshing to see a real industry DP share some knowledge
@4:33 with the upside-down book. 😆 Thanks for the advise. Excellent demos.
These tips are so valuable, Mitchell! Amazing insights, really like how you put this together too 👌
What a brilliant video . Thanks for sharing
So much valuable content in a less than 10mins video! Kudos
Great tips🙌great explanation
tysm I have the book knowledge of how to use lights but didn’t necessarily know how exactly to go about using them so this helped a lot!
Definitely helpful.
Thanks man.
Yo this video was Wavy! I throughly enjoyed it! Keep making content man!
This was indeed super useful man!❤
Such a cool video! Great work 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for the knowledge 🙏🏼
great content and well presented.
Thank you.
First person to say Low Budget and actually mean it.
Really clear, practical, pleasant video. Great job !
Thank you !
One small advice/opinion : the yellow of titles is too dark on dark backgrounds (not very legible with such fine typo).
With love ✌
This is definitely going into a playlist!! SUBBED!!!🔥🔥🔥
What bro, you are amazing. Your video deserves a 5 star
Incredible video.
standing applause for this friend who shares the percentages used in every light, thank you friend, you are unique in all the platform worldwide, thank you, thank you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻, I subscribe
Great vid man.
Thanks man, good stuff
Loved it thank you so much !
Bro, WTF! this was so educational. I am a cinematographer and work in marketing. Learned so much from you in a couple of minutes than any other place. You gained a subscriber and a fan!
Dope video. The Panavision hat really sells it. I feel like every section needed an additional "...and make sure that shit is back lit"
I agree. Backlight everything. Reverse your key!
You really made it look simple Woww nice content 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️
Thank you I learned a lot!
Fantastic!
this is awsome
loved the vid!
Amazing!
Love it dude, let’s get you to 1k subs!
Good stuff man
Great Video!
Really liked your Video. Even as an experienced photographer / videographer I could draw some new ideas from your setups. Also: Nice slippers.
wonderful.
Good stuff!
Here before 1k subs... you leveled up my career in less than 2 mins!
solid stuff
Hey love the advice of using trash bags😄🤙🏼 I take them everywhere with me to film. Your style is really nice🍿
you did good!
This definetly inpsired me to go try some new lighting techniques and got you a new subsriber, because if they rest of your content is like this, you deserve a lot more. (and they'll come soon!)
Good stuff. Subscribed also!
Talent
thankk you . very usefull :)
good shit
6k Views and 884 Subs and making this 885 subs, Thank you for the great content
very informative
Hey that’s me!
Nice one. Glad you got to redeem the rental! I just missed an opportunity to buy a set of arri lights for 4 bills and I let them get away. A pair of 350s and a pair of 650s.
I’m considering getting myself a small set for little personal projects, as well as these videos. I’ll have a whole G&E truck and I still use the tungsten units.
Wear you gloves@@mitchellbrinkerdp. I wanted to buy that kit to do a video for my channel on the VisionSmith LED bulbs you can get for the Arri lights. I'd seen a couple instances where people had done it with good results. One guy did burn himself pretty bad though. He had the original bulb in one light and the led in the other and grabbed the wrong one. Had to feel bad for the guy. Anyway, rave on, great content.
Heya Mitchell, amazing video. I wanted to ask what color temp you were shooting at during your cove light set up. Thanks!
I want to say I was shooting 4300k and then shifted it where it got to in davinci.
In the first frame of this Video I thought you had One leg. 😮
🙏
Immediately subscribe after reading other comments
excelent video ! how does she read up side down? 😅
Reading the book upside down in bed!
Maybe she's dyslexic and need to flip the book to read it right 😂
❤❤❤
👌
would love a color grade tut!!
Im thinking about putting together a video on color grading and LUTs. Probably within the next 3 videos.
do you use dehancer?
@@mitchellbrinkerdp
Quality Content! Are you using Davinci?
Thank you! I’m using davinci for my editing and grading. I’m using Filmbox for color specifically.
Yea I was surprised at how it looked like film, nice job. I would check out dunna did it channel. He's got some helpful davinci tutorials. @@mitchellbrinkerdp
Im using Quicktime as the Format, H.264 as the codec. I think Im supposed to set the quality to restrict it to like 40,000 Kb/s, but I have it on automatic currently.@@mitchellbrinkerdp
which font you used
Something that I think is important is to watch your stuff on a big TV. Now I might be wrong, but I think your grain is wayyyy tooo much! On a 55 inch it looks a bit much. But I suppose it's subjective. Just doesn't look like film, just looks like artificial grain turned up too high.
But the video is really good btw. Just thought I'd say.
Hey man, I’m in OC if you ever want to connect! Great video!
What grain u using here?
This is the internal grain texture on the Alexa 35 pushed to the max setting
its beautiful @@mitchellbrinkerdp
I’ve just been violated
4:33 lol :-)
Brilliant, I’d sub 1000 times if I could
The important takeaway, is that I had the same mini-fridge.
Bobbbaaayy!
how much grain do you want? yes
I love it
🦑
You said a lot of words that i don't know lol
I agree I spoke a lot in terminology I’m gonna do that a little less
bro is talking bout cheap lighting tecniques and filming on alexa 35☠ hahahaha but video is cool very nice
ik its deliberate but god i cant watch a 7 minute video with that grain
I'm a big fan of cinema and films but I don't know what you're referring to with "cinematic lights". Your video looks nothing lile Mad Max or West by North West.
Cinematic is mostly just a buzzword. I have a video I’m working on debunking “cinematic” and the “feature film” look. As for these setups, these are crude poor man’s versions of lighting setups/techniques that are used on larger sets. Same ideas just scaled way down. Can be a simple way to get some looks.
