I am falling in love with lighting. It's an art in itself.
I really love the live video feedback instead of only photos! very helpful! great explaining as well
I like that method of showing the examples. Its so much easier to see. Glad you liked it.
Thank you JP! Great idea to explain light with live video instead of only shots. It makes it easy to understand!
Thanks I'm glad you like that approach. I think it works well. Have a great day!
Another well scripted, properly presented tutorial that makes the point clearly and succinctly. Very attractive model with loads of personality, although she has difficulty looking evil (which is not a bad thing...) Point is, the model works well with the photographer to convey the point of the tutorial, matching her expression to narrative, effectively demonstrating each point. Thanks . JT
Yes, she did a great job and she was great to work with!
OK, that opening was really cool. I'm hooked, now I have to watch the rest.
Great video as always. I loved the points of color and light relating to mood. Thank you JP!
Thanks, Matt!
Love the tennis balls in your light stands! Great video btw
Thank you, Siddharth!
@@TheSlantedLens : I may have to remember that trick in the future.
Thank you for being so practical about images, JP.
Thank you for watching, CJ!
thank you Mr. Morgan. you are a true genius and a great teacher.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for this video. I think it answers why I have not been quite satisfied with using gels. I was not factoring in the emotion aspect. I will now!
For me just watching these videos is the best prize I can get as I learn new techniques and more. Great teacher, mentor, and photographer. Keep it up.
Thanks, Felix! Compliments like yours make my day:)
JP, I’ve watched a lot of TH-cam videos, to many really on light… they are all great teachers… I just always seem to find your videos more educational to my needs! My learning style … thank you good Sir.
Wow, thank you! So glad you are finding them helpful!
This video deserves more views!! Amazing demonstration.
Thanks Josh! Please share it on social media so that others can learn as well :)
Great advice Jay P.! A wealth of possibilities.
Thanks so much for watching.
Wow, she looks so similar to Esme Bianco (the actress who played Ros on GoT) 😮😮
And great tutorial btw!!
This channel makes me laugh in a good way. Plus its educational.
Education doesn't have to be dull and boring!

Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for the feedback!
Keep sharing these kind of videos ❣️🙏
Thanks
You are welcome. Thanks for watching!
Well done. Clearly explained. Nice to see you go beyond the "how" but into the "why" you would use light in an expressive manner.

Great content!!! I love learning about lighting!!! Keep it coming! Thanks 🤟
Thanks! Will do! You might enjoy the rest of our Laws of Light series!
This is great content - super helpful!
Great video, love the explanation and the demonstration of lighting placement. I think my subjects are to close to the background making more difficult to control each individual light.
How far away is your subject from the background in this video?
well done. I need to watch this one again.
Thanks, Dayton!
Gosh, I just love videos like that!!! :D
Thanks, Karl! I'm glad you liked it!
Brilliant and easy to follow video, certainly in with your best.
Great to hear. I love the study of light.

Good to hear. Thanks for your feedback!

You're welcome. Watch our entire Laws of Light series for a complete guide: th-cam.com/video/dbd-zWynkOs/w-d-xo.html
you are the best!
Thank you! I appreciate that!
Great overview, though it doesn't solve the question I've been seeking an answer to... Could you do a video specifically on gels and why they still matter in this day and age where you can use layer blending modes in GIMP or Photoshop (or whatever digital retouching tool) to change the colors? I have a hard time grasping why I couldn't just shoot everything with uniform lighting/temperatures and then change the colors of certain areas in post. Very few (if any) people touch upon this subject.
Hey Jeff! I actually just posted a lesson on gels that you should check out! bit.ly/2tnWqCA
Sir Cab u upload a complete tutorial that how to decide foot candle bu using metre n on the basis of aperture n iso n then how to set white balance On all kinds of light n when to use gel.. Apart from that how to match window sunlight to the indoor one n bring the foot candle of sunlight equal to ni indoor light set up plz
Love the intro lol
Nadia is beautiful and very funny! Great stuff JP!
Thank you and thanks for your commetn!
Grandpa's studio has more tennis balls than a tennis court.
What's that large soft box you bring in at 6:36? Looks great for a nice soft key light.
That's a Dynalite Rime Lite Softbox. Here's a link- bhpho.to/2safcBM. In the future you can find all the links to the products we use in our lesson at theslantedlens.com/
I don't know if someone noticed or not 1:14 tennis balls under the light pods interesting I have so many spare balls I can apply that planning in doing my own proper studio soon
Yeah, they work out great. You might be interested in this video: th-cam.com/video/mGnclWWy03Q/w-d-xo.html
i still love those tennis balls!
Still using them. We need them to protect the floor.
SUPER. SUPER , THE BEST

Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
nice talk about
How these videos (together with separation with light) have only so few views?
And credits to the talent.
She was great.
What soft box did you use with the aputure 120d

like the very end of the video :)
Thanks for viewing the video. Good luck with your shoots!
She reminds me very much of SHARON TATE, wow!
SUPER ..
Thank you. Glad yo liked it!
U r excellent
Thank you so much 😀. Hope you learned some good stuff!
Any tips for shooting a big bald head besides baby powder to cut the glare?
Flag the light with a net to let less light onto the bright area.
@@TheSlantedLens Great! I just watched the video on flags and nets and I didn't see the explanation of the silky flag, how it changes the light. Diffusion maybe?
cool
Glad you liked it. Appreciate your comment!
JP Morgan is the best! Thank you
Okay, so now am actually cringing coz am shooting my first feature film and I didn't put much effort into knowing a whole lot about lighting and now am realizing just how much more I'd have done to make the DP work easier. Thanks JP. It's a good cringe btw. Thanks for helping.
Thanks for the feedback! Hope your film project turns out great!
3:40
Your model is having way too much fun. ;)
This could easily be expanded to a one hour tut to deal with much of the stuff you hint at, or to simply expand on what you are saying. Bring her back and all the watchers will crash the servers. ;)
Thanks for the suggestion, Herman! We'll see what we can do:)
You have got to use her more. Looking gorgeous in front of the camera is easy. Having fun is another matter, and it is contagious.
What exactly is the 1:4 ratio?
I see, thank you very much
We have a video on Ratios that explain it in detail. th-cam.com/video/QTah36HPTPs/w-d-xo.html
Moon light..
nice to see an older model not 20-30 year old girls like usual
We ended up with some really nice portraits of her.
lol im here 2022
Hope you learned some good stuff!
pause @0:03 😐
I just think that you lost 4 minutes talking instead of going straight to the point!
there is no right or wrong, only lights and shadows
You are so right.
Very beautiful girl.
That background music is way too hyped up
no matter what angle of light u use, she always comes out beautiful. So, no, it does not illustrate scary lighting so well, sry, lol.
Maybe not with her face.
way tooo much blah, blah, blah.
she is so cute =))
Hope you learned some good stuff. Thanks for watching!
she is beautiful
Hope you learned some good stuff!
@@TheSlantedLens for sure :)
