Hi Jeven, you got yourself an amazing video here. Wow. So easy to understand. You're a great teacher. BTW, I had to take a guess, and Google what a "white cyc" was... couldn't spell it correctly either, so thanks Google ! ..... for those wondering here's one definition. You learn something everyday don't ya ! ---> 'Cyc' is an abbreviated term for cyclorama, also referred to as a cyclorama wall or cyc wall. Webster defines a cyclorama as "a curved wall used as a background of a stage set to suggest unlimited space."
Hi Jeven, thanks a lot for the tutorial. I lit my background just like you did, leaving a bit of grey shadows on the floor, but now playing with the curves alone doesn't do the job removing them completely. Could you explain what other steps could be helpful to bring it to perfect white while maintaining nice skin colors and so on?
Hello ! Thanks for the great video ! I'd like to shoot in a similar configuration but with 10 to 15 persons for a choreography (some people behind others) do you think I will get very bad shadows or is it maneageable ?
I went through 15 different videos in TH-cam and this one was only one what actually showed what is being used for background lighting. But can you do it with cheaper possibilities. I have 2 200 dollars lighting and white background but whatever lights I use for background, it still comes off grey. What light do you recommend? My budget is max 500 dollars
Great video - thanks! I have a question, though - as I seem to have screwed up a setting somewhere. I've been shooting on a white screen background for a while. Everything's been great. But all of a sudden I'm starting to get a sort of thick fuzzy black outline around the subject (me). I've obviously changed a camera setting somewhere. It seems to be an exposure thing, but I can't figure out how to fix it. Any suggestions?
I have a problem when I'm recording a video on white background the skin looks a lot darker than it is, when im shooting on dark background i don't have this problem how can i fix it ? My lights are ordinary softboxes.
hi, can you make videos on how to make video like youtube channel KAND HAYATI /LIZIQI / BAKE IT UP WITH NOTCH,? I really wanna know how they can make video so bright, sharp and the color also amazing. BTW, I WATCH YOUR VIDEO A LOT .
Hi Jeven, so you moved the white above 100, you say bringing the white level "down" on luma curve, I thought that's not a good idea going above 100? thanks for the video!
Depends on what you're trying to achieve. 100 is complete white. So if you're going for that ultrawhite background look then you bring the luma up to 100. If you want a little information in there then you bring it just under
Great vid dude. Not tried this with video but when shooting stillsI find its much easier to increase the rear lights by a stop or two causing the background to overexpose and need less work in post, is it not the same in video?
Is it possible to have the camera moving on an infinite white background and maintain consistency throughout? Example: following subject as they walk parallel to the camera. Or does the camera need to be stationary while rolling?
Well if someone had a studio with that many lights that’s great. What if I don’t have four lights to light the background? I own three lights that’s it. 😕
Exactly what I was looking for was surprised there weren’t more vids on TH-cam about it
I too
I wish someone made a video explaining shooting product photography with a white background to this level of detail. Great video.
Well done Jeven!! And Rachel for the assist! Good seeing you guys
Can you show how to do it WITHOUT renting a 3000 dollar studio?
Addicted todatube lollll!! Exactly!
yeah on greenscreen
Lol exactly
thats really my question
You simply can't so move on to different ideas.

Always grateful that you share your knowledge!
Hi, which lights you using for whitening this background?How much power or lux i need?

If you do not have enough seamless paper, are you making a garbage matte in post to fill in the sides?
Can you please tell me what software you used for making background white ??
this is awesome man and very well explained! great job guys
Doing this, this week. Thanks.
Hello ! Thanks for the great video ! I'd like to shoot in a similar configuration but with 10 to 15 persons for a choreography (some people behind others) do you think I will get very bad shadows or is it maneageable ?
Great video!! Wondering if one can use this process for shooting Slog? Ultimately handling things in post?
Same process. Just throw a LUT on while shooting so you are not looking at log while filming. That way you can use the false color
cool video, would love to see how you use false color to film a green screen shoot. I normally just eye it with no measurement.
Can anyone help where does he get those background lights from, the 4 ones that are located on the ceiling
they usually come with the studio once hired
Learning so much, thank you!

Great Video! Thank you very much
Hey is there a more like DIY way of achieving this look. I don't have the budget for all of the expensive lights or a large studio
Do you have a video of colorgrading white bg videos
Soooo....how do the rest of us do this in our garage at home with cheap lights and a white cloth?
Get a few bags of cement and buckets of white paint

Wow , you really won my heart today. Thanks so much for this video
Excellent video! Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much brother. :)
Great tips Jeven, you always make great vids
Thanks for doing this. Can you provide the exact brand of the lighting suspended from the grid above the cyc?
My question too!
You're in the construct
really cool video, but its expensive of lighting. its an expensive effect. is there any other way
❤️… Is it possible to get that seamless bright white look shooting on an iPhone?
Yeah but the HDR might mess with it. Probably should shoot without it if you're doing this style
The video is awesome! May I ask what kind of light did you use for the background?
Always thought you were hiding a bald head haha. Thanks for another great tutorial.
Did you use the GH5 to show the false color? Really nice tips for lighting and exposure.
Thanks!!
Hey Jeven, so if a subject had on like a white dress shirt or anything white, would this method blow it out ? If so is there a way to avoid that?
Always had problems doing this, now use a green screen and add the type white i want for background now.
Will it achieve the same result or the edge will have sharp contrast?
@@GigawingsVideo better, it will be very uniform as in contrast to using a concentrated beam
@@Sirjohnny Thank you.
Bro greatful to have knowledge from you🙌
What lens are you using on your camera? and what camera monitor are you using as the exposure tool?
Gh5. I use the atomos ninja v monitor
Bright white bright light
I have a problem when I'm recording a video on white background the skin looks a lot darker than it is, when im shooting on dark background i don't have this problem how can i fix it ? My lights are ordinary softboxes.
btw is it basically the same thing if you want to do this but with a black background?
hi, can you make videos on how to make video like youtube channel KAND HAYATI /LIZIQI / BAKE IT UP WITH NOTCH,? I really wanna know how they can make video so bright, sharp and the color also amazing. BTW, I WATCH YOUR VIDEO A LOT .
GREAT VIDEO. Now Im subscribed !

How do you spell white syke
Excellent. Thank you. Like
Muy útil. Very useful. Thank you so much
What is the Kelvin of the light used?
Great vid dude. Not tried this with video but when shooting stillsI find its much easier to increase the rear lights by a stop or two causing the background to overexpose and need less work in post, is it not the same in video?
Is it possible to have the camera moving on an infinite white background and maintain consistency throughout? Example: following subject as they walk parallel to the camera. Or does the camera need to be stationary while rolling?
The camera can move. Not a problem.
Wat material was used for white background and the floor
so if its a colored backdrop, Im assuming you would light it differently?
This problem is let me crazy, every time need to change lighting to no shadows, maybe green screen can fix this problems?
Hi Jeven, Please what video editing software do you use?
It looks like Final Cut Pro from his video
Please where is your school located and More details
wat program did you use??
Thanks for that! Very informative and clear. ☘️🎄🎅☮️💪🏽🤠👍🏽☮️🎅🎄☘️
Pls I need to know what kin of wall do you have
It's a custom built wall.
Well if someone had a studio with that many lights that’s great. What if I don’t have four lights to light the background? I own three lights that’s it. 😕
I constantly look at the grey spot on the upper edge...

That's too technically macarena Jeven😂+ yoga posed. Thx.
Great video but Rachel got you the like and comment hahahahah
👌
Hi 👋
Love the background but I bet it cost thousands for that kind of studio setup. Not something that can be done by film maker in a budget.
Yes it can. You just rent a prelit white cyc by the hour. Super cost effective.
@@JevenDovey Not every country (or city) have studio rental. And many can cost a pretty penny.
GigawingsVideo probably about 100 per hour in a major US city

Ayy broo 29 hrs left for giveawat for dji osmo🙏
I never like the 100% white.... they look like cut outs and rhey are floating
