Every single video you make is like a little nugget of gold. I can fill a sandbag with them now.
Serious quality jump in this video. Keep em coming.
I LOVE YOU! This is an amazing video. So needed before the busy season.
hahahha your bloopers are genius. Thank you for this video. This is something I've been needing to step up my game in. I appreciate you, Kraig.
GOLD as always! We are on our 8th month in our first year of wedding filmmaking and its been quite a ride lol. Kinda like shooting a riot everytime haha. But we learn more each time we do it.
This is one of the most helpful wedding tutorials ever! Thank you
Such a knowledgable head on young shoulders, well done young man! Love your info vids & tutorials
Firstly, bloody well done sir. The info and execution was just perfect.
Secondly, we would have SO much fun working together (and do remarkably well at the same time).
Ash Tailor Can't wait for you 2 to collaborate
this is the best weddingfilmschool video yet!
No bowtie. Unsubscribed. Sandbag it. Resubscribed.
2 identity crises over the duration of one video ;)
ha
What happened to phase out? I'm glad there is new WFS content :) Thanks Kraig!.
Very well made, thanks rain !
Dude! you again made this ana amazing video that helps! without noticing we have been doing something similar! but you put it in word nicely!!! amazing content!! big hug!
love this setup
Love you Kraig, great video!
Best channel. I don't even shoot weddings. Is always good to come here to learn something different and laugh a bit. Peace Kraig.
I replayed that cut away and dad joke 5 times lol Thanks Kraig
👍 love your content, keep it up!
Thanks alot Kraig! You da man man!
Great video, concise and to the point 👌
I was hoping you'd talk about lighting more than just the toasts, since there's a lot more to receptions than just them, namely the grand entrance of the wedding party and dancing. I find I always have trouble lighting entrances due to the fact that the party members have erratic dances and paths through the crowd that make it neigh impossible to prepare lights for them
man you good! thanks again!
interesting idea, I love how the light look, but I kind of like the toast to be natural and let the person walk where they feel comfortable, of course that's not a good idea, but I guess until I have the level to hire someone to monitor the light so they can deal with it while I shoot, then I'll definitely go your suggestion route, this is really helpful. Thanks!
Very useful as always
Thank you so much for video it's very helpful 👏👏👍👍👍
Another great video!
Thank you for this
Extremely informative
Great Vid. At the begining you show the camera was set at 1.8 iso 1000 .. It would have been nice to see what you adjusted on the camera to the lighting work.
Thanks Kraig ! 👍
Hi Kraig, great quick tutorial. when choosing your key light for everyday wedding receptions, do you prefer tungsten or daylight? cheers whats better for most venues
very useful video. good shit
Keep hitting 6 for "The Face"
Awesome video, thank you!
killed me with that finger snap!! ahah awesome video Kraig =)
Great Video Kraig A++
Thank you
grate info
thanks for the video! I just wish I would have been able to see how the hair light was set up and what it would have looked like if you wouldn't have used one
Great Tip 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Kraig in a suit, how dapper!
Have you ever looked into Micro 4/3rd cameras like the GH4 or now the GH5?
Quick question. How do you deal with getting good guest reactions to toasts if the house lights are dimmed and light is mainly focused on the speechmaker? Great Video Kraig, thanks for the amazing content.
bruh when u got up to turn on the key light I FN died. 😂
Great tips. How do you go about talking to the couple about getting the speakers to NOT stand up at the head table?
Hi, thanks for your tutorials. I would like to know, what is the final length of the movie that you give to the couple, thank you
cool tips
Should I be looking at the Aputure Light Storm 120t?
Hey Kraig! What torch light do you recommend for hair lights?
Hey Kraig, i wanted to ask you a question. During wedding shoots how do you set your white balance for all the different environment ? specially during the ceremonies when we get so little time to set it up quickly?
thank you
Yo, I dig the videos. I would love to know what AF settings you use. I recently started using an A7s ii and haven't figured out the best settings. It's currently super slow to change focus compared to my C100 mark ii and causing me to miss shots. I'm usually using a Sony 16-35 on the Zhiyun Crane. Thanks!
The color in this video amazing! Nice skin tones, is this eoshd?
Quick question. Do you need to guesstimate the tilt of the light before you raise up the dedo or is there a way you adjust its tilt angle when its high up on the stand?
Hey Craig. Curious on how you would go about lighting reception speeches with just 1 Dedo and a Torch? Is it similar to the diagram shown at 1:20. Thanks bud!
What do you think about The panasonic fz300 for beginners or for more professional work? Good video as always!
Cappe -123 If you have a look at the videos on my channel you can see an imagevideo I've filmed with the FZ300. It's the one about the "TC Rot-Gold".
You are able to get professional footage with that cam but I don't recommend it because you have to do very many compromises. Well, have a look by yourself and decide! ;)
You are star 🌟
Dedolight vs Lowel Gl-1. Would the GL-1 have enough power to achieve some of the same purpose as the Dedo? If I were to get one, where do you think I should start?
How many of this dido should I use for a small wedding reception ? 1 is enough ?
this was funny. make more
Am i missing the name of the lights you used in this video in the your description as you said they were going to be? I'm not seeing them. Can you point them out to me so i can look them up?
On your gear link I did not find both lights you mention on this video. :(
Hey Kraig, Is the Canon 5D Mark IV any good at wedding filming? I want a camera that is good at both photography and film. Also I will be going to film school this year so is this camera any good for film? If you could reply It would be much appreciated.
Do you need a tilt light bracket for the stand?
Of the youtube clips I look at, about 90-95% or more I look through to the very end, be it minutes or hours. When you find really good channels like this one you tend to keep watching. If you are like me alternating between a phone and a tablet to find all this good content I would now like to send out a caution to you people. Although this channel have good sound (amongst many good things)....
Keep the volume down on your gadgets instead of pushing the volume up just because you don't wanna miss out on something. Give your ears enough rest or you'll regret it. And remember to go out (for fresh air) and practice your vision and learning your gear so you're not watching without cause.
Oh by the way, if you go to concerts .... think about what more can help you before it can't.
Perhaps someone wants to make a clip about this subject, I haven't so yet.
It would be awesome to see a budget version of that dedo light! :(
GeneralGarvel i got the fotodiox led 100wb kit. Each light costs 300$, which isnt bad compared to the $700 for one dedo. I'm really curious as to how a powerful, portable light panel would do at a reception. Cause the kit weighslike 100 lbs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh wow..
There is chinesse ARRI fresnel light. I think it will be good :)
The Came-tv Boltzens are awesome. You get 3 for 800 with a case
I want something budget like Godox Sl-150w (or SL-60W) so basically something cheap and good.
savage tutorial
How close do you usually put the small light to the subject?
Tell me please. To shoot the wedding it is better to take DJI mavic or DJI Phantom 4 pro
Simple fix Alert! To get your talent to stay in the same place (for the key light) and get crispy audio, just bring a personal mic stand. This will allow you to better contain the talent and also have a steady source of back-up audio, no need to bring a handheld mic just bring a universal clamp to attach the DJ/Band Microphone too. I wish I knew this years ago.
The price of this light is amazing but the fact that the color temperature is not adjustable is a deal breaker. Nothing worse than a 5600K daylight blasting through a wedding that is lit at 3200K. Whats ur opinion on that.
Aputure 60x. Game changer
What do you actually do with the limited recording time when you are filming long ceremonies?
Lit
Actually, when we talk about affordable lights it is not just about the cost of lights but also the cost of manning them at events. It is best not to leave them alone not just because there are children playing around but also because adults can mess with them. At a conference I had set up two cams while I was anchoring the show. I saw a photographer hovering around one of the cams (wide shot) which he quietly switched off. Real life presents so many challenges!
Always set to tungsten for indoors?
Would you recommend the sam setup for the reaction shot from bride and groom? and what if you only have the one dedolight?
sure if you have 4 lights and lots of time to set it up, and the room is conducive for it, and the stands aren't in peoples way, and you have time to move them after before the next moment is fleeting and missed...I mean, maybe? I'd consider just 1 dedolight and the rest battery powered for max mobility.
“The face” 😂
can you please share a link for your lights? Thanks very much.. your are awesome BTW
Always look in the description for links: Pro wedding filmmaking kit (Sony A7Sii) - geni.us/bifsj
ahh thank you, it was in pro.. Im working my way up to that point. Thank you.
I see you every day. Plz brother. I used canon 5d mark 3. But your color is very good to me. If you help, it will be very helpful
Thanks Kraig - hope everything is OK with you over there in that strange place called America :-)
Everything great but it is hard light. Whit diffuser shadows will be soft and nice and i think better.
There is no link to your secondary fill light
This doesn’t work for anything accept speeches lol I want the first dance and alllll those to be lit what would you recommend then?
So this video is old not sure what Kraig used to recommend but for the price I think it's hard to beat the Good VL series lights. I use the older model for dances, speeches, and really anything else I need lights for
The mark of the lights?
It's almost like I'm talking. Nice.
Adam Grumbo the highest of compliments
I've said almost all those words to second shooters. I can't believer you're giving it all away for free. You are the man KA!
Question, do you deliver you videos in dvd/blue ray format or on usb to your clients?
TheResonating me? All the above.
these lights are nice....but i need lights which i can control by remote
Can I send me a link for the battery operated led light u have pleeeeaaaaaaaaaaaassssseeeee . Shooting my fist wedding so I want to look into the battery operated lights.
Check out our video on the aputure 60x. This video is way old and I don't even know if these lights are around
@@WeddingFilmSchool you’re right I kept looking and found something nice. Better
How important is it to have two lights? I can't afford two right now, but maybe one light.
I didn't find "for those of you that don't know me" funny until I started doing more weddings
I am scarred
You have many followers in Latin America.
More BTS video please. ;)
You said there would be a link to the lights....where are the links to the lights?
Check the description for a wedding filmmaking kit
"THE FACE"
Are you available for hire?
Sure. Head over to kraigadams.com
Wondering will this light interfere with the photographer?
nope. Their flashes overpower these lights anyway. Besides, most photographers, when they hear we're lighting the reception, are jumping for joy.
Only in the perfect world. Good luck getting speakers to stand in the same spot. People are intoxicated, nervous, fidgety, and some plainly don't like to be told where to stand. You need to use a light with a wide spread that is not pointed directly at the subject. Point it to the ceiling just to give the room some more light. You can also ask the venue to turn up the lights a little during the speeches. When all else is not an option, make sure you have a good low light camera and fast glass. Your advice is good but not practical.
I use wide light too since it's hard to make people stand in a spot, it's sure difficult to get a perfect shot, but if at all possible, it sure is a nice shot lighting beautifully.
mic stand yo
“The face” 😅
Bring a mic stand to try stop 'em moving.
This is Hot
Wow they discontinued that low light
This video is way old, look at our recent stuff. We have a super recent video on the aputure 60x, that thing is killer - Bobby
Any more BTS???
