Absolutely, it can be quite a lot to learn - but once you do, you'll can usually find neat little ways to use light to make things feel more realistic. Thank you so much!
This is great feedback for me, as I'm trying to keep all the videos in this series around this length, or slightly shorter. So I'm super happy to hear it! Thank you so much!
Watching Rob's videos is always both exciting and relaxing at the same time. I always feel submerged, then I have to go set up my lights and create a scene! Thanks for sharing Rob!
I love these videos.... so happy to see your name pop up in my notifications. These are always so well thought out, informative, and eloquently delivered. Great job, man.
Out of all the channels that I really love and engage with when it comes to treating lighting for video/cinema, it's this channel. Really glad I'm subbed because you've taught me a lot and made me want to create more myself.
Thank you so much! Super glad I've inspired you to create more, that's awesome to hear. Really appreciate your kind words and I hope you continue to enjoy the videos - and to create!! :)
I'm a simple woman. I see a new Rob Ellis video and clicky clicky! Thanks for your wonderful videos, they are presented with a clarity and direction I often find lacking. Cheers!
I greatly appreciate that, thank you so much! I've said a few times, I try to make what I want to see - so the fact that this resonates with others is fantastic. Thank you!!
Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it and I'm super happy to hear my work has had an impact on you! Messages like these totally makes it worth doing - so thank you! :)
Whoop whoop for Rob! You should rock a podcast as well , I’d be following man…great content always // straightforward // waiting for the next one. Respect from Berlin
You're a true inspiration for me and most of us .. learnt a lot from your channel. and glad to be a part of your subscribers, seen lot of paid courses and you've bested them in every aspect.
Wow, so I'm guessing its going to be 26 videos one for each alphabet. Some of the most helpful and informative videos on the whole platform, cant wait!
36 videos! I wanted to cover as much as I could, so some letters will have 2 topics :) I've also cut some of these down into 2 parts, for example we have Part 2 of Ambient in a few weeks. So actually, more than 36! Thank you so much for the kind words, I hope you enjoy the series!
you are so underrated man!!! i love everything u do in these videos, the valuable information, the music , it just takes me away to a place close to heaven man!! thank you
In hooked on this videos. Each video teaches me about lighting. Most videos about Lighting is a person just talking about it. It feels like a video made just to get the views and the subs. These videos are made with intent to teach those who watch it. The narration is spot on too. Due to these videos I know fully understand the true way to light scenes
Super happy to hear you're learning from my videos and I massively appreciate your kind words! I've said a few times before, I'm just making what I want to see - so the fact that works for others is amazing! Thank you!
it works. Your videos are for those who really want to make films. You show that as long as you have good lighting you can make any room or subject cinematic with lighting. No need for big fancy film studios. @@RobEllisCinematographer
Mate, these videos are so great. I've got a few shoots coming up towards the end of the year and your videos are brilliant for lighting ideas and concepts. You do a great job of visual explanation as well. Cheers legend
Once again, another great lighting video Rob. I was almost going to say something about that slash of open window in upper right. Then you thru the composit in there. Great job.
Thanks Robert, great to hear from you! It was a good bit of practise for me with the composite. There's actually a bit of Photoshop's generative fill here too, as you could originally see a lightstand out of the window!
wow, that is good information, please keep that coming! You got me early in this video, and then you got me again with mentioning the cooler light, standing for the light from the sky. Thumbs up!!
Really great tutorial Rob, thank you. I'm always amazed by the consideration you give to every detail and how you demonstrate how each of those details are vital in creating the overall lighting outcome - Bravo! @Nanlite, give this man a medal! (and a link for us to buy those snazzy Nanlite hoodies 😉)!
It's always best to go as powerful as you can, you can always take away light by dimming down, flagging, diffusing and shaping if it's too much. Better to remove too much than have too little and be wishing for more!
my friend, this was amazing. i am considering buying your course on Moment. I think my only struggle right now is... I would love to see you light a scene/interview to the best of your ability with only $300-$500 of lighting gear. Because that is about the price of the lighting gear I own, and probably a ton of us other low/medium level filmmakers. One day I hope to own several of those big expensive lights, but I want to know how to best use my 3 lights I currently own... it would be so cool to see you light a scene with 2-3 budget friendly lights
If you don't have the budget to entirely recreate natural light, then using actual natural light and shaping it with negative fill + flags is going to be your best bet, this would also apply to a moving shot!
@@RobEllisCinematographer yes very much rob its so informative especially the cove lighting of your previous video i wanna try in my next feature film and its golddust🥰
Please don’t worry about subscriber count. This is actual real lessons that people can use not gimmicks. Its not good for the algorithm but this is going in my lighting Bible
I don't tend to worry about that stuff - I'm trying my best to grow without sacrificing the quality of my videos, which actually means I'm often shooting myself in the foot in terms of money! But I'd rather do that than lose control over my creative process!
I've missed ur contents. Happy to see you again. Btw I am also using Dehencer Can u explan How did u color grade or What film stocks or setting u used briefly?:)
It's a cheap Calumet one - www.wexphotovideo.com/calumet-42x42-aluminium-frame-only-1646661/?gad_source=1 - it's 3.5' x 3.5' really, just referred to as 4 x 4 in the video as it's a more commonly sized flag! There's a section about this on the extended Patreon video - but essentially we were shooting around a very windy period, so using a flag supported by one stand would have been a bit dodgy, so I hunted down the small frame so we could secure it a bit better on two sides. I also cut a piece of bleached muslin and velcro'd it on top of the material it came with, as it wasn't very good material! (On closer look, seems like they don't have it in stock right now)!
@@RobEllisCinematographer thanks for your reply! Looks like a good basic system. This is aluminum, but I might try to make a PVC pipe frame. Less convenient but would be something you could throw around and not worry too much about
@@RobEllisCinematographer I hope you're doing great during this absence! You're a wonderful inspiration to all of us here. I'm actually even planning to have the honor to travel and meeting the Light Guru himself one day.👏😜 Enjoy what you're doing and we'll be eagerly waiting for your precious videos! Also I will keep nagging about your first short, and silent film. I think you tell so much in this way, and I know you will amaze us. Hoping one day to see you contribute to huge films and go viral. Fingers crossed🤞
The smaller fold-out one is the cheaper Calumet Light Control Panel Frame 105cm x 105cm (there's a DIY element to this also which I went over on Patreon) and the bigger frame is a 6' x 6' Matthews Butterfly/Overhead snap-apart. It's a bit of a pain to put together, the fold out one is on my list!
It's not out of the question to create setups like this with less power, if you have a camera that can shoot a clean image at a higher ISO - and lots of cameras do these days! Best way to find out is to try - that way you'll discover what the strengths/weaknesses of lower powered lights are and you'll know what you can or can't do!
I'm not the greatest at regularity (although that will be changing with this series) - so let's see if we can't get a few more subscribers soon! Thank you so much, I appreciate it! :)
It's always better to recreate a daylight interior at night than try and create a night interior during the day! You see a lot of day for night tutorials referring to exteriors.
yep, I guess it's all down to whether a window is visible or not. If not, it can be so much easier, as your day to night video demonstrates!@@RobEllisCinematographer
How much of that bounced fill to lift the shadows could have been achieved by lifting the shadows in post? It essentially would do something very similar no? Also if you dont mind me asking, what color temp did you set the majority of lights to? Love your videos!
When you think about what's happening with all the bounced light - the directions it's coming from, the way it's realistically interacting with the room - lifting the shadows in post without all of that, is just going to be lifting the lack of all that information. If we didn't recreate the sky and just lifted the shadows in post instead, we're not adding fill realistically from the sky, but just lifting whatever is already in the room. I think all the warmer lights were set to about 5300k-5400k and the cooler light was at 8000k. I had the camera at 5600 for a tiny bit of warmth! Thank you so much!
Yeah the real movie world is a completely different level. I was on set yesterday & there was a set up for the set where they used 20 Vortex lights just to backlight some plants in a glass display case that ran along one of the walls decoration for decoration A vortex light is like 6k lmao
It's actually a cheaper one I found in the UK, the Calumet "Light Control Panel System" 105cm x 105cm - which is closer to 3.5' x 3.5', but since 4' is more of a standardised size I referred to it that way!
Thank you so much! I would say it's a little too short, considering the angle of the light and the size of the light source (it's pretty close to the window)!
Brand new course! It covers a few things in the previous course a little more clearly, but expands on working with, motivating and recreating daylight entirely!
ปีที่แล้ว
I have a wonder, do your online course have english sub?
Getting rid of the sun at the end seems to replicate sunlight that is just out of sight, and not direct, meaning all the light you're getting is indirect light, and could be closer to mid day or early afternoon.
Absolutely - we've formed the base of the ambience in the scene, which we could have played off as sky light, or indirect light, or even an overcast day depending on exposure levels/color temperature!
Just when I was thinking about these exact problems, the king returns with the answers to my prayers. Thank you Rob, you're second to none.
Happy I appeared at the right time! I am definitely no king though haha! Thank you so much, good to hear from you! :)
This was awesome. Just shows how much work goes behind the scene to make a natural lit looking visual.
Absolutely, it can be quite a lot to learn - but once you do, you'll can usually find neat little ways to use light to make things feel more realistic. Thank you so much!
I love having these bite sized videos it’s not too much that you feel overwhelmed with information but enough to incorporate it into your next shoot
This is great feedback for me, as I'm trying to keep all the videos in this series around this length, or slightly shorter. So I'm super happy to hear it! Thank you so much!

Made me realize I need more powerful lights, can’t wait to try this
It's great to have a good variety of outputs, it can make things a lot less tricky!
It's always best to go as powerful as you can, you can always take away light by dimming down, flagging, diffusing and shaping if it's too much. Better to remove too much than have too little and be wishing for more!
@@SoloTraceur this - absolutely!
Great teacher
Thank you!!
Tell me again how is this knowledge free. Lol this is masterclass level right here!!🤩
my friend, this was amazing. i am considering buying your course on Moment. I think my only struggle right now is... I would love to see you light a scene/interview to the best of your ability with only $300-$500 of lighting gear.

Thank you for watching! :)
Sooo useful!
Thanks alot! 🙌🏻
Happy to hear it! :) thank you so much!
Interesting as usual. I have two concern: 1. How we can achieve this on a budget 2- how can set up kind of lighting in a moving shot (in a budget)
If you don't have the budget to entirely recreate natural light, then using actual natural light and shaping it with negative fill + flags is going to be your best bet, this would also apply to a moving shot!
Thanks for this!
Thank you for watching! Hope you enjoyed/found it useful in some way! :)

Nice work! Thoughts on recreating natural lighting if the largest fixture you have is a 150 or 300?
It's not out of the question to create setups like this with less power, if you have a camera that can shoot a clean image at a higher ISO - and lots of cameras do these days! Best way to find out is to try - that way you'll discover what the strengths/weaknesses of lower powered lights are and you'll know what you can or can't do!
It's truly a TRAVESTY that your channel hasn't hit at least 500K subs yet. Amazing content
I'm not the greatest at regularity (although that will be changing with this series) - so let's see if we can't get a few more subscribers soon! Thank you so much, I appreciate it! :)

You should create a necessity g&e starter package
I wouldn't say I have the credentials to confidently make something like that!
where is the 4x4 frame from?
It's actually a cheaper one I found in the UK, the Calumet "Light Control Panel System" 105cm x 105cm - which is closer to 3.5' x 3.5', but since 4' is more of a standardised size I referred to it that way!
Amezing Video
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you! 😄
Great work! The shadow that the window casts on the window's edge is a little bit too harsh. To feel 100% realistic, it could be a little bit softer.
Thank you so much! I would say it's a little too short, considering the angle of the light and the size of the light source (it's pretty close to the window)!
Is this the same lighting course we've purchased or this is completely a brand new course?
Brand new course! It covers a few things in the previous course a little more clearly, but expands on working with, motivating and recreating daylight entirely!
