You know what I like about this guy? His business model has him selling his instructional videos to the world's best film schools.
He's an award-winning director and cinematographer.
I don't know how these TH-camrs who call themselves experts in filmmaking who are anything but have such gigantic TH-cam channels when his guys like this on here I wish you'd put out more TH-cam content and blow them away because he's actually a real teacher a true professional
seems like he has a super low ego too - humble professional showing up for work today with his bes effort
Really nice and underrated content. People are rarely showing the whole process of cinematic lighting in all its glory. Much appreciated.
these were the kind of videos i had been searching for years. but never found such satisfactory videos. This is exactly what I had been looking for
wow it makes such a huge difference ! it just goes to show it’s not the camera your using, it’s the lighting your using. very impressive.
lighting makes all the difference
Hands down the best cinematic lighting tutorial I have seen on YT yet 🙂👍
have never seen so much detailed lighting tutorial before.... I subscribed to the channel instantly...
Thank so you so much - I'm glad you found it useful!
@@FilmSkills if you worked a little more on the video tags, more people could find the video! ;)
I don't want to be the one who gives advice but doesn't tell anything, so I will give you some examples :D
Interior lighting for video, lighting daylight interior, interior cinematography, how to light a scene, advanced cinematography techniques, how to light interior scene, how to light an interior day scene.
You have 500 characters for the tags, make a good use of them and the views will come to quality content like this! (I was a user of FilmSkills long ago!)

I'm also bro
One of the best instructors I have seen on TH-cam regarding filmmaking contents. Thanks for great tutorials always.
i like how that guy was typing the whole time.. it was like watching a character animation.. his email was very thorough..
This is exactly how it is explained in film school, great work.
great video. he was actually working on his laptop.😂
One of the most thorough and professional videos I've ever seen on TH-cam! Thank you!
Wow this is the most practical video ever for lighting a scene... Thank you so much for this... Simple yet with a lot of information... good job!
👍🏻 “Light and shadow of the filmmaker!” 🎥
Very educational post! When I imagine that EVERY scene has to be prepared so intensively, I literally get dizzy.
Luckily, my (micro) projects usually only have one or two perspectives. But I'm thinking about whether I shouldn't shed more (better) light on the matter. ☀️
OMG! Amaizing piece of work and art! Thank you very much! Really professional and easy way to speak and teach.
Gaffers tape is for attaching stuff to or marking your OWN equipment. Artist's Paper Tape is for taping stuff to walls and floors on location. Gaffers tape will remove paint and destroy the finish on hardwood floors. I use only the professional grade gaffers tape and have destroyed a trade show floor with it. Paper tape all the way. Otherwise, a great tutorial.
That's exactly right, but if you don't have paper tape, in a pinch you can tear off a piece of gaffers tape from the roll then stick and unstick it to your jeans a few times. This will make it much less sticky and won't pull off the paint or surface.
Really appreciated the details. This wasn't about a name brand type of light or piece of equipment but meat and potatoes filmmaking. Much appreciated.

Thanks Rafael!
Awwsome tutorial. How do you know which numbers to aim for on the light meter?
Thank you for these vids sir
Very nice and detail video, its rare to find such great tutorial on youtube.
In my opinion the thing that could have made this shot even better and is a great way to improve every shot is a little more color temperature contrast. Maybe put your camera on like 4000k for the overall image to be a little cooler, and put the key light on 6000k to warm up the subjet and make him pop out the frame.
It is not a critic for the video but an advice for helping beginners cinematographers.
amazing video, so good to find this information for free!

Producer: time's up, why are we still lighting?
These re incredibly helpful! You’re such a great teacher and I appreciate how you show things nearly in real time, like actually setting up each piece of equipment.
Amazing 🥰🥰
I thought the original image already looked pretty good, but holy shmoley the final look was beautiful
I guess if you are on a tight schedule you couldn’t wait for the sun to go down and shoot later in the day/evening, so you had to tint the windows, right?
Superb content btw. Subscribed & following.
😘😘😘😘🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍 Thank you sir for your wonderful efforts. Its almost great practical and theoretical for us. 🙏 Its more than you get in film schools.
Wow
Which profile picture was shot sir? I am from Nepal 🇳🇵
looks really nice, I woder if there was a way to use cutter flag to remove reflection of key light in windows that we can see at the beggining of the scene ?
If you notice, I did add the cutter in the final shot.
Great tutorial/breakdown but I was wondering why you couldn’t position the diffusion frame at an angle to his face to create the shape and contrast rather than adding another light?
The choice wasn't to simply add more light, but to sculpt it. The first light source through the 4x4 frame was to create the key light and set the proper brightness for the actor's skin tones. The second side light was to sculpt the light to create a more three-dimensional feel. This is a technique I often use to make the lighting look more natural and less like a typical three-point lighting set-up.
nice
This is a great video.
I love how the model keeps typing on the laptop even when he doesn't need to :P
If I remember correctly, he was actually getting some work done. Haha
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What a great tutorial this was. Completely demystifies so much of the lighting process.
Very glad the TH-cam algorithm threw up your channel!
Awesome, thank you!
should you blocking and filming in the same day?
can someone please explain what he means by increasing the contrast ratio by 1 and 1/2 stops to one? is that a general rule?
Could you have done the same with out the lightmeeter, just looking at the monitor?
I wouldn’t. You never know if the monitor is properly calibrated. If it’s too bright, you will be underexposing all your shots. If it’s too dark, you will be overexposing them.
@@FilmSkills Damn, now i need to add another expencive thing to my gear ;)
What's the big led lighting panel? Does this compare as far as size? Nanlite LumiPad 25 Soft LED Light Panel
thanks a lot
Chromatic aberration were noticable throughout the shot. Was it there deliberately or as an artifact created by Rokinon lenses?
Haha, no, I didn't intentionally add the chromatic aberration. The Rokinon DS series lenses are OK when you're working in the middle 2/3 of the aperture range, but anything more open than a 2.8 or closed more than an f11 gets a little sloppy. In this demo, you can really see the chromatic aberration in the high contrast areas like the edges of the windows.
I also found that Rokinon's 14 and 16mm lenses are really soft when you're wide open. They definitely have their limitations, but considering how cheap they are for cine primes, the tradeoff is worth it, especially if you know the lenses' limitations.
Very helpful. Might you have a tutorial on f stop ratios and using a light meter? Btw, is the camera digital? Thanks for the tutorial.
It's funny you mention this, because I just released a video on f-stops and using a light meter today. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/AFKI1GkoGk0/w-d-xo.html
