He just has to be one of the top Photographers/Story Tellers in the industry. Its always a pleasure to see him work as he is such an easy going and relaxed guy. I am hoping he will visit Scotland again. Would be great to meet the legend.
the model is absolutely brilliant. oh please send me models with these skills. with zero direction she is working poses with the light. awesome. I think with the three head shot they needed a single point to focus all their eyes on, love the concept. And Joe finally started giving some direction, could see the models relax because they then knew they were doing what the tog wanted.
Joe was using the meter in the camera as the light was changing quickly. If he locked in a manual exposure set with a hand held meter he would have had to keep stoping to re-meter
There is a lot of subtlety in movement. You may have a manager or director overseeing the images and needs variety to choose from. The pick in a series of shots may be like the 10th shot. Also just in case of the accidental out of focus shot you will have back up. It works. I know exactly what you mean though. It also boils down to style.
The purpose for bracketing is to gain dynamic range. It is unnecessary for this type of shoot and the location. Also pay attention to the cadence of the models posing. For bracketing, the model would freeze for a 3 or 5 click beat then flow into the next pose.
Gets really annoying that in this series there are not enough results shown. Great ideas, nice BTS, hard to tell if anything is actually working. 4,000,000 shutter clicks and 3 images? Does not work for me.
at 6.56 you rattled off approx 15 - 20 shots in Aperture priority without changing any setting on your camera nor did the models move, how come ?? there doesn't seem any point, maybe take a few shots just in case the models blink or smile or what ever, or if your changing composition or adjusting focal length, you you didn't seem to do this either.
"Just kinda let yourself relax, think about, you know, the beautiful light... hum you know. Whatever". This made my day.
Awesome video, Joe is a total pro and it is a treat to watch him work.
I like how by working it, the magic presented itself. That's the beauty of a daylight studio.
so cool watching the way Joe worked and changed the direction of the shoot when he saw some light he liked

Jenny Gavin-Wear What town you in?
The master!
Always learn something from Joe McNally!
Excellent! Thank you, Joe, Daniel, and team!
I just hope the Duo (Joe and Daniel) will appear again on Adorama
She's gorgeous!
Again, You two work well together. Great explanation, Cool set up. I really enjoyed it.
Thanks again for teaming up for this project, very useful and practical info.
Thank you Jose!
Great video, most informative, and enjoyable...many thanks
very informative. thank you joe and daniel.
Simple and effective!!! Says it perfectly!!
Use what is available..love it! Great video. Sometimes those simple tips are seriously the best!
Wow
excellent thanks guys
These are all so informative and helpful. Waving from The Bahamas. :)
Good work everybody! very informative...
Daniel you are really coming up in the world. How did you land Joe as your assistant? :-)
Sometimes you gotta give those young guys a chance :)
That hurt, Daniel!!! :-))) I think we make a good team. I just need to move faster.
Gosh!~ all three of those models are gaawjus - please use them all again...
Do We need increase or decrease exposure composition like -1 or 2 in all white background?
I have one question. For what shutter was so fast? They stay like statue...
Good video guys, you give a kick to action.
Fast shutter due to wide aperture and lots of light, no need to stop down for greater DoF.
Marcin Le I think you mean fast frames per second? If so, shooting lots of frames takes away chances of closed eyes.
with what kind of cam have you filmed this, what lense? maybe some settings? also really good quality, big thump up
What happened to your 1000 speedlights Joe?
Not always!!! :-)))
what lens used for wide shots?
nice shoot sir
OMG, that stabilization is killing me..
Wouldn't a scene like this one be perfect for using a light meter?
scott tate or a mirrorless camera :)
So true
Joe was using the meter in the camera as the light was changing quickly. If he locked in a manual exposure set with a hand held meter he would have had to keep stoping to re-meter
Daniel Norton Photographer That's the key part that I forgot about. Makes sense. Thank you
isnt it too much clicking just for one shot at the time ? or its just me !!!!

i believe he was just bracketing. (and maybe two or three more to have the right focus guaranteed)
I highly doubt he was bracketing.
why?

I see Skips and Mordecai from Regular Show
8:36 is hilarious
That shutter is loud.
shavnore and awesome!!!!
