“In the last year I’ve started to experiment more with the way I like my hair”
I'm getting it cut different tomorrow, just you wait
NegativeFeedback now you made me curious..
@@NegativeFeedback noo but I like it 😭😭
@@NegativeFeedback You don't deserve hair............lol
@@NegativeFeedback Boo! I was curious where its journey was heading.
clicked for dijon, stayed for the mullet
I KNEW IT WAS HIM
Funny how small point 'n' shoots have flashes that make you look like you're witnessing a nuclear blast, but for subtle lighting you need a giant light and a gigantic softbox.
Bigger the light source = softer the light! Seems counterintuitive but helpful to remember
Lmfaooo well put
@mrca Yeah, I know. I just thought it was funny😄
This is not a work of art
*show the perfectly exposed portrait in overcast day *
Me: wtf do you mean
Would love to see a video explaining how to use a light meter properly, in your normal day to day photography and then how you’ve used it with your flash and umbrella
I have to watch this video a second time because the first time all I could hear was that fire hairstyle 🔥🔥🔥
Ngl George's mullet really got me acting strange 😳😋😳
same
@@NegativeFeedback he do be vibin doe 😳
HAHA.... I love how you switched over to your Squarespace sponsor message :) Genius. Gave me a good laugh!
I loved this more experimental type work. Who cares if there's a "right" way? Art is art is art. Your work is incredible and I'll definitely be taking my strobe outdoors now!
Been experimenting with flash photography as well, this video is pretty helpful, thanks George !
And funny sponsor plug as always hahaha
Very good and informative video! Really excited to try this technique out! Thanks!
Very kind of you to leave such a helpful video. Thank you very much.
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm enjoying these square space ads lol
Really enjoying your new Squarespace plugs! Very creative 👌🏻
Love this video! Just started getting into medium format with my uni work so this was super helpful :)
I looooooove this look thanks for sharing your process G!
Hello George! Greetings from Russia and thank you a lot! I was really excited by your portrait technique and tried to add it to my "plein-air" portrait workflow. Now things seem a lot clearer to me. I admire your work a lot, good luck to you and keep up doing such a wonderful photographs.
this video was so helpful and insightful. thank you!
Amazing! Well explained
THIS WAS HELPFUL AS HECK THNX GEORGE
Can you get 10% of a mullet with *Squarespace*
Love Arden and Will
This was really helpful/educational 🥳
This was a very interesting video, thank you very much , from Uruguay.
I really like the idea of lightening the mood of an image by adding artificial lighting. the weather is so depressing and damp this time of the year. If the sun won't come out well have to make our own. Nice video gorgey :))
Your channel is so precious ❣
Grazie George!!!
Love the light (I'd call it NYC in the 90's) and I love the hair (Australia in the 80's :D )
you are great. my photographer. friend... thank you so much for this video!!
I think I might give this a crack. I find often when I want to get better at something with digital, learning to do it with film is the way forward!
Seriously appreciate the tips so much.
Did you end up doing a video on how to position the light?
Buenisima data loco, muy interesante como lo explicaste!
great vid! magically came up right when I was mulling over a similar idea... could you please share your camera settings for the photos - I'm mainly interested in your shutter speed range? thanxx
Anyone have links to this light? and the modifier?
Seeing the Soth inspiration here :)
Best hair on TH-cam
Pictures are worth 1000 words. This got interesting for the few seconds you showed the variations in background exposure effects. Daylight infrared flash is pretty cool also. Can you do a more in depth video please? I’d also like to see what your best shots look like. It’s a cop out disclaimer to say it’s just a test.
Thanks.
good video how long have you been doing photography?
i can't wait to shoot medium format
ohmygosh i love dijon
awh i love dijon
arden & will
Would you recommend the elinchrom setup you have over a Westcott FJ400 kit?
Hi George, I was wondering how you mount your umbrella to your flash head. I use the Elinchrom adapter but I think it's pretty bad: whenever I want to reposition the head, the umbrella starts moving aswel...pretty annoying
Tripods are handy to hold brolleys 😉
Your images are similar in style to annie leibovitz 🤔👍
i have got a question dont know if its stupid but how do you meter for the flash. i know film cameras have sync speeds so i guess that covers the shutter speed so do you just kind of eyeball what you think the aperture should be in that situation
Hello mate, can I ask you what scanner you use normally? I guess you use an imacon right?
I'm a big Frank Ocean fan and I've always wondered about that helmet picture
0:35 that's the best one
I guess you don't want to do a Olympus Trip 35 review.. :(
by the way- your images are great!
Stunning content mate!
BTW what is the name for that kind of haircut?
Yuri Kuznetsov mullet
Thank frank ocean photo mystery reveal was great thanks
I apréciate the lighting tip but in here for the hair progress tbh 👍🏽
ty
Do you think you could achieve similar natural-looking results with an Elinchrom Ranger Quadra RX + softbox? Super informative video!
Yes, essentially the same
bro i got two questions
1- what’s up with the hair ?? it’s not that i hate it but it’s definitely an acquired taste
2- where do you scan you negatives and what scanner bc i don’t think i ever saw film scans looking that good
You should really collab with some designers, I’m sure fashion designer students would love to work with you!
is it possible to use a meter reading app when using a flash?
How much battery power do you have after each photoshoot?
How do you work aperature when using a flash?
Could you share direct links to purchase the set up?
What’s the name of your hotshoot transmitter ? And do you us a cord,
Is that Dijon?! 😱
When I saw how it looks on black skin, I was shook. Thank you!
Oh yeah, black skin, is gorgeous. Especially with reflectors. There's a great photoshoot with Lindsey Adler and a black woman on b&h event space channel I think. I loved that one.
omg its dijon
Wait your in the UK?
dijon!!!
Come back!!!!
Clicked as soon as i saw Dijon
Does the wireless synch work on the rb67 or do you need a synch cable for it?
Need an awnser for the same question lol.
@@shotbyfelix If it has a hotshoe it will work
Was that dijon?
really love this, i wish you where a bit more in depth about the positioning of light. or how you use 400iso film with flash in a overcast kind of setting. love your vdieos tho! keep it up
Why not use a 180mm portrait lens or 250mm..?
The hair transformation is interesting
Been following for 1year the journey tho😂😂😂
Any chance you have a link for the elinchrome kit and modifier?
Just looking for this now too - any luck?
how do you meter with flash???
4:04 confirmed wavy 🌊
I think it would better to shoot it with your digital camera first and then match the settings
Not being critical, but even with the soft box, the shadows remain sharp and unappealing. The dark shadows under the chins were still sharp edged, with a critically sharp edge.
This is video 📹 is ❤♥💖🔥
my question is how would this differ if you used constant light rather than a strobe
continuous lighting is less bright, and doesn't freeze motion
dijon !!!!!!
Can u do this with a speed light like a yongnuo flash and with a white umbrella?
Alec I. Yes but it won’t be bright enough to get as good results
#bestsquarespacesponsoroutthere
ahh saw dijon and photography and instantly clicked
kaleb SAME IM LITERALLY IN LOVE W DIJON
@@GlamourousGirl27 SAME LOL
Pow
just checked the price of that kit and... yeah i am poor. what could be a cheaper alternative to this?
Im not sure why you're going with such a heavy and expensive setup. Is something more contemporary ie godox ad200 not compatible or not powerful enough?
Bruno it’s twice as powerful as the godox
how does changing the shutter only affects the background and not the whole image? that got me really confused..
The duration of the flash is very short but bright. So even at the fastest shutter speed your subject will be the same brightness. Since the background is normally a bit further away than the subject, it's less illuminated by the flash. Therefore at a lower shutter speed, there's more time for the background to be exposed with natural light. Hope that helped
@@NegativeFeedback totally helped but I tought you were stating it like a rule.. in this particular case it works like this I understand. great video. the portrait @4:42 is gorgeous
How can I do this with a 35mm camera with a Sync speed of 1/60? Would I have to use an ND filter to achieve this? Seems like this more geared towards leaf shutter lenses?
Nah don’t think so but the background might be a lil bit brighter than a leaf shutter also I’m wondering if u can do this with a speed light and an umbrella
To stay at a low shutter yes, use an ND. And then increase flash power to light the subject.
The Next Hobby I’m thinking of bringing my digital camera to get the setting right then transfer the filter to the film camera and hope for the best 😩😂
@@takoboi Yes that's a great way to jumpstart the process. I learned how to do this with a cheap P&S that had full manual control. And then just transfer the settings to the film camera and maybe bracket your shots as you normally would. The flash or strobe is fully compatible since everything on both camera + strobe is done manually.
The Next Hobby good stuff bro! Can’t wait to get out there and try it out. I just ordered a nice ND filter that should arrive this week
But you only have a 1/400th of a sec of fastest shutter speed on your camera - isn't that right? Can you still manage to "turn out" the incident light outdoors? You can't do those pictures in bright sunlight, can you? If you can answer to this it would help me so much in understanding photography in general. Thank you. Love you so far from what I've seen - style, asthetics, authenticity, knowledge - subscribed :)
Or is a leaf shutter enough to cut out the background light?
❤️❤️👍👍👌👌
If I shoot digital, I wouldn’t necessarily need a lightmeter, cause I could check the image, right?
id trust a light meter over the lcd screen any day
in theory yes, but the exposure wont be 100% accurate
Many digital photographers still use light meters. Especially cinematographers.
I’m asking because I’m not sure I can afford a light meter rn, I’ll try the lcd in testing, if doesn’t work out, I can still order a light meter 🤙🏻 thanks for all the answers
Paul D. It will definitely work well enough, just not perfect
dijonnnn
damn edgiest haircut ever dude
time for Willem to copy this video now... BEST FILM CHANNEL !!
I wish everything was lighter. im getting very tempted by the idea of just shooting with a little 35mm rf and call it a day.
I mean yeah this isn't an every day carry round and take snapshots type of kit
@@NegativeFeedback a boy can dream
how big is this umbrella
is it 4ft or 5ft
London 90s style hahaha
Sort the barnet out
You're capturing a brooding reality the eye cannot see. The extra in the ordinary if you like. It's all your own, but leaning more towards the likes of Paul Cadden than Martin Parr, no? Whatever, I like it.
