I dont know who needs to hear this and I never do this but to everyone here that looked this video up in hopes to start a youtube career like me, good luck 🤞 I pray you have fun and it is lucrative for you! 🥰
Can't believe this video isn't viral. I've watched a dozen tutorials on lighting, and this is BY FAR the most useful, straight-to-the-point video on the topic.
These videos have been instrumental in helping me create my paid courses. Lots of insightful bits: "low light + high exposure > bright light/low exp" "put the light near you to reduce background spill"
Man, I can't express just how helpful your videos have been. Thanks so much for your selfless approach and great delivery of awesome info. I have a culinary podcast in the works, and your videos have been incredibly helpful in getting me set up for success from the FIRST.
You don't know how grateful I am for this video. Struggling more than six months and spending lots of money on different lights and RGB and not satisfied the result. I wish I watched it long before. Thanks thanks thanks
Every time i search for a lighting tutorial video, i always look out for BEN JOHNSON. You are the expert on youtube when it comes to lighting. Thank you very much..will send a link after i have set up my lights.. thank you
Thank you for this video. I've been looking at simple lighting set-ups for home video production, but until now had no concept of how to position anything. You answered lots of questions!
OMG THANK YOU!! I have literally been searching all week for this information!! Question what should the White balance setting be for this type of setup? Idk if it is my exposure or white balance but I’m noticing my lights do not look as colorful in camera as they do in person. I believe I have my WB set to Tungsten and my ISO is 100 my blue light looks more white than blue and my pink light looks like a faded purple. I’m going to definitely try your exposure tip. I just wanted to know how the white balance effect everything when using RGB lights as well. Thanks for teaching me your videos are helpful I dropped out of photography classes after two weeks 7yrs ago lol it was too complex but people like you are the best instructors for people like me. Your content is very much appreciated!! Thank you!!
Wow thanks so much for your kind words! Yes white balance will affect the color I would turn off your key and fill and rim lights and leave on the rgb lights. Then watch the camera and adjust the white balance until it looks how you’d like. If you end up at like 4600k or 5600k or whatever it is, then set your key and fill and rim lights to that
Dropped brightness level of lights, increased exposure of camera and raised RBG lights off the ground to sit just behind me. Incredible how much those three small changes have boosted the quality of my video. Background colour pops and I stand out even more while being well-light still. Super excited to feature the new setup in my next video/stream. Thank you for your great work Ben!
Awesome! So glad it’s helping! One quick note that I wished I would have mentioned: don’t raise your iso TOO much as it will get noisy/grainy. Just watch out for it :)
How do you increase exposure and get a colour enhancement? Im using my iPhone 14 to film and that colour enhancement only works for me if I increase saturation but then I turn orange! Some advice would really be appreciated 😊
This video helped me a ton after making hundreds of videos. If I didn't have any experience making videos, I hardly believe I could have understood the point of the video.
I started watching you almost a year ago. Got so much from your content, but as a beginner at everything couldn't implement it all. Now I'm back with better equipment and more experience and able to absorb so much more. Thanks so much :)
SUPER GOOD INFO! I'm a beginner yet have a OCD-Ish way of working. I will play with my lights all weekend to at least utilize the lights I do have. The concept of building the lighting as you go is somewhat to a music producer/arranger goes through. From silence, to organized sound. Sequences, etc... its important to break things down this way so we understand. Great tips, and thank you!!!!
Super helpful. It’s been a while since I used this in-studio method and I haven’t worked with color lights before, so as I’m looking to really dive into content creation this year, these were some great tips. Thanks man!
Ben! We tried to do the same with the lights you recommend (that are not the same you are using) but it doesn’t work. Because the minimum brightness is too bright, and all the background gets a lot of light. I guess you are using the falcon eyes, but they are too expensive, what else can we try?
There are 6 solutions to this problem you can try. 1) If you have enough space, move as far as you possibly can from the background. This is ideal anyway for a good feeling of depth in the image. 2) Change the angle of the key light so that it is either higher or further to the side of you. Making it further to the side will create more shadows and may be a really interesting look if you like it. If not, then another light or reflector can be used as a fill light to make the image more flat. 3) Cover your key light with one or multiple sheets of white fabric. This will make the light a bit more soft and more dim. Use more layers to make it as dark as needed. You can tape, clamp, or use any other method you want to attach the fabric. 4) Use negative fill to shape the light. Just search negative fill for examples on how to use it if you need. You can use blackwrap or black cloth for this to focus the light. 5) Edit the colors in post. If you are using an advanced editing software like premiere pro, you may be able to restore a lot of color by messing with your color correction. Of course this is less optimal than getting it right on set. 6) Change the lights. If all else fails and you want the colored background, this may be necessary. Of course, maybe you only need to change the RGB light to a brighter version.
I am searching for a donor or business partner to stand a famous youtube channel. In Bangladesh , it's too easy to gain 1 million subscribers by making creative tech or travel vlog videos. I have a computer setup and a lot of experience in video editing and photoshop... I need just a camera and background set up.. so, I am searching for a partner for my youtube channel

Wow! Wow! I am in the process of a building a home to my family! One of the bedroom is going to be my TH-cam studio. Thank you for helping me out here in Nairobi Kenya!
Awesome glad this was helpful for you! Here is a tour of my TH-cam studio, you may find some other ideas from it: th-cam.com/video/6qCudlvHg9I/w-d-xo.html
Really helpful the way you showed the shadow sinking as the light was raised. Simple concept but seeing it in action makes the difference! Thanks for the tips!
Your channel has opened my eyes to details when it comes to lighting placement and creating TH-cam content the right way that I didn't even know. I'm still working on buying more gear, but I want to make sure I take advantage of the gear I already have. One of the lights I own is a Yongnuo RGB Wand Light. I can control the color from an app on my iPhone. You just helped me crack the code with the settings though. I still have a lot of trial and error. But wow!!! You've just given me such a boost and I can't thank you enough! I definitely subscribed and I'm looking forward to seeing more tips and tricks from you as well.
@@benjohnsoncreative Thank you so much. I do have a question. What adapter do you use to bend the wand lights down or at an angle? I have a the regular light stand from Amazon where you just twist it on, but you can’t move it around or bend it.

love the video and one thing I love about your video is that there are informative and straight to the point. And I will try that light up method in my next video
Love this channel as to refer for me as beginner content creator. Greetings from Malaysia Ben. Lots of information and knowledge i got from this channel. Thanks Ben.
A clear succinct video which I have bookmarked and will come back to again. I recently got studio lights for my channel and made a video about my TH-cam equipment, using these techniques and linking to this video of yours at the end.

Thank you for sharing this! Things in life have been in such flux, causing me to delay production on @engageshow time and time again, and I had forgotten all about considering manipulating exposure on my camera. Thank you for reminding me of that and for showcasing a couple different examples juxtaposing different ISOs vs. power/intensity from the lighting itself.
Great stuff Ben! This is the 2nd video of yours I watched about lighting. I got level with you... Your content is PURE PLATINUM! I'm learning A LOT from you. Thank you Ben! Keep crushing it!
