@@kyleloftusstudios Question: how do you take a video while your whole background is dark but your face is only shown? Like at @2:33 wouldn’t the flash light hit the black sheets?
Easy setups you can do at home with ONE LIGHT: * Flat Lighting 0:29 * Paramount or Butterfly Set up 1:30 * Loop Lighting 2:38 * Rembrandt Lighting 3:58 * Split Lighting 5:27 (bonus, how to bounce the light 6:28) * Top-Down Lighting 6:58 👏 💋 ¡Great Job @Kal Visual! We just subscribed to your channel. ✌
I love your lighting breakdowns and tutorials. Unfortunately they are missing a little on youtube and everybody is talking about what camera setup you need. But lighting increases the production quality by a huge percentage. Thank you for the great content!
I am a 3D character artist and I was looking for some light set up to show it the best way, this video is just amazing, very usefull and straight to te point
@@kyleloftusstudios would love a video on the different ways to make it & what exactly to buy! And what materials could potentially distort your light too much (ex: tints the color more green)
Thank you. I recently bought my first video camera and there is so much to learn. These lighting tips will be easy to remember, and easy on the budget.
Thank you Kyle very useful. How do you hide the background though? I still can see my background (some wrinkles and shapes) but I want a clean black background like your.
Man this info is absolutely awesome. It helped me a lot to understand where to put my Softbox & what can I get when the softbox is in that position. Thanks a lot man.
Thank you! Fantastic video. I just got myself a Good SL60W and that's all I have for now. I think the Paramount variations look ace. Gonna try some different ones tonight.
This is great, thank you so much, It was just what I was looking for! To get the best effect and to control the light is it best to have a completely dark room?
Awesome man! How does the footage look in post without any editing? I see you used black sheets behind you to black it out but does your video not pick the background up atall?
Thank you, I love it because you made it easy, clear, plus showed you can do it at home without numerous expensive gadgets or setup. I like your look for setup 1-5, you looked handsome. I hate the last look overhead, it made you look like a clown. It was like a clown-man killing everyone in a horror movie. 😁
Finally, a video that can help amateurs simply trying to improve the quality of their videos. One light, One Camera, Great Instructor.
much love man, I'm glad you find the content helpful

I enjoyed this video. I started to create content for my music and these are great lighting setup tips. Thank you
I got you I got you
Learned a lot from this video. Definitely going to switch up the lighting on my channel!
groovy fam! send me a snapshot of the new setup
I love that as the lights change, you progressively look more and more like Charlie Hunnam
Easy setups you can do at home with ONE LIGHT:
* Flat Lighting 0:29
* Paramount or Butterfly Set up 1:30
* Loop Lighting 2:38
* Rembrandt Lighting 3:58
* Split Lighting 5:27 (bonus, how to bounce the light 6:28)

Productive Info...!
Thanks Buddy
I loved this video! Really simple and easy for beginners. Can you also explain how you did the dark background?
You use a grid :) and you make sure you have a black background. If not try to be as far as possible from the background.
You can do that by changing iso
Take exposure of brightest part of face and pull it down a little bit... There you go!
Nice, I will test this techniques
right on!
That's cool buddy! :) Rock on!
A very useful video. I'm putting it into practice today. Thanks!

Love hearing it
How do you make the background look like that? So solid and professional looking?
He used a black sheet or tarp as a background, and probably dipped the blacks in post
Name Watcher I mean with the camera settings and all that. I have a black backdrop and two soft box lights but I can’t get it to look like this
Sindy Nicole ikr!!!
@@sindynicole5924 he would have had a wide(ish) aperture and a quick shutter speed to only allow the light that he is using in
Really enjoyed your video great ideas for me personally as I was not so familiar with these different lighting setups thank you
my pleasure!
Great video! Can you share your camera setting as well?

How does the footage look in post without any editing? I see you used black sheets behind you to black it out but does your video not pick the background up atall?
No i just crushed the blacks at like -30 in post
Nice video, may i know how you get the flat black background color?
modifiying and controling light
legend. This was so helpful thank you! Simple and powerful results with a minimalist set up. Love the stylized uses of this
Yessir, glad you enjoy it, check out my course on Cinematography today for 10+ of tutorial content!

Awesome your video
yo this video was dope. going to try that bruce warne look
Sir how did you make your background complete black it looks so beautiful and neat ...please do help me out in suggesting what to do
you need to really work at shaping your right and controlling the direction, intensity, and where it's hitting.
@@kyleloftusstudios okay so does that mean you didnt use premiere Pro for making your background look so neat and beautiful ...it's just the lighting
AWESOME AWESOME VIDEO!!!!
THANK YOU!!❤
You are so welcome!
I've done the setup with a shadow on one side and a backlight behind me. On some of my older videos, I tried to achieve the cinematic look.
love to hear it mate!
@@kyleloftusstudios Thanks, man! :)
Love the energy my guy! Taught me a lot
love hearing it!
new subscriber here, question: how do you get that dramatic look with the black background with does lights?
Well explained, so educational. Thx a lot!
wow， i like loop light. it's very useful and common in documentary interview. thx a lot. wish you release more video for rookie.
In achieving this do do you want the exposure meter as close to 0.0 ? Or is underexposed okay ?
