This is a really great breakdown and it looked fun on set. When gaffing a moonlit exterior, I would heighten the magic realism of the scene and consider the core story elements to find ways G&E could push a more surreal, fantasy-based look while keeping the scene grounded. For this example, I would push the cookie/gobo situation in confusing the viewer's eye with a rotating zoetrope of treebranch cookies/gobos from an Arri 1K tungsten fresnel as a backlight, gelled to CTG, accompanied by another set of treebranch cookies/gobos striking from an Arri 650w tungsten fresnel gelled with CTB, dimmed into the scene as the talent walks from the darkness and into the soft keylight. For fill, the scene would be bounced with Arri 300w tungsten fresnels gelled with CTR striking into unbleached muslin to give the scene even more of a heightened awareness that something is very off story-wise, through the overall fill and red tone.

Brady is hands down the coolest person you guys have had on this channel. The GOAT.

loved that you did different looks and the music matched the vibes. lol the hanging ballast at 11:27 😅

For my own low budget moonlight I’ve boomed a P60C and diffused it through a 40x40 scrim. Then I used a T4C somewhere else in the scene for some fill. Even with just 2 lights it worked pretty well for a smaller scale scene!

last one is my favorite for sure ps thanks aputure fam for bringing me on board this project with legend dp Kevin Reyesssss ily all

Really helpful. I don't often have to do night time exteriors, but they make me really nervous, so this was helpful!

Awesome! I'm glad to see another one of these. I wondered if you all dropped them. IMO, they are some of the best video's on KZread!

This is super creative! Enjoyed watching the behind the scenes process, keep it up guys!

We love this guys!! Thank you and keep it up!

This was pretty sick. Come on Aputure, let’s set up a team like this in the UK. Good to see Kev on here but he chopped da hair 😮

Awesome! Good to see you guys back

This video is amazing, and it has been put together incredibly well! Thank you! :)

Love these videos

Great job, guys!

So good! Great content.

Amazing!!!!

thank u n good job team💙🎬

0:45 Thanks, that arrow really helped me locate the moon.

Ooooo. :0 Very cool video. This would help with drawing lighting too. ^^

The blue and red one was wild but badass

Hey, best crossover ever! :D

Nice 😊

Camera ROLLS sound SPEEDS

Great great! An orange gel will have helped the lamp in the first style look more orange, it looked almost white because you had to drop your camera white balance to simulate nighttime, what do you think?

I'm surprised they didn't talk about the day for night glass filters

Single net is half a stop, and a double is a full stop. They put 1.5 stops off of that light, not 3.

cool vid- real quick tho player, the fingernails got to go..

Painted nails are badass

This obsession with making things look 'beautiful' is a curse of modern cinema. With all respect to everyone involved, these scenes looked overly lit, unnecessarily 'well lit' and just a bit meh as a result. Literally point one light at your actor's face and work it from there. Embrace the dark, shadows are beautiful too.
