First Time Lighting an Interview

Hey everyone! Sorry for be absent the past couple weeks. This week I wanted to just go over some footage I got trying to practice for interviews. I have limited experience with this so if you guys notice anything that could be improved please point it out!

    This is separate from the lighting, but you can desaturate the reds when you color grade. Remember people have blood inside of them so its easy to oversaturate the reds lol

    I can relate to not having a lot of experience in setting up shots for interviews and earlier this year, I had to film an entire project like this and I learned a so much. you did a great job, dude! it looks amazing and I love the way you color grade

    For sure, I got so much value from hearing you talk through what was 'wrong' in the second setup. Even when you think you know, hearing and seeing your troubleshooting process is HIGH value.

    Just found your channel and subbed. You have a nice style, just fyi this mic/ audio set up is not working at all, its panning all over in headphones and popping on your p's, no consistency with distance to you mouth so volume goes up and down. Don't mean to be an ass just thought you should know, its really awful and hard to listen to.
