I wonder where this channel has been my whole life!

For those wondering how we captured my perfect audio in the house while I was talking about lighting... we used a toilet paper roll. For post processing we placed the roll in a bowl of warm water and sloshed it around.

I've been looking for this sort of content. Lighting is so important, thank you for this! Keep 'em coming!

The only thing to note here (which was touched upon in the video) is that you will need a massive amount of light to compete with the daylight coming through large windows. Here they're using 2x Aperture 300s, which are roughly equivalent to a 1K HMI. That's a lot of light! Alternately you can choose a tighter shot and move your light source in closer to the subject. Just be aware that you won't be able to pull this off with a 20W LED panel.

loved it! and tip with closing down apurture for close up love it! thanks

Hands down one of the best lighting videos out on KZread. Thanks for this top notch presentation guys!

Your sense of humor is as huge as your heart. Love your videos.

Forreal dude this is the best lighting channel i've ever seen. I've been trying to recreate this exact production look since i got my DSLR. Thank you~! Trying to make silly commercials.

Lol you guys got me with the intro and the skip ad button.

So much value in these videos guys! Thanks so much.

Your engagement with the audience is on point....content is equally good. keep them coming. Subscribed !

Epic Light Media is one of my favs on KZread right now. You guys rock!

I don't understand how 41 seconds of this lady telling me not to subscribe made me subscribe. Really not what I'm used to seeing on KZread.

i feel like i should've have paid for this!! ... quality content right here... as a freelancer this is so much helpful

It's great to see someone embrace bright, cheery, high key lighting for a change! Many shooters default to dark and moody "cinematic" (ha!) lighting for everything they shoot. That treatment doesn't fly for a lot of commercial and corporate work. The 7' umbrealla is a good alternative to a large diffusion frame. I can't fit a 4x4' frame into my car, but I could find room for a large umbrella when collapsed. Q: Was the lighting difficult for Michelle to deal with? Overly strong lighting can be really tough on some talent's eyes. She doesn't appear to be squinting, so I guess it was fine for her.

@EpicLightMedia

4 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Yeah it wasn’t too bright for her. I’ve noticed diffused light even if it’s bright usually isn’t a problem. I think it’s important to have the lights already on and running when the subject enters the room. If a light is turned on once they sit down they might comment about the brightness more often

@@EpicLightMedia A trick that can help is to have the talent close their eys and "look" directly into the light. This will allow their pupils to partially adjust to the light. Then, have them redirect their "look" towards the camera (or interviewer) position before opening their eyes. This can help people who have overly sensitive eyes.

I'm so glad you talked about raising the Aperture/TStop value when changing to tighter lens. This is so often overlooked, even by seasoned pros. It is definitely not common knowledge. Everyone must have skipped that day of school.

PLEASE make more videos, this channel is amazing! 💖💖

One of the best channels out there, with incredible in between tips!🔥

He mentions Quasar in several other videos. Presumably it's one of those.

The sad part about these videos is that, when they end, I know that I’ve released the maximum amount of dopamine in my brain for a while. The next coming days will be dull, lacking anything exciting or interesting. I won’t be happy, nor will I be able to enjoy a full erection either. I’ve learned to cope with it, but I will still pass every coming day wishing for yet another ELM video.

Dude, your channel is dopppeeee! Thanks so much for putting up the great work!

you wont often get to see these type of videos for free..hats off Sir..Thanks for all your amazing lighting contents

In reverence for Potato Jets dog dying, I am going to call a temporary moratorium on being snarky towards him. . . You know what I really hate about you: you know way too much about this stuff. I tune in to look at the pretty girl and I end up learning about lighting. BTW I love the dogs!

How many of you clicked on the Skip Ad?

Thank you! I've been fighting a room with a lot of windows and (even filming on iPad) your suggestions of a high key next to the windows and a bounce have helped immensely.

I'm a photography student, and this is better than anything I've seen in a textbook. Showing the "low effort Zoom meeting" baseline indicates what to expect - and to fix - before lighting and each step is clearly explained in context. You worked with existing light in ways I would not have tried to produce quality results with less equipment and labor. And as a still photographer working solo, less is always more. Incidentally, I can guarantee that umbrella will work with HMIs - a lot of traditional strobe heads had 500w halogen modelling lights and those big 4800Ws flashtubes get pretty toasty.

OMG, I love this type of breakdowns!!! thank you so much! :3

Thanks for doing this demo; some awesome tips in there! Comparing your end shots to the examples you put in there, they're definitely getting a lot more wrap-around on their key lights. Imo that's the one thing keeping yours from competing with those, looks-wise. A massive silk is hard to beat.

Really was hoping you make a video about this, thanks!!

Love this video. Great explanation of the lighting setup and a nicely crafted shot too.

Love this! Been looking for more videos on hi key lighting this is perfect :)

evrything you do is soo amazing i love your work you really help us get better thank you for what you doing and all the time you spend for such high quality content!!!!

This was fun, educative and just in overal super high quality. Can't wait to learn more from you. Greetings from the Netherlands!

Wow man!!! You guys can make anyone look good with those *EPIC* lighting.

Love the homage to Ferris Bueller’s Day Off at the end. Nice!!

Great video..super helpful. Michelle is great---perfect for the commercial...and really funny.

BY FAR my favourite video channel! Peter mckinnon talk too much without saying any thing. I'm learning here more than i learned from my arts college

THIS IS OUR NEW FAVORITE KZread CHANNEL!!!! WHAT AMAZING AMAZING CONTENT FOR FILMMAKERS, THANK YOU!!!

Thanks , perfect content. Presentation and style better than ever

Haha loved the outcome of the commercial! Great humor and explanation on how you put everything together! 😂

The Knowledge you provide is immense..... Epic Light Media thank you so much.

Great video! Working on a few commercials and I was looking for a video like this!

This guy is really sharing industry know-how and real professional insights rather than just drawing attentions to get views with very few real content like many “KZreadr” do 🎉

This is bloody amazing! Super original

I still can't believe this is free, thank you again.

One of the reasons why I subscribed in this channel is because of their humor.

huge help! really enjoy your videos

People love you the way you talk and explained things clearly, not the other two guys .You have the skills and way of transmitting information so maybe you can teach to a university when you retire .

Interesting idea to use the umbrella. I come from the photography world and actually have one of those, but I'm often left wondering how to mount a light panel to it. Never thought to use a grip head, might have to try that on my next shoot.

This is some quality content! I loved it!

I can appreciate the effort to remove the reverb from the room. amazing videos guys as always.

I'm extremely sorry for being SUBSCRIBED to your channel. That golden tip "closing down the apurture for close up shots" thanks a lot. love your dark humor!

The end bit got me😂😂... This video is entertaining and insightful thumbs up man👍

ahaha I love your videos guys! keep posting these light setups, they are really interesting ! Cheers

Love this channel so much ❤

"Having the ears in focus looks better" - 100% agreed. And I would argue still further that it is necessary for a commercial shoot.
