How To Metalcore GUITAR Playthrough | CAMERA & LIGHTING

Музыка

This tutorial goes over all the important details of filming a guitar playthrough including camera settings, lighting, and angles. For this metal, djent, deathcore song I'll be going over all the important tricks and tips to keep in mind before filming a guitar playthrough on your own. Using a ‪@PanasonicLumixVideo‬ S5iiX as a main camera and a ‪@LumixUSA‬ S1 as a BTS camera. Carvin 7 string guitar, Neural DSP Dark Glass, and STL Josh Middleton Tonality. We'll be using Davinci Resolve 18 to edit in the next video.
I'm Brendon Padjasek of the band Structures and welcome to my channel where I cover Modern Metal Music songwriting, mixing and guitar techniques.
