This was probably the worst (Best) lighting video I’ve ever seen. This guy has no idea (knows exactly) what he is talking about. Everyone involved should probably drop dead (keep making this quality content that informs and entertains)! In all seriousness, this is great, keep it up!

Well, in an actually lighting course you can probably give people this same info in 10 minutes at the start of the semester but then it will take them the rest of the semester to actually learn how to use it and understand it. So anyone who watches this video might have the info but they're still going to have to go out and put in practice to really understand it and own it. Please note: this is not a critique of the video. It's well thought out straight to the point and nicely done.

he got a couple of stuff wrong, there's no such thing as a standard key light position, he got the definition of keylight wrong, a keylight is the main source of light. he got flat lighting wrong. Flat lighting is when your subject is evenly lit. The light doesn't have to be close to the camera. There are no placement rules for lights, if you're in a lighting course in college they would of told you this. This is the same reason why people keep calling every camera move a pan

@BombshellCelluloid

@@AnimeZone247 I don't think he got them wrong. He explained the reasons behind the placement suggestions and also said these are guidelines. For instance he specifically says what flat lighting is and then gives the EASIEST way to get it in a 'text book' situation. But, that IS why trying to learn lighting from just a 10 minute video is only going to teach you the rudimentary 'standards' to fully understand it you've got to put it into practice, which is also what he says as well.

When I came here and saw the "10 minute" length of the video, I immediately thought "oh no... clickbait!! As 10 minutes seems to be the magical length most clickbaiters strive for so they can trigger that 'second advertisement' in their video. But noooooo!! This was 10 minutes of pure, solid GOLD. Information-packed throughout with no filler to speak of. Most excellent!!! And wowzers -- I learned a few things as well (us old timers don't know it all). Thank you SO MUCH for putting together this content -- I know how much time and effort goes into making videos like this, so just know it's greatly appreciated.

As a 20 year video professional, I appreciate that you're not another goofball youtuber who thinks they know a thing or two. Solid info here covering the foundational basics of good lighting in one concise video - and a nice refresher for us veterans :D Well done!! Btw, the most common use of "High Key" lighting is in News studios; soft, flat, and always even, so they don't have to adjust the lighting whenever different anchors and guests are on set.

You illustrated a lot of key areas where no other KZreadr have ever mentioned in their lighting tutorial. Truly a master of light!

Reason why we are all hunting KZread for lighting tutorials: it’s hard to find legitimate classes from professionals. This video was super helpful, thank you for the great content

one of the best channels to learn about light, 100%

I've watched at least a dozen videos on lighting this week (while trying to set up a rudimentary youtube studio). This was the best and most helpful by far. Thank you for taking the time to make it. You know you've got a winner when people watch it, and immediately watch it again. As I'm about to do! Also, your ending caught me off guard. I got a little chuckle out of that. Nice job friend. :-)

the way you ended the video... earned you my sub!!! Absolutely awesome stuff. From a small youtuber in Ghana (africa) looking to do better! well done!!

This is the type of content you would find in a paid masterclass. Thank you so much for providing such high quality content for free. You guys honestly deserve so much more views and subscribers.

Man this is real stuff out here. That's for the content in this channel, super dope! thank you, thank you!

“Cinematic” is an over-used word. I’m pretty sure real filmmakers don’t set out to make a “cinematic” movie....they just make a movie.

@@EpicLightMedia Agreed... Plus, not everyone has the opportunity to get in the head of an actual cinematographer/DP to understand what they're thinking about lighting a scene and what it does to move the story. Too many times youtubers show how a lighting is achieved but as far as why or what it does for the story, I don't see as much. I like how this video did some of that. :)

Just shared this with a bunch of my photography pals, because this is pretty much one of the best descriptions of HOW and WHY lighting works. And some of them really need it.

Okay, I have no idea how I stumbled upon your channel a couple weeks ago, but I’m so glad I did! I’m a student filmmaker at Columbia College Chicago and I always get excited to watch your videos! I make narrative films and on the side I do freelance so your videos really help me out. I also really like the energy and personality you bring to these videos.

This was great, man! Thanks. I've been a filmmaker and actor for a long time and I'm just now learning about these lighting techniques. I've used some of them before, but I didn't know exactly what I was doing or what they were called. I just knew the look I wanted. Now, I'm ready to do some big time experimenting. Thanks a bunch!

learned a lot. thank you

Telling me not to subscribe makes me want to subscribe more!! You're not in lighting, you're making a book about persuasion aren't you?! Subbed.

Congratulations and thanks very much! The best and more comprehensive video about this subject I could find in youtube.

i have a very little background in animation and one point of time i wanted to learn about lighting and there was not so much within my reach, i cant believe what you have offered, this feels like i just finished my 4 or what ever years of lighting course from the top most university, and feels like i can actually go and make a movie with so much confidence. you dont have clue what have you offered and that too in what 10 minutes. thanks a zilliooooooooooooon!!!

THE BEST LIGHTING TUTORIAL, I had to pause it to really absorb the in highly condensed information. Absolutely Brilliant, Genius, A*******************************. So many questions answered. The flashbacks from real movies were really helpful.

This video is the most short and best explicate ever about lighting. Thanks so much

Best lighting tutorial on KZread to ever exist on lighting best practices. THANK YOU.

The best tuts of light ever!!! Its quite easy to understand

You're so cool. Ur explanations are smart and witty--far from dull. You are much better than those so-called experts!

THANK YOU. Love the info, the tips and your super tone. You have my attention now!

2 years of my master degree in film, not a single cinematography instructor touched based on the very detailed things that you have explained in this video, I will suggest my whole class to watch your lighting tutorial as they are directly related to films and practicality. Please keep creating amazing lighting tutorials as there is not a single youtube channel specializing on the film lighting.

This is by far the best explanation of lighting that I've come across.

This was actually really great. At first, I thought this was going to be another photographer talking about cinematography. Thanks!

omg ... thank you! not so many (good) educational lighting videos out there. this is just awesome!

Best video of lighting i have watched on youtube! No Cap!!!!

As an amateur photographer I really learned great info from this video. So well done! Great examples and explanations. I've watched tons of how to vids on the subject, but this is easily the best. Thank you!

OMG!!! She smiles!! What a difference! So relatable...ups the content considerably, and the content is tres valuable. Thanks!! so much of the presenter's affect reminds me of Albert Brooks. That's a compliment, I think.

It's refreshing to see videos about lighting, which like you said is way more important than the camera you're shooting on. Also lighting people and not banging on about "cinematic b-roll!" Thanks.

That was such an amazing overview! Thank you, I can't wait to play with light!!!

You nailed it in the end, good performance and very helpful tips and lessons. This was really great, I learnt loads by watching it

Great advice all the way through. And thank you for the reminder that there are other channels for finding lessons from professionals.

Excellent video! I recently watched a CG video on creating stylized art and the video was talking about these lights. I had no idea what they were. This really clears it up in a very comprehensive and clear way.

I have checked most of lighting TUT, You really have killed it. I understood you from the word go tnx.

Thank you this finally makes sense to me and I have watched a ton of videos to understand this. So thank you please keep it up

I never thought that I would learn so many new lighting terms in just 10 minutes. Thanks for the video.

Have watched several lighting tutorials, this is the most useful to me.

This is very informative and useful and I had no concept of the importance of lighting at all. What's good is you hit all the key points in this 10 min video without all the waffle and I appreciate that. I'm also going to look at getting some lighting to grade up and improve the standard of the handful of videos that i've done previously

The only negative about this video is that I can't leave a two big thumbs down! Awesome work. Really clear and inspiring.
