Once DP of LOTR was asked: where light is coming from in X scene? He said: same place as the music

Only recently came across this channel and some really fantastic content that just hits better than many others out there. Well done great stuff and thank you for sharing your insights!

[ZvilgantisKailis]

My two cents here. Those looks comes from lights, camera angle, lens AND production design which is how talent is dressed, how the room looks, what stuff is there, what is the light source (windows, lamps, other shiny objects), color scheme, the over tone and mood in the frame. Everybody talks and shows all those cameras, lenses and lights. No one on Youtube is talking and showing where to get those blue chairs and how they manage to get same color on the benches and the back wall at 9:09

Great editing, pacing, and appropriate level of detail for the video length. I appreciate how you tie everything back to storytelling and frame everything to "What is this communicating to the viewer?" . Just sub'd, keep it up!

[ubunifuarts]

Really really informative video... Do you know where we can lighting diagram vectors which we can use to make lighting diagrams for our setups...

[cliftonsledge]

Very informative video Alex, that John Wick look is a serious eye opener. My goal is to achieve that look. Thanks for sharing some of the secrets of good film making.

The shot with the girl, I think you missed an important part. Her eyes and the eye light. U can see from the reflections it looks like there's 3 light source to help wrap the key to create what looks like a 1:1 ratio on her face
