Why can't everyone wear contacts? :D
What about using a circular polarizer in front of the camera lens? I'm more than a bit surprised this wasn't mentioned, yet that may just be my lack of experience showing. Stealing too much light?
@@ElectroTone no, you’re actually right. I forgot to put it in the video 🤦🏻♂️
@@damiencooper 😆 OK, fair enough. BTW I just recently 'discovered' your channel, and I really like your content. 👍
@@ElectroTone usually that won’t work because it’s a different type of reflection, more like a mirror and won’t dissapear with polas. Very few times it helps
Glasses gives character to some characters
I haven’t even seen the video but by the title this needs a million views
fingers crossed :D
Great tips, You could also get a Polarizing filter which will reduce the reflection and some highlights reflections so if you want those be careful.
Great video Damien! Love the tip with using a small pocket light to find the point where the reflection is not visible.
Great tips. Thank you
Good tips and tricks! Thank you!
great tips, comprehensive tutorial!
Amazing. Thx.
Great lighting subject for a video. Would love to see a part two with recommendations from the comments here.
Awesome tips! Thanks for the vid ✌🏻
Sehr geil 🎉
The video we didn’t know we needed !
Great video
Great one! Nobody talks about that!
great tips! thanks
glad you liked it!
Great video! Thanks for these tips!
thanks for the comment!
The video I didn’t know I needed 😭
Hi Damien! Cool video! What about using a polarizer!? Lg, Ferdinand
cheers man your really helped me 😊
I just focus on the light angle and then use a circular polarizer to cut all the excess reflections out of the glasses and skin with a much more pleasing final image.
The polarizer is actually a good idea. Totally forget to put it in that video!
@@damiencooper Great results for a minor -1 hit in exposure.👌😜
Yeah, I always remember I have a CPL after I changed my lights, haha.
@@WhySteve It kind of increases your dynamic range and gives an6 overall pleasing image! Always using it even at night on my a7SIII.
This was great!!!
Glad you liked it!
Great subject Damien. We've all been there.
Most underrated youtuber 🔥
I have to deal with this all the time with interviews. I use the same methods. Great video.
I bet it's even worse with greenscreen
@@damiencooper it is hard when using a solft box. I prefer using a book light setup a much as possible with a 6x6 or 8x8.
Easy. Bring the key light very close to subject and turn down the brightness. Inverse square law. The brightness of the modifier will be seen in the glasses, or any object with reflection. You always see the reflection if the modifier brightness is high.
This is some great info
Thanks for the kind comment
@@damiencooper you’re welcome
Great video brother!
Thanks a lot!
Sometimes tilting the glasses down a smidge (lift the legs off of the talent's ear) is enough to remove reflections.
Yep, for the same reason that raising the key light can help. You're changing the light's angle of incidence
Thanks for the insights... can setting the light on top...on a Jim arm kind of, won't that be helpful as well?
Sieht mega aus! What for Lenses do you use most of the time for interviews? 35?, 50?, 80? ...
This was a good video
Thank you, glad you liked it!
Thank you. I just started wearing glasses and I was struggling with the reflections.
good timing ;)
Get a polarizer too
As an Canon shooter is ok AF with Canon RF mount and EF lenses? I wanna jump to R5C but I afraid of using EF lenses because of slow autofocus. I heard that Canon slowdown AF with every non-Canon non RF lenses.
Try use CP filter - much easiest way and You can set much light better without limit
I recently had a job to photograph (still images) over 50 subjects in 2 sessions (25 each day). They were coming at me fast and furious...every 15 minutes. Some had glasses, some didn't. My simple solution, when I couldn't eliminate the reflections by moving the light, was to just tilt the glasses forward a bit. The glasses mostly held their position readily, and none of the subjects objected. And the glasses didn't look strange on their faces.
If the glasses wouldn't hold their tilted position, a tiny piece of rolled tissue on the ear and under the temple (glasses arms) did the trick, but I didn't have to use that on any of the 50 portraits.
By the 5th person I would have just said “take the fonking glasses off”
@@NoahStephens Well, that might have been one solution. But, for some people who always wear glasses, they become almost unrecognizable without them. Additionally, when you take the glass off of them, you often end up with two "indents" where the glasses rest on the bridge of the nose.
Is the key light you use in the video actually a softbox? Seems like a bounce with a spotlight on it? Curious what light you used to achieve this output if it is a softbox
It is.. It's that one: www.intellytechusa.com/collections/litecloth-3-0/products/mega-8fc-litecloth-3-0-foldable-led-mat-w-3x5-softbox-kit?ref=nqledr65
They just came out with this new version. I absolutely love it!
@@damiencooper Wow, awesome. RGBWW even
Is that a Karl Kani shirt? Respect.
Haha, yeah. I own them in every color and multiple hoodies and hats too 😅
Great video, thank you! Just a little feedback from an amature viewer - it makes me feel uncomfortable when there is so little space between the top of your head and the top frame of the image.

Great tips, thank you...
Thanks for the comment! You're welcome!
