Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 05. 2017
- Film Noir is one of the most fun styles to create! From The Maltese Falcon to Touch of Evil, it is easily one of the most recognized looks in cinematic history.
Today we talk about how you can easily match that classic style and how we pulled off our Secrete Sale ad without a green screen!

Do you think Noir is a Genre or a Style?
style
Film Riot Style
Style
Yeah, style. I think a genre isn't as much how something looks buts more what the story is like.
Film Riot genre all the way
Ryan literally explained a semesters worth of my film genre class into 2 minutes.....
I feel like a perv for watching all the way to the end.
+Patrick Fales You dirty dawg!
yeah me too...
dirty dawg it is
The show's over.
Go home.
It began as a genre, but now it's a clear style.
back in the day, they had no after effects - it was all done with fine-grained film and lighting on set - no room for mistakes
I think theres a lot to be learned from it
I learn more here than what I learn on my film 101 class
+Alexis Sotelo Thanks man! So glad you dug if.
Good to know
Those brick wood panels are pretty sick!
They are amazing. Tons of styles to choose from too.
I thought the same. Buying some!
SO Refreshing to see the comedic sketches.
"Ring ring, Triune Pizza, how can we help?"
"Uhh, do you guys deliver (on promises?)"
"HELL YES WE DO."
hahaha!
now this is film riot, back to form
RAHUL JIMMY Ryan and I had a small chat on Twitter, and i mentioned bringing back those comedic sketches within tutorials. He said there will be plenty more soon. Today's episode reminded me why I love Film Riot in the first place.
that's right
NiftYeee so true
"Sponsor time..." Lol
+Brian Torsell :)
I was waiting for this after reading your comment. Was NOT disappointed. 😂
Thoroughly enjoyed this episode. The 'sponsor time' intro had me chuckling 😂Kindly consider making a film noir short film. I know you guys would crush it. Do it! The World needs it!😊
This was amazing, one of the best visual explanations you guys have ever done! Not to mention the effect you guys created looked so damn amazing!
+Liam Moscrop Thanks man. Josh and Justin did an amazing job with the examples.
Do one for Spaghetti Westerns.
+BeReelPictures That's a good one.
Film Riot Omg yes I expect some Sergio Leone refrences. I look forward to that one and throughly enjoyed this one.
Film Riot yeah I'm hoping to do a spaghetti western myself next, ha ha
YES!!
done
First off, you guys are off the chain!!! Film Noir is definitely a style. As a photographer I use the film noir style of shooting from time to time to dramatic effect. Anyway I enjoy your videos and I have learned a lot about lighting in the process. Thanks for what you do.
These are some great beginners tips towards achieving a noir film!! Thank you so much!
Your tutorials really hit home - great job!
You guys are so creative and inspirational. You all make me go and DO !! Thanks guys!
That Shot at 2:11 is simply amazing! I loved the lighting brushing on the shoulders and the chin & bottom lip nicely lite. Could you please explain the lighting placement and the diffuser angle to the subject? Thanks in advance.
Finishing up a comedy noir short film myself! Glad to see Film Riot appreciates such an amazing genre!
I think black and white is a perfect way to watch movies changes continuities where characters come off the page
It is one great perfect way to watch a live action movie to experience the book world just like you never seen it before it is a perfect way to watch movies I grew up watching black-and-white then since the Three Stooges came out as a TV series
From modern-day Nomar from classic Noir I like watching movies to both ways in color in classic black and white. You can tell the difference between a book world
It is very cool
You nailed the style, I love it. I had goosebumps when I saw the scene with the gun. So badass.
Great video, especially the explanatory introduction to Noir. Thanks for this :)
Great episode guys. I'm liking the simplicity of the noir style. .and animatics [if you ever cover this one] and the silent film look [with over cranked camera]. Thanks for sharing guys. It's inspiring. I want to make all of these mentioned.
Great Vid! This gave me a lot of ideas. Thanks!!!
Awesome video! It's always nice to learn more styles. I was half excepting a noir challenge though....
Haha awesome guys! This would be a really fun Monday challenge!
Film Noir is my favourite genre and thank you for showing me how to make one.
This video was great I used the blinds lighting effect in my noir and it looks amazing
Awesome vid! Loved the history behind this one
Very handy for me, I'm trying to make a little noir short myself just now, thanks!
So so good. So so good.
I loved the history lesson! You should do that more!
Well needed tutorial!! Thank you Film Riot!
You are so awesome guys, thank You!!!
Great episode! I'm gonna try to use more of these techniques in my movies!
Thx! Your video was very helpful on my latest project!!!

well impressed with this video. any new short films on the horizon for us? I've been binge watching the last few hours, and nothing but respect for you guys.
Been waiting for a noir episode from you guys a long time. 2:09 is just so cool. Thank You Film Riot. #inspiring
Been trying to make my own neo-noir stuff lately, thanks for the tips!
BEST EPISODE EVER!
Omg this is amazing! So informative. I want to do a film noir style video and this a is perfect teaching tool thanks! New subscriber!! 🎬
great episode!
The second I finished this video, I opened Fade In, and started writing a noir, oh my god it's so stylized, ur tips are awesome, and will help a lot with he noir I will attempt to create
+AlexMcD6 That's awesome!
It still looks super cool in color.
Great stuff.
Post credits are awesome.
INCREDIBLE
Touch Of Evil is so beautiful, it's almost as if it IS in color.
This was awesome (as always)
Please do more videos about history of film
Great stuff as usual guys! thanks for being awesome for so long! What Smallhd monitor was that?
I seriously appreciate the set design for the sponsor time skit.
noir style is a class. it's not a easy sector to choose. must've some knowledge! well done film riot!
Love the ending 🤣🤣
LOVE THE SESCRET ENDINGS.
Okay. No joke I JUST finished uploading my noir film and I went on this channel yesterday to see if they made a video like this but knowing my luck they planned it so I couldn't use this knowledge.
for real tho great video guys
In John Alton's "painting with light" lies the secret to Film Noir! Awesome book!
this is a great trick!
1000th Like! :-) That ending!
You guys weren't sorry hahaha. I'm glad you put out this video. I was seriously curious as to how to make this genre of film (I think it there is a style to it as well. Australia is a country and a continent, ya know?). Keep it up guys!
I love Ryan's T-shirt.
ryan you really direct noir well
Thanks man.
i realy liked the end, so funny! :-D
Thanks mahn
Guys you're the best!
Awesome! Thanks for the BTS! Er, and the ads/vids too, I think, er, well, um, maybe ... :0)
Merci, товарищи!
Oh yeah super cool.
BEST SPONSOR TIME EVER!!!!!!
That ending was great as well!
Wow! I'm early! Nice vid too!
Thanks. :)
im actually watching this for the lighting and set aspect...
i got ideas for practical effects (blood explosion, blood, and gun shots)
and i got a film photo camera and film noir 400 ISO.. im going to take pictures
great creative video and nice insight into set design!
I like neo-noir. Striking example is Batman: Begins and The Crow
Awesome
NICE.
beautiful intro
That was the best sponsor time AD I ever seen form you guys 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🕵🏽💃🏽
Nah... close 2nd. The one a few years ago, when Josh (without the beard!) said the whole Domain dot com text in a super seductive voice, and his bro replied "no homo... but that was hot" was the best. Still trying to find that episode again, by the way.
I like using UV lights for film noir and b&w scenes in general. If ur scene has white fabric, especially on ur talent, once u apply the b&w filter in post u get really crisp black to white contrast.
+Kompa Jessi Sounds cool. I need to test that.
I love film noir
Noir is a stylistic genre in my opinion, a genre which comes with it's own unique style.
I love The Maltese Falcon! Great video! Thank you for sharing the tips and information. 🎥
It is totally a style that can be used in many genres; like Blade Runner is scifi noir or even the Harry Potter movies...
+Aaron G. Randall LOVE The Maltese Falcon.
I think if I were stuck on an island with only that movie to watch, I would be just fine. For a while at least. lol
i like to make movies so i watch your videos so thanks dude
Best ending!
love your works I just premiered my Short over at the VCTC film festival and was wondering if you guys may be capable of critiquing it since I was inspired by you guys
😂😂😂😂 the end bit... 👌👌
Hey Film Riot, what do you recommend for clothing under the trench coats and fedoras?
Great tips! Just shot a contest film in the noir style. Could have taken advantage of several. ;-P
I'm sad that you didn't go through the process of adding the moon to the background. I'm mostly curious if you composited it in After Effects or just did it in Photoshop. You got a nice, natural shine hitting the top of those buildings and the water in your final shot. In the image you chose for the cityscape, there is a lot of light from the buildings that's hitting the water (unlike your final shot that has a much softer reflection). The moon is that extra soft aspect that really sells the shot. Like you said, it's all the aspects of a shot (lighting, wardrobe, angles, etc.) that really sells the final product. That's why I'm a little sad that you didn't cover that small detail.
All that to say, I did really enjoy this episode! Great work as always. :)
The last 30s or something, amazing hahahah
