    Brady, the best thing about this video is how natural you are. No attempts to act smart or know-it-all. Plain experimentation, thinking aloud, admitting mistakes, humble. It made this very relatable. Thank you for being such an amazing teacher.

    Back/side lighting is exactly what I would have done. Coming from the front looks like you are shining a light on the scene and always looks produced when I see it in films. Good work man! ;)

    Only thing I think would have helped a tad would be getting that moonlight a tad bluer. Prob easy to do in post though. Looks great!

    This is dope Brady! I would have lean the light a little more on the blue side with double diffusion for a soft moonlight to create more of a color contrast with the fire. That’s just my approach though lol, but I think you did a video similar 2 years ago called “How to light a camp fire.” That one in my opinion was more convincing with the moonlight and campfire.

    @lmSlMON Před 8 měsíci

    The 300d on the campfire shot should have come from the other side. Now the shadowside of the face is closest to the fire, which feels unnatural. The tip about lighting the plants/branches with a small led came in clutch!

    Did you slightly over-expose the 12800 ISO in order to bring it down in Post to reduce the grain? Or did you deploy another approach?
    Be good to know.
    Thanks for these. Appreciate it.

  • @NicolasWaldvogel
    @NicolasWaldvogel Před 10 měsíci +3

    Always enjoy your content mate. If I may, I feel you didn't get the ratio's right. The talent's face in relation to the fire in frame looks too lit. To add to that, you could've used a fixture that has a fire flicker effect to sell it more. (maybe swap for the tube light in the tent). Finally, moonlight doesn't look like it does here. Even the big pros struggle to get it right. I would've def cooled off that 1200D with some gel (with the FX3 you have more than enough exposure if you shoot at 10'000). Just my two cents. Appreciate your work as always! Keep it up

    • @peacockpics
      @peacockpics Před 10 měsíci +1

      He also needed another moonlight light for the ground between us and the campfire so it looks less like a street lamp shining in just one part of the woods.
      And yeah definitely agreed about the firelight closeup. Whatever light is supposed to be inside the tent isn’t as dramatic or bright as the fire so he should have moved the 300c down and behind the tent to replace the tube in candle or fire FX mode which would then come from the same direction as the flames.

    May I ask you what profile you used for these? Everytime I try to film at night (even with lots of light) it always comes with lots of grain and I can only see it in post when I start colorgrading. I'm using an a7iii, tried slog 2 and slog 3 with their minimum ISO. The only way I dont get any grain is by using the standard rec 709 profile. Can someone help me?
