Heading to film school for a Masters, your videos were pivotal in getting me accepted. Keep up the great work mate!
I'm going for access to great equipment, collaboration and networking. In the UK its also very affordable.
In the US sure, but most other countries have really good uni/college programs
It's also quite affordable in Canada. If you're a resident. I'll probably go when I finish high school
lol...the closest one to me in southern BC is 30,000 a year...and you don't even use reds
I Am Nerd ? Idk but I'm in Montreal and it's quite affordable
The only reason I like my 4k camera, is not because it makes a 'before' shot look like an 'after' shot, but because it makes an after shot look cleaner, sharper and more professional.
It adds to a decent shot, it doesn't *make* a decent shot.
Yeah well said
Agreed. I have a 4k camera, but I use it only to support the image that I craft using lights, color grading, cinematography, etc.
4k doesnt solve low light though
Nope, but light does.
Yeah, it certainly does. Question is if the extra amount of money you have put into 4k will pay of at the end of the day. For professionals, yeah, 4k is something you need to have. Anyone else doesn't, unless you're very wealthy.
I nearly bought a new camera today, needed this.
Sorry Argos.
hahaha this actually makes me happy #downwithconsumerism
The new LED work lights are so much better than the 500w tungsten ones I used to have to use. I've used the Husky (US?) LED work lights as practicals in commercials before. Great video, makes me want to do a "trip to Home Depot" video too
100% - the color is better than some of my other LEDs that weren't so cheap...! Would love to see your take on this, particularly if you were lighting a bigger set, so it's a real challenge ;)
Me too I'm going get me one!
Awesome! These kind of DIY techniques and story ideas on your channel made my short film for year 12 so much better than anything I could've done on my own. I topped my drama class and I owe a lot of my success to you, Simon.
Keep up the great content!
As always, the perfect vision of someone who values what really is important. Great Again.
Brilliant work! I've been considering upgrading my 600D but after seeing your vids I've very quickly realised there is nothing wrong with the camera / I just need to learn more :-)
Can you make a portable lighting video? like outdoors at night
Yes please!
You can use something like two yongnuo yn300 to light outdoors
that's a pretty good idea, thanks for the suggestion :)
That's by far cheapest idea I can think of for mobile/travel lighting, they are 300 led lights and each only cost $56 dollars, with two cheap light 💡 stands, and two batteries with a charger, you have a two great light kit with approximately $160 dollars
yea
You can never get bored of your videos! Keep it up!
I NEED HELP, im thinking to buy Yongnuo yn 600l led, is this good? recommendation plssssss
Brilliantly demonstrated, Simon. You are so right about focusing on the lighting and the mood of the scene instead of getting stuck on which camera to buy. Love your insights.
I have became interested in video making at the start of this year and I have been watching all your videos since then, and even re-watched them so many times. Although my videos are not the type you would expect after receiving your valuable advise - as I tend to film in the moment -, I have learned a great amount. Not just about what you say in the videos, but the way you create them: the way you use your drawings, photos, sound effects, music, narration and everything else. You are even younger than me... I'm 19... You are an inspiration my friend. Great work!
It's nice to be reminded of how simple (or rather how inexpensive) it can be to light something well. Also I'm really liking the new DSLR guide look/feel. Great job - keep it up!
I honestly don't see how anyone could dislike this guy's videos. He gives such great advice and his videos are entertaining. They're like little films.
I like how you explain every little detail and how to fix something to make it work well. Like the picture frame on the wall with the blue tack.
Ur a star ! Whenever i start to think of buying expensive film gear i stumble upon ur videos and that changes everything.
Back to these kind of videos! I definitely like it :)
You are as gifted a teacher as you are a story teller .... As you are a film maker. Thanks for another great tutorial!
these new videos are so cool! You seem kind of refreshed after your break and the new outro with the super 8 look is awesome!
Oh mate just because of you and your videos I've got interested in filmmaking. In my point of view you are the best guy when it's about learning, developing and especially understanding the things that matter in films. I enjoy re watching older videos to see how much more professional you have become with time. Never stop making great videos and never stop trying to improve!
So in conclusion for myself: get a worklight from a hardwarestore and take some time for the lightsetup :)
or any light, the important thing is the time, not the product :)
I love how intricate these vids are, I'm truly amazed
Love these easy techniques! great work Simon!
Simon, you truly did a wonderful job of giving a handful of tricks that inspire me to look for more ways to easily manipulate a set to change the look of a shot. This one wowed me. Thanks.
SIMOOON! keep moving foward! you are my insperation thank you so much!!!!
You’re such the greatest independent guide of filmmaking on CZcams, no joke thats so useful.
JUST did a lot of this kind of stuff for a music video shoot. I was very impressed by what we were about to do with a couple of cheap clamp lights, some white and black poster board, and some thought.
Simon , thank sooo much for your videos , I begun - and still working with - your same camera . After some pictures took for practice I move forward videos and filmakings . Let me say that your channel it's been so helpful to me . I agree with the philosophy of "ideas are much more important than the cameras "which is a vision understood by few , unfortunally.
Thanks for all the work done until now , keep it up.
Needed to watch this again in 2020, still sooo helpful
Bro.. how many watts does that LED light has? How many watts light is better to lighting
Thank you for reminding me that it's all about lighting position that really helps to make the difference between a regular shot and a more polished shot 🐯
simple, effective, straight forward. keep it up Simon, love the concept and content as always keep pushing forward, fan from Mauritius.... ;)
gosh I'm so happy to have found this channel a while ago; so so inspiring and helpful :)
I bought my first dslr a few days ago and your videos are so inspirational. Keep up the great work and especially this beatiful mind to photo/videography
Dear Simon, I love your videos and I find them very helpful. I'm saving up for a DSLR and I want to go to film school when I'm older. I just wanna say you taught me a lot about films.
I love your videos. Although I'm a photographer, not a videographer, I love all of your videos. Unlike many of the big name photography CZcamsrs always boast and teach about equipment while vaguely saying it's the camera man that matters. You don't just say the the camera man matters, but also show how much the camera man matters.
Thank you!
Great video! Very helpful. I fully agree: lighting is extremely important to get the right look and feel. Thanks for sharing your great tips!
Knowledge is power and I am loving your videos. thanks my man
Wow the things I learned on this channel is unbelievable! Keep up the amazing work man!
thank you for the tips and tricks, Simon. love these videos!!
I was waiting for this video! Thanks man! You are like a mentor to me! Keep it up.
Simon demonstrates importance of lighting a scene and how it can be done cheaply for around $50 using household items. Thanks for the video Simon.
Solid work my friend. Camera's can elevate, but it's on the artist using the camera to create. Great job.
amazing step by step comparison of how each material works - loved this tutorial!
Very nicely done again Simon :') Proud fan of just over a year now!!
One of the first people to teach me the basics (and in-depth) camera/ film techniques :DD
Gosh I love your videos so much. You always give the best advice and even prove it in your work :] love your videos man
As always, awesome video man!!
Loving it so much! This is the truth, gear isn't primary!
Thanks Simon. This is a brilliant video mate, so well explained. I use the T3i as well and I am working on the lighting to my videos. I noticed they are often too dark. Even though I film outdoors this video has helped me immensely.
Never gets old.
most helpful video I've seen in my life. thank you, Simon.
Please do more of these videos! I love them
brilliant video. always learn something and you're super thorough and clear
Excellent information Simon, thank you. I've got GoPro's, Nikon D7000 and flagship smartphones in abundance but I've been struggling to get the shots to look any good, to the point of total disheartenment. I was looking at new cameras too, seems I need to spend more on lighting and less on Cameras, thank you for this DIY version as I can now experiment without huge cost, to then invest in pro gear once I know what I need and what i'm doing.
Absolutely brilliant. Everything about your channel is amazing. Love the work.
Like the way you put together the video in just a few minutes. Great job
Fantastic! Probably my favourite video of yours.
I love the style with the music and sound effects when you see the prices.
I really like this style of videos, well done and continue with your channel like this. Love your channel, thanks for doing this work to share with the community.
This was brilliantly done.
Great tips on DIY Lighting. Thanks Again Simon.
Thank you for another inspiring video! Love your new track!
I totally remember when you used to film from your desk. Congrats on how far you've come.
Classic episode of DSLRguide ❤
I love these kind of videos! Thanks for making them :)
Your videos are absolutely awesome! Every video is very useful. Listening to your explanations are very interesting, and surprisingly never boring. And for that, I thank you! The tips about using something 1/4 inch threaded on the hardware LED light was brilliant! I'm doing that very soon. Keep up the great work, I've subscribed and look forward to more videos from you.
Your videos are so good! You are the best at doing this kind of videos.
You make me think about details, I started paying more attention to lights, frames and sounds since I follow you channel!
I'm so glad to have found your channel :D
Dude, you're awesome! Thanks for all the videos! My stuff sucks for now, but slowly I will find my way :) Thanks again man! Much love from the states!
I always feel so inspired after watching your videos:)
I do this all the time :) just for casual photos but when I'm working with studio lights at my school, I can't plug in more than 3 or else everything will short circuit (which turns off the computers we use to edit, so there were quite a few people upset with me) So now I work with limited lighting all around, but it really teaches you to be resourceful.
I just love lighting videos!
Fantastic suggestion on the cheap LED work lights. Thanks Simon!
I instinctively like your videos! Nice work man!
One of the best tutorial videos. Thank you.
This is what i love to see, quality content in youtube, great channel.
Love this video, a DIY video has never made me feel more inspired
This channel is a gem
Decided to create a cinematic lighting setup video for less than $100. inspired by this, one of my first videos! Thanks for the content. So cool! Stay safe
Thank you for the tutorial, Simon! It really helps.
That was aamzing i love how simple you made it to understand love your vids bud keep it up. Your so right its not he tools its the way you use them
Good work! Some solid lighting basics.
Simon, you're a legend.
Simon, you're my hero.
Excellent video, Simon.
Absolutely correct about the light! Which is why I'm sorry to see film cameras (still and movie) disappearing. Sure you had light meters and such but you had to think before you shot or you ended up wasting a lot of money. With digital all you seem to hear is, "I'll fix that in post. Now for this next....."
This is crazy man. I NEVER thought about how much should go into a scene. Good info (:
love love love these videos. so well explained. Thanks a bunch. have learned tons...
Your work always inspires me. Keep making :)
You are like one of the best youtubers ever! What an awesome video! I actually applied/tried to do most of your tutorials in my projects for school (i'm taking up film) and other shoots. And guess what, my content got 2x better.
that was very impressive! can't imagine how much work you have put into before seeing those!
Always good stuff!
Amazing as usual
Hey Simon, great video! Keep up the AMAZING work, your videos have helped us a lot
Mind literally blown dude. Thank you so much!
This was awesome Simon 😀🎥. Thank you.
I love the playful editing on this one!!
Excellent presentation and thanks for the tips! :)
These videos are amazing!! Thank you so much!
Great tips. I use a T3i too and love it. Not interested in changing any time soon until I've exhausted what I can do with it or it breaks down.
this is so complex i love it
why didn't I meet you when I lived in England lol!! you teach us so much and I really appreciate it! you make me realize I DO have what it takes
Simon Kate, you did it again. You did put time into it and did get a amazing produckt
