Again, such a joy to be able to do this with you all!!!
SAME!!!!!!!! Can't wait for the next one:)
Thanks for sharing beautiful images and this looks like a lot of fun and on my list to try out 👌
Wonderful! Great tutorial.
Holy cow. This is really cool. Thanks, Ryan and Paul C Buff!
You're welcome!!! It was a blast to be on set for this one
WOW man! thanks for sharing this really, so cool
Very cool totally going to try this
Awesome I enjoyed the video.
Thank you so much, Ryan. I am a beginner at light painting and have been successful with the few sessions I have had. I have used a few light sources but moving the camera slightly was a brand new technique that I learned from your video. I can't wait to try it out! Thank you so much for paying it forward! I believe it is essential to inspire and be inspired!
Thanks for the kind words! Ryan really is great and loves to share his knowledge. Here is a link to his CZcams page to check out more czcams.com/channels/DRzYd49of1GJ8HAVmPKvTQ.html
Nice vid bro!!! Miss you man!! It was good seeing you the other day.
I loved this so much lol 😍😍
Wish there was a love button instead of the thumbs up
Right!?!?
Brilliant... would have loved it if you could write out your camera setting? thanks...
wow
Question: On the second set with the rim lights and the pink gels; do you actually fire them with the flash or just the modeling lights were on in order to create the effect? Second question; how do you keep the modeling lights from melting the gels? Thanks and fantastic images!
Hey Joe! Thanks for watching. Ryan used the modeling light for that second look which created that wavy pink effect. He used our color gel domes (www.paulcbuff.com/Flash-Units/LINK-Products/Color-Gel-Domes.html) that were designed for our newest flash unit , the LINK (www.paulcbuff.com/LINK-Flash-Unit.html). If you have any additional questions about our gear please contact customer service at 1-800-443-5542 (M-F from 9am - 4:30pm CT) or by email at info@paulcbuff.com. And be sure to give Ryan a follow over on Instagram (instagram.com/ryansimsphotography/)!
I use a remote trigger when I do light painting......nice video
That's a great tip for those times when there is no assistant around!
@@PaulcbuffInc I never have an assistant so it really is the only option for me especially when shooting out in the environment
Question.... if u have no model is it possible to be your own model and light painter
If you use an intervalometer, you could be the photographer and the light painter.
Do you have your flash to trigger on second curtain or first.
Hey Fred! It's on first.
where can i get the gel cover from
Hey Michael! Those color gel domes are exclusive to our LINK flash unit and will be on sale very soon. You can read more about them here: www.paulcbuff.com/LINK-Products/Color-Gel-Domes.html
Is there much difference doing tthis with second curtain synch?
Great question! Since the model is still and the movement of the light painting tools is somewhat random, it wouldn't make a difference. Now for example, if you were shooting someone walking across the scene and then stopping, the second curtain sync would work better as the flash would catch them at the end of the movement therefore making the trail be behind them and their image crisp where in first curtain sync the trail would be in front on them and it would appear they were walking backwards. Hope that makes sense! We're not the techiest bunch in the marketing department but we try 😂
@@PaulcbuffInc Thank you. That does make sense.
What settings did you use
Hi there! Ryan's settings are explained throughout the video, and will vary based on your scenario. You can see the settings for his first look at the 12:28 mark, the second look can be seen at the 20:31 mark, and the final at the 22:30 mark. Hope that helps!!
