Molus B500 -- Thanks for the breakdown, Alex! Many of my students like to shoot low-key scenes, and don't expose enough. This video helps bring that idea to life, so I'm going to share this with them. Cheers!
That’s awesome man so glad there’s value in it for them🙌🏻
Molus B500 -- Thanks for the breakdown, Alex! I am prepping a new short film and this is one of the key lighting formats that we are using. Excellent example and demonstration. I can't way to see the film.
Molus B 500,
Great video, I learned a lot from it! I love how you broke away from traditional lighting techniques by using the top light; it really complements the protagonist's story, highlighting his weakness and vulnerability. I just started filmmaking, and your videos have been incredibly helpful. Keep up the good work man! 👏❤️
Molus B500 - My coworker and I always watch your videos during our lunch break! Love breaking down cinematography!
Molus B500- Thankyou for the breakdown, really helpful as I'm learning cinematography and trying to get into filmmaking.

Molus B500. Your content has helped me elevate my lighting. I’ve been practicing at home a lot by myself and posting them on TikTok and Reels. Also been using grids more on my strip box and softbox. Been inspired by Rina Yang as well ever since Top Boy. Can’t wait to do bigger projects and give it these looks.
Also loved that you added the staircase, ladder & pile of wood because it created a frame to put all the focus on you in that scene.
Molus B 500. Great breakdown
Molus 500 wow that's a great compact light to have 💯💯

Molus B500- Thank you for humbly dropping Gems and showing love to Josh and Studio 20
You are very welcome
Molus B500 - Loved your cinematography in this video. Love your studio setup as well. I've been thinking of trying out some top down lighting in some interview setups, but I've always refrained. But its a brilliant look for sure
Molus B500. Great breakdown. Your lighting ratios and color contrast are on point!
MOLUS B500 - I love the production design! Can't wait for the release.
Molus B500 , I have one light why i think i need so many ti start ,really nice break-down
Molus B500 - I am going to work on top down lighting, good explanation. I like seeing the results of a piece of equipment in a production.
Molus B500 - yet another high quality video, I appreciate the breakdown!
MOLUS B500!! This light will kick start my Carrer!!!!!
MOLUS B500
Thanks for the breakdown bro. I’m currently using a turkey pan with led strips on the inside and a frost shower curtain as my lighting lol. It’s what I can afford at this time but I’m not letting that stop me from creating.
