Mr. Botvidsson, please don't let us wait a long time for your videos, I hope you upload every day one video.
Thanks 😁 Well, I do need to work also, that's why I do not upload so often. When I hit 100k subs I will do one video per day 😉
Last time when i was bored at home, so i do product photo by stacking 5 photos with Nikon. One part of photo was metal plate like a floor, night warm lamp with classic 60W bulb like light source, and of course parfume - this was a object. I was suprised how easy it was without any equipment. I think creative photographer can do any photos in any condition. Like smartphone and one ledlamp. Nice video !
Thanks, yes so true. Hope that people will understand this
Martin, your visualization and verbalization on how you approach and reach a decision is very educational.
Very kind words. BIG thanks for that!
@@botvidsson Your welcome. I would love to show you my very first product shot (Harmon Kardon Speaker) using your technique of using a single LED light source at different angles. You can see it here on my facebook page: facebook.com/vanderholtproductions/
This is mastery. Thanks for sharing with us you don't need expensive kits to get the job done. An understanding of light and a little creativity can still make a great image. You could use the torch of another phone. You can use a desk lamp. Alan Watts said the sound of the rain needs no translation and I think it applies well here.
That's so true! Like the Watts quote! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!
I like the style of his talks, chilled-out attitude, and how relaxed he is when talking. Great stuff! I definately subsribed after the first video I watched.
Big big thanks. Really nice to hear this!
it's so much awesome, I can't wait to watch the compositing video
It will come! Thanks!
This one is going to be good, I can just feel it!
Hehe, thank you so much Tammy!
@Simon Mwangi Me too! 😄
Ey man... I really love your videos and I wish you keep posting some more tips about photography of products. You're a motivation for me. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much. I will make more videos.
Though the video was directed at those without gear, it is also inspiring to those who use the pro gear to get back to simple basics and have some fun.
Yes, why not. It's all about understanding the light, does not matter what light source you're using. Flashes are better and easier but this an option for those who starting out. Thanks!
Amazing! After the retouching episode you could do one about the Business End of Commercial Photography. Not as exiting, but it will help the ones starting from cero. ;)
Yes, I'm planning to do one on that topic.
botvidsson - That’s amazing!
It's a really cool video. Why didn't I think about using it like this? I always get a lot of help!!!
Great to hear my friend!
hi you are awesome, Can you make a video about the process of mounting photos in photoshop? thank you for all de tips.
I will do a follow up video on the retouching part for this photo. Soon to come...
botvidsson ¡Tnx dude!
OMG...this video really separates the boys from the men.. you make this look so easy. I haven’t managed to get a similar result yet, but practice makes perfect.. thanks for all your kick ass videos and tutorials..
Huge thanks Philip! Very kind.
A very informative and Mind opening Tutorial..just Loved it.
Thanks a Ton!!
Thanks a lot!
Love your videos
And I love that you're watching them,
Wow I want that light! I still struggle a lot with composing and layers in photoshop. Total PS-beginner.
No problem, just watch the next video when I put the images together in Photoshop, not hard at all. 😃
@@botvidsson I will! Can't wait 😊👍
I Have Sony Nex 5r with one led light Upgrading Soon to strobe Light
Great, I think strobes are the best, so powerful.
Botvidsson, I love your video!!! you are amazing! You have good equipment, why do you need photoshop... why don't you do all one frame?
Thanks. Well, if you watch the video you will see that this composite shot are for people who starting out with photography.
You’re the pro, bro👍🏻
Thanks bro! Skål!
You are the best!
Thanks a lot David!
Love your tutorials. Can you do a tutorial taking a product photo of a glossy ceramic vase. I cannot figure out the soft box placement so that I don’t see nasty light reflection on the vase. I have not tried illuminate it from the bottom yet.
Yes, those objects can be very tricky. Probably I would place the flash on an angle from the top. It’s hard for me to get hold of specific objects, you need to come and bring and I’ll show you how I would do. But you might not live around the corner...
@@botvidsson would love to come there but can't at the present moment; maybe in the future, you never know. I have made this shoot my challenge, I have not succeeded and I will not give up. Thank you for your videos.
@@mohomami9684 Can you post a pic of the vase you're referring to?
Antonio de l'Enclos see the picture on Flickr: flic.kr/p/2hujt83, thanks
Try bouncing the soft box light off of a large white surface such as a white wall or card that is not close to the base. Try 8 or 10 feet away to start.
Or suspend a diffusion material several feet away from the vase then fully illuminate the back side of the diffuser with your light. A useful (and cheap) diffusion material such as a white plastic shower curtain or table cover can be found at dollar stores.
I couldnt find that app from play store
Sorry about that, but there are probably better once that's free :)
Most of the time I like your videos but I really hated this one. We don't have enough so called, "professional" photographers walking around with digitals screwing up the profession? Now you're going to tell everyone with a phone they can be a professional too? Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!
The title clearly states how to "become" a professional. Are all professionals not amateurs at some point? To become something means to change from something else. He is giving the pure beginner an option versus going out and maxing out a credit card buying $20, 000 worth of gear. They can start with the phone to learn composition and lighting, then as they make a little money doing small shoots they can upgrade gear on the path to "become" a professional.
@@DESIGNS-vo1mt This reply is like I wrote it. Thanks!
I never answer people that clearly either did not watch the video, or by purpose misunderstanding the concept of the video.
Huge thanks again.
