Hey Stephen - glad you enjoyed the video. For backlighting where we illuminate the glass and not the set, we're using a Fresnel that can give a narrow, focused beam of light (kind of like a sport light). We position it behind the glass and at a lower level than the surface/table itself angled a little up. If there's any spill on the objects or you cant get the light low enough, we then block it using the barn doors on the light and/or some large pieces of polyboard/foamcore or a floppy. It takes a bit of adjustment but you should be able to get it to where it's only illuminating the subject. Hope this helps & thanks for watching!
This video alone taught me more about lighting and placements more than anything else I watched! Extremely informational but easy to digest. Thank you!
The best guidelines and the most detailed tutorial that i ever seen, this really help me as a newbie in this photography world, thousand thumbs and thanks for you bro !
Thanks so much Syrp Lab! I always come away from your videos and looking at your products inspired to be more creative and think differently. Keep up the awesome work.
awesome video! the volume levels between the main speaking part and the diagram segments was quite distinct, so it may pay to do an additional leveling pass, but it didn't distract too much from the content and you did a great job of describing the elements of the shot and how the different lighting influenced the look and feel, and how the props added to the shot.
Glad you enjoyed it! We didn't have too much trouble with clouding on this one as we remade the drink right before we got the final take so it was still nice and fresh. Let us know if you find any hacks for this though :)
The photos are very nicely done. However, you were talking way to fast for me. I am new to photography and got utterly lost. Again very, very nice photos.

Wonderful results but I don’t understand how you are using the backlight to only affect the drink and not spill onto the set?

information, shots, delivery, demos, all great! Thank you. Subscribed.
Love how you implemented the picture with the layout to show what exactly the light does. Well Done!
Thanks Eric!

Thanks J McG - good catch! Will make sure we do that for future episodes. Thanks for watching :)
Feels like a masterclass!
Fantastic quick tutorials. Thanks for being detailed.
Glad you enjoyed it Carlos!
Love this
Amazing video, one question - how did you prevent condensation from clouding up the outer glass?
Glad you enjoyed it! We didn't have too much trouble with clouding on this one as we remade the drink right before we got the final take so it was still nice and fresh. Let us know if you find any hacks for this though :)
Inverse law was my golden nugent. Thank you
This is fantastic!
This was amazing. Thank you so much!
Any advice and suggestions on spotlights can mimic a warm afternoon sunlight ?
crisp and clear
this was epic dude!
Man! Great video! Thanks so much for you generous work.
Thanks Sigurvin! Glad you found it useful :D
Hi, how can I achieve the first light set up with only one light? I want the drink to be seen clearly and would also like the shadows. Thanks
bro I'm not gonna lie I shot an ad for my mobile bar company yesterday and it looks like buns compared to your shots and I now see why lmfao.
Dude! If you really want to see good product photography, go watch Karl Taylor. These suck!
Very good video and thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it Don!

What camera do you use to film these?
🥰🥰

The photos are very nicely done. However, you were talking way to fast for me. I am new to photography and got utterly lost. Again very, very nice photos.
I also need to play back at 0.75x speed from the setting to really absorb the details and have time to think

Why TF is the camera so shaky when he's talking? Was the shake added in post?
great video! love it! but pleeeeeeease stop bouncing your camera! it is so dizzily annoying.
Someone hasn't heard of high quality prop ice.
Have definitely tried a couple but never found one we loved. Got a recommendation? Always keen to try something new :)
