We need more filmmakers making filmmaking videos like this and no more B-Roll youtubers. Great stuff Lewis looking forward to the next video
This video has a lot of b-roll. I’m interested in understanding what you mean. Can you explain?
@@NickWeaver Sure thing. Majority of RUclipsrs claim they are filmmakers when their entire portfolio is nothing more than B-Roll footage with widescreen bars and some music slapped on. That’s it. That ALL they have to show. No short films, no commercial work. Nothing. Those people are not filmmakers. Lewis on the other hand is a filmmaker, check out his portfolio of work he has done. Yes, this video has B-Roll in it but that’s not the point of my comment. Lewis has many video showing tutorials on lighting on the work he has done. He shows actual lighting techniques on the paid work he has done as a filmmaker. That’s what I mean by we need more filmmakers making videos and no more B-Roll RUclipsrs who have no credentials of any actual “work”
@@FlipsMedia Interesting. You're saying you like to see actual commercial work before you acknowledge someone as a filmmaker. I would consider anyone a filmmaker who makes any form of film, but I do like to see true understanding of the craft, especially in situations where people are offering advice and calling it professional, lol.
@@NickWeaver Yes and no. Type in on RUclips “ Cinematic B-Roll” and watch those videos. Those are the videos I am talking about. No story, no feeling, literally just random B-Roll footage with widescreen bars and music. If someone’s portfolio is literally just those videos, they are not a filmmaker. If someone has a “Cinematic B-Roll” video but also has lets say short films, something with actual story to it. Then yes I would consider them a filmmaker. They don’t even have to necessarily get paid for the short films, it could just be passion projects. The problem I am saying is when it’s ONLY “Cinematic B-Roll” is their portfolio. That’s my point
@@FlipsMedia Those people tend to make more money based off clicks than they do actually working a film/commercial. It's sad, really.
“Couple quick tests” looking amazing
Haha yeah they are quick shots if your doing it with a crew, but on your own it does take a while!
@@lewispotts You're just talented af mate that's all ;). Loved the piece
Ei hey Brady ..if you are following him it means it's good at what he's doing.. I'm subscribing
One of my favourite people commenting on a video for one of my favourite people. Hi
Apprecite tests/reviews like this far more than any 'technical' reviews. Thanks for sharing Lewis!
bro you have the most inspiring channel & content i've ever seen.. really appreciate the way you share your techniques & experiences.. makes me really want to get out there and trust and push myself
Thanks David!
@@lewispotts Hi Lews, it would be cool, if you could share The Kelvin of the 1200d as a Sunlight and the cooler Kelvin of the toplight at the bed. Share it in your future videos also!
As a gaffer I appreciate your lighting instinct and creativity. So tired of seeing b-roll youtubers just throw a lightdome on and call that a review.
About the Fresnel, 'Meet the gaffer' did a test on it. 1200D with the most narrow reflector on is brighter than 1200D with the F10 Fresnel on.
Lew is top notch, this style (which I can’t name or put my finger on) is so right. Perhaps a lot of the style and feel comes down to the grade but overall there’s just something more special about even just Lew’s talking head image. Natural but grand with a half percent of uncanny.
Wish I could figure it out.
Chiaroscuro?
Lewis we need a new Squarespace ad ;) Great video as always
This footage looks so great!
So much power! Really love their lights. Beautiful work mate!
Thanks so much for sharing this light. Love the channel. Beautiful work!
Another low key classic. Thanks Lewis!
That things insane!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Love your demonstration of 1200d, thank you.
wild wild wild. thank you so much!
Congratulations, now they're coming to you! Keep it up Lewis, love these BTS setups.
this video alone just earned you a subscriber. excited to see the result of the commercial!
Talented. That’s what you have brother. Beautiful work in just a sample. Thank you!
Lewis... Man... You're a goat and such an inspiration. Your tests are literal big budget film quality. Much love from East Tennessee🙏🏼
Great work!
Love this setting,
Lewis your the man! I always love your video's!!!
Really nice grade and great light positioning.
Beautiful work!
Great video once again Lewis, I can always count on you to make my filmmaking better
The shots and that light looks fvcking amazing! 😩
Just like Wandering DP, I see Lewis Potts I click
Your cinematography looks amazing! Thanks for showing what this beast of a light is capable of.
Thanks Lewis. Man your footage is always top notch.
your videos have helped me more than anything, your explanations and break downs are so refreshing, thank you!
Learned quite a lot! Thank you for this video.
Honestly, I love your channel! Your content is so unique and it has so much value, I've learned so much from you, thanks a lot!
I love this quick tests! Look amazing as always!
This is more interesting than just numbers! The type of review that I'd Love!
What a nice and really inspiring review+showcase of the work you're able to do with this. You're really great at what your're doing.
Love the videos!!
I can just watch this stuff for your voice, the music and the overall vibe. haha
Another solid and to the point video! 👏
Thank you for this! I find your videos very inspirational.
Just moved to my new place and I can’t wait to be producing your level of content. You, Brady Bessette and Kevin Reyes are literally building my career!
Can you try using it to create multiple light sources using mirrors and bounces and stuff? Lol I hope this question makes sense😅
You should follow Rob Ellis, Wandering DP and Epic Light Media as well. Top content
@@Visethelegend already following them. Actually forgot to mention Rob Ellis. There's more honourable mentions but these 4 are genuinely helping me carve my own creative or style of filming.
Well done!
Really enjoying your lighting videos. Learned so much. Please do keep them up. Love from Los Angeles!
Best cinematography channel on youtube. I Appreciate you sharing your knowledge
Good shit homie! I'm really enjoying your stuff.
Damn man. Amazing creativity and technique. Thanks for posting this.
You are the best!)
freakin great video bro! keep it up! you're always providing so much value with these!
Bouncing off a parabolic softbox in daylights pretty crazy 🙌🏽🔥
I much enjoyed this video.
I've got a project coming up where I'm going to have to light a pretty large space, so I'm considering just bouncing as much light as I can into the ceiling and then using neg and bounce to add shape. I bet the 1200D would be pretty good at that!
That’s awesome I use that same 7 foot umbrella to do the same exact thing!!!!
you make lighting so easy! :)
That was so funny. At 4:27 I audibly said to myself, "..it's waterproof" and then you immediately responded hahaha
Dont have to worry about vampires with it around at least
I'd appreciate to see a video talking about different light modifiers, from the ones that are normally use in the cinema industry and other unconventional ways (like the umbrella, for example). Thanks so much for your high quality content
u r so good!!
Thank you so much! I can learn cinamatography from your videos!
Dang dude. This is nuts. Great video
Wow its super cool
Great Video! I think you used it perfectly!
yes.. love it in contrast to speedy harsh, and yalling b-rolls of many youtubers these days.. - this is just so calm (also sound background),smooth, stable and so well lit ! amasing you did these scenes in your room and backyard! Lights makes a difference. quite a dramatic difference. also so smooth filming is great.
great job, Lewis.
Thank you 🥂💯
briliant
Amazing shots, appreciate these a lot more than "just talking about specs" kinda videos
Man you're really good at what you do.
I have that same impact umbrella. its great when it rains.
Lolo yeah its great
I'm glad I found your channel from Epic Light Media back then. I haven't watched this video yet but I'm so excited to jump in. 250k subs is in your future. Guaranteed 🙌🏽🙌🏽
gotta love the thumbnail! nice review sir. you deserve my subs!
really great advice
Great episode.The first shot could be done with three 600d. But it would been interesting to se the difference with a 600 as the sun in comparison. Or perhaps a 600 with a spotlight mount.
I was just going to say how great it would be to see the 1200 vs the 600!
I agree, for the direct sun and even as the bounce just to see this look can be obtained with smaller lights or then, how would it look.
I love your videos man lol. I don’t even own alot of lights. But I always find a way of apply what I learn from you on a smaller scale
Great content as always bro, really appreciate you taking time to make these videos, learned so much from you in past year.
It would be nice if you can do some episodes about the equipment, like what softboxes do you use, where to find those diffusion materials (clothes), floppies etc.
Greetings from Bosnia and one love man
Whoa, pretty amazing shots! Subscribed!
I'd love to see it keying someone who is backlit by the actual sun. Love your content!
vibeeeesss. love the style of this review. subed
this is rad
Great video! Also, please do talk about parabolic reflector umbrellas in a future video! I'm curious to see a cinematographer review them and but them through some practical tests.
Great video ! If I may add a suggestion, I would have loved to see with lights on and off
great!
Great video! Also --- Subscribed!
Damn I was gonna hold off on this one, but you might have just sold me
really like the way you keep things simple and natural without trying to be cool guy on youtube like some people haha. thanks!
Aputure really comes out of no where with all these releases lol
Dope
Lewis, I found your channel because Epic Light Media sent me here. I find your content very calming, informative, and healthy for the soul. I don't know if that's what you're after. Whatever it is, I hope you get it and more. Cheers from VA, USA.
So 🔥🔥🔥
Hard and soft light through the window is my new religion.
Best cinematography channel on RUclips..seriously can't get enough. I was actually curious how you setup your talking heads for RUclips, lol. What lights / diffusion?
I know it's on purpose, but do you realize how cool you are? Like... you're thinking out of the box and it looks fabulous. Love the shots you got and the thought behind them.
Another great little demonstration. I'm curious, how long did you have the spotlight attachment on the 600D pro and at what %brightness was the 600D pro?
So good! Always appreciate your work and willingness to teach us. I have a question that I hope you can answer. At the 3:55 mark in your video, you show a wide shot of the room. I'm curious if that's how bright the room actually was when you filmed the scene of her on the bed and on the floor, or if it's closer to the levels we see in the final shots. The BTS levels always seem so much brighter than the final, and I just assume they stop down with NDs in the camera to correct the exposure or are graded later to get the same results. Hope that all makes sense! Thanks again!
So interesting! Even your talking heads looks great. Mind sharing what you shoot with for those and whether you color them in davinci or premiere?
I would love to see that 1200 underwater
I took today off from work to watch this.
Some beautiful shots and a great review. Keep em coming Lewis!
Thanks!
Thanks Lewis for these Bad ass videos! Always tons of Info and inspiration in them . What is the hand held mic your using ?
My question is: how can you not like a Lewis video...
Thanks Lewis always excited to see a new upload from you. The panel light you used to key your closeup with the talent sitting on the floor, is that still your old falcon eyes or did you end up purchasing a new one?
I used the 1200D last year in a booklight setup just off a big white wall and then through a 1/4 8x8. Gave me beautiful soft light all day, loved it.
Just the old shitty one still
Do a video on shaping spotlights for bouncing key light sources in a variety of tight spaces.
Would be cool to do a test outside as soft side key with sun in the back of the subject to see if it can actually compensate the exposure
Yeah good idea
