And if your size is sold out, sign up for email updates so we can let you know when we've restocked! xoxo, saf
called it a bitch but felt immediately too aggressive- thats my expirence always w decent guys saying bitch squirrel or non squirrel theyre like 95% ok w it
The heart thing works, but it does have some rules to make it work. Firstly your lens matters. A prime lens is needed (I've never managed to get it to work on any zoom lens, not even slightly). 35mm on a crop frame or 50mm on a full frame camera. You want a good low Aperture lens too. F1.8 works, F1.4/1.2 is way better, but also very expensive. My 35mm f1.8 was near enough £200 at the time and considered a 'budget' option. The actual heart shaoe has to be super small. those silly funky hole punch things for kids work well enough, but it's a little trial an error to figure out the size you need to not get that effect with just sticking a frame round the shot. Lastly is actually getting the bokeh effect. To get the best bokeh takes a lot of fiddling, but for the purpose of this just wack the camera into aperture priority mode. (A on nikon and I think its AV on canon, no idea with sony). set the only changeable setting, which will be your f-stop, to the lowest possible number. That will be your 1.8/1.4/1.2 depending on your lens. Let the camera figure out the rest of the required settings to get a shot with that specific f-stop in place. Still easier to just buy a lens bokeh shape changer thing for your specific lens, than to make one. Ebay has them for like £1
It DOES work. I've had photographers take photos where a string of lights in front of us were turned into stars. I have a pic of the photog showing us the image and you can see the star cutout duct-taped to his lens. You just have to know how to achieve bokeh first.
Hi Safiya! For the Bokeh thing - you need a lens that creates a shallower depth of field, meaning you need a lens with a very open aperture. You used a 100mm f/2.8L (if I'm correct) and a 55-250 f/4.0-5.0, which is too closed for this effect. Try it with a 50mm f/1.8 and also use it at f/1.8 and it should work better. Also you don't need to separate Tyler that far from the background when you use a 50mm lens. Just thought I'd drop that in :)
Stephanie Chenoweth You could, but you need to be really far away. Bokeh always looks different and kicks in differently on every lens depending on its focal length and aperture.
That's kind of the point as well. These "hacks" aren't really hacks in the typical idea of them. They're just knowing how to use a camera and editing software to make it look better, which isn't a "hack". The odds are extremely likely that if you already know about photography then you know about the bokeh effect. That being said, Bokeh is mostly determined by the aperture. You can achieve it with f/2.8, but it's far more ideal to use f/1.8 or f/1.4. The faster the lens, the better to get that blur. To get the effect she wanted, she should have been using f/1.8 and had Tyler standing at a decent distance from the lights. You'd want to have the focus set on Tyler far from the background that you want the bokeh. The distance from the background will determine how big the blur is.
This video broke the fourth wall and shattered my blissful ignorant illusion of you and Tyler just workin together and making home-made videos as a rough and tumble duo.
I have hella respect for your approach to "merch". personally, I prefer to be "repping" discreetly, this is a nice way to do it. Also, I adore the style.
Jerry Maestas, she said it probably works: however, most people are not “photographers” or don’t have much photography knowledge, she is saying the hack lacked instructions... if the instructions stated to use a different lens, it would have a different outcome and it would’ve worked out for her.
Yeah, I've 100% done this both with hand-made lens masks, and with ones I bought pre-made online. It's extremely simple, but you do need to know a few things: I do it using a 50 mm lens with the aperture wide open (smallest f number your lens will allow). When shooting this way, I set my camera to Aperture Priority (this allows me to choose the f stop, and the camera will adjust the shutter speed to compensate). Regardless, you can test first without the mask--if your photos are getting nice round bokeh blurs in the background details, you're ready to add the mask.
Yeah. Normally when you walk backwards, especially near other people, you tend to hesitate in a way you don't normally when walking forwards. It means when you play the footage backwards, it shows the person walking forwards with a hesitation in each stride you don't normally see, which makes it look stiff and more robot like.
Bokeh is pronounced “BO-KUH” and as a photographer I can say it definitely works but you usually need an aperture of about 1.2-2.0 and make the heart cut out a lot smaller than you had it! You should try it again bc it’s actually pretty rad once you figure it oit
Ok listen up y’all bokeh seems to be some sacred art form thaT NOBODIES WANTS TO SHARE THE SECRETS TO! So, lemme be the one to spill the soup. First of all, you need the right lense for it! I use a 50mm with an (aperture?) of f/1.8. This makes the background blurry while keeping the subject nice and crisp! Secondly, play around with the size of the shape! It took me a while to figure out to not make it too big nor too small. Hope this helps whoever stumbles upon this comment :)
+ Valeria Vagapova It IS such an old trick that I'm surprised more people haven't heard of it! I remember doing this all the time when I first got my DSLR, when taking artsy tumbr photos were the in thing haha
Yeah because that's how they make it seem. Like the time when when Safiya got her tattoo and said the bats symbolise her and Tyler editing her videos until late in the night
For the heart bokeh to work you need a much smaller cut out (like 1cm) and to set your camera on its lowest aperture setting! I use this technique all the time and it creates such cute pictures. Such a shame you didn't get the results you wanted :(
I want to see u plan an entire event from wish. Outfits, decor, everything! Or decorate a room! I see decor on wish all the time! Hope u use my suggestions!!!!!
Ok so like idek if you being sarcasticc or shit buuuuttt..... LeTs ExPlAiN kIdS! So when the rock drops into the water, make sure that your hand isnt in frame, so that all you do is cut out the segment of it falling and ending that cut segment just before the water splashes....yaarr
suga how you get so fly the original comment was about thanking saf for not putting her names in a giant text and i agree with them. I personally hate that, like for example, a tee with no design but the merch owner’s name like ASHLEY, you know? Cause that’s not cool, not creative, and just monetize their name. It’s understandable and maybe some hardcore fans would love to have merch like that but once again, not my cup of tea:)
There aren't any squirrels there? Omg I didn't know that! They live on my house. Like alot of them. Sometimes you can rescue a baby that falls out a tree. Or like the boys will bark at you to let you know that is their tree lol. There's like tree squirrels and ground squirrels. I live in Florida so we only have tree squirrels here. There's a RUclips series about squirrels you might like
Haha there was one season where all of the squirrels were fat becuase ov some weather thing or something. It was cute but scary. You can look it up. Like they were so fat, they were multiple news stories on
Well I’m definitely months late to this video, but for what it’s worth I taught myself how to do the heart shaped bokeh for a photography class project. It can be done...with very controlled lighting and the right lens! I had used a 50mm prime lens with a 1.8 aperture, the lights in the background need to be fairly far away and the subject will usually need it’s own source of light. Certainly not as easy as the hacks make it out to be, but I hope you give it another shot one of these days!
The heart bokeh works, you just need the proper settings and a LOT of space between the lights and subject and the subject and the camera. As well as the proper settings of course. It’s kinda confusing though lol I hate doing bokeh even if it is pretty.
I have a 50mm non zoom lense. If I put that lense on 1.2 to 2.4 ish and focus on the person an arm length in front of me the background gets blurry/bokeh. if that person is too dark I change the iso into a lower number. If that is not enough use a sready surface and let the lense be open for a longer time. OR just use s reflector like matte foil on cardboard to highlight the persons face if the light is in the background. or use professional lighting to highlight the face area *Et voilà.*
Yeah I think her lens is too wide- it needs to be a really narrow focus lens for closeups. I think. And the subject in front needs to be properly lit :D It's the lights in the background that will blur into bokeh :D
Hi Safiya! I know you probably won’t see this but I just wanna tell you your videos have helped me get through a lot of stuff, whenever I am at my worst point I go to my bed and watch your videos and I feel good again. Even though you never met me you feel like my extended family since I watch your videos so much. Your videos have helped me get through years off bullying and loss of loved ones. Your videos (especially the soap and travel ones) are so entertaining amd calming to watch. So best wishes to you and Tyler
I am so impressed by Saf and her merch/clothing line. It’s awesome that she’s taking quality and wearability into consideration when she’s selling! It’s much better for the environment and for our wallets! I love Saf and think she’s absolutely hilarious and fun, but this has made me like her even more!
The Bokeh hack is actually right, is just that you need to have at least a bit of photography knowledge, because the bokeh effect appears only on out of focus lights when you use, as someone stated, a wide aperture. To explain it "simply", when you got a "traditional" photo, you still got the bokeh effect on out of focus lights in the distance: that is given by the shape of the diaphgram (or iris, i dunno how you call it in english) inside the lens; for example if you use a cheap lens, like the 50mm f1.8 canon lens, the diaphgram is made with some plastic stuff that is shaped like an octagon -> you'll notice octagon lights in the out of focus area. If you place a shape in front of the lens, on out of focus lights you'll see the shape that you draw! A photographer i know, at a degree cerimony of a friend used DICK (you read that right) shaped bokeh to shot all her photo (in my region in Italy is common to play jokes on just graduated college students).
Good video! Tips on the bokeh thing: go further from the light. It will maximize the bokeh effect AND help them shaped like the 'frame' you placed in front of you. Using zoom lens works well, you put in on max zoom. So you're far from the lights, and the main object is closer to you than the lights.
@@JennzOrs in my experience, for the stair one after the camera slid to the wall part (the 'transition' part), the camera should be brough closer to the wall it became so dark they can rotate it 'smoothly' and they can use the darkened part to smoothen the jumpcut. Sorry, can't explain well, my brain is fried this morning and english isn't my first language.
The walking backwards one might've looked better in flat shoes. The movement of weight in the high, chunky heels is distracting. I am impressed with the cup thing, though! When you started with the paper heart on the lens hack, before you pointed out the change in the bokeh lights, I thought you *were* going to be going for the faded out border. Covering part of the lens like that is how photographers used to do the multiple angles in one shot photos (think grad pics). Cover a portion of the lens, shoot, cover the opposite portion, re-shoot double exposure.
I also lived in New York and I disagree lol ! In NYC the streets are very large so idk it depends which streets you're talking about but try walking backwards in Amsterdam 😂😂😂!!
you have to have your camera on " f/1.8 " it's how much light that is let into the lens. And the other settings are how much longer the camera takes to actually take the picture. and the magic to explain it easier is that as lower that number is, as more unfocused it becomes and it gives you this very nice depth in the picture. try that! if you ever see this comment. lol hope it made sense it also worth buying a 50mm for your camera at f/1.8 (recommended) or f/1.4. it's really handy for portraits!
My 85mm is perfect for real detailed portraiture but also allows that wonderful bokeh if you're using certain lights or backgrounds, love my 50mm for it too!

I say it now too when I am by myself.
ALRIGHT!
Make that merch
Imagine going to a photo shoot, and the photographer pulls out a big Mac box for lighting.
lmaoo right
I'd only be disappointed if it didn't actually have a big mac in it for me to eat first.
and then starts swinging his camera around with a belt
Hi Safiya!

K Sch could you kind of cheat it out with the 100 mm at 2.8 far away from the Xmas lights?
Stephanie Chenoweth You could, but you need to be really far away. Bokeh always looks different and kicks in differently on every lens depending on its focal length and aperture.

Was gonna comment this yeah. But yeah this is how you achieved the bokeh affect mostly
Being a photographer, I knew it's working. But yes, this is definitely more of a "hack" for people with basic knowledge of photography.
Tyler calling the squirrel a "little b***h* is a mood 😂

As a photographer, watching you do the heart bokeh hack was so funny. It 100% works you just have to be using the right lens!

not to be this person but, why did you put the word photographer in quotation marks?
Which lens do you have to use

The only thing is that the hole has to be pretty small, the aperture pretty open like f1.8 or so and then it’s working
im disappointed saf. how can u drop a clothing line and not have ONE item with bat sleeves?
I was really expecting her to hold up a bat sleeved t-shirt for a second. haha
My thoughts exactly!
Okay seriously!!! I want bat sleeves everything
😂
That would be cool but custom merch companies won't produce that type of shirt
I'm crying when she's walking around the people in Hollywood because she looks like a robot trying to learn about how humans live. 😂

Vasilikis Beauty Tips it does work! You just need a tinier heart! Done it so many times before
Teensy heart, big f-stop (1.4 or 1.7 or something), zoom in if you have a zoom lens.
It does work, she just made the heart way too big
It does work she just used the wrong aperture setting
It works, the heart is too big I think. I did it 8-9 years ago, but can’t remember a lot from those days

Kiarnii Miller One in my attic was not cute at all. My poor installation. Else wise I slow down when I see them playing chicken. 🤣
Once a squirrel ate like half of our Christmas tree😂
Haha there was one season where all of the squirrels were fat becuase ov some weather thing or something. It was cute but scary. You can look it up. Like they were so fat, they were multiple news stories on

Well I’m definitely months late to this video, but for what it’s worth I taught myself how to do the heart shaped bokeh for a photography class project. It can be done...with very controlled lighting and the right lens! I had used a 50mm prime lens with a 1.8 aperture, the lights in the background need to be fairly far away and the subject will usually need it’s own source of light. Certainly not as easy as the hacks make it out to be, but I hope you give it another shot one of these days!

Not a single crusty merch. How is that possible!
shout out to Emily for dropping the rock lol
ya i know, it takes a lot of effort to drop a rock (btw i'm being sarcastic don't take it the wrong way)
Padma Balaji NB
It may swing
It may sway
But the real question is
*does it bokeh?*
*oOF*
Now we’re asking real questions
The rain/umbrella would better for a photo rather than video.. do it in the evening with a fun light source and BAM... fun photo... lol
Bless Safiya for not putting one single ad in her video 🙌🏼💗
Well, it kinda was an ad at the end there :P
Ammy Bindra Are you sure she didn’t put it? Maybe the video was demonetized for some dumb and unfair reason. I hope not.
She literally makes money by being a RUclipsr. How does she not put an ad on it?
Omg ur right
Thanks for the shout-out saf 🙈🙉🙊
Lol
LMAO OMG

I highly appreciate you Saf, Jenna, Babish, etc.

2020: Tell me about it.
The heart bokeh works, you just need the proper settings and a LOT of space between the lights and subject and the subject and the camera. As well as the proper settings of course. It’s kinda confusing though lol I hate doing bokeh even if it is pretty.
You don't really need a lot of space. I mean, it's really beginner level. You can even get it with a point-and-shoot if you zoom in.
@notsotypicalbeauty I was going to comment the same thing
Agreed. I did this years ago. Fun times. Pretty sure I tried to do....wiener bokeh. Um yeah
I have a 50mm non zoom lense. If I put that lense on 1.2 to 2.4 ish and focus on the person an arm length in front of me the background gets blurry/bokeh. if that person is too dark I change the iso into a lower number. If that is not enough use a sready surface and let the lense be open for a longer time. OR just use s reflector like matte foil on cardboard to highlight the persons face if the light is in the background. or use professional lighting to highlight the face area *Et voilà.*
Yeah I think her lens is too wide- it needs to be a really narrow focus lens for closeups. I think. And the subject in front needs to be properly lit :D It's the lights in the background that will blur into bokeh :D

Hi Safiya! I know you probably won’t see this but I just wanna tell you your videos have helped me get through a lot of stuff, whenever I am at my worst point I go to my bed and watch your videos and I feel good again. Even though you never met me you feel like my extended family since I watch your videos so much. Your videos have helped me get through years off bullying and loss of loved ones. Your videos (especially the soap and travel ones) are so entertaining amd calming to watch. So best wishes to you and Tyler
Anyone else say “hello friends & welcome to another video” with her 😂
For some reason I always think "Hello friends & welcome to bible study", which I have no idea whatsoever where I got that from

she walking NORMAL tho
NORMAL 100%
best part of the video hands down
she looks like an alien who in her head is screaming “BE NORMAL BE NORMAL”

I am so impressed by Saf and her merch/clothing line. It’s awesome that she’s taking quality and wearability into consideration when she’s selling! It’s much better for the environment and for our wallets! I love Saf and think she’s absolutely hilarious and fun, but this has made me like her even more!

The Bokeh hack is actually right, is just that you need to have at least a bit of photography knowledge, because the bokeh effect appears only on out of focus lights when you use, as someone stated, a wide aperture. To explain it "simply", when you got a "traditional" photo, you still got the bokeh effect on out of focus lights in the distance: that is given by the shape of the diaphgram (or iris, i dunno how you call it in english) inside the lens; for example if you use a cheap lens, like the 50mm f1.8 canon lens, the diaphgram is made with some plastic stuff that is shaped like an octagon -> you'll notice octagon lights in the out of focus area. If you place a shape in front of the lens, on out of focus lights you'll see the shape that you draw! A photographer i know, at a degree cerimony of a friend used DICK (you read that right) shaped bokeh to shot all her photo (in my region in Italy is common to play jokes on just graduated college students).
lmao at the dick shaped bokeh effect. had to google it and it's real.
That's amazing, thanks for explaining. Also, the little prank you said some people do on college graduates is so funny!
Yesss I was just creepin on your channel earlier today wondering when the next upload was coming

Good video! Tips on the bokeh thing: go further from the light. It will maximize the bokeh effect AND help them shaped like the 'frame' you placed in front of you. Using zoom lens works well, you put in on max zoom. So you're far from the lights, and the main object is closer to you than the lights.
Chocofat Carrot and d
also using a lens with a lower aperture will be better like a 50mm 1.2!!
@@ChloeGeorghiou yes! Lower aperture, max focal length (for zoom), main object closer to camera than light (but not too close), higher shutter speed.
I felt like every single hack they were trying to do, the camera wasn't far enough back. Especially with the stairs and cup hacks.
@@JennzOrs in my experience, for the stair one after the camera slid to the wall part (the 'transition' part), the camera should be brough closer to the wall it became so dark they can rotate it 'smoothly' and they can use the darkened part to smoothen the jumpcut. Sorry, can't explain well, my brain is fried this morning and english isn't my first language.
The walking backwards one might've looked better in flat shoes. The movement of weight in the high, chunky heels is distracting. I am impressed with the cup thing, though! When you started with the paper heart on the lens hack, before you pointed out the change in the bokeh lights, I thought you *were* going to be going for the faded out border. Covering part of the lens like that is how photographers used to do the multiple angles in one shot photos (think grad pics). Cover a portion of the lens, shoot, cover the opposite portion, re-shoot double exposure.
😶. Ur smart........ 😂
Jenna Gets Creative hi
Or use a heart filter app.
You need a different lens for the bokeh 😊 Try a prime lens, it works better 😊
I live in New York and if I ever tried the walking backwards one I’d not only get barreled into on the street but murdered on the street
Chloe C LMAOO me toooo
that's a true fact
Same
I also lived in New York and I disagree lol ! In NYC the streets are very large so idk it depends which streets you're talking about but try walking backwards in Amsterdam 😂😂😂!!
Mugs, Saf. Your merch shop needs mugs.

Safiya you are honestly the most entertaining creator in my opinion, i love your videos, personality and channel 🖤🖤
Oh, Troom Troom... "We are all out here playing checkers and Troom Troom is playing Jenga."
you have to have your camera on " f/1.8 " it's how much light that is let into the lens. And the other settings are how much longer the camera takes to actually take the picture. and the magic to explain it easier is that as lower that number is, as more unfocused it becomes and it gives you this very nice depth in the picture. try that! if you ever see this comment. lol hope it made sense
it also worth buying a 50mm for your camera at f/1.8 (recommended) or f/1.4. it's really handy for portraits!
My 85mm is perfect for real detailed portraiture but also allows that wonderful bokeh if you're using certain lights or backgrounds, love my 50mm for it too!
Why does this sound so complicated. She did this video as a joke, let it be ;-;
Because its a legit photographic skill @@SoyboySkylark
