Love seeing your process of breaking each light into a single aspect. I don't do much studio work, and I never would have thought of that. Thanks for sharing with us.
I am TableTop leader at the Richmond and Twickenham Photographic Society, and now, after Covid-19, we are starting to get back to action, but more project led than members doing their own thing. It's a very well explained tutorial, and thanks for your inspiration. I have quadra lights but also access to other fixed cable elichrome light too.
I found your video very helpful. And your teaching clear an easy to follow. Thank you so much. I've subscribed to the channel, will be checking out your other videos and look forward to seeing your next one. I'm new to both still life photography and lighting. I've bought some lighting gear and am now working hard at learning how to create interesting images.
Have a look at this video ruclips.net/video/zEyzaY3h6H4/видео.html I will show you how to get creative with stuff you will find in your kitchen. I’ll demonstrate how to paint with light using nothing more than a small torch and how to use an old plastic bag as an effective light modifier. All within the confines of the kitchen.
Hi , just discovered your channel and it is great and very informative and helpful. Would you be able to share where do you get the gel sheets from and what coe is that blue sheet you have used in this video ? Many thanks.
Dear Sir, Thank you very much for your impressive demo! I learned a lot in the build-up process. Just a quick question: why don't use a light meter to minimize the number of tests? Thank you, again!
hello!!!! really loved your vedio!!! can you please share the the values that you used? i would love and use it for myself. thank you for good content!!
The values I used will be largely irrelevant to anyone else because flash energy, for example, will be dependent on the exact placement of the light and efficiency of modifier. To reproduce my result just build up the image one light at a time the same way I did. If you don't tether the camera then you can get a fair idea by looking at the back of the camera.
Hi there. Great video. Are there cheaper alternative's to the Pro Foto b1x that I can buy which do the same? I'm using soft boxes at the moment with 135w bulbs, and a single camera flash. I am though interested in this light as it really does produce some nice effects. :)
The house lights are daylight balanced LED. Like most domestic and commercial lighting, they are not designed for photographic use, therefore exhibit a colour cast. It is very difficult to take this out of the final image.
I’ve been a street photographer for years. Outside, natural light, small camera, take a shot of things that excite my eye and done. Lighting seems daunting to me, and another world, but I want to get into still life. It’s a whole other animal. Now what about clam shelling? Etc
Great video!! I tend to be inspired by what you do. However, on a personal note and just because I like to ask this type of question. What is your back ground? A LOT OF "nit-not" info isn't necessary, nor really personal info. Just the basics please.
What am I losing out on if I buy a cheap ($100) lights instead of the more ($500) and most expensive ($1200) flash units? Thanks for uploading! I'm inspired and educated by your content. You should consider posting the gear you use through the amazon affiliate program.
@@CameraClubLive thank you so so much. I think I'll start cheap (maybe a speed light and a remote) and when I begin to notice its failures, I'll upgrade. I'm very ready to begin experimenting with flash thanks to your videos!

Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for your impressive demo! I learned a lot in the build-up process.
Just a quick question: why don't use a light meter to minimize the number of tests?
Thank you, again!
Using a tethered camera into a calibrated monitor gives a far more accurate result than is possible with a light meter.
Thank you!
this was really great! thanks
You're so welcome!

Hi there. Great video. Are there cheaper alternative's to the Pro Foto b1x that I can buy which do the same? I'm using soft boxes at the moment with 135w bulbs, and a single camera flash. I am though interested in this light as it really does produce some nice effects. :)
You could try this The PIXAPRO CITI300 PRO it's about £420

What kind of room lighting do you have. How you does this effect the subject. Thank you.
The house lights are daylight balanced LED. Like most domestic and commercial lighting, they are not designed for photographic use, therefore exhibit a colour cast. It is very difficult to take this out of the final image.
The first rule of photographing eggs is to be sure to use a hard-boiled egg. Great video. Thanks.
Yes! Thank you!
I’ve been a street photographer for years. Outside, natural light, small camera, take a shot of things that excite my eye and done.
Lighting seems daunting to me, and another world, but I want to get into still life. It’s a whole other animal.
Now what about clam shelling? Etc
There is more to it than clam shelling, have a look through the rest of my videos to make studio lighting less daunting.
@@CameraClubLive great thanks
what software do you use for tethering?
Capture One
Could you please advise me on where i can get the gel sheets from? Thank you
Wex Photo Video stock Lee gels and do a Rosco kit, link below

My background is in technology. I find photography is a perfect mix of technology, physics and art. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for uploading! I'm inspired and educated by your content.

The main thing your losing out on is consistency, but also stable colour temperature and short flash duration.
@@CameraClubLive thank you so so much. I think I'll start cheap (maybe a speed light and a remote) and when I begin to notice its failures, I'll upgrade. I'm very ready to begin experimenting with flash thanks to your videos!
This is very useful, though I was creeped out by that girl in the background staring lifelessly at me.
Glad you liked it
I would give you two thumbs up, so I'll throw in a comment instead. And a 🥚👌
Thank you very much thanks for watching.
First thing I would have done is got my light meter out🤭set my lights to the right power, then tweaked.
Don't use or need a light meter as I use a tethered camera and a calibrated monitor.
Thank you
You're welcome
