Hey everybody! So I went for a more casual “live” style of video, let me know in the comments if you like this better, or more so my typical style! Love y’all!
HERE. FOR. IT. An evening spent messing around with light stands on couches and foam-boards leaned up against stands is RUclips filmmaking at its most relatable. Guess I'm not the only one who lies awake thinking about light diffusion.
I love how you went through the full creative process with us. From showing a setup, realizing you didn't like it, and completely redoing it. Along with explaining it all. I really feel like a learned something here.
Your vids always feel like we are working through the process together, thank you for showing the entire process and how you work through them. It helps to see this as a developing cinematographer myself. We appreciate you Brady!
That was a super fun watch! A thought I had: You maybe were bouncing the light back as your key, but you were still shooting through the muslin and into the wall. I think that's what lifted the overall room tone, and caused the shadows to be far less pronounced. I had a quick look at what Ultrabounce looks like, and there's a black side to those sheets, meaning that when you bounce your light off of them, there isn't any light passing through and lighting up whatever's on the other side of it. I wonder what this setup would look like if you would but some blacks behind the muslin. I'm guessing you'd lose a ton of level, but maybe it'd give you a more controlled key without the spill into the room?
Brady, nice job demonstrating the Deakins bounce cove technique. Your added flags created nice contrast in the scene. The reason that lighting directly through the muslin looked so different (sharper shadows) from the bounce was the smaller size of the new light source relative to the subject. You ended up with two smaller spots of light going through the muslin because of the smaller light spread when going direct. You also didn't have any light gradation between the two sources. The solution would be to bring the muslin closer to the subject and if necessary adding some extra diffusion material (250 or 216) between the light and the muslin to get more spread to create a bigger source on the muslin. I've noticed that in these situations, Deakins might use more lights to create a more smooth gradation around the cove to the fill side. The lights on the fill side would be dimmed or scrimmed as needed to get the desired roll off on the near side of the face. Also given only one choice, I would recommend starting out with bleached muslin first. The unbleached looks warm and beautiful but may cause color matching issues if combined with other daylight or tungsten sources in a scene. One can always use 1/8 or 1/4 CTO on the lamps or change the white balance of the camera if warmth is desired. I like to have both bleached and unbleached muslin available when possible.
I loved the way you showed us everything instead of here's one i prepared earlier!!! Often presenters think things are obvs and don't show us and ... it's not. Thanks.
thank you for letting us know your Kelvin #'s, if at all possible in future videos we are suckers for camera settings so as to create your wonderful lighting tutorials. thank you again Brady!!!!!! THUMBS UP and have become a new follower!
Very well done video...I'm also a fan of Rodger Deakins and love the "bounced-light" softness. You are right - it's hard to set-up (with limited space) but the results are quite noticeable. Also loved the idea that you approached the exercise as a "let's see what happens." I'm sure that it was as instructive for you as it was for us. Keep doing what you're doing. This got me to subscribe, like and ring the bell.
Watching your live reactions and issues to face and solve on the go makes me feel like I'm there and makes me want to find a way to address the obstacles by getting creative. Thanks for this Brady ;)
Awesome video! Really shows how you solved the issues and how u perfected the image to your desire! Great value honestly for a person who is starting out!
@@BradyBessette truly a great educational video i loved that u kept in the way you were thinking and made this a little more experimental and not just a straight up tutorial!
@@BradyBessette it’s better in my opinion! I am still about to get into the world of filmmaking but i have been learning a lot through youtube. What camera do you recommend for me who is just starting out and want to shoot narrative film?
@@officialfadi I think that everyone has their needs. Sony makes a great camera that’s good for hybrid photo/video, blackmagic is more cinema-centric. All of these new cameras are great, it’s a matter of asking yourself how you can benefit most!
Great video man! Love the vlog style. I might be wrong but I think the major difference in these two setups was the space. Had you moved the diffusion closer to you and had more room to push back the lights, you might have been able to get a much softer look for the diffused setup. But a great illustration in having options and using them accordingly.
Nice work. A book light is an incredibly versatile and frequently used tool of most DPs who want to bring a large “bounced light” into small spaces in controlled ways. The Key Grip is the unsung hero of bounced light, for sure! Control is everything! Love your channel
I left a comment in one of your video's that I wanted to look inside your head when you make decisions during lighting your scene. And this format is exactly what I mean. Great job! For my work(News) I use bounced light a lot, because the reporter wants to leave 15 minutes ago, and still expecting a descent picture.Bouncing light saves me a lot of work and gives me a nice soft lightning. Making a cove for a news interview is probably a little too much😂.
I love the work ethic Brady. You are inspiring people from all over the world. I know one day I’ll get good enough to work with you. Thank you so much for this video 💯
love the fact that Lottie even said goodbye to the RUclips audience 😂 that's a great woman right there! Your video and your approach are really interesting, I'm currently setting up the exposure for my "RUclips Studio" and am doing a similar thing. ahhh its the eternal pursuit of getting the softest light
loving your content Brady!!!! Keep up the good work..I;m now moving my studio around and will be bouncing light off my wall. I'm shooting for a high key look so the more bouncing and less control the better I guess :). thank you sir....
Bro. Loved this looser video format and the fact that I felt like I was learning something while you were discovering it as well. Those wall shadows did it for me like a lightbulb moment. Massive difference. Great as always man.
I love the format of this video. I feel showing the authenticity of your journey discovering certain things is much more helpful and educational. Its almost like you and I are in the same room together both figuring things out. Great video! Yes, bounced light is less controllable, but has many benefits to it's look. Thanks for helping us all learn brother.
Regardless of your style of video you always give a honest and relaxed vibe! I've been following you from the beginning and watched literally everything so no matter the style i'll watch it because I like your work, but as a personal taste I liked this one a little better. Anyway, you should do whatever feels and works best for you!
Awesome vid buddy, just a quick question on the Muslin: How thick is it? I went to buy some and it was very translucent, you can really see through it if you hold it in front of you, similar to a bride's veil. That's of course at a fabric's shop for the much cheaper alternative but still great quality and 100% cotton. I just don´t know the standard thickness for cinematography use. It's trial and error I guess. I didn't buy that one and got unbleached Calico instead. Using that on a shoot in 2 days, we'll see how that works. Great job man, love your vids
apparently in some countries Muslin is the name of another fabric and Calico is the Muslin he talks about. At least that's what I think based on research I've done so far. I'm going to buy Calico tomorrow. I've spent half a day trying to find Muslin...
Let me add some comments for the record 😅Bouncing light allows to the light to travel longer distances in small spaces, giving you the advantage of the inverse square law. Also it allows to increase the size of the light beam giving you that creamy look ❤️. The control of the light here will also depend on the source where you are bouncing the light. Maybe you can try out some cine reflectors, a bit pricey 😅, or with some DIY reflectors 😜 Nice video, I enjoyed! Thanks a lot
@@thepropolys when you are bouncing light using for example one mirror inside of a room you can make the light travels double the distance (setting light and mirror in opposite walls) . It would be the double that just pointing the light to the subject.
@@fernandogmar I see... interesting point. The inverse square law doesn't necessarily imply softer light, though, just less light. And it's only applicable for bulbous light sources.
I am a cinematographer based on Turkey. Your videos are amazing. I am wondering something. How about If we use bounce light with muslin and add a diffussion also near the subject? I wonder the result. Loves from Turkey!
Could you experiment with the inverse square law please, bouncing the light from further/closer while maintaining the light source size with a fresnel/spotlight mount. I've always thought that would be a great benefit of bounced lighting and would make for a more pleasing rolloff.
Just thinking here, but sure you and everyone have tried this. What if you built a book light similar setup, but then add a grid or flags to the projecting side? Would that provide soft bounced light with some control or do you see that causing other issues?
Hi, first, thanks for sharing experiences and comparisons on lighting set-ups. I'm not a fan of vlog but adding a little bit of your city and new people make it nicer imo. Did you try very large silver umbrella? There are 70" of these. The parabolic shape might make large source AND directional lighting for very affordable price. Maybe add a large piece of plastic film (like the paint cover ones) as an almost translucent giant diffuser between the light and you. It should make it a little softer and you can make gradient by changing angle. Keep up the good work! :-)
Hey! I am kind of in a mix. I love the BMPCC4K image it looks film like and beautiful, but the batter life and no image stabilization throws me off. So I was considering getting a GH5 for those features, but the image doesn’t even compare to the BMPCC4k. What do you think is the better option or is their a 3rd option I can consider.
I have 6k one and GH5 and probably will go with GH5 even though I also love the 6k image. In the end you can always color grade it a bit. My bigger concern is low light performance for shadow areas
Brady! Have you ever bounced light off full grid cloth or magic cloth. Unbleached muslin is nice to bounce for a warm source but would you recommend a more daylight/neutral bounce material if I don't want the warmth? Full grid cloth looks nice diffused but I'm wondering if it has similar bounce properties like unbleached muslin.
Question: What is the name of unbleached muslin in spanish? In Perú the muslin I found was completly different that the muslin I have seen in different videos. The only textile I found that was similar to the muslin was something called Tocuyo. Any help would be apreciated.
It may be worth searching for "Calico" - this is what it's referred to in the UK at least. It comes in different thicknesses too. Hope that helps (even if the comment is a year old!)
Brady Did you know that Bounced lights was first introduced in cinematography by the great Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray😊? He is also an Oscar winning filmmaker ❤
You will lose a lot of light by reflecting off translucent fabric compared to harder surfaces like white foamboard or acrylic. Foamboard is very lightweight and inexpensive but it's a rigid media so really best suited for home studio use. Acrylic is available in a huge range of colours (ie reflective 'gels') as well as mirror surface, much safer than glass, but is quite heavy and again has portability issues because it is rigid. Flat reflectors are also easier to aim, so you don't need to flag so much. Getting more output from your lights is critical because you can then put on an ND and crank open your aperture, for some background separation. I use foamboard in my home studio, it's easy to position on light stands and can also baffle unwanted audio reflections, and small pieces of acrylic mirror to introduce interesting background lighting shapes, an idea I got off seeing a video from Caleb Pike. But I love your vibe, and the knit on that sweater is awesome.
In reality there is not a lot of difference between bounced and difussed light. If all the elements are the same, volume and size of the source, you would be hard pressed to see a luminance difference. It is all in the size/shape of source and output.
Great video, but to be honest my 1.99 USD shower curtain looks still a bit better for diffusing light (works similar to grid cloth which is personally my favorite diffusion).
@Brady Bessette Yeah, but it sometimes looks a bit weird when I show up on a set with a shower curtain:) BTW, keep doing those amazing videos. Such helpful and informative content.

Hi, first, thanks for sharing experiences and comparisons on lighting set-ups. I'm not a fan of vlog but adding a little bit of your city and new people make it nicer imo.
Did you try very large silver umbrella? There are 70" of these. The parabolic shape might make large source AND directional lighting for very affordable price. Maybe add a large piece of plastic film (like the paint cover ones) as an almost translucent giant diffuser between the light and you. It should make it a little softer and you can make gradient by changing angle.
Keep up the good work! :-)
Amazing... how can I light a day hospital scene when am shooting at the Window
Qué gran comparación!
Nice job. Just a minor nitpick that might have helped the contrast a bit is wearing a darker sweater.
Hey! I am kind of in a mix. I love the BMPCC4K image it looks film like and beautiful, but the batter life and no image stabilization throws me off. So I was considering getting a GH5 for those features, but the image doesn’t even compare to the BMPCC4k. What do you think is the better option or is their a 3rd option I can consider.

what app do you use on your ipad for monitoring

What’s the width and height of the Muslin?
Hey Brady what area are you located in?
In reality there is not a lot of difference between bounced and difussed light. If all the elements are the same, volume and size of the source, you would be hard pressed to see a luminance difference. It is all in the size/shape of source and output.

You have bring the cloth away from the source of light when diffusing it.

Bounce is the way to go. Even shooting through double diffusion looks too sourced.
