Great video! BTS of setups and explanations were excellent! Thank you for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m beginning with flash photography and this is very helpful. Thank you.
Loved this video, so many times we think we need so much lights but there is so much one can do with just 2! I just found your videos recently Mr. James Quants Jr, you do flawless work sir. Funny this video reminded me about a decade ago I was taking pictures of wedding dresses and I attempted the cross lights with umbrellas and remember liking it because it gave(to me)an edge but the designer and stylist did not liked it at all. By watching this video I now know that cross lighting is more suited for sports. Thanks for all the great information you share through your channel and tons of good health to you so you can keep on creating amazing images!
Thanks for the feedback Alexander!
Awesome thanks for this! Nice to see how you work with the amount of gear I have. Love!
This was definitely for all the people who have reached out about doing something with only a couple lights!
This video is just fantastic. I love the depth you go into and the great ideas for those of us who don’t have dozens of lights. I have just found your channel and the content has been very helpful for an amateur photographer like me.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another great one James!! Nice studio.Thanks!!
Thanks Steve!
Very slick James... the video is very informative and fun to watch... love the flow and angles... and managing all this just on your own... respect ✊🏽
Thanks, Ali! It probably takes me three days to make one of these!
Very awesome!
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
thank you so much - video is so easy to follow - your work is incredible
Thank you so much!
Awesome as always
Thanks Zamani, means a lot!
Great Video Mr. Quantz. Thank you!
Thanks, Gary!
Nice work on the two light setup. I might do the same over the Easter weekend.
Go for it!
Alot of learning information for the light setup good filming and verry good talking what you do for the result.
Happy easter from Sweden 👍🙂
Thanks I really appreciate the feedback - happy Easter as well! 👍
this was an excellent learning video with good examples
Thanks, Christa!
Great video James. Lots of good information here. Would love to see a two light setup outdoors. Keep it up! Subscribed.
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks for great sharing ... simple set up lighting but great result ... Happy Belated Easter from Jakarta Indonesia.
Thanks for watching, Gatot!
Great video. Found this very useful. When you decided to go with ratios on your umbrellas. How did you determine you were dropping 2 stops? I didn't see you meter.
Thanks, Bill. I made the decision from past experience although after looking closer at the results I should've made a few corrections as I noted in the video. A meter would have probably told me the same!
Appreciate all your effort in making these videos. I'm planning on trying a "drag and pop" type sport shoot in the near future. I think you have an example of this in your intro, football with red uniform. Constant light with longer shutter speed and late curtain flash.. Do you think outdoors at night is best to avoid seeing the constant LED? Thanks again from Sebastian, Florida
Thanks, Ted! For those rear curtain sync shots you'll need a dark space to control the light trails.
I would like to see the two-light set up with athletes in action and see how you work with them. Awesome video by the way.
Awesome
👍
I just want to know how you got the backdrop setup so perfectly!??
Thanks for the great behind the scenes videos, i have really enjoyed them! It appears you are making all adjustments based on the back of the camera. Do you usually use a meter when setting up certain types of shoots? What light meter do you use/recommend?
Hey Nicolas, on shoots like these I'm actually using the computer and all the information it gives me. Back in the days when I metered a lot I used a Sekonic.
@@QuantzPhoto Thank you for the information! I was shooting tethered yesterday and for some reason it was so delayed i had to use the back of the camera, which was good enough but not what i wanted to be using.
Interesting! Were you shooting with the R5? I was wondering why you stopped down the aperture 2 stops (7:21) instead of changing your shutter speed? Is depth of field less important with a white background like that?
Hey Galen, my max shutter sync speed with strobes on the R5 is 1/200 and you are correct on the depth of field with that type of image.
2 thumbs up James. Never can understand why folks hit that thumbs down. Anyways, great work yet again man :~)
Keep me on my toes!
When using two lights like this, does the double catch light in the eyes bother you?
Not at all!
@@QuantzPhoto Do you edit it out or just leave it?
I bet he does a KILLER Clinton impression! =P Great video James! =)
Thanks Bert! Not so sure on the Clinton part 😂
Patreon link not working :(. I get 404 error
Update: I had to manually enter the url, the link from youtube changes it and it doesn't go to your patreon. Signing up now!
Thanks Charlie, I think I've fixed it! New video will be up on there soon!
Great info...heavy on the ads. I had two ad breaks in the first five mins plus the intro ad. Didn't finish.
Sorry!
