Thank you for sharing useful little things in a seemingly ordinary shooting)
Very kind, thanks!
Great to see you using the new Pro-D3!!!
I love it!
Hi, Martin congratulation for very nice PRO D3. I was filling your enjoyment and excitation :) I like it ! BR Lovrenc
Glad to hear that! Thanks
Nice job Martin, looks very realistic, very cool my friend😎
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks Martin, another interesting video!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Lovely exercise in using and controlling light. Thought-provoking.
Very kind, thanks!
And thanks again!
Any time!
Thanks for a tip ! Maybe, can you do next tutorial about some of the composition rules even your not using them ?
Hi Richard, I guess I follow my gut. But in this video I really followed the golden ratio/diagonal/triangle-ish composition tool 100%. There are many other comp rules and yes... I should do more.
Thanks Martin! Awesome as always
Thanks again!
Bam. What a Tutorial. Awesome. Thanks!
Thanks Lars! Very kind.
Hello! im still life and still photography ))) nice to see u man!!!!
Hey, thanks!
Amazing tutorial. Definitely need more of this.
More to come! Thanks!
Great video. Would love to see more videos about composition
More to come!
This is really fantastic!
Thank you, very kind!
Perfect! Some really good ideas in this Video, specially the one with the overlay. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
It's interesting to think about why this occurs in nature too. I've heard of a lot of painters thinking that all light behaves this way, with a warm source having cool shadows, etc., when in reality it's a bit more specific. I think it's very clever to use the strobes in this way mimicking the sun as the point source and the shadows being lifted by secondary illumination from the cooler ambient light from the sky. I hadn't really given it much thought before watching this video. Even though it was simple for you to actually set up and execute, it was still very informative and I'm glad you made this video on the topic.
Ellie, I'm very happy to hear that it was useful for you.
Love it 😊
Yay! Thank you!
very unique and helpful ~~ thanks
Glad you think so!
Great video mr Botvidsson. Really like your style with the knox box and all😂
Very kind, thanks! Snus! 😁
Cool as always!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very nice shot and I love the light set up with the blue gel! Big hug Martin
Hugs back! Very kind, thanks!
Now these are the videos that I love of your Martin. I'm not so interested in the AI stuff, I know it's necessary of course but I just love watching you create the shot with light etc.
thanks a million!
Great tutorial as always.
Thank you! Cheers!
Very nice one Martin!! Hope you are safe :)
Thanks Vicente, you too!
I love your tutorials and how they can be used for other subjects. I’m currently trying to shoot lifestyle photos of watches with a sunlight effect, would you have any pointers on how to do it differently compared to this? The reflective nature of watches can really be a pain sometimes.
Yes, hard light on a watch is... kind of hard. You can do it if you place the flash far away and then play araound with diffusion and bounce cards.
마지막에 메인라이트를 다이렉트로 쓰지 않고, 엣지부분을 쓴다는 팁 정말 감사합니다 ! 그리고 필라이트로 블루젤을 이용해서 천장 바운스로 쓰는 팁도 정말 감사해요~ 화이트보드 반사판보다 훨씬 더 자연스럽습니다!
Thank you, you're very welcome.
Inspiring content, this man is genius! 🔥
I appreciate that! Very kind, thanks!
So good, ty!
Thank you too!
Hi Martin great tut as always. :)
Just one little thing, i know that it's "sun" light and it makes strong highlights, specially the ones from de blue light, in the Heins bottle. Are you ok with that, or if it was for a real client, would you soften them?
Thanks
In this kind of shot I would let it be as "natural" as possible. Not care about gradients and fine tuning like a product shot. If the client would have some issues I would fix it of course.
Not really 100% following you how you mean strong highlight from the blue? You mean the down side of the Heinz bottle?
I understand the "natural", and i'm ok with that, i like it also. Yes I mean the down side or the bottle, it looks like we see the bulb of the flash head. Just my OCD ahahaha. By the way you explain light like no one does! Awsome. Thanks for that
Great! 😁 But where do you see the bulb? shared-assets.adobe.com/link/97cf5529-c304-4621-58d1-251d9f75dc19
Yes, the "blue" flash do not hit the set directly, just bounces from a matte ceiling. Big big light source.
You inspire me man. Thank you
I appreciate that!
Great info. Excellent video as usual
I appreciate that
this is gold content
thanks a million!
Hi Martin, another great tutotial. Thank You very much. One question about zoom reflector grids. If I can't found 5 degree grid do you think 10 degree will be enough in dramatic scenarious like You created hiere? I tryed found some cheeper grid than profoto but I think 10 degree it is the minimum I can get in low price.
Yes, absolutely. Sometimes a 5 degree is nice to have when you want a super small spot of light but in this case a 10 works I think.
@@botvidsson Thanks a lot, I bought 10, 30 and 50 degree set with (china) zoom reflector and tomorrow I'm starting testing.
@@grzegorzmanko3193 Sounds great, good luck!
Hi Martin - I'm quite new to this and found your channel reasonably early in my journey. How lucky I am for that, because I'm learning so much. I wanted to ask you about this overlay that you use here. Can this be done in Lightroom Classic with the Live View? I don't have Capture One so I'm hoping there is a solution for this.
Welcome aboard! 'm almost sure that you can use overlays in LR... almost. But I never tested it unfortunately but it might be called: Layout Image Loupe Overlay
@@botvidsson Thanks so much. I didn't know about this feature so I'll give it a shot. Doesn't appear to work in Live View like in Capture One, but it's the next best thing, I'd say. Thanks again.
is it also possible to use a full cto whit the ''sun lamp'' en use the shadow light without a gel? or is the effect different
Yes, that must work too
My favourite word from Martin's vocabulary - "this...shi-shi" ... 😆😆😆
What was that? 😂
@@botvidsson Well, you know...when you can't come up with some word in English, you make this...half-whistling sound "shi-shi" or "shu-shu" with your lips and tongue. Which explains everything! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 It's like Martin Botvidsson's version of Google Translate. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@tedming3515 😁😁😁😁
Hello, a question, what model is the tripod you use? At what height is the maximum it can be placed? thank you!
Yes, correct. Maximum. Don't know how tall unfortunately: www.amazon.com/dp/B001A1TMQQ?linkCode=spc&tag=onamzfotograf-20&creativeASIN=B001A1TMQQ&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.2NLEZK5IOYSAE&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ons_d_asin

Thx Martin
My pleasure
Amazing tutorial as always Martin,
I just have few Questions:
1-based on your other tutorial you were using a bare flash to mimic the sun.but why this time you are using the grid.are you trying to mimic the sun lights going through a window for example?
2-what are you using to stick the SSD drive to your MAC :)
Hi Nader nice to see you!
If I use a bare flash the scene will get direct light and the shadow fill from the bounce light in the room, and you can do that. No problem.
In this case I wanted 100% control of the shadow fill with a second flash (The one with blue gel). I found this way better and more realistic to add a more neutral/blueish tone to the shadows.
Does the make sense?
@@botvidsson Thank you Martin,Your answer explains well.what about the second Question coz I will try to do the same on my MAC
It's velcro, something like this: www.amazon.se/VELCRO-Brand-VEL-EC60241-Förstärkt-Svart/dp/B00186Q9AK/ref=asc_df_B00186Q9AK/?tag=shpngadsglede-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=476575374609&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1111178013429331738&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1012232&hvtargid=pla-385764673915&psc=1

Hi! First of all, thank you for this informative video as usual hehe. I have a question that some people say Feathering Light is quite a myth to achieve the softer look, only relative size and distance from light to subject matter. Do you have any more information about this technique?
I feather the light all the time. Probably 90% of all my light is feathered. It's not about to get the light softer, well... it will be softer but the main reason is to create a GRADIENT. From bright to dark.
@@botvidsson ah I got it! That is what I am looking for: THE GRADIENT. Thank you for your reply!
Класс!
Very kind, thanks!
