I love how your videos are just technical enough for those curious or entering the industry where more technical information would be overwhelming. And your editing is clean and well paced. Thank you for making these!
Man, thank you Your videos still inspire me in my creative life, from the first day I saw your first video Thank you for sharing! Greetings from Russia!
Sir great video can please you make video on the cinematography style of Subrata Mitra ,who invented technique of bounced light.... 1st cinematographer in the history of motion pictures to use this ...in Satyajit Ray's movies.
Seeing a Telugu Dop an Indian in your tute made me very happy, the man with the sky panel is Kk.senthil kumar the Dop of Bahubali movie and the new INDIAN Bigger movie RRR directed by Rajamouli Sir 😊
I enjoy your videos, especially as someone who works in Film and Television myself, but I wish you would add the film title, year, and even the DP's name over the clips you use.
You should also add that, when using a full CTB on a tungsten yeah you get to 5600k but you loose about 2 stops of light (so you divided the light output by 4 which is enormous), and therefore the DP has to consider whether or not he plans to get 3200k or 5600k in his shot during preprod to avoid using a 3200k fixture and color correct it to 5600k therefore loosing a lot of output ! And you could easily expand more on LED and why it's better than fluorescent (almost no wire, no flicker and no ballast, can be battery, super lightweight, RGB), and therefore conclude that fluorescent will disappear in a near future in the industry !
Highly informative, thank you. From a newbie standpoint, what is the point of using HMI or Tungsten if you have LED? I guess for Tungsten it's the price difference, but other than that, any advantages as of 2021?
about the arri flicker free... its not really flicker free but it uses a higher Hz output than the High Speed ones. But you will still have problems when you are going to do extreme slow motion things.
Kino also has 2900K bulbs 5600k bulbs are labeled in blue 3200k bulbs are labeled in orange 2900k blulbs are labeled in red The 2900k bulbs are less popular as they have the worst color rendition I spent some time working at a crappy rental house that only had 2900k bulbs, they would just send out the kino's with a big piece of correction gel and plus green to (hopefully) dial the light to be usable The tubes had a bad habit of turning green or magenta over time, that's why they threw in the plus green
One thing I noticed, which I'd like to know if it is a consequence of LED lights largely replacing tungsten is, that films since the mid/early 2010s look different than films that were released in the 90s and 00s. The skin used to look softer and the overall picture had a distinct vibe that immediately felt like a film. It's hard to describe, but you might notice it if you look at the early Harry potter movies or the first Spiderman trilogy and compare them to more recent blockbuster flicks. If anyone can help i'd be glad to hear it!
I'm also curious about this, but I have a feeling there are so many factors in play, such as the advent of digital over film and the image getting sharper and sharper, sometimes too sharp for some DPs.
There can be several factors. It's not necessarily (only) the light source that gives the picture a film look. Digital pictures are super sharp nowadays. To counter that you can use a Black Pro Mist filter in different sizes: 1/8 (less extreme), 1/4 (more extreme effect). The filter changes pointy lights like leds to a more shiny light and reduces the overall sharpness of the picture. It also makes the skin softer. You can also add grain to a digital picture to immitate the usual grain of kodak film. Also CGI might be too sharp and look very artificial in general. Those are just 3 factors that affect the image we see and it's completely subjective whether you like the sharper or the less sharper film look. So, it's up to the filmmakers what they wanna use.
I recently bought a fresnel with a 2k tungsten light, it heats a lot, and I got a doubt about it: Do I need to wait the light to cool down to move it like a HMI or can I manipulate it hot without any problems?
Unfortunately LEDs produces a lot of heat, so it requires big coolers usually with fans which produces noise. Also good full spectrum phosphor LEDs are have a same light output in terms of lm/w as HMI which not require cooling system and can be much more powerful.
Next time you upload a video, try not have 20 million ads between each subject. I can deal with 1 at the front and the end, but not all the way through
I get the need for sponsors but the overwhelming nanlite references were abit much. 3.5 mins in i’ve seen like 20 images or mentions. I stopped watching. Really dope channel but I hope this doesn’t become an overwhelming product placement sponsored youtube channel.
@@mauriciochavez3564 4.5 mins of bias promotion on a 12 min video seems a bit much to me. I truly hope this is not the future format. The avg commercial is only 30 secs.

You sir, are perhaps the best film creator on RUclips. Your videos are absolutely brilliant. We are all thankful for them.
He’s really good. You should check out Like Stories of Old. An amazing creator.
I love how your videos are just technical enough for those curious or entering the industry where more technical information would be overwhelming. And your editing is clean and well paced. Thank you for making these!
Your videos are so well made, good job, really
This is the first channel I see here kn youtube that actually gives industry standard knowledge and no videography or youtuber tips
Much Appreciation for you and all the Pure Gems of knowledge you share with us! Blessings 😃😊
Been waiting for this particular one, let’s go!
Glad you shed a light on this topic. 😏💡
Wow so much I've learned today, thanks for making the video sir.
Fantastic, thanks for the clear information.
Man, thank you
Your videos still inspire me in my creative life, from the first day I saw your first video

Greetings from Russia!
underrated chanel
Awesome tutorial
Sir great video can please you make video on the cinematography style of Subrata Mitra ,who invented technique of bounced light.... 1st cinematographer in the history of motion pictures to use this ...in Satyajit Ray's movies.
A really informative video - you always put so much effort into your videos. I hope they are more videos about lighting in the future. Stay safe!
One more thing I would add is how accurate each of these lights are regarding CRI and TLCI
Haha, Doyle partially perplexed con bira is great!
This is perfect ! An amazingly straightforward and concise video
6:15 that's actually a carbon arc lamp, they were used extensively in the early days of cinema until the 60's maybe, slowly replaced by HMI.
Your video essays have given me such a good insight into the filmmaking process, thanks so much🙏🏽 been a huge fan since Relics
You are really the best. Thank you.
How much did Nanlite pay to make sure Aputure and Quasar never got mentioned 😂😂😅
Are they good? Pricey? Nanlite is affordable
This was so informative! Thank you!!

Keep rockin', man. Great video!
this video was very helpfull . thankyou soo much
Such valuable information!
Awesome vid, thx!
lovely knowledge bombs, please keep posting
Another beautiful video!!
I loved this, thanks my dude!!!

Much harsher sources from HMI/ Tungsten. LEDs simply don't have the same output
Very good lesson....!!
Amazing video! Thank you
Great Video!!!
Pure gold for aspiring filmmakers
Fascinating stuff! Have you ever done a video on working with entirely natural lighting? Or maybe improvised lighting?
about the arri flicker free... its not really flicker free but it uses a higher Hz output than the High Speed ones. But you will still have problems when you are going to do extreme slow motion things.
Kino also has 2900K bulbs
5600k bulbs are labeled in blue
3200k bulbs are labeled in orange
2900k blulbs are labeled in red

Nice info❤
Very nice and well made video, thanks! What is the Japanese (?) movie called that you're using in the Fluorescent part?
Thanks for the Wonk Kar Wai
The Master is a great movie, great cast too
Awesome & Thanks :)
Hmis these days can be moved while on without any problems, they are even used on driving trailers.
In cinema can you mix the light tungsten with the led light?
Great vid..

Great video !!
What's the name of the movie they used to illustrate fluorescent lights please ? I love the framing of the shots
Fallen Angels (1995)
Fantastic
What lights are best used for skin?
What about lasers used as background elements?
What's the name of the asian movie he used to illustritate the flourescent lights?
Hi, Great Video, what movie do you use in the Fluorescent section?
my favorite lighting is natural light
Very good
tks
What’s the name of the film at the end?
2:19 hey...senthil
which movie is the one of 10:32 and 10:45?
Fallen Angels (1995) - directed by Wong Kar-Wai, Christopher Doyle being the cinematographer ;)
What about neon lights?
Yes I enjoyed the video..
The LED part It feels more an ad than a learning path for cinematography
KK Senthil Kumar sir at 02:20....
Is Nanlite better quality than Godox?
His voice reminds me of Ewan McGregor Ben Kenobi
Next time you upload a video, try not have 20 million ads between each subject. I can deal with 1 at the front and the end, but not all the way through
All the electrics watching this must’ve laughed when he called LED’s easiest to use 😭😭
great vid tho :3
Film at 10:31?
10:22 please the name of this movie
He put a list of the films he featured in the last 10 seconds of the video so it should be there
fallen angels
Name of movie at 11:25?
Fallen Angels (1995) - directed by Wong Kar-Wai, Christopher Doyle being the cinematographer ;)
Please what is the last film name Asian film
film 11:32?
this just a long ad for nanlite
🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
I miss my wife
Fluorescent lights aka bzzzz bl bl blink b b b blink blink blblblink
Christ. Drives me insane.
Done watching your videos. The last two I've seen have been nothing but ads with clickbaity titles.
I get the need for sponsors but the overwhelming nanlite references were abit much. 3.5 mins in i’ve seen like 20 images or mentions. I stopped watching. Really dope channel but I hope this doesn’t become an overwhelming product placement sponsored youtube channel.
that's beacuse at the beginning of the video he talks about led lights, from 4:27 he never talk about nanlite again

@@jackstacks83 as a newbie I still found the Nanlite/LED part highly informative. Does it truly lack any substance from a pro standpoint?
