This was SO GREAT, i actually made notes haha! Also, you seem so much more natural and confident in front of the camera these days than when i first started watching back in the day. Love your videos Alice :) xxx
✨Well done, Alice! You've sorted out the details about lighting very nicely here. Twinkle Mom especially appreciates your instructional videos because they are so well organized and easy to follow - a challenge when dealing with more technical topics. We've all become so anesthetized (and yes, I mean "anesthetized") to cameras that do everything automatically for us that the *art* of photography is too often lost. All of your work is art, as far as I'm concerned. We hope you are feeling well and look forward to your next installment!🤗❤️✨
This was so helpful! As someone who is self taught, this well structured video was a great refresher! Will definitely be going back to this in the future :)
Good tutorial explaining these 3 key components. While I didn't major in Photography in college I did major in Cinema and learned cinematography and the rules are almost identical. It was intimidating learning those 3 at first but then you realize how much you can control and yeah it becomes second nature the more you practice.
So detailed, you're so good at explaining and breaking things down. I'll definitely be referring back to this video regularly! I would love to know more about filming videos and focusing the camera and all of that as well. I find that really confusing! xx
I use a remote when filming videos - I made a 'How I Film Videos' video a while back where I talk about this, I think you'd find it really helpful :) ruclips.net/video/81_mRx3A2gg/видео.html xx
Anything photography related, I would love to watch! Maybe include more in depth info on this type of thing here or info on different lens would be cool. Any of your creative projects would be nice too. Hope that helps! :-) xx
Oh I've always wondered about apertures, especially for thumbnails. I mostly just use auto (or I use my boyfriend, as the camera belongs to him and he knows how to use it). Thanks for explaining all this :) ♡Sel
Thank you! I think the sharpness is the same, but I always find that the exposure looks better when I set it myself - if I didn't the brightness would change too much in my videos :)
I feel like I need to watch this multiple times with my camera and play around with the settings as you talk about them lol. I really need to practice with these, but it's so intimidating. So, can you get the blurry background just by playing with Aperture or do you need a certain lens as well? I swear I need a little cheat card to carry around with me, because once I get out into the real world I can't remember ISO and F stops and stuff and just end up switching back to Auto.
Yeah, do! That will really help! You might need a certain lens for the blurry background, it depends what lens you have at the moment. Anything f/3 or lower will make the background blurry :) There are loads of cheat sheets on Pinterest! ;) I used to carry the instructions for my camera around with me haha, it takes time x
Alice Red I have a kit lens, 14-42mm. For the Olympus Pen a lot of bloggers recommend a 45mm lens for depth of field and blurry background but yikes, it's an expensive lens lol! And I will check Pinterest for cheat sheets. Thanks for the tip!
I, Ron, Wish to know the settings for M/A/SS. Denote in ur video the settings. eg. Sunny,Cloudy rainy days. Settings for day n night. Thanks, RonPeris, Malaysia.

Great video! Thanks 😀
Very informative thank you
very very helpful video Alice x

You explained this so well! Thank You. Do you find that the image is better when you manually adjust the settings versus automatic?
Thank you! I think the sharpness is the same, but I always find that the exposure looks better when I set it myself - if I didn't the brightness would change too much in my videos :)
This was so helpful!!
Thanks for watching :)
Very interesting!
Could you make a video specifically talking about shooting with film? :) Thanks!
I'd love to! I haven't used my film cameras for aaaaages! :)
