Dear FTF crew, I have spent days now binge watching your videos and will sign up for your class, even if much of the content is just repeats of what I've seen. $400 or so for a college degrees worth of info is darn cheap. I have a $50,000 degree that I never used! LOL. Could make that $400 back in a day with the information! I'm working on setting up a few RUclips channels and a couple of podcasts. Incidentally, I loaded up my B&H cart with about $2500 worth of gear (BMD 6KG2, lenses, filters, basic stuff) and wanted to give you guys the credit. I kind of understand how affiliate programs work, but I had to dig to find a B&H link! I found it on Parker's page I guess for gear. So I clicked one of the B&H links (random product I didn't get) and then checked out with my cart. I hope they pay you the commish on everything in my cart. It's the least I can do for all of the amazing content I've watched in the last few days. I hope others do the same and that it's a fruitful referral or affiliate program.
That's a GREAT video. Has to stop at 1:37 because just that "expose for what you cannot control" thing alone its worth the comment, so important! brilliant!
Lighting is everything, whenever I ask my producers for a new piece of equipment. Their immediate reaction is, "we know it has something to do with a piece of lighting equipment!" We all break into laughter and I refer to your videos as the reasons why. Thank you Sun!
9:50 curious as to the "half apple missing" ha ha. im like "were they trying to cover up the logo in post and it slipped?". Great vid. lighting is so wonderful and amazing. was in charge of lighting a few CG projects and I went down the rabbit hole of how light behaves. Studying how global illumination, ambient occlusion and how ray marching works. light is the magic. I do a lot of audio engineering and its a common issue where people will keep turning up different bands of the eq, instead of subtractive carving of problematic frequencies.. just adding and adding and you end up with a noise loud piece of music with no balance. Glad to see the first part of this video talk about exposing for room first. good stuff. have a good one
Thank your for this great Video! 1. Overexposes Background 2. Flat Image 3. Incorrect mood 4. Overusing Hard Light 5. Not enough Light 6. Not lighting spaces 7. No Background Separation 8. Overexposed skin tones 9. Wrong color temperature 10 No color Contrast
I would also like to add that when creating depth, keep your subject off the wall and maybe use the long end of the lens to help with creating a shallow depth of field. And if you are in a small room, try to shoot catacorner if you can. The longest distance in any room is corner to corner. When you film in a lot of small doctor offices, you learn a few tricks...lol
First one great video!! Much to my excitement of being first commenting - I have been watching many of your videos and your tips and tricks have made my video production quality much better. Many thanks for all the hard work that you do to produce high quality video that helps others
Very nicely done as usual, incredible color demonstration of each topic. I don’t make those mistakes. I make other mistakes - my most recent was skipping the Phil light in an interview, sticking with just two lights. This illustrates a point: many times due to budget or time, I don’t get the perfect lighting and say that’s good enough. This gets pretty so philosophical. Will save it for another video… Great job guys!
When I started filming, there were no cheap Chinese LED flashlights; I used construction halogen lamps on stands and white diffusers and umbrellas. These lights are cheap, about $5 for 500 watts, but they get very hot. And the room just gets hot. It was difficult to work with them, but I understand that it was a very good lesson.
The IRE tip for skintones it's misleading at best imo. It really depends on the gamma curve you're using to record the image, if I remember correctly, in order to have a clean image in post from a Slog2 gamma, you should expose skin tones between 65 and 80 IRE; many other gammas such as Clog require different expousures for a propper correction in post
Great inputs as always! BUT... you have to keep an eye on how many times you say "we have a course on that". There was a time, where you where a youtuber and not a channel that promotes it's paid courses. Anyways - thanks for sharing your knowledge with us 👍 cheers
Oh this is good this is real good. Happy to have been a part of this!
Hi @brady
Brady! Great collab with Parker! I still remember us talking cameras back at Farmer’s Table in Boca!
From the (Mark) Bone Zone to Fulltime Filmmaker, you're on a world tour!
Can’t wait to do this course 🧑💻
So many subtle cameos in this video! Thanks for the great content.

I am a total beginner to lighting, and this's been super helpful. Thank you!

Well you don't have to agree or disagree, you simply see it from a different point a view and that's okay too@@texaslineproductions
I didn’t learn shit in film school back in 2012-2015. I learned more about light in this 20 min video.
Woohoooo.... I'm a huge fan of Brady Bessette... its so good to see him in your channel...
Whattt !!!! 🤯🤯🤯
This was better than the 2 lighting classes I took in film school
Whoa Hozier is so talented, didn't know he was good with lights too
Honestly the most informative lighting video I have found on RUclips 🙏 Thank you
I agree!

I did't know anything about lighting. Thank you Parker, I really enjoy learnig from you.

I bought a camera just to discover that I'd actually need to spend more on lights than in the camera and glass lmao
Parker never disappoints with the content he brings to us.
True
Been waiting for Video like this.
