How to Light a Film Scene – Cinematography & Filmmaking Tutorial 4

More INFO on the Short Film School DVD www.tlapro.com Learn what makes great looking images in film, music videos etc. It’s not always the camera but how you design the shots. In this 4th tutorial I try to explain how I use the exact same setup I used in the previous tutorial for a different scene from the same film. Watch all my video & photo tutorials here: goo.gl The comedic duo that you see in this clip are actually the members of Nocturnal Emissions Comedy… hillarious guys!

    I have a normal homevideo HD camera I think it’s called a DXG-595V would it be possible to connect a microphone like a singing mic through to one of those using a special cord which I have, and kind of have that as a boom mic replacement

  15. your best light in here was exterior lighting with the girl who was wearing yellow clothes, what did you do to get this lighting outside ? Or was it just sunlight ?

  16. Nope… i never use noise reduction… slight noise is okay. Nobody will notice the noise specialy if the shots look interesting. As for exposure i NEVER use the built in light meter, unless Im shooting a scene that is entirely gray. Cuz the light meter exposes shots to the mid range gray… so in a scene with a lot of contrast it doesnt know what to expose properly. So instead I judge by eye and by using the histogram. You can see how I get the perfect exposure in my EXPOSURE tut

  17. Thnx! With the 7D I found ISO 1600 is the max… but if I do go to 1600 then I still make sure there is enough light to get a properly lit image at that speed. As for the aperture f1.8 is the lowest I use, beyond that the DOF is so narrow it’s hard to keep things in focus unless you’re doing a still shot.
