very good lamb of god Iove
Go away.
This is an average drummer. He’s not on the same level as Vinnie or Steve Asheim–& they’re not on the level with others. Raise your standards & you might find yourself making it look easy. The rest of the band is total shit though to his credit.
someone who disliked must have changed their minds and liked it later.
crazy
i know what you mean, but i think it sits perfect in the mix when they all perform live, when just hearing the drums it sounds bright indeed
Hes a great player, fucking flawless, but is it just me, or is Chris Adler’s snare tone always WAAAAAAAY to bright and poppy?
Just an observation, i fucking LOVE LOG!
it was six when i posted that up. dunno how it got to 5 :/
6???
Set to fail is one of their easier songs tho

greattt
One should said to her, not stand like a stone on the stage … visually better,
6 people have already failed.
Ninja on the drums
Chris would be the ultimate jedi master if the let him dual weild light sabers instead of drum sticks.
Funny how the top comments are both by Bear Grylls.
Lmao, well everyone knows that his the best metal drummer ever existed…
it does. that small moment there is a pause. simply an amazing drummer.
I call shenanigans. I swear I saw that beard playing the drums for a second…
the tricky thing is his feet
You are limited to the Sync Speed of your camera. You will need to a radio system that is capable of high speed syncing such as the Pocket Wizard TT1/TT5 Flex.
hi my friend, i use YN rf 603 trigger but i can`t use over 1/200 what i can do? how i can use them over 1/200? is it possoble with this trigger?
I loved the videos, his work!
You’ll need to get a radio system that fires TTL such as the newer Pocketwizard TT1/TT5 Flexes or the newer Radio Poppers. Personally, unless I am in a run and gun situation such as a mad wedding, I never use TTL. With TTL, everytime you press the shutter, the exposure is metered slightly different, delivering a different quantity of light from your TTL flashes. This inconsistency can be a major time consuming problem when editing an set or learning lighting. I highly recommend Manual Modes.
what if my trigger does not fire with TTL off camera?
The Paul C. Buff Cyber Syncs do not support High Speed Syncing… You must go with the late model Pocket Wizards or Radio Poppers. As I have not invested in this type of triggering system, I still shoot in optimal lighting conditions or utilize longer focal lengths and Neutral Density Filters to get a shallow DOF in bright and harsh lighting conditions.
TTL Flashes have to be set in TTL Mode, even if they are off the camera. TTL modes are capable even if the flash is off the camera
does TTL flashes become manual everytime it is off-camera?
A Grudio ahahahah xD
Hi, tell me pls… your triggers by AlienBees… does it support a FP-sync (hss)? how do u go without this option if it not supported in your sync’s? tnx
d you did’t talk abut lens !!
but thanks t
I really liked your videos. And I’ll request you if you can make a tutorial for photoshop editing. Thanks.
This is indeed a home-made beauty dish based on the design of David Tejada. Google his name and beauty dish and you’ll pull up the links to his site and the instructions for making one yourself. They are designed for the Nikon SB-800, but with some modifications, you could create one to fit most speedlights
Hi, which beauty dish you have in a your video? self made?
No Hot Shoe as threads for mounting them to a tripod or stand. Nikon’s late model flashes such as the SB-800 has a small flat “foot” with 1/4″ standard threads for mounting. Lightstands are roughly 75.00 USD. I advise to save up until you can afford one. Jury rigging runs the risk of ruining or dropping you hard earned flash 🙂
Hey I got one question. I cant afford a light stand. Does the original flash shoe(that comes together when purchasing) has a screw mount for tripod at the bottom?
Hows them local Camel stores coming along? Great video and helped a lot thanks!
Nikon SB-24, Nikon SB-25,
what brand and model of flashes are you showing us in this video?
Great info thankyou for uploading.regards
In the video we stated that we are shooting in Manual Mode and the Flash is in Manual Mode. Find a flash that has a PC Sync jack and a Manual mode. You’ll be good to go. When you shoot on manual, brand specific flashes really don’t matter. In the video, I talked what places and resources to find them.
What flash woud I buy for Canon 7d? An affordable one.
Keep ’em coming!
Good stuff! Looking forward to the next episode : )
Thanks! Great tutorial. I am so anxious to see the next video! Please upload it soon!!!
