1 Light Trick – How to Light a Music Video at Night

01 Jan

Watch all my video & photo tutorials here: goo.gl Here is the finished music video: youtu.be Learn how to get a nice and simple shots outside at night using only 1 light. This is a technique I’ve used on many music videos that I call the “Hollywood Starlet” look because it’s a similar one light technique used in old Hollywood films from the 40’s and 50’s This technique can be used for videos, films, and photos. It’s simple and quick but produces good results. ______ Follow me on: Twitter twitter.com Facebook www.facebook.com Google+ t.co __________________________________________ film school tips and tricks tutorials all on my channel

    Cinema verite. Gritty urban reality. Minimalist. One light is all you need to create that look and feel.  Perfect for a rap video!

    That’s the John Alton lighting technique. The man wrote the book “Painting With Light”. Glad it worked for you.

    Hi Tom, I am Giovanni from Perú.
    I want to ask you a question about this example: Do you use neutral in your settings or natural?
