Hey this is Daniel Norton
I'm here in my studio in New York City
with Casey, and so I get the question a lot
because I've been doing a lot of videos you know..
I love to use all the different new
equipments coming out, and we've done a
lot of videos with LED's lately, and I got
a question. You know, why would a stills
photographer let's say get LED panels, or use
LED panels versus flash, and right away
especially in my case, but in many
people's case, I thought well if you need
to shoot a video too. Right, a lot of
people are doing multimedia now ...
whether you're doing a catalog, you know ...
where they want to show some
movement in the
clothing, or you're shooting.. you know,
a head shot of somebody.
They need to show some expression...
or an interview, you're gonna maybe mix
what you're doing, right?
And it used to be we'd set up our like
hot lights, maybe, and then we'd set up our
flash, but now the lights are so
versatile, that I think you can get away
with oftentimes using your constant
lights for everything. In this case LED's,
so I have a few LED's here from my panels
to kind of show you guys a good, like
basic beauty/interview lighting
setup, and we'll first, we'll talk about
shooting the video, part of it, and then
this still. So I'm gonna hit the video
record on my Canon here, so I'm recording
some video there, so you guys can see.
Casey so don't make any funny faces!
Alright so back here, I have a Bi-focus
light panel, so what this is going
to allow you to do is, to kind of change
your beam angle. Right, I'm using this for
the hair light. You might also use it
let's say if you are throwing another spot light
in the background.
The reason I'm using it for my hair light is..
because I'm gonna back it kind of... out
so it's out of my shot, shooting forward,
like we do hair lights, and I want to point it
right at her, and then I'm gonna kind of
just change my focus pattern, until I get it
where I want it, on her hair, so we'll fire
the guy up, so I'm shooting in daylight
white balance. This is a daylight unit,
I'm right now, I'm all the way spotted, I
think I'm gonna go mostly flooded on
this one, and we'll get it where we like
it. Cool!
So I'm looking here if you have a
monitor or something, you can kind of
look through as well. But you guys can
see kind of bring the power up, and
down, so you guys can see the difference.
Anyone want to bring it along. So nice
and simple spotlight... from the back. I got
it mostly flooded now, but it's giving me
that control. Right. If I wanted to spot
it to get it off of things, I could do
that as well.
So now what I'm going to do basically..
Our fill light right is over here. I've got
the six times Astra, so that's the more
powerful one. So they've got different
levels of them. You've got like your
basic ones, then your powerful ones, so
this guy's got more oomph. So I'm using
it for my fill. The reason why is cause
I'm bouncing my fill, bouncing the, the
light is gonna scatter it everywhere.
It's gonna, I'm gonna need more light to
do it. I'm just bouncing it off a simple
reflector, if you had, if you were in a
smaller space, she might have light bounced off
a wall or something, but there's a nice
silver reflector bouncing it in, for some
specular... look to the light, this one by
the way is Bi-Color, and I have this one
dialed into about 5600 Kelvin. So you
could if you wanted, a warm fill or
something, you could always warm it up a
little bit, but I'm going to keep it around 56.
Cool, adjust my power, so it looks good on
her. Usually you're just eyeballing it.
You guys can see how that comes in on her.
Right about there. Looks good to me, and
that'll get our decent exposure. I'm
gonna look to my camera.. yep.. she looks
pretty good. She's very dark, and moody
right now, but we're gonna bring in the
key light now. So key light as I
mentioned often times. I usually like to
set it over center, when I'm shooting a
female subject. So nothing different here,
gives her a nice shape to her face. Now
what I am doing here is. I'm using the
Astra soft. This has like a nice panel in
front, to give creamy light on the face.
It really comes in nicely, and gives her
a beautiful light right across her face,
gives a nice kind of even look. We can
see so if she's looking at me, and she
could be if she was doing an interview
or something... you know.
I could be standing over here, and she'd
be talking to me and.. haha hey talk to me!
She was hosting right there.. so she did
that... that's hosting - when you look
at the lens you're hosting. She's
interviewing... she's talking to me oh... there we go.
Right... so there we go.
It makes it nice and simple right,
really clean, so let's talk camera
settings for a second right.So because
I'm shooting 30 frames and the reason why I'm
shooting 30 frames is, because the system
I'm using to shoot this multicam right
now for you guys is 30 frames. So I set
to match that. I want to set my shutter
speed at 1/60th of a second, you're
always gonna want to set your ISO as low
as possible of course. So I set it at 100
here, and I just dialed in. I'm.. I wanted a
decent amount up the filter. I dialed in
to about 5/6 and that actually gave me a
nice exposure. If at 5/ 6 yeah we're still
dark I would give myself more ISO, since
I can't really play with the shutter
speed too much. You can get you know, most
cameras, you can get up to 400, 800 ISO
no problem,
so and here... but these are very
bright lights, and they're close so it
wasn't really a problem. So that's where
I'm setting now, that's perfect for video,
but if I'm shooting stills.
Number one - the backgrounds black,
so I don't need to
have it in focus and
Number two - you know
I might try being a trying to get actual
reactions from her, and smiles and stuff.
So she might be moving and a sixtieth
might give me a little bit of blur. So I
kind of want to mess with my settings
now. I'm going to keep the same amount of
light so that evey value as they call it
is the same, but I'm going to kind of
move my exposure triangle around a bit.
I'm also going to switch lenses, so I'm
at 50mm right now, 'cause that's
for video... that's pretty common to
use a normal lens for this kind of thing.
I'm gonna switch to my 85 though
because for a portrait. I often like to use a
slightly longer lens. This is the 85
millimeter 1.2 Canon. Obviously, okay cool
that's up. I'm going to switch to stills
mode. I'm going to plug-in. I'm tethering
into Capture One here, so whenever you're shooting
obviously in a situation like this,
especially tethering. It's really going to
be helpful to you, because you can see
the shots right away. They can see them
right away, you know, and then they can be
the shots are so great... I love them!
Or they can say... they, they sucA!
Also hopefully it's not gonna.. alright so
we're gonna wait for that thing to fire
up. We're gonna Capture One.
Yeah I'm up, ok so again, I'm at sixtieth of a second.
100 ISO, f/5.6 I know, I don't I
know, I want more shutter speed, so I want
to go I think 250. That way she could
move around and stuff, and express if she
wants to, and if I do my math, I should go
f/2.8. So a simple way to do this, if you
don't kind of, can't do the math in your
head. Your camera is going to remember
everything lines up. Right so your camera
clicks. So if I bring my shutter up in
this case they're in thirds, so I brought
my shutter up six clicks. I can bring my
aperture open six clicks. It balances out.
Alright so we'll take a look, obviously
closer to her now because I have the 85mm,
I'm gonna back up a little bit, remember
compression is based on where you stand!
So I'm gonna get nicer compression by
backing up.
I'm focusing on her eyes, I'm going to take a
shot. Boom... there we go, nice and clean,
right wouldn't come in again. We're
shooting a f/2.8. We have a nice exposure
on her. Her eyeballs are sharp!
I mean at f/2.8 her ears are getting soft
but that's pretty acceptable for a portrait ..
now we can move around, and do
whatever we like.
You'd even do it in portrait style
instead of landscape style, if you want.
But I like to shoot landscape, I feel
like a lot stuff now is online. So and
also if you want to use as a thumbnail
for a video, also I'm gonna get in and
chop off the top of her head a little
bit, which I love to do, and you guys can
all make comments about that.
Good okay... so there we go,
okay so let's shoot, if
you like this, boom beautiful eyes, nice.
She can look around, you cannot stop
because at 250 that's pretty good right?
I mean again 250, is not crazy, crazy fast,
but it's fast enough to stop most things.
So should be able to take as many shots
like that. Boom like that, okay one more
with your hair fixed. And looking at me...
that's what we can use as a thumbnail,
get lots of views, there we go!
Good, perfect,
nice, and of course I'm raw, so I can do
you know whatever I like, if I want to
come in and mess with it, okay. So that
looks cool, so now what we'll do is, we'll
shoot a few more. So we have a good
thumbnail, so you guys will watch this.
Well they were already are watching,
whatever... alright, so here we go I'm going
to focus you know, take couple shots.
Nice, like that, as easy as that. Nice oh yeah.
I like what you did there, so you look
down and then she looked up, that's like
a good technique.
I'm gonna look down and
then I'll look up you have the same
problem that I have with the hair except
you have more of it. My hair does that
too. My eyes, okay, so well yeah.
As you can see, at 250 right, 'cause we want to
catch the action, wanna do all this stuff,
but again going back to the original
concept here...
like why would you want to
or well should photographers maybe use
constant light sources?
This is a really good example.
it's like sometimes you're
gonna want to shoot some video.. you know?
Whether it being interview or some like
I said, and some time you're gonna want
shoot stills, and by doing it together
you don't set two sets of equipment, you
know you don't have to, you know look
around. Double the amount of stuff have
two setups, and move people around
especially if you're by yourself. So it
really can help, are there advantages to
using each thing,
sure, but sometimes having something that
can do everything for you can be really
good to have.
So we're gonna put Casey's
info in the description, make sure you
follow her. Thanks for watching, be sure
