Basics of Lighting - What You Need To Know Before Buying

submitted by AudienceMagnet on 11/14/17 1

Dedicated to new and beginning video creators and filmmakers on knowing what to spend your money on when it comes to lighting. This one was a beast, so I hope it helps you out. Links, time markers and a ton more in the description below. ▼ NOTE: Please excuse the mistake at 10:55 where I refer to CRI as Color Temperature Index. It stands for Color Rendering index.

Seriously? Watch the frickin video! youtu.be/_GuFgjK9pFo Many thanks to Aputure for some of the products used sent to me for review purposes. They do not sponsor me, pay me, or have any input to the opinions I share in this video. In other words, if you say I recommend them because they gave me some equipment, I'll punch you in your internet face. TIME MARKERS: In most browsers, you can click on the time markers below and go directly to that place in the video. If it doesn't work for you, complain to YouTube, not me. :) Exploding Words: 0:25 Light: 0:38 Color of Light: 0:43 Color Temperature: 1:01 White Balance: 1:53 Auto White Balance: 3:33 Quick Color Correction: 4:41 Custom White Balance: 5:05 Recap: 5:26 Lighting: 5:50 Watts: 6:01 Luminance: 6:28 Illluminance: 6:59 Lumens: 7:32 Lux: 7:51 Now You Smart: 9:13 Color for Lighting: 9:54 CRI: 10:51 TLCI: 11:24 Re-re-re-Recap: 12:04 Traditional Lighting: 12:23 My Disclaimer on lights: 12:28 Grip Defined: 13:00 LED Lighting: 13:11 Newer LEDs: 13:45 Aputure COB 300: 14:12 Aputure Mini-20: 14:24 Aputure Tri8: 14:34 Not Sponsored: 14:54 Dimmers: 15:30 Power Options: 15:59 Note on Power Off Lights: 17:26 Beam Angle: 18:24 Fresnels: 19:01 Color Temp Controls: 19:38 Gels: 20:51 Cables: 22:41 Barn Doors: 23:47 Diffusion: 24:36 Stupid Sheet Commercial: 25:53 Light Stands: 26:10 Other Goodies: 26:44 Warranty: 27:42 Conclusion: 28:32 Subscribe Message: 29:09 Outtakes: 29:28 HELP TRANSLATE MY VIDEOS: Yes, I include closed captions on my videos in English, which I gotta say, takes quite a bit of work.
