1
00:00:03,019 --> 00:00:05,140
What I'm going to do here is a
2
00:00:05,140 --> 00:00:07,920
shoot through with off-camera flash combined with
3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:09,120
a silhouette up on the sky.
4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,760
So what drew me in here of course
5
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,560
was trying to find a vantage point where
6
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,340
I could shoot up into the into the
7
00:00:15,340 --> 00:00:17,700
bright sky and silhouette my couple but also
8
00:00:17,700 --> 00:00:19,220
fill the frame with lots of cool branches.
9
00:00:19,740 --> 00:00:21,500
So I started by just doing a straightforward
10
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:25,060
silhouette on the sky framed within these branches
11
00:00:25,060 --> 00:00:27,640
and now just to try I'm going to
12
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,360
add because there's no light obviously on these
13
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,680
branches right now I'm going to add a
14
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,140
light source, flash the foreground and maybe that's
15
00:00:35,140 --> 00:00:37,000
going to be a cool interesting effect.
16
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,180
So I'm going to put a transmitter on
17
00:00:39,180 --> 00:00:42,360
my camera okay I'm going to keep it
18
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:43,840
turned off right now just to make sure
19
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,840
my ambience where I want it and I've
20
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,860
got my flash and I'm also putting a
21
00:00:47,860 --> 00:00:50,140
really warm gel on there okay because I
22
00:00:50,140 --> 00:00:51,960
think it might look cool with some warmth
23
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:52,560
in these branches.
24
00:00:53,660 --> 00:00:55,860
So again now I just have to make
25
00:00:55,860 --> 00:00:57,780
sure that I'm within 1 200th of a
26
00:00:57,780 --> 00:01:01,520
second which I am and I don't want
27
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,760
these branches to be overly sharp so if
28
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,440
I can figure out how to shoot at
29
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,340
a lower f-stop.
30
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,320
So what I'm going to do that's about
31
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:14,860
as dark as I can go there.
32
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,080
So I'm at ISO 100 1 200th of
33
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,480
a second and f16 so the couple is
34
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,800
silhouetted and just go back into that forehead
35
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,580
to forehead pose for me guys a little
36
00:01:28,580 --> 00:01:34,080
bit of separation though okay I'm going to
37
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,880
focus on the couple recompose find that little
38
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,040
window okay so now what I'm going to
39
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,400
do is I'm going to turn my transmitter
40
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:50,330
on I'm going to position my flash and
41
00:01:50,330 --> 00:01:53,850
turn it on I'm just going to start
42
00:01:53,850 --> 00:01:56,150
around mid power and see what happens.
43
00:01:56,890 --> 00:01:58,770
I don't know where I want the light
44
00:01:58,770 --> 00:02:00,270
I could have the light coming from above
45
00:02:00,270 --> 00:02:02,590
from the side or beneath we'll see what
46
00:02:02,590 --> 00:02:03,930
happens if I just put it down here
47
00:02:03,930 --> 00:02:06,770
I've got this the flash head zoomed all
48
00:02:06,770 --> 00:02:08,470
the way out because I want to try
49
00:02:08,470 --> 00:02:09,770
to light as many of these branches as
50
00:02:09,770 --> 00:02:11,390
I can and I'm shooting at about 18
51
00:02:11,390 --> 00:02:12,890
millimeter focal length right now.
52
00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:17,370
Okay so let's see what happens now do
53
00:02:17,370 --> 00:02:21,290
a test shot I'm at f16 so I'm
54
00:02:21,290 --> 00:02:23,630
not too stressed about getting the focus perfect
55
00:02:26,170 --> 00:02:30,650
okay I'm just going to eyeball this okay
56
00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:32,230
almost nothing I got to turn that flash
57
00:02:32,230 --> 00:02:42,220
all the way up 4a
58
00:02:42,220 --> 00:02:43,840
so I'm going to crank it all the
59
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:51,420
way up full power now and if that
60
00:02:51,420 --> 00:03:03,160
doesn't work we'll try repositioning it okay
61
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,740
we're getting there I don't love these leaves
62
00:03:05,740 --> 00:03:07,500
let me get these ones out of there
63
00:03:10,340 --> 00:03:12,080
and I don't love the angle of the
64
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,400
light I think I would rather have it
65
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:25,350
coming maybe from above there
66
00:03:27,750 --> 00:03:31,790
we go perfect perfect all right I've got
67
00:03:31,790 --> 00:03:36,310
gels all over the place hang tight there
68
00:03:36,310 --> 00:03:40,350
guys I've actually got two gels stacked in
69
00:03:40,350 --> 00:03:42,510
there so I'm just gonna that's why this
70
00:03:42,510 --> 00:03:43,890
fell apart I'm going to drop it down
71
00:03:43,890 --> 00:03:46,110
to one so it won't be quite as
72
00:03:46,110 --> 00:03:52,110
warm and what I'll do is just try
73
00:03:52,110 --> 00:03:54,370
to find the angle of light that I
74
00:03:54,370 --> 00:04:05,910
like so let's just try no
75
00:04:05,910 --> 00:04:07,690
I don't like that you know what um
76
00:04:07,690 --> 00:04:09,510
do I have a light stand no do
77
00:04:09,510 --> 00:04:13,610
I have an Erica Erica I need you
78
00:04:13,610 --> 00:04:15,329
to hold the flash for me I'm not
79
00:04:15,329 --> 00:04:16,890
loving the angle of light when it was
80
00:04:16,890 --> 00:04:18,970
coming from down it was just flat and
81
00:04:18,970 --> 00:04:22,410
boring I wanted to be backlighting these branches
82
00:04:22,410 --> 00:04:24,330
ideally so I actually want it over there
83
00:04:24,330 --> 00:04:29,130
kind of aimed in towards my lens can
84
00:04:29,130 --> 00:04:31,510
you just if you just had the light
85
00:04:31,510 --> 00:04:34,830
coming in from over here um backlighting these
86
00:04:34,830 --> 00:04:40,970
all of these branches here okay and I
87
00:04:40,970 --> 00:04:42,630
need all the power we can get so
88
00:04:42,630 --> 00:04:43,850
we got to get it nice and close
89
00:04:44,870 --> 00:04:46,990
uh don't mind how it's kind of in
90
00:04:46,990 --> 00:04:51,210
the frame can you hide it behind like
91
00:04:51,210 --> 00:04:59,490
the branches a bit no I need more
92
00:04:59,490 --> 00:05:07,460
now it's getting blocked okay that's pretty good
93
00:05:07,460 --> 00:05:10,620
okay that's that's good right there all right
94
00:05:10,620 --> 00:05:16,540
now we're going to fix the composition there
95
00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:21,220
it is all right guys side profiles looking
96
00:05:21,220 --> 00:05:26,820
good I still have some shots here okay
97
00:05:26,820 --> 00:05:29,940
just hold that yeah maybe try to bring
98
00:05:29,940 --> 00:05:31,540
it um I see a little bit more
99
00:05:31,540 --> 00:05:34,200
light Erica and I'm gonna go a little
100
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,920
bit darker on the ambient so I'm gonna
101
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:43,040
go up to f20 and I'm looking at
102
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,460
I really like the separation between um between
103
00:05:46,460 --> 00:05:49,360
Jenny's hair behind it's giving good shape to
104
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:54,410
that these side profiles can you reach that
105
00:05:58,950 --> 00:06:02,070
okay here we go guys here we go
106
00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:08,540
really making sure I've got separation all around
107
00:06:08,540 --> 00:06:14,640
their heads their silhouettes from the branches all
108
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:19,420
right okay good all right so it's kind
109
00:06:19,420 --> 00:06:20,700
of hard to see guys but just you
110
00:06:20,700 --> 00:06:22,200
know what I was trying to do there
111
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,080
wow there's a bunch of things there so
112
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:37,700
you just uh yeah so I had um
113
00:06:37,700 --> 00:06:39,280
right away though I'll let you I'll just
114
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,140
I'll just be completely honest and let you
115
00:06:41,140 --> 00:06:43,160
know that as soon as I started using
116
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,680
the flash and looking at the the results
117
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,160
I realized you know what I actually preferred
118
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,160
the silhouette um and that's something that you
119
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,780
know we're constantly struggling with is knowing when
120
00:06:53,780 --> 00:06:56,500
to give up on something and or how
121
00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:58,500
long or how hard to work and sometimes
122
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:00,260
it's worth it right sometimes it's worth not
123
00:07:00,260 --> 00:07:02,180
settling and trying to perfect it but other
124
00:07:02,180 --> 00:07:06,120
times it's not um often Erica's my she's
125
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:07,760
my uh safety check for that she'll often
126
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,000
come in and she'll look at the camera
127
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,580
she'll be like no this is not worth
128
00:07:10,580 --> 00:07:13,200
it let's go do something better um and
129
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,020
that's like you know there's no formula there
130
00:07:16,020 --> 00:07:17,520
it's just it's a feeling I guess it's
131
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,960
just take the take the time to just
132
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,240
ask yourself like is this worth it in
133
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,980
some cases it is and if that's the
134
00:07:22,980 --> 00:07:25,140
case like like perfect it and make it
135
00:07:25,140 --> 00:07:27,020
as good as you can or move on
136
00:07:27,020 --> 00:07:29,360
to something that's going to be um that's
137
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,640
going to be better honestly I would have
138
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,020
just settled I would have just gone back
139
00:07:33,020 --> 00:07:34,180
and made sure I got a great silhouette
140
00:07:34,180 --> 00:07:35,800
there and then move on
