How to have ideal lighting for better video
Film & Theater • Lighting
The term "ideal lighting" may sound pretentious, but we're not here to impose style. Lighting is ideal when it does not conflict with your finished product; because post-production will not fix everything. Don't expect to Photoshop your movie as you would a photograph. At best, poor lighting can be bandaged in post; but the wound remains in the form of degraded video, like excess noise.
At the end of the episode, we talk about guerrilla filmmaking, and so decided to shoot ourselves talking inside of a Starbuck's. Please excuse the audio, as we only had one RF microphone (those suckers are expensive).
