Brick Film School! Episode 2: Basic Lighting

[crazylegoproductions]

My webcam gives off a bad quality, and lighting doesn't change it.

[vivorproductions]

My camera has it's own lighting system where it gives off light itself.

[KujeBear]

what program do you use for editing and stuff??????????

[rha523]

Best lighting tutorial ever

[PhilipLackey42]

U have that exact lamp!

[blitzzballace]

dude are you trying to f***ing blind us!



[Froiproductions]

If I light mine like a movie, the camera exposure gets messed up for me!!! :(

[six6pocket]

sweet now i know how to get good lighting

[JimA73]

im having trouble on one thing when i do my brickfilms i use an LED light but when i go threw my pictures the light quality changes its really annoying and do u think u could help?

[cannedgravy]

@JimA73 advice: Don't use LED. They pulse. And camera shutters will not be consistant. Instead go with Icandescent or halligan bulbs. Some florescents are fine too. LED=BAD. thanks for bring it up though.

[JimA73]

@cannedgravy thanks!, thanks so much!!

[rodrigovideos23]

2:17 FAIL :D

[HoScaleGeek]

It's very good news that those very powerful lamps are not needed in a small stop motion environment. I was considering buying one or two.

[BadMaRkC33]

there was a condon to hold up the light hahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

[legomutiny1447]

Can you help me with adding effects?

[91pancakes]

can you help me with a Bright sunny day

[altweirdcool]

I need help with lighting, i have 2 lamps, one is natural light (orangy glow) and another one is a bright ish one. I blacked out all my windows and I still get alot of flickr can you help? One of the reasons is the crappy fame capture program and i have a quickcampro 9000 for mac which is autofocus. Are there any GOOD free fram capture programs for mac? I use frame by frame

[wafflemonster8]

ok this is A REALLY IMPORTANT question:when i make my films sometimes the light is too bright and it glares the scene, i got these shaded bulbs, but it did not really fix the problem. any sugestions????? pls reply! =D

[vinmaster25]

LOL did u burn urself at 2:18 

[beeniestudios]

hey... could you tell me how to fix this problem i have... sometimes during filming, the lighting (when i look through camera view) goes a bright yellow and orange color, and then i have a lot of light flicker. do you know how to fix all this?

[cannedgravy]

@beeniestudios it could be auto white balance or auto AE. Make sure everything is set to manual on the camera. See if that fixes it.

[GTAwesome]

whens episode 3 :(( i need help

[benzijr]

Why is there a giant blue screen .

[steffywok]

More please!

[MGMCHANDLER]

Can you make a part 3? I am really eager to find out ore helpful tips for making LEGO videos.

[SpeakingJargon]

Surprisingly insightful. I look forward to more.

[chazzers77]

PLEASE upload part 3 soon!!!!

[Geertos13]

Isn't there going to be a part 3 ? :(

[marinmaker]

this is really awesome!, its very helpfull and interesting.

the trick with the folded paper is really nifty! thanks for the cool video!

[PickleProductionsLtd]

Thanks for this tutorial. I've been looking for brickfilm lighting tips everywhere, and none have been as useful as this one.

[TikiChibi]

Thanks for the tips I find these tutorials very useful. Are you going to do one on matching animation with audio? I find that the hardest thing to do.

[csavoy1]

or you could just color correct in AE. But this works too.

[cannedgravy]

@csavoy1 haha yes, but that's a bad habit to get into. "fixing it in post" is one of the worst and most expensive way to solve issues. Plus I haven't got into After Effects which is too expensive for most people and requires advanced computer knowledge.

[Geertos13]

@cannedgravy You don't use Special effects ? What do you use then to make these fantastic special effects and chromakey ?

[odObo01]

Great video- iv heard of the 3point lighting thing but it's totally different to actually see it- plus the paper thing was genius :D

[onelegostudio]

The black desk lamp looks like the one in pixar movie intros :))

[JRPictureProductions]

Cool, like the paper trick.

[Geertos13]

Yeah these arer really great ! Love the Paper tip :)

[apauscata]

i love the trick with the paper

nice work

[JSAirways]

what if ure camera just SUCKS!? On the screen of my camera, the lighting looks perfect! But once I take the picture, the camera adds even more white to the picture and then it looks horrible!! Any suggestions? cause I can't afford to buy a new camera...

[hagen552]

@JSAirways What camera do you use?

[mymichellegunsnroses]

@JSAirways try wo/blitz? =3

[1Orangeyoshi1]

Anywayz, thanks for this, it will most likely help a lot...

[Geoshi]
