Brick Film School! Episode 2: Basic Lighting

This is a break down of the most basic lighting for bricks. 3-point lighting. Perhaps later I will do another, more advanced lighting setup.

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.

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.

[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.

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

@georgeio09 lol is that a joke cause its f***ing hillarious!

[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.
