Hello and welcome back to my channel!
-
I'm very excited about today's video.
-
It's a topic that I have wanted to do for
a very long time.
-
We're talking about lighting.
-
I'm going to give you ideas for
different lighting setups.
-
We're in a pretty small space.
So, keep that in mind.
-
You are not limited by the size of room
that you're in.
-
But first, before, we get into the meat
of this video
-
I would like to take a moment to thank
today's sponsor [meow] smart home.
-
So, we'll be using their devices to help
-
us make these lighting setups
-
more convenient and intuitive.
-
You'll see what I mean in just a sec
so let's get into it.
-
We set everything up for this particular
lighting setup yesterday
-
because we just wanted to get ahead
-
so, unfortunately there is no BTS of how
we set this up but I am going to
-
walk you through exactly what we're using
to light this beautiful scene
-
that you're seeing right now.
-
The coolest thing about this setup is that
most of what we're using as light sources,
-
you probably already have at home.
-
So our first light, our key light--
-
Thanks Luna.
-
As I was saying, our first light,
our key light,
-
is actually the beautiful window that
I am facing right now.
-
So it's a little bit sunnier in here today
-
than it was yesterday when we originally
set it up. It was way more overcast
-
yesterday and that was giving us a beautiful diffused, soft light on my face and that's typically what I love about natural light is it is really flattering, especially when it is an overcast day because it's already adding that natural diffusion.
-
But today, because it's much more harsh, and usually it is in this room in the morning; it's very very sunny so we've added a diffusion panel.
-
If you don't have something like this at home, you can repurpose a sheer curtain, you can use a sheet off of your bed.
-
Anything white and sheer that's a little bit opaque that'll allow you to just nicely diffuse that light source on your face.
-
So, you don't necessarily need to go to Amazon and buy your own diffusion panel if you don't want to.
-
Next, behind me we've got some practicals lit.

We have our own lamp that--

I love this lamp. It
