Starting with video production can be tough, but you don’t need expensive equipment to create something that looks clean and professional. The best gear is what you have right now.In this class, we’ll focus on creating a single static talking head shot, which is an essential shot for your Skillshare classes, Youtube videos, or Documentary films.I want to arm you with knowledge so you can use whatever you have available to you to record better videos. Even if all you have is a window and a phone, you can use these techniques to create a great-looking shot.
You’ll learn about:
- Color temperature
- What makes a light source hard or soft, and also
- How to position your lights
- How to previsualize your lighting setup so you waste less time on the day of your shoot.
I’ll show you two scenarios: a complete no-budget setup where we’ll use just our phone, natural light, and things you can find around your house, and another setup with a better camera and a budget light kit that won’t break your bank.
