    This is the first video I've seen where the shadows change with distance. I thought that distance meant diffusion and gave soft shadows, and close light was more "straight" and gave hard shadows; but it's the other way around. In my experience I've tried to make hard shadows with small single powerful light sources. Is distance a better solution? Thanks for the content!
  • When you move further away actually its not diffuse and make the shadow harsher.. its because of the angle and the size of the light or modifier.. if tou move it further away you need to adjust the angle of the light a bit to the front
  • Why use silk because back in the days Arri light dont have bowens mount
  • How many takes do you think I flubbed "C-Stand Silk"? Ok, real question of the week: what is your favorite movie with lots of unmotivated lighting?
