How to Light a Scene with Candlelight

Learn how to light a scene with candlelight and make it look beautiful and realistically lit by candles only. Lighting with candles is actually pretty simple once you know the basics. Candles have a warm color temperature usually around 1800 to 2000 kelvin. Adding candles to your scene can make it look very cinematic and interesting. Candles aren’t just for pieces set back in the time of castles and knights. Candlelight is also used in post apocalyptic shows, romances and so many other genres! Using candlelight to light your scenes, short films and other videos is pretty easy. Often times you can add extra film lights to help augment the candle light and make it look brighter and motivated. We also show you how to get a natural flicker effect from candles in your scene, the same flicker effect can be used for fires as well. #candlelight #lighting #cinematography GEAR SEEN IN THIS VIDEO: 5-in-1 Reflector http://geni.us/Reflector ETC Source 4 http://geni.us/SourceFour LED Light Panels http://geni.us/PaUpW1 CTB Gels http://geni.us/RoscoGels ___________________________________________ SUBSCRIBE NOW & SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON!! ___________________________________________ ===GEAR USED IN MY VIDEOS== ___CAMERAS___ Sony a7s http://geni.us/SonyA7s Sony a6500 http://geni.us/kn4D DJI Phantom 3 Pro http://geni.us/Phantom3Pro ___LENSES___ Rokinon 14mm http://geni.us/Rokinon14 Rokinon 50mm http://geni.us/Rokinon50mm Sony 35mm http://geni.us/JM4Wvj Tamron 24-70mm http://geni.us/TamronZoom Tamron 70-200mm http://geni.us/Tamron200 Sigma 16mm http://geni.us/Sigma16 ___CANON TO SONY E MOUNT___ Cheapest Adapter http://geni.us/CheapAdapter Auto-Focus Adapter http://geni.us/GreatAdapter Variable ND Adapter http://geni.us/NDAdapter ___MONITORS___ SmallHD Focus Monitor http://geni.us/Focus SmallHD Focus Monitor Hood http://geni.us/SunHood Cheap 7″ Monitor http://geni.us/GoodMonitor ___MICS___ Rode Videomic Pro http://geni.us/RodeShotgun Rodelink Wireless Lavs http://geni.us/WirelessLav Rode NT1A http://geni.us/CondenserMic ___LIGHTS___ Portable LED http://geni.us/PortableLED LED Light Panels http://geni.us/PaUpW1 ETC Source 4 http://geni.us/SourceFour Popup Diffuser http://geni.us/Diffuser C-Stand http://geni.us/Cstand 5-in-1 Reflector http://geni.us/Reflector ___STABILIZATION___ Zhiyun Crane V2 http://geni.us/CraneV2 Manfrotto Monopod http://geni.us/GoodMonopod Manfrotto Tripod http://geni.us/GoodTripod iFootage Shark Slider http://geni.us/Slider _________________________________________ LET’S CONNECT Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chadwin Twitter: https://twitter.com/Chadwin_s Facebook https://www.facebook.com/acrylicstudios Website: https://www.acrylicstudios.net/ _________________________________________ Music licensed through Soundstripe https://soundstripe.grsm.io/ChadwinSmith *affiliate links above may contribute a very small commission to help support the channel and new content creation.
