L04: Applying cinematic lighting techniques

Here I am setting up the tripod and camera so that I can set specific measurements based on the lighting outside when we leave, this allows me to have my settings almost ready for shooting rather than taking more time setting up when meeting up with the artist. I am using a Canon 500D set to manual, this allows me to bring the scene into focus by hand, I also used an aperture of f/1.4 to let more light pass through and an auto iso setting from the camera.

Here are two clips from my short film/documentary where I only used natural lighting produced from sunlight while being outside.
