Blessing #5: I thank God for sunlight!Today,
I filmed a commercial with my group.
We managed to cover most of the scenes by 5,
and we were left with our last few shots.
So we've got our model on the beach..
And it's all bright and sunny..
Lighting's really good,
but we didn't notice that the sunlight was fading,
...because we were too busy talking. -____-
So by the time we realised,
only 40% of our awesome lighting was well,
left.
You can imagine our panic when we realised.
And that was when it hit me,
the importance of
natural lighting.
Cause no matter what we did,
be it flash, shutter speed, ISO and the works,
nothing beats the natural light God gave to us.
And I've known all along how essential natural lighting is in an outdoor filming session and photoshoot,
but its importance only hit me today. :S
Sigh.
I always seem to learn from my own mistakes,
and not others.
But that's okay,
cause I'm still learning, right? :)
Right!
So a little treat for you guys!

barely even an amateur,
so as long as it looks good,
bear with me. :)
Natural lighting is awesome.
