How to Film Cinematic Video Outdoors – Cinematography Tutorial
Are you curious on how you can shoot better video outdoors with natural light, without having to purchase expensive gear? In this cinematography tutorial, I will show how I shoot my outdoor scenes using only natural light. This tutorial breaks down my thought process and how I direct and use the tools I have to craft a cinematic image.
Don’t be obsessed with filmmaking gear. It’s all about how you use what you have. Shooting cinematic video has never been easier than before. Focus on the positioning of your subject and understand where your light sources are at.
Using the sun as a great natural light source will allow you to create a variety of moods. If you shoot in the shade, you will have a lot of control over the contrast and your subject will retain great detail. Shooting near the sun will allow you to use it as a silhouette. During twilight, expose for the greatest amount of detail in the frame.
Shooting cinematic video outdoors has never been easier before. Remember that exposure, positioning, and knowing where the light is at, will all help you to producing a beautiful cinematic image!

How to Film Cinematic Video Outdoors: shoot at golden hour
Hey I am looking to make a slideshow with photos and videos in AE. It’s part of a longer trailer, and my theme is fire. I have been trying a lot of things, but just can’t seem to land the perfect ‘fiery’ slideshow. Can you make a tutorial for such a slideshow, please?
Nice 👍👍👍
What would I do if I’m filming a wedding and it’s mid day really harsh sunlight and no shade. I had this situation recently and I had to just bump up my aperture so I was shooting at f14 bc I didn’t want my shutterspeed to effect the video, was that the best solution?
good job
Very nice. But what camera(s) did you use?
Like!!
Nice bro
any small film makers out there who want to support each other?
He finally admits his CoD past.
We knew he was a gamer!
great vid, but in the scene from 0:23 the sunlight would clip in most cameras unless you lowered the exposure making the talent underexposed.
