When it comes to using tube lights in your video work, it can be easy to think that something longer is just for show - what are you gonna do with such a long tube anyway, apart from using it as decoration? But actually, if we think about the ways we can use a long strip of light to our advantage, we're able to employ it in a few different situations. We take a look at some of the ways we can do this with the Godox TL180. I'm one of Samyang's UK brand ambassadors - which means I shoot most of my work with the Samyang VDSLR MK2 Cine lens kit. In this video we used: Samyang 14mm t/3.1 VDSLR MK2 Samyang 24mm t/1.5 VDSLR MK2 Samyang 35mm t/1.5 VDSLR MK2 Samyang 50mm t/1.5 VDSLR MK2 Samyang 85mm t/1.5 VDSLR MK2 Cameras: Blackmagic Cinema Camera 2.5K Blackmagic Production Camera 4K Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro Lights used in the video: Godox TL180 - https://www.godox.com/product-b/TL180.html Video Contents: 0:00 - Just for Show? 0:55 - Not Enough Space! 1:56 - The Godox TL180 - A 6 Foot Tube Light 2:22 - 6 Foot Tube Lights in a Tight Space 3:39 - Replicating Window Light 5:14 - The Lighting Qualities of Tubes 5:58 - Subtle Evening Light 8:08 - Long Tubes as a Practical 9:31 - Support My Channel/Get Extended Videos
