Changed the camera angle. Tried 30 different ways of lighting it. This is what I finally came up with. What do you think? I really feel like it's time to move on now haha. I think this looks pretty good!

Getting VERY tired of smoothies. Hoping to try some solid foods this weekend :)

If I keep working even more on the lighting and camera setup, feel free to shout at me in the comments. Time to actually finish this thing :)

Whoa… hd game strong.. that depth of field makes you look like you’re floating a bit 😅 And next step up for food.. mashed foods.. mashed potatoes. Açaí bowls, avocados, bananas… the soft world of grandpa food is your domain now.. congrats!! 😂

Lianne Conroy

The background kind of looks too dark and it's like you're green screened onto it. It looks a little weird. But I kind of like it

Mari

Coloring looks nice on this screengrab! I got Flux.. as for it being better, the jury is still out 🤷‍♀️ I will keep you updated lol that halo effect doeeee 🙌

Shiny

It’s visually interesting without being too busy. I like the pops of colour in amongst the monochromatic shades. Nice work 😊

Becky Lorion

I really like the lighting, like how the background looks too. This will be a good one!

Roomie

huh interesting. I got the tip to have the background darker by a videographer friend of mine, apparently it's good practice so you get serparation

Roomie

Ngl I don't think my heart can take much more of this so I might reuse this setup a bit :P

Airyckah Lane

That’s true.. birthday is coming up… gonna need that new hip soon.. you’re already losing teeth 😂🤣

JustSomeJK

To me it looks really good, so yeah move on! 😁 Can't wait to hear more music from u and see the video for the Good with my hands and for the other voice message songs 🙂 I hope u have a great weekend with some tasty food 🙂 💙 Godnatt 😊

Lianne Conroy

I think part of it is the juxtaposition between the back lighting behind you and then like the plants being lit only on the top and not in the bottom or something just looks a little weird

Jen 🦙

The angle is great, step away from the adjustments! 😊 That said, I’m someone who’s easily distracted so, feel free to move little bits and pieces in the background throughout the video keep yourself amused 😂

Magalie Leplus

Go, go bro !!! You're on the right way. Want to see the end result 👏👏👏

Hayley

The eyes are not quite as Bahama blue as usual 😭 But let's face it...you'd look good in any light 😉 I think we're all more invested in your food intake at this point though so remember to report back on that 😂

Clair (Teampanda)

Stop It..Don't make 1 more adjustment!! Like you won't go in for another tweak 🤣 It looks great though, as do you, considering you keep staying up late, whats in those smoothies vegan vampire blood? P.S I wrote a song for your missing teeth it's in your Instagram DM if you get chance to see it 😉

Annelies

Like this background and lighting 😊 I think you should keep wearing the more colorful T-shirts or jackets when you start filming, that makes you pop more 😉 (if that doesn't mean extra work with editing)

Dorie

Wow. You just popped off my screen right now. The colors and lighting look great. Loving the little halo. But that won’t have us fooled. 😝😉

Gayle

It looks really good, thank you 😘😘❤️❤️

Jureth

I think it looks really good ! I really like the background 🥰

Franceska

This looks pretty pretty lol Perfect camera angle, great lights - maybe little to much “halo” light behind your head, it looks a bit “cut out”. Plants 🌱 lit well. Try blue or teal colour tshirts, but red is great as well. Great job with this setup 💪🏼🔥😍

Helga 🦊

Honestly I’m not a fan of that halo effect 🤷🏻‍♀️ Darker background definitely works better for you but too much light around the hair/head gives weird vibes that you’re cut out of one thing and put in there. Idk man

MediocreAtBest

Ooo I really like this one! I think the near symmetry is working, and your jacket kinda plays into that. Would say this is the one to keep and play around with if you want, maybe a softer focus on the background or some twinkle/colored lights, Shrek posters etc. Hope you have a wonderful weekend and can eat some more solid food! Good soup 👌 is only good soup for so long.

Helga 🦊

As for food it’s time to eat some soups 🥣But someone once has told that soup is for old people with no teeth 🙃 oh wait…

Dannielle O'Neill

Then explain something to me... Scrolling through YT shorts out of boredom OG Voices video clips come up... your fave in this video doesn't look a whole year older...let alone SEVEN! DANG IT!!!

Cas

I can feel your haol, halo, halo.

loonylovesgood

Really digging the plants, ngl. Have a great weekend, I’m really excited to see how this video turns out!!

Jennifer Sinquefield King

The light source on the left of the image is a little too harsh- giving the right shadows (look at the shadows on the plants and the side of your face) try a diffuser to spread the light source out or turn down the level on the left and balance the right with the same levels-

Shauna

I was really off put by the halo lighting bc it looks like it’s green screened in but the more i look at this the more i don’t hate it. Idk if that’s good or not lol

Dannielle O'Neill

Joel, It's since 8:15 AM in LA..I hope that means you got some rest! If not STOP IT! Get some rest! Please! P.s. porridge should be ok now if you blend it a little, I think? At least back to a little bit of normal? Hope you have a good day. 🥰

Sugary Magnolia

The halo reminds me of 90s green-screen CGI, but all I'm seeing is a still frame so it could look great in the video! I would worry more about content and less about color - unless this is a good way to stall if you're still working out the content 😄

Mari

He mentioned wanting to do an orange and teal colourway for his studio and buy teal clothes, but with this pic having the plants in the background.. the warm red really compliments them nicely. It'll be interesting to see how he incorporates the orange he wants to add.

Bookdragon 43

Love the symmetry of your lighting setup. So excited for the video!!😊👍👏Have a good weekend

Melissa Rogers

The colors look great, Joel!! Bright (without being “in your face”, too bright), clearly defined. About becoming sick/tired of smoothies…are you able to at least drink some boba tea?! Anyway, I hope you’re feeling better today. 🙏🏻 Now go take a nap, or get to work on your music. Leave the lighting alone!! It looks great the way you have it!! (You asked for it…I’m just doing what you asked us to do. 😁😁)

SpyroShurtagul

I definitely like this setup much better! Looks professional and fantastic!
