But what is it about these continuous lights that make them so appealing? Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n<h2>What is LED lighting?<\/h2>\n<p>LED stands for light-emitting diode. For the diode to emit light, an electrical current must pass through semiconductor material.<\/p>\n<p>LED light sources are much more energy-efficient and, therefore, physically cooler and smaller than their incandescent equivalents. They are also far more versatile and adaptable than traditional tungsten, fluorescent or HMI light sources.<\/p>\n<h2>Types of LED lights for filmmaking<\/h2>\n<p>LED lights for filmmaking are available in different shapes, sizes and types.<\/p>\n<h3>The panel<\/h3>\n<p>First, come\u00a0<strong>panel<\/strong>\u00a0LED lights. These are rows of individual LEDs arranged to form a single source. They can be large or small and are used to create lots of soft light. Panels are widely available, and some are very affordable. At the top end, you can purchase ultra-thin and flexible LED panels that can be manipulated into small and complicated spaces.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/661175041?muted=1&amp;autoplay=1&amp;loop=1&amp;autopause=0\" width=\"800\" height=\"384\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>The tube<\/h3>\n<p>LED\u00a0<strong>tubes<\/strong>\u00a0comprise a row or rows of LEDs inside a tube. They resemble fluorescent tube lighting and are great for creating effects.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/681907552?muted=1&amp;autoplay=1&amp;loop=1&amp;autopause=0\" width=\"800\" height=\"384\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>The ring light<\/h3>\n<p>LED\u00a0<strong>ring lights<\/strong>\u00a0are hugely versatile and come at a wide variety of price points.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/new-blog.artlist.io\/blog\/what-is-a-ring-light\/\">Ring lights<\/a>\u00a0are simple options for vlogging and video calls but also great for beauty work, product shoots and macro videos.<\/p>\n<h3>The fresnel<\/h3>\n<p>One type of light where LEDs used to fall short was with<strong>\u00a0fresnel lights<\/strong>, but this has now improved. Directional LED\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/new-blog.artlist.io\/blog\/fresnel-lights\/\">fresnel lights<\/a>\u00a0are now available and can switch between creating spot and floodlighting without throwing out lots of heat like their HMI equivalents did.<\/p>\n<p>You can apply\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/new-blog.artlist.io\/blog\/the-ultimate-guide-to-light-modifiers\/\">lighting modifiers<\/a>, for example, softboxes or barn doors, to LED\u00a0<strong>fixture lights<\/strong>, offering you the flexibility of directional lighting or floodlights.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/682454862?muted=1&amp;autoplay=1&amp;loop=1&amp;autopause=0\" width=\"800\" height=\"384\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Practicals<\/h3>\n<p>If you like to use\u00a0<strong>practical lights<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/new-blog.artlist.io\/blog\/5-tips-for-using-small-lights-on-a-set\/\">small lights<\/a>\u00a0as a part of your lighting setup, you\u2019ll find that LED lights are increasing in availability, too. These provide you with lots of color options and are often remote controllable, too.<\/p>\n<h2>Pros and cons of LED lights<\/h2>\n<h3>Pros<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>LED movie lights are very\u00a0<strong>easy to use<\/strong>!<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Easily adjustable<\/strong>: While other cinema lights tend to be warm (tungsten) or daylight and have to be adjusted using gels, LED lights can have their\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/new-blog.artlist.io\/blog\/color-temperature\/\">color temperature<\/a>\u00a0altered at the touch of a button along the Kelvin scale. You can switch from candlelight to daylight in a flash.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Energy efficient<\/strong>: LED lights are more energy-efficient than incandescent lights and can produce far more intense light while drawing down much less power.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Staying cool: Incandescent lights convert a great deal of power into heat, not just light. This is wasteful, dangerous and can be uncomfortable. LED movie lights, on the other hand, don\u2019t run hot. So you can focus on lighting up rather than heating up your set.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Portable<\/strong>: The energy efficiency of LED cinema lights makes them ideal for shooting on location as they do not require hefty generators and can even run off battery power.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Manageable<\/strong>: You can light small spaces easily or create lots of light with small sources using LED lights. They are much more manageable than traditional lighting options.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Durable<\/strong>: Traditional light sources can be quite delicate. They are prone to failure if dropped or might explode if they contact oil. This isn\u2019t the case for LED lights that are durable and generally reliable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>\u00a0Cons<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Flicker<\/strong>: Sometimes, LED light sources can produce a flickering effect in your footage. This tends to happen when you are shooting with a dimmed LED light. You can prevent flicker by shooting with an undimmed light and using modifiers to adjust its intensity instead.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Color quality<\/strong>: Some LED lights (cheaper models) can cast disagreeable colors.\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"124\" class=\"elementor elementor-124\"

vs. tungsten<\/h2>\n<p>Tungsten lights are warm in color and can grow physically hot. In addition, they require a lot of energy to throw out the light you need for any kind of filmmaking. And tungsten lights can be fragile.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, LED lights can be warm in color, but you can also program them to have a cooler tone. They don\u2019t get hot, and they are energy-efficient and durable.<\/p>\n<p>LED lights come in different fixtures, making them versatile as well as economical. They are also portable, and their reduced power consumption makes them ideal for use on location.<\/p>\n<h2>When to use LED lights<\/h2>\n<p>You can use LED lights for a simple\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/new-blog.artlist.io\/blog\/lighting-youtube-videos-a-beginners-guide\/\">YouTube lighting setup<\/a>\u00a0or a traditional\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/new-blog.artlist.io\/blog\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-3-point-lighting-setup\/\">3-point lighting setup<\/a>. Their ability to throw out lots of light from a small source makes them ideal for macro projects as well as high-key work. They are also useful when shooting in confined spaces, whether that\u2019s a small set or you want to effectively conceal a small but powerful light source, or when you don\u2019t have the ability to transport lots of gear.<\/p>\n<p>A particular benefit of LED video lights is their reduced power demands relative to other types of cinema lighting and their ability to run off a battery supply. This makes them especially suitable for filming on location when you would otherwise need to organize a generator, as well as documentary and run-and-gun projects.<\/p>\n<h2>When not to use LED lights<\/h2>\n<p>There aren\u2019t many situations where cinema LED lights won\u2019t do the job you need. However, be careful if you\u2019re shooting off 60hz AC power and your frame rate or shutter angle falls out of sync: you will notice a flicker. You can avoid this by shooting off of DC battery power.<\/p>\n<p>Dimmed LED lights can also create a flicker in your output. Rather than dim your LED lights, use a modifier to reduce their intensity instead.<\/p>\n<h2>Wrap up<\/h2>\n<p>LED cinema lights are an enormous benefit for filmmakers. Their versatility and portability, combined with being cost-effective and not throwing out lots of heat, make them a huge step forward from combining incandescent, fluorescent and HMI light sources. So if you\u2019re looking to spend some money on lighting, definitely investigate what LED lighting can bring to your vlogging and filmmaking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LED lighting is becoming increasingly popular for vloggers and YouTubers, content creators and filmmakers.
