Do you rely on natural lighting for your videos to look their best? I personally think that videos look amazing in natural lighting. I really don't like to film in low light, unless I really don't have a choice. The benefits of natural lighting are that people tend to watch videos with bright lighting, rather than dark, and videos just look better. Normally, I wouldn't care, but I prefer that my videos be seen nowadays since well....I want people to see my creativity. :) Anyway! What kind of lighting do you rely on in your own videos? Natural lighting, low light? Or does it even matter to you? :)

Well I really like natural lighting, but I also like the light bulbs that give off a white light (not yellowish) if I'm inside and there isn't any windows nearby. My camera does pretty well in low-light so I usually don't have to worry about it too much though. It also depend on what I'm filming, becuase if I'm doing stop-motion which I like doing I use a light bulb so the light doesn't flicker in the pictures, but If I'm filming myself I try to use sunlight.
