Paul leans way less on “fancy camera” and way more on controlled lighting to get a cinematic look.

From the posts you’ve seen, here’s the core kit he actually uses or talks about:

  • Camera: Sony FX6
  • Lens: 35mm GM (fast prime, great depth and sharpness)
  • Audio: Sennheiser ME64 boom mic
  • Lighting: 3‑light setups – key light on the face, a fill/edge light for depth, and a background/practical light to separate from the wall and add vibe

You don’t need that exact camera to look cinematic, but you do need that kind of lighting control.

What gear are you currently shooting with (camera and lights)?
