    After watching this, it makes me appreciate the short even more. Also, it gives me more faith in my ability as an actor who creates his own work that shots cant always be achieved in 5 takes. Im gonna apply some of what i learned from this and apply to both my directing work and acting. Hopefully I can fly out to the states one day and work with you one day, who knows :D

    filmmaking excites me so bad. i can't wait to move back to my homeland and work as a filmmaker!. i wrote to a producer to pitch my script, i'm goddamn excited and confident. there isn't a lot of filmmakers in Greenland and if they are, they are either producers who can't finish their movies or they are shit filmmakers and i don't like shit filmmakers (very sorry that i'm being honest, but i feel like there could be better movies in Greenland). great video Brit!

    I find this channel to be one of the most informative and interesting ones to teach me, a long-time playwright and now a screenwriter the fundamentals of filmmaking. I made a few shorts when I was in college, (a long time ago) but now I am determined to put a lot more of my work on film. I am aiming to shoot a feature length this winter, of course with help but with the information from Darius, I will shock my crew when they see that I know what the heck I am talking about. Thank you Darius.

    It would be great if you did a video where you discussed how you label/name your shots like '444-1 Take 2' etc. Also, how you tie the audio from the Zoom H1 back to the video, given that you have 2 sources and so many scenes. Maybe it's part of a future video and I should just be patient! With that said, hurry up and publish!!!

    • @jas_bataille
      @jas_bataille 5 років тому

      He said in the beginning that this way of numbering the shots didn't worked and that he wasn't explain it because it's too confusing... as for the audio I guess he's just clapping or asking one of the actor to clap.

I'm still considered armature however being hands on, staying busy, and being in full time prison ministry keep me inspired to write, create and produce short film projects thanks again Brit, and for all the thumps down or negative comments you may get from time to time I prayer it all still work in your favor.

    @peteskyrunner4845 3 роки тому

    I have an idea for a short film and it will be my first so I've been watching a lot of shorts and a few behind the scenes for inspiration and guidance but man this is the best I have seen! You go in to such detail for such a short video. My set up will be nowhere near as elaborate (just ambient light outside and a Sony A6400) but I will still take away a lot of useful tips. I like the way you try out different shots (and so many) on the fly to just see what works rather than just shooting planned shots. One thing I'm quite pleased about is when you bounced a light off the living room ceiling I though 'that's too bright it's overpowering the window light' and later you turned it down for that reason (my photography experience I guess). Subbed and liked and looking forward to watching the rest of 'Shooting a film, start to finish.' The actors were great too :-)

    Micro managing and actor exhaustion through obsessive takes will always hurt the film.
    Trust your actors and maybe learn about that sweet performance spot (on the 3rd-5th take)
    Biggest lesson I've learnt, is what you want to visually capture doesn't necessarily mean its the best shot

    I really admire your work and passion. I'd love you to make a video about GoPro's (using them as filming tools beyond sports.) Thnks! Cheers from a mexican fan.
