I'm so glad to hear that you will be continuing on your adventures and video work and think a video discussing your transistion from quitting school to committing to your passion would add value to nearly everyone's lives and would love to hear about it!
I’ve always wanted to do this exact thing, just traveling and make a story out of filming at like the coolest places around the world. One can only hope. Really inspiring bro.
I am in legit tears that was so good, I have been watching you since your first video and I love how far you have come. Seeing you be amazing at this really inspires me to want to do this!!
I certainly feel you fam. Never would've thought something as small as a camera can change my life and the lives around me so drastically. It's truly a blessing.
Super stoked that your back! Just wanna say that your story for me is super inspiring. You started by just being inspired by all these big UA-camrs/videographers/filmmakers and now they’re you friends! So cool!
i am super inspired by you! ❤ Have been doing filmmaking since more than a year, watching filmmakers like you ,Sam ,nainoa etc have been a major step in my career and has helped me find my true passion! Do keep those videos coming! 🙌
First of all, amazing content, cinematography, editing... everything! Really looking forward to your future videos! A couple of things I would be interested in - what camera + lens did you start out with when first getting into this and learning? Also, when did you make the jump from amateur/hobbyist to trying to do this professionally? I'd love to hear your insights and thoughts into your processes and practices and how you managed to make this transition - something I think all freelance creatives face difficulty with. Best, Danyal.
Super pumped to hear you plan on putting more stuff out on youtube. You were one of my inspirations to get started doing this whole thing over a year ago. No where near your level, but I'm well on my way on my own journey. Loved the shots from Osmena Peak too. Went there in 2016. Keep killing it man!
So excited for you to post more videos! After watching your videos my videos look so lame 😩 I Love washington! Hiked and had many adventures in the year I was there hope my future leads me back to that gorgeous state! I wish you the best with this new year to come and can’t wait to watch your adventures! 🤗
I would love to see the editing process! And more behind the scenes! Like how you color grade, and how you get the shot! So happy you're making more videos!!!
Dude this is really tight. I enjoy the parts where you throw in a bit of humor. Obviously cinematic footage is SAUCE, but always good entertainment value when comedy strikes (plus laughing helps people remember better!). Keep it up man, would love to collab on a project on day.
This is awesome Rob! You have always been so helpful whenever I have asked for your advice on snapchat and I really appreciate that. I would love to maybe see a little behind the scenes video that shows how you capture these amazing shots and some tips that could help someone starting up such as myself.
Nice to see you here! Nice first video Rob! Can not wait to see videos from Nimibia! I will start make videos too just still need buy some camera gear and then I will be ready to wor full speed and have fun with my stupid ideas. Thumbs up
This is so inspiring 💙 I always wanted to try videography a lot but watching your videos was the turning point for where I really decided to do something for it. So I grabed my phone and make my own sooo amateur video this summer. And even if it was an amateur one it made me so happy like those moments will never fade away and will be there to tell its own story.. So thank you for being the inspire!
Is it just me or the quality has gone threw the roof!! IK the 1dx ii is amazing but this looked in some of the shots like a raven or even a scarlet (not quite dragon or epic w in 8k) Love everything from the color grading to the zenmuse footage, keep it up!!!!
Rob you truly blow my mind. Couple of points, how did your big break come about? Like how did you end up getting the jobs you get now and get to hang out with the top dogs in the game. Also what helps you to keep going when your life feels dark, like the biggest thing for me personally is comparing myself to the likes of you and worrying I won't make it. Love your stuff bro!
Just quit my job a couple weeks ago to chase my dream of being full time video and traveling / experiencing all this craziness you've been blessed with! Glad to see your success love the videos been here from the start
goosebumps.. amazing cinematography with great message behind it! Would be interested in how you network/connect to people with the same interests as you!
The picture-quality is just perfect! So many great views. And I agree with waking up really early. But its worth it. Thanks for this very inspiring video.
Rob man! The whole time you have me smiling with those awesome landscape and hiking shots! Beautiful scenery! I agree a Camera has changed my life as well! Keep it up man!
It's the first video and only 42 seconds I watched from you but I subscribe you immediately. That already was epic and incredible! So now I'm gonna watch the rest!!
I spent two years creating and getting brand relations. I only left school once I was making more than enough money to be self sustainable. Whole video coming about this :)
Rob Strok that’s awesome It feels good to know that you put time and work into it. I guess it’s just easy to think about where you are now and be jealous of that rather than see all the work you put into it over time. I definitely cannot wait for that video! I’m sure everyone else feels the same 👍🏽👍🏽
I think it would be cool if you did a Seattle meet-up for those of us that live here and follow you and do a group hike/adventure this Summer. Maybe I am overly optimistic that everyone on the internet is "normal" but one can hope! Love your work and Strok-ed to see more footage!
I'm sure it's gonna be great fun when you start to settle down a little bit to look back at all these amazing memories you've created over the years! Wonderful work Rob and please continue to inspire and create :D cheers from Norway
dude seriously good video!!! youve taken your vlogs to the next level .wondering what camera you use for video and what luts you use in your grading , and do you sell them? maybe a tutorial on the behind the scenes how you make a video would be cool
im a little late on this video, but wow. this deserves way more than 145k views and you deserve way more than 97k subs. you're so talented and this video is put together so well. its so inspiring to me. keep grinding, you just gained a fan.
The cinematic feel from the footage, and just overall video, just hugely motivated me to shoot more! You should do a video sometime on how you capture your scenes and what the editing process is like.
Amazing man .. You are a HUGE inspiration..i think i comment this all the day to your videos..yours nainoa's sam's and the cool crew of travel filmmakers..
Your videos are always breathtaking. Thank you Rob from the bottom of my heart, you’re really the reason why I decided to follow my passion and chase my dreams. Even though I’m still young I already know what to do with my life, thank you for inspiring me and teaching me that dreams can become reality. Love from an italian, young but passionated videomaker!
You and Nainoa Langer have inspired me beyond anything else and I thank you for that. Keep up the great work dude! Question: What would you recommend as a starter camera?
Your living my dream. Just watching your videos inspires me and pushes me to try and achieve that a goal of one day traveling the world and shooting video/photo along the way!
After graduating college and starting my first job, I was struck with the same pandemic of following the dream. It’s not the benefits of self employment that called me, it was nature and the unknown that called my name. Something about going to places far and few have been and climbing mountains that people don’t know exist made me want to create videos. People in society today fail to appreciate the beauty this world has beyond the concrete jungle. This has pushed me to experience the world now while it still exists in its natural beauty. Rob keep it up! Cause your content is epic. If you have time check out some of my content as I strive for the same dream! Thanks.
I’m positively in love with your videography and have been a fan for some time now. I would just love your advice on how to start a career in the sorta thing you’re up to!
really i fall in love with your videos man your editing is super awesome one request thought will you make hole vlog in cinematic and with good music so we play and enjoy you video for much longer just connect all the intro portion and make the hole vlog or do it saperately all vlog in cinematic and with your choice of good music the cinematic and your music selection is crazy awesome i watch your awesome videos since beginning bro keep doing what you doing there is no body above your level you are one of the best of the best
Killer story man! Finding the thing you love is the thing people search their whole life for. Glad you found it early! Now the hustle begins!
I'm so glad to hear that you will be continuing on your adventures and video work and think a video discussing your transistion from quitting school to committing to your passion would add value to nearly everyone's lives and would love to hear about it!
Beautiful! Love the positive vibes. Gorgeous visuals as well :)
Always staying positive, thanks Jordan!
That's the key! Rob: did you go there for some client of privately?
I’ve always wanted to do this exact thing, just traveling and make a story out of filming at like the coolest places around the world. One can only hope.
Really inspiring bro.
I am in legit tears that was so good, I have been watching you since your first video and I love how far you have come. Seeing you be amazing at this really inspires me to want to do this!!

Rob, you always blow my mind with your visuals. Always so stoked when you upload a new vid!

How long did it take to go from amateur to quitting school and doing everything full time professionally?
I spent two years creating and getting brand relations. I only left school once I was making more than enough money to be self sustainable. Whole video coming about this :)
