Hahahaha. Ted, you are one hell of a funny dude. And seriously, your channel has truly UNLOCKED some hidden drone CINEMATOGRAPHY skills that I didn't know was possible. I feel way more confident now....It's been a GAME CHANGER.
😂😂😂😂😂 love it it was a "DEAL BREAKER" for me 😂😂😂😂 you missed that one
What’s up Ted! Loved the whole thing and fell off my chair laughing. Never change mate, we need you. In the meantime, I’ll get back to polishing my turds..🤣🤣🤣
Nailed it Nailed it Nailed it 😂😂😂😂😂😂 This is why you are my fav drone-man.
Probably because of your contagious attitude, i just left work in the middle of the night (and my shift)to film some city drone shots. Afterwards, i didn't even release that i had no music on in the car. What a blast.
You're always a hoot to watch, Ted.
Gold. This is why we love you Ted. Every drone guy should be standing on their desks right now.
HAHA, you’ve inspired me to show my face in my next video 😂 much love Ted, this weekend I’m going to follow ALL the “pro” steps in this. Much love brother ❤
wealth? Awesome! Power??? Woah that can be good. SANDWICHES!!! Im here for the sandwiches.
2:45 the finger pointer with the ND filters got me BAD,. im dead lolololol
I can honestly say that I have gotten the best work of my career as a drone pilot by adopting your principles and concepts. My IG has grown by tens of thousands of followers and major corporations are reaching out as a result. So glad I ran across your channel back when I did, I still have a lot to learn but your holistic approach has always resonated with me.
my friend…you made my month. THIS….is pure gold to a teacher.
I couldn’t me more thrilled that my playful little tutorials have landed with you. Thank you
HA Love it Ted! I hope this video brings you much monetary value! I think you are the ONLY drone youtuber that has not already published at least three Avata 2 videos in the past week, lol
Brilliant! What a hoot!
The Masterclass rocks my brother! I can already see my mindset changing when I am out getting footage. Keep slinging these great vids!
🤣🤣. Had me confused at first Ted, thought you had sold your soul, love it. You are the top man of flying camera wizardry. Keep them coming you legend.
OK lets get into it! - Another opener
Excellent, new carrier starting now.
You're by far the realest, my friend!
All too good!!! Love it!!! 👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing..😊
Brilliant!
Brilliant 👋👋👋
Love it!
That's interesting information ! nice video. Thanks for sharing, my friend!🥷🇯🇵
Hahaha, you are the best. Keep up the awesome work.
Haha so true Ted! So many drone channels now. Thanks for keeping it real and providing us with useable knowledge!
I absolutely loved this video!! Knocked another one out of the park!
I tried _'smashing'_ the LIKE button, but all I got was the distinctive and subtle click of a microswitch inside my mouse.
Same deal months ago when I _'hit'_ the Subscribe button!
This is fabulous 😂 I was laughing so much, Ted 😅
Another great informative video 🔥 Your style is 🔥
right on! i really just felt like being silly this week. I’m finishing a new episode now about how to craft drone videos that are more engaging.
That was FUNNY AS F^#K Ted. Love the part at 1:50. "That's what keeps them coming back for more". Like # 27!!!
I’m glad to hear the humor landed. It can be risky doing this online. I’m NOT a professional comic so I was a hesitant to do this.
Just the laugh I needed Ted. Thanks for sharing. Game changing cynicism right there. Like button *smashed*. D. 😂
Your best video yet! 🤣
Spot on! This rant is constantly going on in my head. There are many 'Drone Shills' I stopped watching because of this crap. Thankfully I discovered your stuff and still have something watch! (Buy my LUTS, No one knows this, Bonus tip at the end, and of course - do not respond to any criticism or corrections in the comments!)
Fantastic, yet so true; watched it 3 times 😂
Haha! This was so funny! 😂 I think everyone that have an interest in drones (or other things of course) have encountered such YT channels more than once. 😆 That said, I really enjoy your content. I think you are an inspiration and a great tutor, who has a more relaxed approach to drone filming.😊👌
I can't believe you just gave us such valuable advice FOR FREE!
I have smashed the like button.
You definitely nailed it.. thanks for the tips..lol
I just enjoy the way you talk 😊
Thats funny. Like your drone content which is more towards art than tech and features. Keep up the good work.
Ha ha, love it Ted - all of it, but especially the five-monthly "major life update" videos 🤣
Good sarcasm goes a long way! Nice video😂
Make sure to stay to the end of the video where I reveal my absolute game changing Pro Tip
Loved your video, Ted! It was so funny and creative. I understand that making money as a UA-camr is tough these days. UA-camrs have to find ways to be unique and give people something they want to hear and enjoy watching. As for me, I create UA-cam videos just for fun and the learning experience, especially now that I'm retired. LOL! Anyway, your tips were great!"
🤣 Love it man, but soooooo true. Brilliant work!!
Excellent video, the types of videos you mentioned absolutely take all the fun out of everything. But we follow them and think we're having fun. It's weird.
Oh man, Ted! My wife had to come over to see what I was laughing so hard at. This was awesome!
Also, congrats on becoming a UA-cam hundredaire.
That bonus tip was top tier 😏
What an awesome video, made me laugh..good job….but 2 i like to add..I myself never watch anything where the word “THIS” is in the title and i turn any video immediately off if they say..”Watch to the end”. Keep them coming
Brilliant video Ted - what a roust - loved it!
"I know an old lady who swallowed a fly - I don't know why she swallowed a fly -perhaps she'll die.
....
I know an old lady who swallowed a horse - she's dead - of course!"
Very funny! Great work. The funniest vid I have watched in a long time.
Brilliant Ted.! You hit the nail.on the head and THAT'S why people like myself love watching your channel..none of the bull 😉😁👍
Keep up the good work..
By the way, I smashed that LIKE button.. 🤷🏻♂️😂
excellent. I’m glad you had fun with this episode. I was just in the mood to be silly this week. Thank you for being part of the community here.
LMFFO, Love this!
Perfect now I can get started.
@@TedNemeth Not much man, but now you've released this video if you want to skip that chat on my fledgling drone career we can ;-)
🤣🤣🤣 You're the man!
First ever drone video I have watched without a single drone in it. Hahahaha Well done, you got 100% view duration from me 👍🏽
I always find a thumbnail containing a pretty girl, especially at the beach, draws in the punters. Great video btw
Speaking of affiliate links, I definitely need the Travel Disguise!
You had me at “instant fame” LOL
hahaaha! Great video Ted!
That was what I needed at 3am. I might have woken my wife laughing.
I actually snorted tea at the 'bonus tip'.
Jeez I love your content Ted...
@TedNemeth Your very welcome 🙏 Ted, you do what comes naturally mate, you share your experiences, thoughts and feelings, the recipe I like in a content creater, now sell me your Luts 👌😊
Freaking great man 😂😂
Ted, my friend. You completely forgot the KEY ESSENCE , which is including your obsession for coffee into drone videos. Didn't you know that? Coffee and drones belong together. How do you ever wanna jump over that 7k a year mark? It's simply impossible. But wait, before you head out to buy a 5000 $ coffee machine, here's one bonus tip: you can only film cinematic coffee scenes with at least an ARRI ALEXA. Anything else will not make you successful. Don't even try it with a Blackmagic 5k camera or something similar. It will not work, believe me 😂🤣 Ted, keep going bro. We love your content.
You forgot the most important thing to say is : "I got this drone (whatever) free but the company that sent it to me has no knowledge of the video content and no input in what I have done in this video" and all of us say in unison "YEAH RIGHT".
more of this videos dude, maybe 1 each 3 months? You could say it's the new recipe for UA-cam success (free of charge tip)
You're the best, Ted! Love your vids and this one had me LoL'ing
By the way, love the lighting and comp on this video! (seriously). Cool angle, light soft af, your big ugly head ( 😁 ) on the right third, and plenty of room for graphic overlays on the left.
Great stuff as always my man!
ha glad you enjoyed it. I was just in a mood to be silly last week. Had fun with this. Thanks for watching.
How would you separate what the tips you've given from a drone tutorials channel and a drone channel? Or someone who is sharing his or her knowledge about drones and the drone world?
What's up, unlock cinematic footage. it's a game changer
THIS ISN’T A GAME CHANGER…
THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING
edit: That was the thumbnail.
i will buy this model you promote heavily
This is hilarious but you’ve absolutely SMASHED! It as I see this all the time😂
What's up Ted? I'm no UA-cam creator, but sure do like flying my drone around. I watch all your videos as I always pick up some good tips. I did post my video of the Shinnecock Canal and it's a great location. I probably broke all your cinematic and photography rules🤥. For sure will meet up with you for coffee and a flight.
Such a game changing cinematic episode😂😂 saved my day💪🏼
Did you see Markus Pix’s version “Why I’m not relevant”?
hey Pedro. Glad you got a laugh. I’m not familiar with Markus Pix. Will check it out.
Thanks for sharing this. I watched another one from him that perfectly matches Ted's mantra (with a little more emotion) "Why I almost ended this channel."
What's up, Ted. I retired as an engineer so I thought it was time for a change. I thought about getting a private pilot license but then I found out about drones and that was a real game changer. Bonus tip, I just passed my 107 so I'm ready to unlock some new adventures and maybe, eventually, become a youtube influencer. I'm looking forward to being self employed, and live a life of champagne and cocaine, rather than spending my time polishing turds for 'the man'. I just want people to pay me to tell them about my major life update. I think I'll start with doing reviews of every ND filter manufacturer out there, to start building a following. The only problem is that I'm old, ugly and have a squeaky voice. That could be a deal breaker, so I may have to hire a male model to read the script. Maybe I'll have to hold off on cocaine and just go with cheap champagne, to cover the expense of the model.
Regarding your suggestion about having a green plant and a neon light (or was it green neon light and a plant?), I'm thinking of having a green neon light that's shaped like a plant, in the background. (Bonus Tip #2, no need to water it.) There's just so much to think about. Gotta go for now but I'll smash that like button on the way out.
I think to REALLY pull it off, I need some specs like you Mr Ted! 😅
as soon as you said " You must overload beginers with as much technical bullshit as possible"...I think I wet myself with laughter 😛
OMG So funny😂
Had to look at my calendar as I think i went back to 4/1/24 😂
As a creator who often references turd-polishing, I'd be expecting some sort of royalty from Nemeth Global Corp.
Love your work, Messiah. I'm constantly sharing on Aussie pages, so by now you'd have noticed a monumental increase in Oceanic revenue.
You're welcome 😊
That a boy!!!! Oh Bread makes me poop! Ps. Thanks for the giggle....
Great advice: I don't do any of those - which is probably why nobody follows or subscribes 🤔
Keep 'em coming, buddy - love your story telling and wit! (and the drone & photography stuff isn't bad either 😜).
thank you my friend! I’m working on a new episode now about how to edit together more engaging drone videos. Great topic.
@@TedNemeth fantastic, look much forward seeing that - your creative tips are amazing - pls keep 'em coming!
Ohh no, I do start with "What's up guys" and sometimes the purple light. I'm not big enough for the plants yet... How do I buy your LUTZ? I didn't see 5 links during the video! That's not just drone videos, UA-cam in general! Great video on the truth 👏
Next time you're passing through Reno, feel free to stop bye. You're rad! 😊
oh man I love Reno. I’ve been to Burningman 15 years. So always flew into Reno. Been meaning to catch a Hot August nights Car show.
Is that still going? Man I would love to meet up one day.
Whatsup drone gangsters. I want to say something here in all seriousness. I DO NOT want to give the impression that I’m against creators on youtube making money selling their LUTs, or promoting accessories or promoting affiliate links.
Trying to earn a full time income on UA-cam is the hardest thing I’ve ever tried in my life. And I’ve had 5 professional careers in New York City. I can do anything. But this youtube game…..is tough (especially after the pandemic….it got VERY crowded here on UA-cam). For example: My first year on UA-cam I worked full time (60 hours per week) and made no money. ZERO. It took me that long to get monetized. If you want to check your male ego….work HARD for an entire year for no money. The second year (2023) I made $7,100 from UA-cam advertising. I worked my friggin face off all year and made $7k. 2024 is off to a blazing start. I have 24k subscribers and get a decent amount of views: I earn $480 per month…..from working 60 hours / week. When people say they’re quitting youtube…..man I totally get it.
This we a great episode and your not wrong. We I got my drone I watched at least two of those channels. Which I don't bother with now.
I always considered LUT sales as just being ways to support creators. Same as the PDF "Book" sales, or selling courses. Lot's of ways for creators to tap into their viewers wallets, UA-cam should be a first step not the finish line?
@@robbinsdrones - you said everything perfectly. Create value & present it in a non-cringe way. Slowly build a community over time. No shortcuts.
@@TedNemeth I do agree. When I feel I have benefited from a channel, then I will make a donation, 'buy them some coffee', or pay for a master class like yours. The problem I have is when the presentation suggests only 'their LUTS" , etc. are the answer.
@@smbishop63 - Scott you pointed out an important nuance there.
