      That's awesome! I think I did thirty days before, but it's been a while. Definitely need to try one again. It's cool that you have noticed improvement!

    I just started getting into toy photography about 2 months ago. And a great in inexpensive background for studio work is using a printed landscape photo that I shot. It a great way to bring the outdoors inside, especially for poor weather days. So far I have toy say toy photography has been a blast. Thanks for the videos I just subscribed.

    YOU MEAN YOUR TOYS DON'T TALK TO YOU? MAYBE JUST ME LOL!! Love this! It's like you were reading my mind. Just last night I started feeling overwhelmed with what figure or figures and backgrounds to use. So, I decided to use only one figure at a time in a portrait style photo. Much less stressful. Thanks for the tip man I feel a lot better now. As a beginner I wanted my photos to come out like the ones I see on Instagram but realistically I know I need the practice. So, for us beginners take this advice!!! It will help you feel better about Toy Photography. Thanks again for this advice; I already kind of new it, but it's good to hear it from someone who is good at it and knows what they're doing. Keep up the great work man. Oh P.S. I'm loving your filming and editing skills to. If you ever run out of Toy Photo idea's, you can move on to filming and editing tutorials. Thats one thing I'm struggling with that's why I don't have any videos posted yet. As a beginner I don't know what kind of videos to make about Toy photography even though I have a good camera and all the equipment and editing software., I get lost when it comes to that. Keep on keeping on. Your ending statement said it all...

      Dang, this comment is gold! Really means a lot and makes it all worth for me. So thank you! I didn't initially start planning this video aiming at beginners, but as I went on, I realized that would be a good focus as well as for people just not having time. Glad it all made sense to you haha.
      And I will definitely incorporate some video editing things here and there in the future! I'm still trying to figure out my style and get better at it myself. It's been fun, but definitely time consuming. I appreciate you, dude!

    Great tips! Especially at the end! Getting caught up in the likes and followers will suck the joy out of this hobby. I feel you tho, some of the pics I really liked barely got noticed and others I just threw out there to appease the algorithm get so many likes. It’s weird. Thanks for all you do! I needed this. 🤘

    I had the same experience when it came to drawing and you're absolutely right about toy photography being our version of taking a bit of imagination and recreating it for others to see.

    Toys don’t move either (unless they fall over) so as long as everything else is set up you’ll never miss the shot. Great advice, thanks!

    • @amusingking
      @amusingking  Рік тому

      That's a good one too!! Although it is extra frustrating when they do fall over lol. Thank you for the comment :)

    Hello Master: I am Taiwanese. This is what I want to say using translation software. I hope you can understand. I would like to ask if the Spider-Man scene you mentioned at 4:45 in the second video can be purchased for me. Link? Thank you very much🙏🙏🙏

      Hello! Do you mean the Spider-Gwen figure? Or the building in the background? Or do you mean a print of the photo? Sorry just want to be sure haha
