  • Come behind the scenes at MarkusWorld and see the making of some of the most epic UA-cam recipe videos ever ...made with an old camcorder! These are classic Markus videos- Hollywood sets built at home with nothing but cardboard, foamcore and hot glue. Let this inspire you and show you what is possible with a basic old camcorder, very little money and lots of imagination and resourcefulness. Part 1 of 3.
    If you want to see the finished videos after seeing this behind the scenes video, here are the links (remember- these were made almost a decade ago!)

    People really wants the story, they don't care about cameras, typography, props, lighting leather binding, or anything else, just the story. If you give them the story with enough verisimilitude to believe it, they'll forget any extraneous production issues.
    Great creative work on the sets, props, and costumes. The lighting and compositing is fantastic.

    I know I've said this before, but Markus your skills are insanely underrepresented. 3d rendering, editing, lighting. Then throw in the creativity that is required to imagine this stuff. You're, hands down one of my favorite creators to watch.

    the shed ..wow, pure talent! when I was a teenager I made my children room into a knight's castle room. I made stones out of cardboard and crumpled newspaper, painted them grey and stapled them on the walls. i even built romanesque arches for the windows. it looked so realistic that you had to touch it in order to feel what it really was. thank you for bringing back great memories.

    I still own one of those X900s. Purchased two of the several years ago and kept one. Could never get rid of the last one. I still use it, and even have the 3D adaptor which I use for personal clips. If I don't have to use a stabilizer, shoot in 4k, don't need to impress a client with equipment, and don't feel like hauling out a big Varicam, I will use this little gem.
