    Man I appreciate that you are out here giving free game for videographers. Where I’m from people are quicker to hate and not help just because your trying to work in the same field as them. If your not on their level they won’t even collaborate with you on any project. You along with Creative Ryan, They Call Me Cotton and few more people give me something to learn from and build on to assist me in my videography career. I really appreciate your great tips, tricks, and tutorials. Really excited to work on my next project to apply everything you advise.

    I am new to creating music videos...like extremely new. My first shoot is tonight! Thank you for your tips. I don't have a great camera nor tools or finances to have that extremely nice video quality right now, but I am learning from you. I wish I could be your intern, even if only for a day. I would learn so much and jump light years in knowledge in this field. Thanks for taking the time to show me your work, and making these video tips. I have many mistakes to make, but so many I won't because of you. Thank you, again.

    @vzbeatz1706 6 років тому +1

    2.8 to 4.0 aperture is definitely the best setting to create depth, im using the fastest dual pixel autofocus outta my 80d even then it struggles at times to keep focus on a moving subject at 1.4

    Thank you, thank you, and thank you sir! I've learned so much in this video, I take my craft serious and your videos will help make me a better videographer. I don't have money for school and to be honest if I keep getting lessons from you I won't need school to be successful. Just from watching these two videos of yours I learned some things that will make me a better editor and director. I was getting discouraged but you made it exciting again thank you!

    I love what you said about lenses... I think the low apeture should serve as a stylistic shot in the video but should always be accompanied with a steady in focus shot... P.S the 50mm shot a 6.0 aperture is amazing Love your work keep it up.

    I appreciate the time you took to throw in the details and examples man it makes a world of difference. I'm just starting out, and focus is my enemy for I'm obsessed with the use of this glide cam I bought. Maybe a handheld rig would be better, with an external monitor. Hmm. We will see!

    @97HawksFly 6 років тому +1

    To add to what he said about depth of field, it's important think about the distance between your subject and the background. In most of his examples everything is in focus; however, the background is far enough away to create depth regardless of that fact.

    I literally study your style as a foundation for my rookie season of music video making. My 2 questions I have are, what rig and display are you holding in your shots and my canon t6i only goes to 60 fps, how do I get smooth slow mo with that?

    • @juliankolibaba6382
      @juliankolibaba6382 7 років тому

      Theo Jones Hey if you want Smooth slow motion use the "optical flow " Option in Premiere Pro, which creats frames between the Frames captured by your Camera. Sometimes it messes up but most of the time it works great.
