What a beautiful work of art. Your lighting; composition, sound design and movement are what makes this so good. This could have been shot on countless cameras, but only by you.
Hi, @philipbloom . I seem to remember you writing that the Sony F3 has 14 stops of dynamic range with the 4:4:4 update. Did you measure this? The F3 is not in the cineD database, so I'm curious to know.
I've never watched a more cinematic approach to a camera review in all my days of consuming UA-cam content...and I have been here since the beginning. Bravo.
100% in agreement with this statement. This was EPIC, beautiful and had the perfect ending of any of the "similar" types of videos. Made the point brilliantly!
Here's the bottom line: practice, practice, practice. And if you feel lacking, hire someone. For my first short, I hired a local editor I had worked with before. He did a great job. No way I could edit as well. I just wrote the story. He likes fast cuts, close ups, good sound design, great editing, color grading. We all can't be top notch at everything
Every once in a while, someone finds a new, unique way to stand apart from the crowd of copy-paste content creators and make something really special. This is definitely one of those moments. You were able to add value to the conversation while still showcasing your obvious talent. Bravo.
Loved the quote at the end. I think nowadays people are obsessed with cameras when most of what makes the so called "cinematic look" comes from lighting mostly. And most importantly is what you make with the tools. It's so easy to fall into the gear rabbit hole.
I see this too with many DoPs putting all the effort in testing all lenses available. But when it comes to shooting, their lighting is all over the place...
You've just made it a lot harder for me to watch me now to watch 'normal' UA-cam content without finding it disappointing! I've no idea how much time, planning and effort went into making this short (other than a LOT) but just WOW. There are very few creators in this space making content of this quality... the shot selection, the lighting, the careful sound design, the acting, the grading all add up to an incredibly professional result. I am genuinely in awe of skill and talent like yours and it makes your conclusion even more true... it's got so little to do with how much kit you own and so much to do with how you use it. Congratulations. That was amazing... Liked. Subscribed. Inspired!
And the story. This isn't some nerdy guy sitting at a table with a camera. He started with a premise; what makes a cinematic look. Then fell into dynamic range, after (rightly) dismissing resolution. Then he discussed why more expensive cameras were lacking. Or were they? Finally, the conclusion that it's not the gear, it's the package, primarily the story. Casablanca, for example, was shot on 16mm, in black and white. And he even stuck in a commercial.
This is bloody brilliant. The epiphany of this realization was Gareth Edwards shooting his film, “The Creator” on $3,300 Sony FX3 body… Essentially they wanted a very small portable camera system that gave the film makers “freedom of movement”, and a system that allowed them to shoot clean files at higher ISO’s, so they could use minimal lighting for a more dramatic effect during dark scenes. On a smaller content creator context: Chris Prouse produces beautifully cinematic outdoor/back country films with a small Panasonic LUMIX G9 kit. There’s beautiful work being created with small Fuji kits. Small Sony (a6700 sized) kits. Seems like all of my favorite film makers use small fairly inexpensive gear. This makes me happy, as it makes this craft of film making and photography more accessible…
1. This kinda makes me happy that I own A7IV. 2. The whole video was so masterfully crafted and shot, I am in awe. 3. Kudos to you and your team, this is one of the best and most cinematic videos on UA-cam.
Every video is like a movie. Absolutely phenomenal! Btw, your video on the X-H2S started my journey into actually getting a Fujifilm and completely changing all of my equipment into Fujifilm. Thank you so much!
Same I’m also considering buying it but haven’t committed yet. I already have a bmpcc 4k but want a second cam to fit on a gimbal and to do photo shoots
I do have myself a BMPCC4K and bought a XH2S a month ago. No regrets it's truly amazing for its price even though it has flaws like every equipment. (I had an opportunity for both this model and the A7SIII and even at the same price I'd go for it) @@rosetellem
To watch your videos is to experience a humbling reminder of the true art of storytelling. You are not merely a filmmaker-you are a visionary, weaving the threads of life, emotion, and truth into a tapestry that transcends the screen. Cinema is far from dead; it pulses with life here, in the works you craft and share. On your UA-cam channel, it finds new breath. Long live cinema!
Dude ! That was a masterpiece ! It feel so good to watch some quality content like that here ! Your storytelling, lighting, everything was perfect and hold me the whole video ! Nice conclusion btw
I hate the fact i found this video , now i cant watch videos the same way anymore. This just makes me believe its not about the camera is about whos holding it. Aamzing Job
What abrilliant way to showcase a technical video. Creating a cinematic story as the backdrop to your video is genius and really shows off your knowledge in film production.
I am speechless; I wish more creators made such a masterpiece out of the ordinary topic. Your outstanding work deserves some kind of UA-cam recognition. Love it
@@ermiaramez976 I see people using anamorphic and think, "the is what I need to buy to get that filmic edge" meanwhile my 1.8 primes sit in a bag. Then I look at your stuff, see no flares in light and see you used photo primes which look equally cinematic.
This was an incredible amount of work with every shot having such dramatic lighting, framing, and composition. Fantastic job, and thank you for the message.
i'm speechless. This is just another level of making a UA-cam video. The amount of your knowlegde and work that you put in this video is amazing. Thanks for very good lesson!
I recently upgraded from using an iPhone 12 to a mb osmos pocket 3. I have no intention of upgrading anytime soon, but decided to click on the video anyways….. holy hell what a cinematic experience! I really wish I had gone to some kind of film school instead of being a dumb construction worker! Excellent shots, script, storyboard, acting talent. You put a lot of time into the set as well, bravo!
Film school sure would be nice but you can still make the most out of what is available online, I also wish I had a film background but hey at least I have the money to buy this camera and start my film journey now :)
you dont need film school and ive been though film school. Go help out for free on small shoots. then get a camera and start shooting. Learn additional skills like lighting form UA-cam. most of what you learn will come form actually doing it with an actor and then realizing your mistakes
I don’t usually comment but your creativity to make this video is the best that I’ve seen! Great approach! Great from top to bottom & extremely unique! Greatttt job!!!!
I realized that what makes his work look so incredible is that he has master the concept of foreground, midground, background. If you look at almost every frame, there is some kind of foreground object that helps to add depth to his shots. Keep up the amazing work.
Esto, no es UA-cam, esto no es un video, esto es una obra cinematográfica en su máximo esplendor, explicar algo tan técnico de esta forma tan bella con una iluminación perfecta, una composición tan agradable y un sonido tan cuidado y perfecto... estoy asombrado. Pocas veces te encuentras esto en youtube y agradezco enormemente que esto ocurra... espero que mas creadores (me incluyo) se inspiren de ti, para crear obras en las que se hable de temas técnicos con esta perfección.
Excellent video man! The set design and color choice is amazing. Seriously such an awesome job! And I love the A7iv. I use it more than my fx6 and fx3. Don't ask me why lol. I would love to know the lenses cause there is no way I could guess.
What did I just watch!? Nothing less than pure CINEMA! You definitely knew what you were doing, mate.. Bravo! Keep going.. 👏🏻💛✨ Still couldn't guess the lenses used. Care to shed some light on that matter? 😄
Dude who are you!? This was so well done, I don't even care about cameras and their tech features but damn you made me care and i felt like i was watching a movie. Great work, both of you.
A rising star is who he is. Just like in sports, some guy you've never heard of bursts out from nowhere. You have no idea how much work he put in to reach this level, though some things can't be taught.
Truly awesome cinematic video man, loved the lightning, framing/shot placments and editing. Very nicely done and be awesome to work with you in the future. Making the SONY cam look soo good is a great solid achievement. Thanks for sharing this cool little film. 😎👍
This recall me with my old friend who makes short film with freakin Canon 50D and won local competition with it in 2013/14. He also open cinematic wedding service later with APSC cameras. Amazing content! First time watching on your channel I can really feel the effort of making this video!
1. Masterpiece That was rather interesting, thanks for the comparison in such a beautiful cinematic style, a masterpiece of art and craft, an awesome actress, a genius lighting, script and background music. The cameraman and narrator was you I assume. Better as many blockbuster movies. Man, what a preparation with all that brand props to search through and finally sticked to the board. 2. The Other Channel The only other YT channel creating contributions in that quality since ever is the “Media Division” channel, must watch if you don’t know it yet. 3. Light and Lens The light and the lens make the image. You didn’t reveal the lenses you used, did you? 4. Missing Interesting the A7R5 is missing on that comparison page you mentioned, as far as I got it, I always assumed it’s the same sensor. Each scene filmed to avoid that sensors rolling shutter. You truly thought of everything and rolled for the edit and final cut. 5. Announced Tho whom it may concern, the announced Nikon Z6 III is expected to come with a 24.2 megapixel stacked BSI sensor and RED codec. 6. The Pareto Principle The 80/20 rule is truly universal. If Vilfredo Pareto ever imagined how general the relation he discovered is?
Watched a lot of videos about cameras. But this is by far the most interesting I've ever seen. I really enjoyed the blending of the "Hollywood-style" "person in desperate search of an answer" scene usage with the actual content of the video's information and message itself. You would have thought you were watching an entire crime drama film in just those eight minutes. Masterfully done.
I'm frustrated, so yes, it's beautiful, you showcased your talents and it's impressive, but if we're talking about the subject of the film itself, I find it to be a mockery. On one hand, you're promoting a camera based on specifications, so you're playing their game and pushing the viewer towards consumption. On the other hand, you play the knight by telling us that it's not the equipment that matters; it's comparable to an alcohol advertisement with the disclaimer 'drink responsibly,' it's ridiculous in my sens. I would add that the rendering of an image is not limited to specifications alone; the grain, the gradients between light and shadow, THE COLORS, the contrasts, and the sharpness are what truly differentiate between an Alexa and a Sony camera body or even between any camera designed for cinema and one designed for video... If I may offer a piece of advice (useful, in my opinion, and not frivolous and moralizing like that of the video), if you want to create cinematic imagery (without feeling like a dermatologist every time you do a close-up), buy yourself an old Red or a PMW-F3 for roughly the same price. I apologize for the apparent vehemence of my message; I hope you won't take it personally. I reiterate that I was impressed by the quality of your images.
The very best "Technical Knowledge Sharing Video I have ever seen" The shots, The Creative Approaches and The Communication way are blended splenditly. Bravo & Chappo 👌👌👌
Now that is how to create a review! The goal was clear... tell a great story, backed by incredible imagery! You knocked it out of the park! Soooooo good. Amazing! 🙌
Your lighting; composition, sound design and movement are what makes this so good. This video alone has put my 4 years of filmmaking to the bin. What a beautiful work of art. Absolutely blown away dude! The cinematography, story telling, VoiceOver, music everything is just too good
This has changed what a slideshow could be. This whole entire video could be a slideshow. But you printed them out on physical papers and make a cinematic video essay. This is genius.
Good hint. Look at each frame to see how he lit it. Lighting is vital; this guy knows what he's doing. He edits well, and favors a quick style, which works for short films but can be exhausting for feature length films. Composition, angles, all simple yet effective. Pre-planning was critical here, and important for your film as well.
This is excellent. I've shot so much with the A7s in the day. It fooled a lot of people. But today looking at a new camera it's a tough choice. This was a fantastic presentation. Subscribed.
What did I just watch, man, was that real? That was a piece of art. You’re a genius, man. I finally found inspiration. Thank you for sharing your piece of art with us.
Damn, that was incredibly beautiful! Incredibly well put together, informative and never a truer word! The Possession of Hannah Grace blew me away when I found out it was shot on A7sii cameras..
wow....blown away by the amount of creativity + skill + work that went into this. It's so tempting to think "if I only had THAT camera, and THAT lens, and THAT light....THEN, I could do so much". In reality...it's so much more than the tools. It's the creative mind + the tools + the proper skill and execution. It's hard work. Bravo.
Absolutely. I’m just getting into filmmaking as a screenplay writer. I’m studying cinematography with extreme obsession. My first film is going to have a 20k budget and I want to get into Sundance with it. I’m hoping that the camera I’m going to use will be able to pull off the shots that I want. I’m studying cinematography just as much as I am lighting and coloring. If you want I would love to get your opinion on my screenplay if you’d like to read it.
That's an amazing job! I was "scrolling" YT videos looking for references and I was pleased to discover your beautiful piece of art. Thank you so much for your film, it was so inspiring for anyone, include those who are looking for start a new career as a content creator. I'm already a fan and just subscribed! Keep going.. Take care from down here in Brazil! :)
What was that? I have never been so moved by a UA-cam video. Effortless yet full of information. And the sound design agve me goosebumps. Perfection. Thank you for this.
You should get 1mil subscribers really soon creating that kind of art, it's whole different level comparing to the rest of yt. Did you use any anamorphic for the shoots or just crop? Which lenses did you use for this masterpiece?
This is ridiculously good. I mean it. The fact that something that has been done a hundred thousand times has another way to be presented and so very well exectued.... pf. Incredible. Also it got me laughing how you mispelled "Realization". Keep the amazing work mate.
Your filmdirecting is on the whole another level, man! WTF?? Your cinematography is mind blowing, but what is even more impressive is your sound design work. How long did it take you to make this video from the scratch?
Hi, I don't know much about cameras and I don't own one, but this video is incredible! In my entire UA-cam experience, I've never seen anything like it. The cinematic shots, perfect voice-over, lighting, and sound all come together so perfectly. It's truly impressive! I usually dont comment but this time i canr hold my self to express what i feel after watch this.
What a beautiful work of art. Your lighting; composition, sound design and movement are what makes this so good. This could have been shot on countless cameras, but only by you.
Oh Man, hearing this from you means the world to me! Thank you so much
@@ermiaramez976 Ermia, do you use any popular powergrades for this look?
Hi, @philipbloom . I seem to remember you writing that the Sony F3 has 14 stops of dynamic range with the 4:4:4 update. Did you measure this? The F3 is not in the cineD database, so I'm curious to know.
@@ermiaramez976 He's right!
Let's not forget the acting. When she frantically looked around for the A7 IV photo in disbelief, it made me laugh SO hard. 😆

@@ermiaramez976 do you have a course or yt-channel suggestion for an intermediate video editor?
I'm looking forward to be at your level 🙄
I see this too with many DoPs putting all the effort in testing all lenses available. But when it comes to shooting, their lighting is all over the place...
What I noticed is there's not a single scene where a regular boring ceiling light would be used. It's either window, night light, torcher, etc.
The sheer amount a work you put into this sound design is incredible. Thanks for sharing this mate
so happy to hear that, thanks bud
That’s the same reason it looks so good 😉
Music, sound, sound design makes such a big difference.
Everyone assumes sound will be good. No one appreciates the work that goes into it.
You've just made it a lot harder for me to watch me now to watch 'normal' UA-cam content without finding it disappointing! I've no idea how much time, planning and effort went into making this short (other than a LOT) but just WOW.

And the story. This isn't some nerdy guy sitting at a table with a camera.
He started with a premise; what makes a cinematic look. Then fell into dynamic range, after (rightly) dismissing resolution. Then he discussed why more expensive cameras were lacking. Or were they? Finally, the conclusion that it's not the gear, it's the package, primarily the story. Casablanca, for example, was shot on 16mm, in black and white.
And he even stuck in a commercial.
Oh men what a content
thanks for watching, bud
This is bloody brilliant.
The epiphany of this realization was Gareth Edwards shooting his film, “The Creator” on $3,300 Sony FX3 body…
Essentially they wanted a very small portable camera system that gave the film makers “freedom of movement”, and a system that allowed them to shoot clean files at higher ISO’s, so they could use minimal lighting for a more dramatic effect during dark scenes.
On a smaller content creator context: Chris Prouse produces beautifully cinematic outdoor/back country films with a small Panasonic LUMIX G9 kit.
There’s beautiful work being created with small Fuji kits. Small Sony (a6700 sized) kits.
Seems like all of my favorite film makers use small fairly inexpensive gear.
This makes me happy, as it makes this craft of film making and photography more accessible…
The limitation is not the gear. The light source that all others mimic is, of course, the Sun.
Dang this is incredibly well done. This wasn't a camera review, this was straight cinema. :D

The 80/20 rule is truly universal. If Vilfredo Pareto ever imagined how general the relation he discovered is?
His voice does remind me of 'Media Division'. That guy is German, this guy is Turkish, I assume.
Watched a lot of videos about cameras. But this is by far the most interesting I've ever seen. I really enjoyed the blending of the "Hollywood-style" "person in desperate search of an answer" scene usage with the actual content of the video's information and message itself. You would have thought you were watching an entire crime drama film in just those eight minutes. Masterfully done.
What lenses did you use? 😊
“Thanks a lot man!!
I used 24mm sigma 1.4 and sony 50mm f1.8”
This is probably the most thrilling review I've ever seen and I'm all for it !
Best video camera advice ever! Thanks!
thanks for watching!
Excellent work my friend!!
Thanks, man!
you saying that really means a lot.
I'm frustrated, so yes, it's beautiful, you showcased your talents and it's impressive, but if we're talking about the subject of the film itself, I find it to be a mockery. On one hand, you're promoting a camera based on specifications, so you're playing their game and pushing the viewer towards consumption. On the other hand, you play the knight by telling us that it's not the equipment that matters; it's comparable to an alcohol advertisement with the disclaimer 'drink responsibly,' it's ridiculous in my sens.
I would add that the rendering of an image is not limited to specifications alone; the grain, the gradients between light and shadow, THE COLORS, the contrasts, and the sharpness are what truly differentiate between an Alexa and a Sony camera body or even between any camera designed for cinema and one designed for video...
If I may offer a piece of advice (useful, in my opinion, and not frivolous and moralizing like that of the video), if you want to create cinematic imagery (without feeling like a dermatologist every time you do a close-up), buy yourself an old Red or a PMW-F3 for roughly the same price.
I apologize for the apparent vehemence of my message; I hope you won't take it personally. I reiterate that I was impressed by the quality of your images.
At least someone said it! Bravo.
The very best "Technical Knowledge Sharing Video I have ever seen" The shots, The Creative Approaches and The Communication way are blended splenditly. Bravo & Chappo 👌👌👌
Now that is how to create a review! The goal was clear... tell a great story, backed by incredible imagery! You knocked it out of the park! Soooooo good. Amazing! 🙌
Amazing work! An amazing demonstration showing that full-Frame sony 10 bit is all you need.
Your lighting; composition, sound design and movement are what makes this so good. This video alone has put my 4 years of filmmaking to the bin. What a beautiful work of art. Absolutely blown away dude! The cinematography, story telling, VoiceOver, music everything is just too good
Aim higher. Study what he did.
This has changed what a slideshow could be. This whole entire video could be a slideshow. But you printed them out on physical papers and make a cinematic video essay. This is genius.
I watched the video silently. It worked without all the technical details. What a great work of cinematography, and what a talented actress.
Good hint. Look at each frame to see how he lit it. Lighting is vital; this guy knows what he's doing. He edits well, and favors a quick style, which works for short films but can be exhausting for feature length films.
Composition, angles, all simple yet effective.
Pre-planning was critical here, and important for your film as well.
The ending line gave me goosebumps. Incredible work, man
Absolutely phenomenal presentation, wasn’t expecting a camera review like this
This is excellent. I've shot so much with the A7s in the day. It fooled a lot of people. But today looking at a new camera it's a tough choice. This was a fantastic presentation. Subscribed.
You deserve more views and subs for this quality of work. Wishing you the best!
Bruh😮😮😮😮😮 pure fire!! Makes me proud to own the a7iv
Okay…this was really good. Engaging and thrilling yet informative at the same time. Well done
thanks a lot for watching!
Well this is definitely the next big channel in this category
thanks, man!
What did I just watch, man, was that real? That was a piece of art. You’re a genius, man. I finally found inspiration. Thank you for sharing your piece of art with us.
This is really well done ✅ thank you for the eduteinment. I have more faith in my A7IV now
Now this is Cinematic! Let's all appreciate the enormous effort on the production of this video🙌
Love the video, so beautifully done! Thanks for the shoutout 🙏
Thanks for watching, man!
You’re always been a big inspiration to me
One video a year from this dude would be a treat. This is amazing.
Oh My God. This is next level... Damn... Cheers @Ermia Ramez.. Amazing..
Thanks, bud!
Beautifully shot and explained, Thankyou for this video.
Damn, that was incredibly beautiful! Incredibly well put together, informative and never a truer word! The Possession of Hannah Grace blew me away when I found out it was shot on A7sii cameras..
wow....blown away by the amount of creativity + skill + work that went into this. It's so tempting to think "if I only had THAT camera, and THAT lens, and THAT light....THEN, I could do so much". In reality...it's so much more than the tools. It's the creative mind + the tools + the proper skill and execution. It's hard work. Bravo.
The tools are the least important.
No words to explain .
Blown away by the quality work 👏🏻 .
I loved the approach of using cinematic shots to explain a camera as a review. Perfect!
thanks a lot for watching, bud
Absolutely. I’m just getting into filmmaking as a screenplay writer. I’m studying cinematography with extreme obsession. My first film is going to have a 20k budget and I want to get into Sundance with it. I’m hoping that the camera I’m going to use will be able to pull off the shots that I want. I’m studying cinematography just as much as I am lighting and coloring. If you want I would love to get your opinion on my screenplay if you’d like to read it.
This is a must watch for all aspiring film students and camera gear heads. I especially love the closing statement! Fantastic work!
Man, your videos are next level for UA-cam and your girl acting is absolute!
Absolutely love the work from both of you ❤️
Thanks a lot, man!
Yes, she's the best.
Production value is off the charts - great work! What lenses did you use?
Thanks bud.
50mm F1.8 Sony
24mm F1.4 Sigma
That's an amazing job! I was "scrolling" YT videos looking for references and I was pleased to discover your beautiful piece of art. Thank you so much for your film, it was so inspiring for anyone, include those who are looking for start a new career as a content creator. I'm already a fan and just subscribed! Keep going.. Take care from down here in Brazil! :)
This is stunning. True artistry to use such detailed storytelling to essentially explain a rating system. Bravo
What was that? I have never been so moved by a UA-cam video. Effortless yet full of information. And the sound design agve me goosebumps.
Perfection.
Thank you for this.
You should get 1mil subscribers really soon creating that kind of art, it's whole different level comparing to the rest of yt. Did you use any anamorphic for the shoots or just crop? Which lenses did you use for this masterpiece?
Thanks man.
No anamorphic, just the 2.39:1 crop with
50mm f1.8 sony
24mm f1.4 sigma
This is ridiculously good. I mean it. The fact that something that has been done a hundred thousand times has another way to be presented and so very well exectued.... pf. Incredible. Also it got me laughing how you mispelled "Realization". Keep the amazing work mate.
Wow, This is an amazing work of art. Thank you for sharing it, I have will continue to learn a lot with this video.
Your filmdirecting is on the whole another level, man! WTF?? Your cinematography is mind blowing, but what is even more impressive is your sound design work. How long did it take you to make this video from the scratch?
Hi, I don't know much about cameras and I don't own one, but this video is incredible! In my entire UA-cam experience, I've never seen anything like it. The cinematic shots, perfect voice-over, lighting, and sound all come together so perfectly. It's truly impressive!
I usually dont comment but this time i canr hold my self to express what i feel after watch this.
