@@StudioBinder I have sent an email to you and even on Facebook but response. My email is africafilmproducers@gmail.com please check and respond. thank you
You will have to pay far through the rear soon enough. This isn't free content. It's the interesting factor that makes it worth watching. Most free stuff sucks
StudioBinder is the best filmmaking UA-cam channel out there imo. Thank you so much, you make what would usually take months of film class to learn accessible to anybody in clear ways that don’t beat about the bush. I owe a lot to you
You may not earning much with these videos but trust me you are inspring,teaching and helping whole lots of young and budding filmmakers in this world.
I only learned shallow, deep, and rack focus at my college. I surprised that there more type of camera focus. Watching your video makes me learn more and more about filmmaking. Thank you for giving us this knowledge. 🙏🙏🙏
I learned more from this shot list series than my entire media university. I wish StudioBinder was an online film school. I would happily join. The amount of value we are getting free is huge.
Just bought a $30 split diopter, had no idea it was such a simple effect to achieve. Think I first saw it in a Hitchcock film then saw it at the cinema in Cape Fear, the shot in the video above. It was amazing to see on the big screen, Nick Nolte's face absolutely huge in closeup with Jessica Lange sharp in the background. Like they say used sparingly it's such a great device. Thanks for the tip!!!
With every episode that I watch, I get more and more pumped and excited at the prospect of my career as a filmmaker. The fact this is all free blows me away! Tusen takk Studio Binder!
I'm so glad you're covering Camera Gear next, always found that to be intimidating but your videos are always easy to understand while going over specific details. Can't wait!
Lately I have been thinking about writing a screenplay and producing/directing it. Never went to film school whatsoever. Somehow, I found this channel and holy molly man, this series are so helpful. I also registered on StudioBinder app and it's so intuitive and helpful. Thanks a lot for what you are guys doing, this is big effort what you're teaching in here, keep it up guys, really, such an awesome content!
These videos are extremely well made, and I appreciate the effort it takes to make your points clearly, concisely and - most impressively - simply enough for the lay person to understand. This is a very hard ballance to strike. Sometimes of course, it does result in oversimplification - in this case, talking about deep/shallow focus as simply an artistic choice, not a technical hurdle to overcome. But without going into light-sensitivity, aperture and focal length, it is hard to explain why you might not be able to achieve deep focus on a certain shot (or be shallower than you'd like). You also didn't go into the effects different focal lengths have on the same kinds of shots - the inaccurately named "lens-compression". Maybe an upcoming episode?
100%! We have a new series in the works on the Exposure Triangle where we dive deep into the technicals of Aperture, ISO, and Shutter Speed, and how they all affect each other.
This is, I think, one of the most overlooked tools by new filmmakers. The amount of students who use the shallowest focus possible purely because it looks more "cinematic". Great series.
i had read the article on your website covering all theses...the one that explains the 6 aspects of a shot, and i thought there could not be a better resource to understand the wide range of items that need to be considered while watching/making a scene....but these series of videos u r making are even better than that! thank you so much for all the information you share...the variety of references and the content is simply awesome! YOU have helped me a lot to be able to watch movies more consciously and therefore like and enjoy them more
StudioBinder 😂 that could be it. Perhaps the algorithm knows my every movement too 🤷🏼♂️ Either way I’m loving these videos, cheers for all the well written, well put together, well edited and well narrated tips 👍
I wish this way of teaching can be used by film schools also . The playlists are so helpful and the videos are amazing. Whenever I see this channel I want to learn . Can you please make a video on different types of lenses and their specifications too ?
I just want you to know your content is so good that it is the only channel I've ever hit the notification bell on. Keep up with the content rich educational stuff and you will be at a million subs in no time. Happy holidays friend.
So glad I stumbled on this video. I’ve been using deep, shallow and rack focus but did not know about the split and tilt shift focus. Such great use to convey a story. Thank you for making this video.
Thank you so much for teaching this sir. Don't want a film school your UA-cam channel is a film school for the aspiring filmmakers. Best video and best series. Outstanding job guys keep rocking.....
I've been making videos for a while, but this is the base knowledge I've been missing! Kudos to this channel for these excellent videos! I'm going to watch this whole series, then I'm going to go back and watch it again and write notes!
I appreciate that real show camera angles and focus ,show to film excellent communication skills hats off, so iam lucky for waching this video's super duper hit styles,
I would love to see about Andrzej Sekula. You always talk about his works, but you never associate him with the amazing contribution he gave. Thank you.
I am learning so much. Thank you so much for posting these videos. When people ask where I went to film school. I will say I attended Studio Binder University .
These are so well put together! And give away so many great ways of thinking about different techniques and gives me ideas on what "rules" or guidelines I could break. Please keep it up! How long does it take to get one video completed? From start to finish? How many hands are touching each project? Someone over there loves film, it comes through for sure!
Hey guys...Just wanted to ask that where is the 3rd episode of the "Shot List" series....It is absolutely stunning and innovative videos for aspiring filmmakers around the globe....Thank you for this...Great work...
Thank you studio binder ❤️ I had love on film making from my childhood.. But I didn't had an opportunity to learn in Film school . Because of you i am learning through this .. Love from INDIA
man the split diopter is just something else.. i saw hateful 8 few times and it always felt somewhat weird, i thought they had two cameras on a rig with different focus and stitched it together in post.. this is something else, wow
Why going to film school when you have StudioBinder? I'm a director myself and I've learned everything I know through them and by watching movies. Best film channel😍
Omg 😳 I found myself using some of the techniques that I don’t really know about already to explain the feeling! Thank you so so much for making this really fabulous videos! Really need to know the names to proper using 💜✨
I today recognise there is no ads..if so...I would urge the creator to monetize it...because your content is beautiful and I can watch ad for your content.....thank you...❤🎉❤❤🎉

So is that shot in Jaws, when Martin sees the shark attack on the beach, a rack focus?

Studio Binder is amazing! I had so much trouble planning my short. Now I did the rest of the planning in one day!!!
That's great! Nice hustling
Invaluable source of information! Usually, you'd get all this by working 30 or 40 years with the best DoP's out there. Talk about maximizing time!
BEST FILM TEACHER! Loved this episode. Thank you StudioBinder, really appreciate this type of content. Can't wait for the next episode
Glad you liked it! Next episode at the end of August!
StudioBinder Worth the wait!👌🏾 Thank you from South Africa 🇿🇦
Wow, this channel is REALLY good, so well articulated as to not only what there is but WHY someone would use it.
As an actor starting my filmmaking journey, these videos are incredible. Thank you for all the amazing content.
This Ultimate Guide series is AMAZING!!! Thank you StudioBinder!

I'm not a filmmaker but i love doing photography and acting, i hope your videos will help me in my journey.... Thanks a lot sir!
This is a dope video. I have most of this tools and never really knew how you use them.
This is the best channel to learn about filmmaking. ❤️
Split diopter can be done using two takes and the invisible split-screen method AKA split comping, no need for specialised lens.
Thanks 🙏🏽
True! We just wanted to show how to do it all in camera
Does it really matter tho? What matters is the technique of two different focus distances coexisting in the same shot to create uneasiness
to clarify, I wasn't criticising. these studio binder videos are exceptional. I was just adding extra options. :)
