Constant Creation

- Filming projects take a lot of time to setup, and unless you are doing consistent client work they are often decently spread out. For me recently, I have found shooting tiny 'Micro projects' has really helped keep my creativity alive, and given me a chance to stretch my creative legs. The great thing about shooting tiny personal filming projects is that you can make mistakes, experiment wildly and completely fail without it being a huge issue. Something I plan to do a lot more often in the future!

I should clarify - I have shot small personal projects in the past. But I always had a ‘reason’ to shoot them. For some reason it never quite dawned on me to just go and film for the sake of filming. Decide on the plan as I go out the door!
Hi mumbo
Mumbo who would you say is your favorite movie director and why as well as your favorite short film or any other freelance director.
Yes saameee
Mumbo grain is always taking that door of yours 😂
Ok I’ll just not-
Who is this grain character!?!
“I consider myself a filmmaker, but don’t spend a lot of time actually filming.”
Man, I feel that. The eternal struggle.
That hit me too, in a different way. I consider myself a guitarist but I don't spend nearly as much time playing as I should. Gotta get over the excuses and just go for it, right?
Stephen Archuleta I felt that
I love that you've given Simon, Garfunkle's moustace in your avatar. I always felt sorry for him: he was missing out.
Same, but with animation specifically. Like I had to ask someone if I could call myself an animator despite not actually doing it all that much, and they're like, "Dude. Like 70% of the time it takes to animate something is spent in planning and post anyway."
Yeah that's the same with me and writing.....like I have ideas and all these cool stories I want to write.
When your explaining a problem about not filming so you film a film about not filming
Big brain moment

Mumbo immediately looks like 5 years younger with his longer hair. I like it!
Have you seen his old hair. You do not want to go back.
@@nyltiac169 I have seen it, in his 100.000 sub vid. None of that neatly shaped hair
And also his t-shirt that makes him look younger as well
Dante van Gemert oh god you are lucky cuz it’s not a good look
no, he looks 5 years
Sometimes you don't need much of a story, it's just the creativity.

Almost poetic lol 😂

Hey Mumbo! I feel you on the 'actually getting out there and filming" part, a lot. When I went to study at SVA New York, I did a double major in advertising and film (I'm normally only a ad major but I want to get more into film) and my professor told me something really important and I feel like it's something all filmmakers should hear. Guy's a genius. He said: "once you have the idea that you have no idea what to film, get out immediately because it means your brain is hungry for new things to film, coming up empty is an opportunity." And even though that's simple as hell. It was so important to have him say that. Love your stuff, wish I had your gear, keep shooting!
Love this! 🤟
@@Mumbo the first heart from mumbo I have ever seen .
Your professor is definitely smart, def knows what he’s talking about
heh almost like he went to school for it
I love the little * punch * every time he hits the plant.
*huge plant punch*
He's hoarding cameras.
And leave the plant alone, Mumbo
ya that poor plant he is just hitting it :(
plants lives matter too
**plant punch**
Lol
Poor plant
Pesky plant
I'm a visual artist and I've heard it stressed time and time again the importance of daily drawing. For some reason it never occurred to me that the same thing would be applicable to filmmaking. Why did this video blow my mind?
0:35 poor plant
0:51 poor plant
2:42 poor plant
4:32 poor plant
5:30 poor plant
What has my life become
I’m glad everyone has respect for Mumbos filming passion and aren’t bringing hermicraft up every 10 seconds!
you just did bring it up
^ Yeah! What I was boutta say.
@@chrislikestoskate2307 you get the point though, like not every comment is when is the next hermicraft but more of an appreciation for his filming work
You just did
Me: "Mumbo when the next hermitc--"
Me: *reads comment*
Me: " Hey Mumbo great video"
The War Doctor: "Are you capable of speaking without flapping your hands about?"
Mumbo Jumbo: "Yes!... No..."
Lol yeah
Yes. A fellow whovian. Great reference.
also 2:30 there's a Tile TARDIS shop
Lol
Filmy what? Filmy wilmy?
My favourite part of this video is that little “cya” wave you did, made me smile and chuckle abit. Love how you push people to do what they love, telling us that we can do it, no matter what. Unless you’re in quarantine. But brilliant video Mumbo!
Imagine if mumbo was in the next fast and furious
Yes
TBH Id much rather see his work in a nature documentary.
@@syntaxerror9994 You are so incredibly right in that.

I enjoy the inclusion of your early morning shots. I love stuff like that personally. Just early morning shots of quiet locales. Just something oddly peaceful about it I guess (not exactly sure).
I guess it's just a preference for some, that find seeing the still quiet before the day starts as something serene. Personally it.. almost annoys me, and I find early morning shots to be mostly unenjoyable. Which is probably because of my love of the night, and the cold/isolation related to it, instead of the day and the brightness and the people etc.
It's just largely subjective
Mumbo, you’re right, sometimes it’s great to get out and film for the fun of it, because you don’t just learn, but you also love what you do. It’s like that for a lot of things, really. Thanks for reminding me of that. :)
And don’t worry about the hair, you’re still the same cheery, silly, handsome person with a professional flair!
Mumbo:
I’m sorry that I have long hair
Me: you look just the same
Jesus Christ,how much equipment does he have!
same thought! He is just like: I have a pocket and a RED and so on Me: Oh my sony can 1080p
Way to much
I don’t think cameras were invented in Jesus’s time just saying
Alot!
@@jakubrks That is actually a very good point
OKAY BUT your filming skills are so amazingg💝💝💝💞💝💞 like even the photos! The lighting, position, etc are just SLICK

Who are the two people who disliked the video when it hasn't even been 5 minutes?
People from Australia
Edit:Lmao so many people don't get this joke
Haters....
They had playback speed set to 2x and were upset the video was too fast and short.

@ferre smeets, you need an oxford comma
Hey wassup mumbo youre my inspiration
The dislikes are people who don’t like his long hair
BRUHH WTF IV SEEN U COMMENT EVERYWHERE
Can u do lessons on lighting and stuff like a series I really want to get into photography but I'm not very good with things like angles and lighting love ur channel and would love to see a series. Thx
I’d love to see you film some landscapes
That's what I love about filming. You can plan it for months and have a brilliant outcome, but you can also just have a spontaneous morning of filming and the end result is just as strong.
Mumbo just be throwing shade to Android.
“You can use an iPhone”
“There’s some gorgeous shots taken on iPhone”
Fun fact my older android phone (which wasn't decked out with a fancy camera) took better photos than my current one
Granted both photos are blurry the moment you zoom in in any capacity but at least the old ones were in focus :>
As a professional actor, I hope to one day work with you by chance. That’s all I have to say.
Hello fellow cat
@@nyltiac169 Likewise, Feline friend
That's such good advice, people always get hung up on having the "right gear" to do a project when it's usually right in front of them. I find myself making the same excuses sometimes with my videos, then I realize I just have to start doing and it all comes together!
As a young filmmaker I honestly feel like this is the number one thing that holds filmmakers back, not having a reason to shoot something. Well done
how to be a filmmaker:
- think about stuff that would be epic
- look at cool tech and buy some good stuff
- plan the film
- just film something random and try to make something from it
:D
Wow I’ve never been this early to a vid before
Mumbo!
Here's a little thought. I know that you think too much. I know that can make it seem hard sometimes to create, to be happy with projects, and then subsequently get the motivation to go out and create more, but I just want to say the following:
Your Ideas Inspire. You constantly inspire myself, and others, to go create. To go make new things. To go make old things new. To just get out there and do it.
There's a couple of videos I have in my favorites playlist that I turn to when I'm lacking (in any area). This video will become part of that small, meaningful collection. This is because this video will remind me of the thoughts I had when watching it, and the feeling of motivation that came along with those thoughts.
Thanks Oli, hope you read this mate.
This video kind of feels like a call out as an artist. I sometimes spend weeks or months not drawing anything because I can't make something perfect. Also, buying new art supplies. Constantly.
I love seeing your films. They're so beautiful
Hey Mumbo, love your vids.
For once I’m actually early!

Epic.
I think the coolest thing about filming is that everyone can look at a beautiful film and say it looks amazing, but it takes a true genius to shape a scene to look incredible.
This is literally the big boy channel, when you start watching this channel you know you have grown up.

You're first
This was SO inspiring. I would like to become something of a filmmaker myself but I never found the right time / courage to actually do it. You were so insipring right until the last second when you made me remember that I'm in quaratine. xD Nevertheless I really appreciated the video and your message! Wish you all the best.
That little comment at the end about just shooting with an iPhone, you just pumped me up even more. I have been using the excuse I don't have a real camera to not go out and do photography, but I can. And I have some beautiful photos using an iPhone. So now I want to take photo right now. Even though it's dark outside. And I'm injured.
Whatever I have a photo in my mind I'm gonna go make it
I had to go out yesterday and take pictures of an ecosystem for my online class, and at first, I wasn't really interested in doing it. Then, after getting my dad's good camera, an on-the-go lunch, and hopping on my bike, I found myself outside the local cemetery. Once I got in the rhythm of taking pictures, I really started to enjoy myself, and stayed to eat lunch there! I still can't wait until the quarantine is done so I can do a photoshoot with my friend for their cosplay, but finding little things to do behind the camera now will definitely help in the long run.
why would anyone want to dislike any of Mumbo's vids?
They missed the button I Guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Its weird that he actually in front of you speaking, not showing that mushtache guyシ︎
Lmao
Cool face thing how did you make it?
He doesn't have a mushtache anymore
Yes
That is such as great statement. People would ask other people who are really good at what they do, or stay in shape, or be healthy, or whatever, for their secret recipes. And most often then not, they just get disappointed when they hear there's no "secret" at all. If you really want to be good at something, you just... go do it, with great consistency and persistence, for a very, very long time. It's incredibly boring. But one day, you'll wake up and realize yourself that you're better at what you do than most people around you.
It SEEMS obvious but seriously there is not a lot of great filmmakers out there and there are so many more people sitting around having all of the equipment and doing almost nothing with it. Myself included. Every other commenter here included. This widely successful UA-camr included, up until recently. This was a good video to make, and I found it inspiring.
Thank you for sharing this experience with us. It's so inspiring to see a person I really respect learn something new, and manages to change something it himself. I have a hobby, photography. I have my mom's old camera, and take it on trips and stuff. You really made me want to just go out and find something interesting to film or take photos of. Keep going!
At the time this was commented, this channel had 444k subscribers.
You inspired me. Tomorrow I'll wake up at 4.30 and go shoot some gorgeous shots at the seaside. Thanks man!
Mumbo in video: *Plant punches*
"Plant punch"
one of these days, the plant will file a report for domestic violence.
Being a film composer I have the same problem, I feel like that if it’s not a university composing assignment or for a filmmaker client, it’s really hard to work on anything. I enjoy client projects the most but I find them difficult because I don’t practice my own stuff. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for this Mumbo, I’ve been struggling with my confidence in filmmaking and it’s because I feel like my equipment is inadequate. Seeing that someone I look up to struggles with the same things eases my anxiety and moves me to get back out there. Keep creating, it means so much.
Im early but i still dont know what to say
when your so early you cant think of anything funny to say
ahaha wait
As an artist I've found one good way to "push" yourself is to leave all your best gear at home. Get out there with your "least powerful" whatever and push it to it's limits and you will push at your own.
Good times
I think these low stakes , freestyle mini-projects are really helpful for you. Most inspiration happens when you’re not trying to create anything.
Me: sees no comments or views
UA-cam: sike that’s the wrong number!!!!!!
Haha funny! Not

Hi Mumbo!
I honestly love the aesthetics of the films. It’s just so pretty and simple
I'm personally not a filmmaker, but a 2D artist and I did the exact same thing with my art projects. I always needed a reason to make them. Either university, inktobober, mermay and all those challenges and "prompt months" that are out there. But... I kinda lost the feeling of just drawing for the sake of it. So this year, I set myself the goal, that I will just keep drawing, no matter if there's a reason to or not. So by now, whenever I watch videos or movies, I have my sketchbook or iPad next to me so I can start on some random doodles. Some of them will be inspired by what I watch, some of them are absolutely random and I love it! It's been a lot of fun and I have learned so much as well by, sometimes semi-accidentally, trying out new things.
So yeah, what I'm trying to get at is just that, no matter who you are and what art it is you make, you don't always need a "real" reason for it. The art itself should be reason enough and hearing that once more in your video really just further encouraged me. Thanks, Mumbo!

I've been struggling with the will to do anything this quarantine at all. I've been in quarantine for about two months, and have been only focused on finishing my college semester. I love to paint and draw but have been putting them off because I didn't feel like making any major painting or drawing. I forgot the first rule of being creative, which is do what you love everyday. So thanks for the reminder Mumbo,
Mumbo's voice is so fucking calming for me I could listen it for hours talking about nothing and I'd be happy
I loved this video, and it spoke to me a lot - I’m not a film maker, but I am a writer and musician. I often fall into that trap - “well if I have this better style of pen or a nicer keyboard I’ll write better” or “if I have [insert music accessory], I’ll be able to practice more efficiently and better… when in reality it is often so much more about just writing more or playing more music with the plethora of tools I already have.
Mate. This is so relatable. Ya know, ACTUALLY doing something... takes a lot of energy to get going, but really most of it is in your mind, mental blockers, called being a "procrastinator" in truth, we all are a bit. until. we get going, get a routine. (it counts for evrey kind of activity)
Thank you for making a video on it, really an important topic which needs more attention
Same! I procrastinate so much, thanks for the reminder just to go out and start filming whatever!! It doesn't even matter, I might as well practice
Mumbo really has become an inspiration to me. I've learned quite a bit from these short 5-10 minute videos.
I've been trying to get into filmmaking. I made a short little 60 sec film with the idea "home alone" in mind and edited it all together. no colour grading and filmed on a note 9. it kinda inspired me to want to learn how to do all of it better. once i watched my 60 sec clip, I realised that it was insanely good for someone who didnt know what they were doing. I've been learning colour grading and also just filming random things around the house. I dont really have a point here so I'm sorry I wasted your time if you read this far
I feel like Mumbo is that one big friendly person that doesn't like to fight, with a lot of patience, but will literally delete you out of your existence and will utterly beat you up if you actually try to hurt him or his friends.
Just doing something is actually one of the best ways to get better at doing something. I take Speech and Debate and one of the events is literally making it up on the spot.
Yay! Another Film Channel Video!
I'm not a filmmaker in anyway, but this video inspired me. Because the same principle applies in every type of creative craftsmanship.
I consider myself a musician and partly a song writer. But I rarely work on new songs. Just continue playing the same stuff over and over again.
And now, after seing this. I came to the same conclusion, just do it. And things will often work themselves out.
Thanks!
I think your filming talents are summed up just by this video. Even just the setting of you talking looked amazing; 10/10 lighting.
You, mumbo are a mad person, I love your stuff so much😉
I haven't thought about it in that way before, no matter the project really, it's just about doing something. Thanks Mumbo, I needed this
This concept works for any creative outlet you’re involved in. You have to just DO IT. Try new things even without great inspiration.
BMW 2002 tii and a w204 C63. I love Mumbo’s taste in cars.
Mumbo has a BMW 2002!!!! That's one of my all time favorite cars. Very cool
I love the little led warm light in the background, I heard about it first in a Marquese Brownlee video, who mentioned he got it from someone else. Its a great touch and really draws your eyes to your face, in dont know how it works, but its sick.
Absolutely genius. It really had to be said explicitly
Mumbo! Stop punching your plant! He/She has feelings too!
Also, really nice micro-project (I liked the name:) ) I've never really been that interested in filming stuff, but after I began to watch you and your documentarys, I've just been really inspired. I've gone out with my cousin a few times to shoot sunrises, sunsets, and little fun sketches and just our days. It's been a blast and it's all because of you, so thank you! I hope you keep doing what you're doing and keep inspiring!
Stay safe and stay creative!
Getting out and actually shooting is by far the hardest part, shooting, editing, color grading and everything else post-shoot comes easily. Getting past your own head and getting the confidence to shoot will always be the hardest.
Ik that feeling. When I took a film class(which then got me loving film making and made me change my major to film) we were given about a month pre production, 3 days to film and almost a month to edit. I currently have 3 scripts in the works and the pre production paper work for a music video done. Its a lot of work but in the end is worth it
The "you can do it" fills ne with motivation, thank you.
Thank you for making this, Mumbo! I'm learning Digital Media in school and am working on a project where I have to basically begin pre-production on a video - but I have to come up with the idea from scratch😅 Watching this helped me feel better and inspired me to just shoot something. Thank you, Mumbo!
Yeeeaah a new mumbo video ! This is the video I look forward the most any time.
As a writer, it took me a couple of years to figure this out. Now, because I have nothing better to do, I like to sit outside and find something to write about. It doesn't need to be my big project or something for school, I just write to write.
Mumbo: I have too much camera's
Also mumbo: releases a video that isn't 60 fps
You NEED to hock up with the Corridor Crew!!!!!!
Thanks, Mumbo. I will! Got all my stuff already out and ready to go from a thing I had to throw together on Thursday night. And I'll be out today anyway.
I love this side of Mumbo
Can I just say that *I FREAK'N LOVE YOUR BMW!!!!!!*
Duuude, I love these 4fps slightly off clips side by side!! What a nice discovery :)) And also: you talk from my heart. I am just starting out and what worked best for me is just going out every weekend and just film. Also also :) the Last film I did, I got up at 4 am, biked out into the woods and found this unbelievably beautiful lake with fog on it and the sunrise .. It's so dope to just go out and film!! :)
Poor plant-Chan she didn’t deserve to be treated like that Mumbo ;^;
I always take pictures when my family and I go on holiday somewhere in the world. Funnily enough, even though I miss it during the year, I never actually thought of just going outside and take pictures. I may just do it...
I use these videos to fall asleep and that’s not a bad thing, for some reason when there are informational things make me fall asleep
