What's your favorite simple filmmaking trick?
Watching Film Riot videos and copying what they do.
Film Riot my favorite trick is actually masking. When you film it with the clean shot it really does make life so much easier
Using vertical blinds already in your home combined with outside daylight as an adjustable scrim for back or fill lights, but also I assume this technique could be used to adjust key light, as well. And run-on sentences, like the one I just wrote.
None.
I'm a fiction writer, but your channel both inspires me, in a general sense, and educates me, in a sense more specific, by putting me up on the visual aspect common to all storytelling, if one of the aims of the storyteller is to be as vivid as possible, which, duh, no shit, of course vivid is a primary goal.
I like this channel a great deal.
See you guys next upload.
By the way I had a Pavlov's dog reaction. The moment I heard the Domain.com music I immediately began laughing. Kinda scary, but, congratulations...I guess
My favorite is color grading, it might seem simple, but such small adjustments go a long way...
I really enjoyed the part where you talked about lighting
Same here! Such an easy trick and so easy to understand.

I’m one of those UA-cam users who never comments on things, but who spends an awful lot of time on this platform watching videos. It occurs to me that I’ve been watching Film Riot religiously for 7 or 8 years now. I’m 21 years old and about to finish up at university (studying television), and the stuff I’ve learned from you guys has completely set me on course to do filmmaking for the rest of my life, I have absolutely no doubt in my mind. What I’ve learned from you helped me win a big prize in My Røde Reel back in 2017, and the big projects I have set out for this year, which will hopefully kickstart my career, would not be happening if it weren’t for the countless hours of work you guys have put into making this channel what it is. People talk about educational UA-cam channels in the context of Maths, Science, History etc. But you guys are by far the best educational channel on this platform, and don’t ever forget it. Thanks for everything Ryan.
Wow! Thank you so much for this! I can't tell you how thrilled we are to read things like this. And congrats on winning My Rode Reel.
Wow this is amazing! Quite awesome to see people like you. Too bad in my country this work doesn't pay enough to warrant a career :'(
I'm not crying. You're crying.
That's awesome Oscar! Congrats on almost finishing school and good luck!
wow this is so wholesome
Ah, the brotherly love is strong in this one...
if you been following film riot from the beginning, you ll understand how much they love each other.
After nearly ten years of watching these videos, I know most of the techniques shown, but I continue to watch to learn those little things that make my job and workflow easier.
Today's lesson for me: The Mask Feather Tool.
I did not know about this and I can honestly say that I will now use it all the time.
Thanks, Film Riot!
Same for me.. Have always been using After Effects on all of my projects and didn't realise they had this implemented. Very helpful!
Same here Jacob! Great to meet a fellow veteran Film Riot fan!
This is literally the best video ever
Josh: "F you!"
Ryan: "Love you"
Josh: ".... Love you too!"
That got me laughing by surprise.
Favorite part of the video haha!
This was literally the most eye-opening episode film riot has done in a long time...maybe even EVER. We need more like this!!!
I've been doing the indie thing for almost a decade now and I'm currently working on a 30 minute short thats a bigger scale than I ever thought I could handle, I just wanted to say thanks for being there along the way with me guys.
Just saw you in the comments bro. Had to say wussup and I'm currently working on a short myself! I'm one of your subscribers if you're wondering.
@@TheStoryofYote Awesome dude! and I'm one of your subscribers too, whats up?
Film riot you guys are awesome! I’ve been watching your videos for years now and I’m finally confident enough with my own short VFX that I’ve started posting them to my UA-cam!
Wouldn’t be where I’m at without you guys
That’s incredible. Send the link our way once you post it.
Film Riot ua-cam.com/video/fJdpMmikHpc/v-deo.html been a fan for years 😄
Love using this trick in my shorts! Great way to get a high budget look with a few Led and practical lights 🙌
Top notch episode.
Dude. That night-time trick. That's incredible and I'm absolutely going to make use of that at some point! Thank you!
Same! Honestly, it comes down to being dedicated and patient on making the frame look good! Good luck!
I’ve been watching Film Riot for many years now. I appreciated this episode SO much.
Ok that stitching separate lights together is genius!
"I saw grandma!?" Classic. You guys have always been highly entertaining.
Really love the lighting pass on exterior technique! Super handy!
Wow you guys... just wow. Having been working in the industry for the last eight years I’ve tried to keep an eye on what you were doing, but I felt like we kind of grew apart. But this is just such an impressive idea to share. I am stunned and impressed that I haven’t taken the time to think of this before. Especially with as much as I talk about the joys of lighting in CGI where you can have invisible lights. That term! I literally use that term all the time! My hats off to you for this one.
I'm just starting out (massive understatement) but I love these videos and the ways you work around equipment limitations at times. It emboldens me to test out some more ambitious ideas using similar techniques!
Wow, these are some amazing tips! It's been a while since I've heard of something so practical and effective! Thank you!
Film Riot always seems to get the right tutorial out at the right time. I'm just about to make a short film about anonymous vampires (as in AA meetings, but with vampires) and this light removal effect comes in very handy for the long shot of the people sitting together as it's hard to hide any lights there.
This channel has taught be everything I know about film. Thanks film Riot! From Kenya, Africa!
The tutorials are fantastic, as always, and the comedy is actually begining to be funny. More natural, less forced than earlier stuff. Great work all around.
Thanks so much.
Awesome VIDEO !!!! I am watching you guys now for like 2 years and learned so many things!!! Love your channel, your work, everything!!!
I love you guys. Ryan. Josh.
Honestly, I learned so so much from you guys than I did in uni since I watched you guys from the very beginning so I was already prepped with filmmaking knowledge when I started class, more than the other kids. I owe you guys so much. My first job was a freelance videographer with skills I learned from Film Riot. Thank you. I love you guys.
Thanks for watching! So glad the show has helped you. :)
That's awesome! Only from learning from Film Riot? Congrats man! Looking forward to seeing more of your work!
@@StorybyDiego Yeah Diego. Pretty much Film Riot and UA-cam tutorials. Honestly mate, feel free to check my channel for content. I've got videos from when I was 13 to now. There's playlist of short film, sketches and vlogs and whatnot. I pretty much grew up with UA-cam and Film Riot 😊
This is the most helpful tutorial I have seen in a long time, especially for night shots on indie projects.
SAME HERE! I was just thinking that.
I think sponsor gag is my all time favorite. And thank you for this tutorial! Extremely informative.
Wow, that has to be the most useful information on filming I've seen since your Guerrilla Filmmaking class. And, obviously, lighting a scene at night has been a huge problem for me. I gave up on a specific location and moved (50 feet, but still) because I couldn't get it lit without the lights in the shot. With this idea I could have gotten the shots I wanted. Thanks! :^)
your videos are so amazing, whenever i watch, i always learn something new. thank you so much
Great video! I have learned so much from you guys over the years! Thanks for all the work you put into making videos.
Brilliant idea.
I've been planning a short film in a dark forest, didn't think of this! Brilliant! Thanks!!
You've just reminded me why I love you guys!!! Thanks
Great ideas. Really opened my mind to a wide range of possibilities.
That last tip was very useful, thank you for that!
OMG... so obvious, but I never thought of this before! This is a really helpful tip. I've been nervous for a shoot I need to do because it's in a few apartments I haven't seen before, so it's definitely peace of mind to know I have the option of keeping lights in frame! Lighting gear is something I've delayed in getting so it's really helpful to find work arounds like this until I put in the money for the right gear.
Always something valuable for all of us!! Thank you!
You guys are still at it. Major inspiration
Super helpful for my upcoming short based at night. Thank you
"I saw Grandma.
" - Josh, 2018
WOW!
You are INSANE...!!!!!!
Learnt a lot.
Thanks Film Riot!
Just amazing. I love you guys and what you bring to the filmmaking community. Been rocking with y’all since Josh looked like a little kid lol!!!
This is such an easy trick! Thank you so much for the tip Film Riot!
Massive Well-done Ryan! Absolutely brilliant🙂👌🎬
I LOVE YOU GUYS!
AfterEffects is absolutely genius. Very helpful, thank you!
That trick for lighting a background with a single flashlight is insane.
This was really helpful! I'm in the process of writing a film right now and I only have two cheap lights. Thanks as always!
Thank you for this video. I've been thinking about raising my production value for my UA-cam channel, and I think these tips helped a lot. Lights are important for a clean image.
Relighting & Light painting of a Scene. This is a saver.
Thank you! Very usefull instument not only for the lights! May have use this one.
Oh wow. This episode was lit from so many angles
Very helpful, very nice, thank you for showing the different techniques and explanation.
Loved it, please more like this, while the pod cast/answer questions episodes are good and informative I have missed your wicked sense of humour that come from these style of posts. So good !
Podcast style is Monday’s. Episodes like this are Thursday’s.
This is really a top notch episode
Thank you for this wonderful episode!
Thank you SOOOOO MUCH. I needed this video! I love you...
This is the best thing I've ever seen today!
Ok, the invisible light and multiple-pass light thing has got me all full of ideas :D
Reaaalllly awesome stuff doooooods!
Nice! That's some pretty bad ass film magic. Thanks for making this
I've been watching these dudes since I was a kid. Wow man!
7:12 OMG that is so clever !!!! Thanks Film Riot !!!!
The question remains... are the links below?
But seriously awesome pro tips guys. Glad you did this. I was stuck on removals and thus gave me some ideas to work with! Keep up the great work guys!
You guys are so educational *and* entertaining!
Still the best channel on the Tube!!
your last few videos have gotten very good.
Never thought of this. Very cool!
This was a great video, thank you!
Your videos are always AWESOME 👏
Perfect episode, thank you!
This is so freaking smart!!
OMG WHY HAVEN'T I THOUGHT OF THIS!?
MIND BLOWN!
LMAO! You guys are very funny and work together incredibly! Keep up the great videos.
Okay we get it! Thompson is incredible at VFX!
Nice old-school film riot we need more episodes like this
This is definitely a handy trick to use in post-production :)
WOW I would never think to do that!
Awesome tips! Thank you
Great Video Ryan ! The Last One Felt like Using Photoshop to do a Composite. Never thought we could Light in passes and do a heavy composite . the Layers in AE seems Endless though
Very inspirational!
You guys are amazing! Hopefully I ll get to work with you guys one day!
SO GOOD!!!
this was amazing
loved this ! Thx
It's nice to think of a film as a series of pixels on a big rectangle 24 of which go in a second. This means that if you don't have a way to capture something, you can still make the frames pixel by pixel, frame by frame if needed. But there are easier solution of-course... Like using compositing.
Great episode!
This is what I like... Although I knew everything... These are great tips!
I wish I could take a semester long After Effects class from you guys.
Welp, really could've used the mask feather tool a few weeks ago... Great episode!
"I saw grandma!" I love this show.
great works!
Who ITW would give this video a thumbs down!? Great video Ryan. Thanks!
Thanks man!
This video rocks!
Love you guys. You are the best 😅
thank you for this
oh i m lovin it !
Film Riot is life
this was great thank you
Without your tips and tricks, my filmmaking wouldn’t be what it is today.
