    Thanks for including this guys. Much appreciated!
    Remember...it’s important to know these rules, (same with lighting and the 180 degree line that are covered later) so you know why something looks natural to us as a viewer so you then know how to break it. Know why we do things classically so you can know how and when not too! If that makes sense!!

    • @Rock12402
      @Rock12402 6 років тому +85

      I'm in film school to and I agree. You learn way more by experimenting on your own and watching tutorials. The way I use college is for getting on sets and networking with people in the industry.

    • @alexmelillo1247
      @alexmelillo1247 6 років тому +10

      that's basically the only reason why I'd ever go to film school

    • @SimonHergott
      @SimonHergott 6 років тому +9

      It's a good cash grab for the crooked university systems we have here in North America. I'm sure you will make some good connections and get the most out of it. I think people interested in filmmaking would be better off studying writing or taking a philosophy course and putting their money towards gear and having the initiative to shoot and learn on their own.

    • @pabloalex2755
      @pabloalex2755 6 років тому +13

      The film degree is unncessary. You can still networking with people in the industry without use film school.

    (Sorry for my english, I'm greek)A lot of people are complaining about the lack of skits and humor in Film Riot compare to the past, but back then, a lot of people complained and said that the jokes are interfering with the information.I feel Ryan tries to keep the jokes away from the info and at the same time still putting funny videos out.But no matter what he does he can't please everyone.What I'm asking from the fans is a little bit of understanding.This guy works hard to give us great content every day.He works on all the Film Riot weekly videos,Short Films,maybe future feature films,the Triune Store e.t.c.(I know he's not working alone,but still...) and we as filmmakers should appreciate that.I'm not telling you not to say your opinion and/or complain but in every video now I read at least one or two comments talking about how great Film Riot used to be.I mean, don't you find these videos with mzed great????They give great info....... FOR FREE!!!! I personally loved the old ''era'' of Film Riot and I'm loving the new one also and every channel should grow and change.Maybe I'm overreacting and there's not an issue here but I felt like writting this comment.
    Keep up the good work guys!!!!!

      Emily wasn't so good simply because of her age - it was her delivery that counted for everything, and surely that ain't gonna change?

    • @MichelleLevasseur
      @MichelleLevasseur 6 років тому +2

      I think in a lot of ways it simply boils down to the 'crabs in a bucket' theory. They haven't progressed so they dislike it when others such as Film Riot do grow and share that growth with all of us. Somehow they believe that this diminishes them and so they must tear it down. Sad but it is a human condition just like the crabs. And such a simple fix to their 'problem'!! Just re-watch the older episodes and get your giggle on!

    The more work I do, the more I find I prefer longer lenses. I just love the look of them. I associate wide angles with emptiness, distance, loneliness, warped perception of reality, etc. based on how subjects usually fit into the frame. That still makes them a powerful story tool, because I can use that subtext to move the story along. I love this stuff so much!

    • @mr12aT
      @mr12aT 2 роки тому

      Cool man. Hey, which angles would suit best the lens on an iPhone 12 mini?

  • @praveshkhanal

    10:05 "Use a longer focal length to pull the background closer." That is exactly what I needed to make the background mountains appear larger in my 3D scene

    OMG! The clarity of knowledge is mind blowing. I understand it. Thank you. You helped me realize what goes where in my kit of lenses. I previously used to whip any lens onto whatever camera at any point and (zoom in post🙈🙉) fix it later. But no more. You saved my life!

  • @AydanM
