I love how humble you are. You say you're by far not the most experienced or professional person but you've gotten to the point where you're inspiring people from not just at a beginning standpoint but also a professional one. For the record I think you're at the professional one.
Thank for sharing Danny, really interesting approach. Starting to shoot on C200 (and BMPCC 6k) made me to start story board almost everything I film these days - mainly because the raw files are so huge that you can’t afford to run around shooting anything you wish (like I did with EOS R for example), but as a result it just shifts focus on a pre-production giving more structure and consistency and just in general making me a better filmmaker.
It's unbelievable that this wealth of knowledge is available for free! As always, this video has been quite insightful. Keep up the good work Danny and I look forward to your next projects.
Such an amazing short film. After I watched it, I was thinking about it for a long time. Also appreciate you putting this BTS to give us an idea of the thing. Hopefully, I am going to make some short film soon. Thanks!
This couldn’t have came at a more perfect time. Planning out my first proper spec work film and on the phase of writing a storyboard for all of it and this really helps getting more insight on how to do that. Keep it up!
Can't get enough of your videos. Love watching and rewatching for inspiration and reference. Your shots are so beautifully composed! Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Currently one of my favorite youtubers, your short films are really enjoyable and the picture quality is amazing absolutely love how you color grade your videos. I am pretty new to filmaking as a seriuos thing, I've always loved it but just recently I decided to start properly learning and start looking at it with a more profesional eye.Your channel really inspires me and I learn a lot from you. Keep up the amazing work Danny
On my plate today was creating a storyboard for a brand video. I hated my old way of doing storyboards so I am going to give this a try! Perfect timing
Man at least one time in every video you make a point that hits home for me - in this video - it's that spec work is for those creative muscles, not necessarily for the brand to see. Cheers Danny!
You introduced me to Milanote in an earlier video - changed my life. It has improved my client experience which I now charge more for and the finished product of the videos and photos are better. Thank you for sharing your process. Also, there were small details in the video that I didn't know until I watched this BTS video. Congrats on the spec ad - it was awesome.
Incredible breakdown. I've come to a point in my career where I'm transitioning from commercial work to short films/documentaries like I did when I was a kid. The creative burnout I've experienced has been challenging, as I've been documenting the journey, but I'll be sure to try this process out to see what sticks.
Very helpful to watch! You made me start milanote. I have used it for many projects now and even showed clients parts of the planning. This has made me land jobs. so thank you
Thank you for this fantastic walk-through! The video itself was amazing and I really like how you explained the process. Getting more and more interested in filmmaking after a few years of making simple travel videos and your videos are just so insightful. Definitely going to focus on doing some projects like this in 2022 to level up my filmmaking skills.
Danny I just want to say that you're amazing. Amazing how you create ever story and film🙏🏻💪🏼. Every Monday ready to watch. You're my biggest inspiration thanks for inspiring :)
You always inspiring me, Danny. Seriously, I'd love can find your channel :). Your vids helped me to solve and develop the pre-production for my final test at college, big thanks from your fan! Hope me can graduate next year and be as good as you to inspiring creative people!
Thanks so much for taking the time to help us man! It's amazing to see how deep the planning goes. Part that opened my mind up was "what if we show how he pooped his pants" lmao genius. You're an amazing filmmaker and a great inspiration! Keep it up
I could watch a year’s worth of BTS on just this little film Danny, and be happy 🤗🙏. I’m interested in how you find/work with actors too. Now you’ve motivated me for milanote too …
I love your videos so much! I have been filming everything I can and learning how to edit and tell a story. I always come back to your for inspiration. Thank you! :)
Hi Danny! How are you color grade footages so good? Is it all about camera you are using? I have just sony a6500, it can record only 8bit footage, so it means that I won't be able to colorgrade my videos like you do?)
Would love to hear more about lighting for this particular piece. It looked like it was pretty minimal, but would be interested to hear how you plan for lighting conditions.
Showing how the budget looked really helped me a lot. I'm in the middle of shooting a spec myself, but, because it's my first one, I don't have the money to hire actors or crew, so it's all free work. Hard thing with that is scheduling. If money isn't involved people can't drop what they're doing, especially since I'm doing this for free. Might have bit off more than I can chew with this first project but I'm learning! :D
Danny I have a few questions about your workflow with the fx3 (I'm considering buying it): - Do you record externally for prores raw or internally with log? - Which do you prefer to shoot in, prores raw or log? - What do you color grade in?
look at you now Danny! so proud of you. From shorts to full length feature film!
Please Milanote keep supporting him so that we could see more beautiful and artistic content like this. 🙏 dude your awesome.
I love how humble you are. You say you're by far not the most experienced or professional person but you've gotten to the point where you're inspiring people from not just at a beginning standpoint but also a professional one. For the record I think you're at the professional one.
Thank you man!
Your calm, serious “I’m a 27 year old man and I almost pooped myself earlier this year” comment killed me 😂
Hahahaha

Great info. Got a few great ideas from this for my first mini doc about to start to shoot about my friend!
It's unbelievable that this wealth of knowledge is available for free!
As always, this video has been quite insightful. Keep up the good work Danny and I look forward to your next projects.

Hey Danny, great video! Man, where do you find these examples images to use on your outlines?
Incredible breakdown. I've come to a point in my career where I'm transitioning from commercial work to short films/documentaries like I did when I was a kid. The creative burnout I've experienced has been challenging, as I've been documenting the journey, but I'll be sure to try this process out to see what sticks.
Thanks man! Just keep pushing on through it
what are the pros of short film/docs? vs commercial work? can one make money
im going to have to watch this again and again but i love it! thank you. :)

Milanote is amazing!
Hi Danny! How are you color grade footages so good? Is it all about camera you are using? I have just sony a6500, it can record only 8bit footage, so it means that I won't be able to colorgrade my videos like you do?)
You are truly inspiring Danny! I hope one day we could be as good as you. ❤️

Would love to hear more about lighting for this particular piece. It looked like it was pretty minimal, but would be interested to hear how you plan for lighting conditions.
Amazing video as always!
Thanks man! Mostly natural / bouncing/ and one source for interiors

Thank you, Danny! You're so inspiring!❤️❤️❤️
Thanks man!!
Danny, you´re a legend. Greatest inspiration for me!! Thanks for all your breakdowns ❤️
Thanks so much!
So helpful. Thank you Danny
Thanks Alonso!
Do you usually shoot in 4k and then export in 1080p? Do you decide what you shoot on 1080 for ease of editing?
Thank you, I needed this.
Thank you!!
Great video Danny! My FX3 and Sigma 24-70 arrives tomorrow, have my spec ad in the works so all ready to go. 😁
Enjoy it man!
Love your stuff man, could you make the Milanote storyboard available to view by dropping a link or something !
hi danny! what calendar software are you using?
Good stuff Danny!
Thanks as always man!
Your hair bro 🔥
Dope video !! Again
Thanks man!
Love it bro! Super inspirational and will be shooting my new balance spec ad next week so these have been super helpful. Especially milanote😅❤
Goodluck on the shoot bro!
I see those snazzy cameras in the background Danny ;)
Danny I have a few questions about your workflow with the fx3 (I'm considering buying it):
- Do you record externally for prores raw or internally with log?
- Which do you prefer to shoot in, prores raw or log?
- What do you color grade in?
awesome vid
Thank you!
Everybody loves this video clearly! 410 likes and no dislikes - your the goat Danny
Hahah don’t worry the haters are on their way
@@DannyGevirtz how anyone could dislike this is beyond me lol
