Totally overwhelmed by all the incredibly kind and supportive comments here. I see that a lot of people can relate, and I'm glad there's a valuable lesson here: breaks are healthy and sometimes necessary. Getting to communicate and reciprocate thoughts/ideas with all of you is what I missed most during my time off and I can't wait to continue that. Thanks again for the kindness and the support, let's make 2023 a great year!
I am happy that you’re oke. I got worried and sended you an dm on Instagram. Because you helped me with so much in my business. I learned so much from you. You inspire me since day 1!! I’m happy to see you back again!! Thanks for the update!!
please link with peter mckinnon
I’m personally glad you feel comfortable taking a break. You deserve one and just because we are over a month into the new year doesn’t mean this year can’t be a super great one! :) take you’re time, we will all be here patiently waiting! Also super happy you don’t have to commute anymore!
Totally with you! Do your thing. Its why you save for a rainy day for these much needed breaks. Hopefully everything is working out. Good for you.
Welcome back Daniel
You inspired a lot of people, have a break if you need to. You deserve it
Really appreciate that! 🙌
I totally agree. Thanks for the inspiration.
@@GhostShipMusic ^
It's not inspiration when you copy someone's work. Daniel is great, he's awesome actually, but I really hope other videographers would start developing their own style, instead of copying his.
appreciate the update & glad to know you'll. be back soon..... Look forward to seeing your new space & great new ideas....
You’ve helped me a lot in improving my camera game! Take the break you need champ💪🏽
The reason why I even got a camera is because of YOU!!
Seriously, inspiration from an individual is hard to come by sometimes.
Please keep posting anything & everything you can.
Thank you for showing me a new hobby because my growth fills me with happiness.
Thank you for your awesome content over the years. We missed you but I totally understand the grind. Happy things are progressing. Had my first visit to Canada last fall and coincidentally I’m scheduled to be there for a few days next week.
Huge shoutout to DVP and the never ending Eglinton line construction. 😅
Excited for you to get that home studio and ditch the Toronto commute. To a great 2023 Daniel!
Thanks for the update. Enjoy the time off and the new kitty! Can't wait to see the full renovations when they're done.
Thank you Daniel, you are always my favourite and go to for creative ideas and techniques, really appreciate your sharing!
You are the man. Your content helped put food on our table and keep the lights on in our business. My team wishes you many more blessing this year and congratulations on the house! 🎉🎉🎉
Glad you took a break! Love your content and you are my inspiration for my video style. Can’t wait to see you refreshed and back at it!
Dude I just wanna say thank ya! All your vids keep me inspired and keeps me gettin thoes dreams done!!! Keep on livin the dream man!!!!!!
Great to see your video on my feed 😍 you have been such an inspiration for soo many video ideas, editing hacks and tricks and what not ? Glad you took that much needed break. Keep creating dope content for yourself and others will tune in accordingly.
I've just found your channel.
I'm so grateful that I have.
I'm feeling burnout in life in general, and really need something creative like videography to get me going again.
So thank you for being here, and for recharging yourself.
Glad you're back. But take your time to gain strength again! Love your content!
Thank you! Will do!
Thanks for being real, as a fellow video production studio owner of a decade, I've been coming through that burn out/why am I doing this/what's the meaning of life (?) spell as well. It's really encouraging to hear another creative note the things about convenience and the past of least resistance to CREATING when you have that moment of clarity. Cheers!!
I feel ya man! Breaks are important and very much so needed to keep the creative flow going. Glad your back! Huge inspiration 💪🏻
I'm glad to be back also! Thanks for the support :)
@@danielschiffer My pleasure man! Love your content
Daniel you've been such an inspiration to me and have helped me along so much in my journey. Appreciate you!!!
Love you bro !! Your videos reached me a lot and have given me a positive outlook in this type of product videos content !! Stay strong
Glad to see you are back! Breaks are very important and I'm glad to hear you knew you needed to step away for a while. Your channel is one of the most inspiring and informational resources for me. I've learned so much from you. Thank you!!
Happy to have you back, for 2023 I am wanting to dive deeper into food and beverage commercials and I am always looking to you for inspo! You have been my favourite creator for a couple years now, excited to see more from you soon!
THANK YOU, Daniel, for everything you gave and shared with all of us!!!
Enjoy and have fun!!!
Sending lots of good energy from Portugal :)
You are so frigging cool. Love the basement reno and new studio and look for forward to seeing the new videos after a well deserved break.
You inspire me and I'm sure a lot of people. I'm also sure you feel a lot of pressure to keep up and maintain your role as an influencer. But you don't have to worry. Take a break as long as you have to. We'll be here when you come back.
Happy you took a break man! I know what that grind is like. You’ve been a huge inspiration as I’ve tried to figure out my own style even if the content itself is wildly different. Your videos have been a part of my journey becoming a full time creator. Looking forward to what’s next for 2023 🎉🏒🇨🇦
Love you brother, teacher and inspiration. Cannot wait for your next explosive projects! Love from Bangladesh! ❤💚
Welcome back man. Love your stuff and 100% feel you on the fleeting inspiration and wanting to create when the feeling strikes. A frickin ice rink!? How cool is that? The shooting space looks awesome. Kitty is supes cute. Here's to 2023! Cheers!
So glad to see you are back! Man there are some days where it is so hard to sit at my desk and be creative with my job. The Ad sets really melt my mind over time.
You’re a great inspiration man glad you’re back! My goals are to really crack down and make content as well as take photography and videography more seriously. And also just to get my life going again to finally live!
Good to have you back, Daniel. Started with your tutorials to learn video editing & now it's my bread & butter!
Same here
I was missing your content, it has helped me a lot! I am very inspired by your works
Great to see you! Miss your videos, always awesome to watch! but we all understand. Can't wait to see the new studio! Happy New Year btw
Awesome update! That's really interesting re the "capture the creative while it's fleeting". I hadn't thought about that before, but it's 1000% true. Good for you for recognizing it, and also taking time out to recharge. Look forward to seeing what the basement studio ends up like. My 2023 goal is to simply make more fun content. All the stuff I've done previously is either personal or for corp, and in both cases, not very shareable. But the desire is to reach the next level for me this year!
Congrats on the break… sometimes it is EXACTLY what we need and I commend you for the wisdom to take one. Also, bringing two of the things I had to travel for (Studio space and Gym) into the home when we moved was one of the best moves I ever made. It has completely changed my productivity in both areas. Looking forward to seeing what you new with your new space and some fresh (and well-rested) perspective!
Thank for being transparent about this and for everyone out there take care of yourself!
Hi Daniel, I'm from Brazil and your videos have inspired me a lot since 2018. Thank you for sharing so much with us. Big hug and success!
Welcome back man! To me you were one of the first and most detailed video channels ive found. Following you ever since! Breaks are healthy :) Specially if you used the time for something like that! Welcome back!
Hey welcome back! Love your content. I would love to see your suggestions and tips/tricks for filming illustrations/artwork/sketchbooks. I’ve been searching for instruction on how to film the work and pieces I do as an artist and what I’ll finding on UA-cam is the same thing over and over, and a lot of it all looks the same.
Excited to hear about the new home studio! Love that slat wall! Wanting one for my studio space!
Hey, glad to see you back! I'm happy you recognized you needed a break (and that you took it). Breaks are incredibly helpful - sometimes you need to step away from your passions to reignite the spark
You're a good dude. Thanks for all your hard work and generosity in sharing. Means a lot. Hope you enjoyed your break!!
Between you and Austin Paul, I've learned so much about this space, thank you and enjoy your new home and studio space!
Your video has always inspired me and a lot of people! Take a break if you need to ;) We are here always waiting for you. Let the videographer in you to takeover AND you're cat is so cute!!
you're the greatest man you're my inspiration for making restaurant videos I know how tough it can get. Take all the time you need and bounce back wne you're ready!!
Much love! Looking forward to your next projects on here!
Glad you're back! I'm looking forward to more content from you - and I also hope to have a home studio like yours. That's a great thing to have - and I hate commute too
Glad you're back! You are an inspiration for a lot of creators out there, can't wait to see how to basement will become!
Hmmm my thoughts/goals for 2023, apart from working on my freelance business. I've uploaded my very first own UA-cam video back in 2021 and it got over 60K views!!!! But because of that success I tend to struggle to just find another topic / have the feeling it has to compete to that said video or even perform/do better than. So my goal is to at least try and get another video out and I hope I can let those fears go.
Wow, it sounds like you've been busy with a lot of exciting changes! Congrats on the new studio space in the basement, it sounds like it will be a great creative outlet for you. It's great to hear that you took the time to recharge and focus on yourself, it's important to prioritize our well-being. I'm sure the commute has been a struggle but having the studio space closer to home will definitely make a difference. Good luck with the final touches and can't wait to see what kind of content you'll be creating in the future! Wishing you a great year ahead and all the best with your plans, goals, and ideas for 2023.
Glad to hear! Thanks for the behind the scenes. I finally got some clarity for my channel and going to really start talking about humanitarian filmmaking. Have so many ideas. Glad to see you back on and hope you got some good rest.
I recently discovered your channel and I am enjoying watching your videos and I must say they are inspiring. Take your break bro as I enjoy your videos
Well deserved break man. You've inspired me souch for the avenue I'd like to take with my work this year and forwards. I really love your content and work work. Glad you had a well deserved mate but equally as happy that your gonna be bringing some more of you back ✌🏻
You inspire me man there’s nothing wrong with taking a break even if you love what you do that’s why people take vacation although we love our craft we as humans need breaks from time to time so we don’t get burned out . Thank you for all you do not only showing us your good editing skills but also teaching how to do it as well .😊
Welcome back and congrats on the new space!! Convenience in creating is definitely a plus.
Happy new year Daniel 🎉
Welcome back we missed you and product filmmaking
You know what I realized after I wrote my first comment. I realized that are soooo many people who are inspired by you Daniel.. It’s incredible how you made so many people get to buy a camera and do what you do. To follow your steps, and care about you. Im sure now that I was not the only one who sended you messages and go every week to your youtub, instagram account, to look if you posted something. If everything was oke.. Wauw!! Thats amazing man. God Bless you!!
Take all of the time you need! Thank you for the amazing content! Also, I live in the greater Seattle area and the commute to Seattle is brutal so I totally get it, lol.
Was binge watching all your videos yesterday and wondering why no new content. Now got the answer. Looking forward to all your shows. Thank you for your contribution to creativity! They all really helped me grow as a videographer.
always appreciate the details in all your videos. ily
Congrats on the new place and studio setup! Can completely relate to the traffic of Toronto, it just sucks the life out of you. We bought a place in Hamilton in 2020 and it's been a complete game changer for our mental health and productivity.
That's great man. Happy that the fruits of your labor & inspiration have been restored & improved. Keep at it. Continued success
Hey buddy we miss you, but the most important thing is the your good and also you’re been super smart taking this break. Hope this new season it more amazing in your live and hope I gets you to another level. Thank you for letting us be part of your live in every video the you do. Have a bless day!
Here for you man! Regrouping and getting stoked again is all part of the process/journey! 🙌 Jeremy and I know all to well about maintaining a backyard rink especially with the weather this year 👀
Welcome back! Excited to see new content. My 2023 plans are to finally pursue my filmmaking career. I've been working silently for the past year putting various projects together and will be finally putting content out and building up a presence this year. It's scary but I can't wait!
Glad you got your rest! Always pumped to see what you’ve got coming next! 🙌
Great to see you back! Your tips, creative choice and contents and skills are useful inspiring and frankly awesome altogether!
Awesome Daniel! Glad to hear you are back! That basement looks amazing for your studio! Can't wait for your future content!
Hi Daniel. I want to say thank you for making these video. I've always wanted to start my own business. And I ended up spending a lot money on courses and coaches. In the end they didn't give me any form of value and just took my money. I discovered your videos and decided to buy a camera. The fact that you have created this many videos, and made them available for everyone is just amazing. I enjoy making product videos, and I even bought Austen Paul's product video course (One of the few courses that actually is giving me value). My goal for 2023 is create a sustainable business using my camera. Good luck with your project, I'm cheering you on from the sidelines.
I'm actually starting out my videomaking company this year, and I cannot deny that most of the enthusiasm and knowledge I have comes straight from your videos. I wanna thank you for all you've done for this (your) community. We cannot wait to have you back Daniel!
Good to hear from you man! I'm glad you knew when to stop, sit back, and look at your current health situation! The new creative space looks super exciting and I can't wait to see what in brings to your UA-cam viewers!
great to hear from you! coming to terms with realizing what once was your dream that you turned into a reality no longer feels like something you want in your life might’ve felt weird, but above all i’d like to share that seeing working in the city as something you no longer want in your day to day life and jumping on changing that fast is quite admirable. i gotta work on that. as we progress through this year, i’ll always be excited to see what you have to share with us. For me, I don’t have any plans currently. I think my main goal is to stick to my academics, and put a lot of extra effort into the classes I’ll be taking (and retaking.) But I won’t ever shun my creative side, especially now as I’ve recently really enjoyed photoshop and illustrator. No plans, but I do have the goal of getting into generative art this year. I’ve looked into it a little bit, and have followed some great artists. I think this year I’ll want to continue my dive into different art mediums, like I have from photography to (now) graphic design. I’ve thought recently of creating an app, and editing all of my old videos has always been in the back of my head. Creating content is something I’m really passionate about, but when it gets to the editing I just shut down completely. That’s all from me. Excited for you! And for this year!
YOOOO!!! CONGRATS ON THE NEW HOUSE NEW CAT AND NEW WORKSPACE!! YOU INSPIRED SO MANY!! was wondering why I wasn't as creative these past few months/last year xD (my excuses). WELCOME BACK MAN!
Love the Lifeproof flooring. My entire house including my studio and garage is now Lifeproof flooring :) Glad you are back!
Hey I really enjoy,supporting othe content creators and showing them support through the journey and I love making youtube content as while been very passionate about since I was 18 years old thank,you
Daniel you inspired me to start my youtube chanel and create product videos. Honestly your videos taught me more techniques than any film school I attended for product videos. I recomend your channel to any filmmaker I come in contact with. Thank You
I know it sounds weird because I don't know you in person and I don't use this words very often but yeah I've been missing you Dan and your wonderful contents. Welcome back and whenever you need another break, don't hesitate to take it. We all know that this whole youtube thing is not "normal life". Looking forward to your next videos and thanks for all that you've taught us so far❤❤❤
Hey Daniel! You've inspired me a great deal and I wish you the best of luck.
So happy you are back.
I am a young video/photo maker from Iran and your content is a huge inspiration for me.
My country is going through a revolution rn and the internet quality is to the lowest point but so eager to watch your videos again.
I really appreciate that! Keep up the hard work and keep creating!
Been working downtown for a month now, commuting from Stoney Creek so I know the feeling haha. Keep up the good stuff Dan!
I just finished a large video project. Your channel definitely served me with some inspiration and solutions to a few problems. It has prompted me to step up my UA-cam channel too. It's going to be a great year!
Glad your back and good! Stoked for the new creative videos🙏
Man it’s funny I’ve gone down to one subscription client to focus on creating content for UA-cam. After years of the client grind and hustle I got burnt out and needed a break. I mean I still have to work but not as much 2020-22 was really good to me so taking a step back and refocusing on my goals and intentions has been awesome for my mental health. I’ve been wondering where you’ve been but man I totally get it. You’ll come back if and when you’re ready. Enjoy your time and the space looks amazing!🎥❤️
Great to have you back mate, thank you for ALWAYS making great and inspiring content.
happy to see you back! hope you enjoyed your time off!
Funny to see because i just purchased a house and have a big basement with a height of a 2meters and want to create a studio in here as well.
Will you bring content about your basement?
Welcome back! Lots of inspiration from you in filming for my own channel.
Welcome back. Living north of Toronto and commuting across the city I feel your pain.
Yah, I totally get the need for convince when struck with a creative moment. I hate especially when it might happen at school and I can’t take any action until I get home and by then it’s not always the same.
My goal is to really put in the hours into the craft of photography+video. I’m focusing on creating habits that help me achieve my goals. Can’t wait for all the new content this year!
I am new to video editing and I find your videos really helpful. I am glad you are going to comeback in creating content.
Please do more alot with mobile videography.
You are an amazing creator, man. Hope you feel better. I will watch everything and learn from you when I get my camera
It's incredibly important to not just cater to your audience but also take care of yourself, looking forward to the new content your revitalize self will put out this year Daniel, cheers!
Yes!!! Looking forward to more of whatever it is you're putting out haha! This year I'm hoping to get a show that I'm filming/producing picked up by a network!!
Keep inspiring bro! Cheers
you‘re even a good role model in living what feels right for you, listening to your inner voice and talk openly about it. all the best!
Welcome back Daniel, I am glad you decided to take a break, however I was missing your videos which have been such an inspiration for me and for a lot of people.
I can relate to making content for long and needing a break 🥲 been offline for 2-3 months and came back with more passion! Kudos to you to finally taking that well deserved break too
Awesome Update Daniel! Super cool having the rink out back too
I feel this. For the last half of 2022 I couldn't even get myself to sit in front of my computer. It was bad. Glad to see you back.
Hey Daniel, It’s nice to see you again. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Thanks you are back Bro, your contents are awesome. Keep doing what's best for you.
I appreciate that!
Super glad you're back and happy to hear you're good. You inspire a lot of people, myself included and there are tons of us who want to see more of your content on UA-cam.
I have no idea who this guy is or how his video got on my homepage, or why I watched him explain why he stopped making content that I never even watched. But, it was clear to me that he knows what he's doing and I'm excited to learn more.
