    1. Wrong Camera Settings 2:12
    2. Same focal length for every clip 3:02
    3. Not enough Variety 5:42
    4. Artist lip synching 7:23
    5. Color grading 9:02
    Saving this for later for when I get to my camera

    See you say "it's better to overshoot than undershoot" and I 100% agree with you. But then another channel I saw on here (big UA-camr not some small timer) says not to overshoot get what you need and that's it.
    So it's like..

    The variety one was pretty key for me, the moment I switched to writing a shot list the day before. It changed my videos for the better. Ill break that 24 fps rule sometimes, depends on the vibe I'm going for.

      So my question is the small the mm of the lense the closer you’d be to the target? Besides having the higher mm lense to shoot close up from a distance?

  • @SmithBlack-One-shot-studio
    @SmithBlack-One-shot-studio 11 місяців тому

    I don’t agree that a video shot at one focal length (3:00) looks monotonous. You just need to vary the distance, angle and setting. I shot one of my latest works entirely on one 24mm anamorphic lens in two settings and it looks great. Yes, I usually shoot with several different focal lengths and even with several cameras at once, but this does not mean that you cannot shoot a good video with a single lens.
