    This is why I watch you. I could have watched another hour of this easily. Its easy to believe that someone like you is just a professional all the time and is doesn't have to go through trial and error. Another thing that helped me too is the fact that you didn't really enjoy the shot of you sitting on the hood of your car and that was honestly one of my favorites, just goes to show how everyone likes something different and that's the beauty of cinematography.

    I love the long videos and the process. Short form content makes people think everything is sooooo quick and its not. So when clients come and expect things to be done in a day or their budget dont make their request, this is why!!! Favorite shot was the garage because of the process.

    Yo! "Just roll with it," like you said - I'm going through my filmmaking journey. I am new to this and I really appreciate that you showed moments when you were failing, but figured it out. And that making a short video takes real time and preparation. To me, that’s new, and to capture that, a long video like this it was completely necessary, it just gives a better sense of time. So, yeah thanks for sharing!

    Love your work and this longform video is refreshing and so good. As a writer - its true in my field of speciality - when you do or read a good long form article it blows the 'attention deficit' short pieces out of the water. Kudos to you - just discovered you with this vid - hope you'll feel pumped to do similar length vids in the future. Your articulate, chilled and well thought out approach not only the dynamic filming but also narration and audio is a winner - and those shots - Michael Mann would be jealous - much love from the UK and wishing you a lot of continued success in the future 🙏

    @mattmahoney6229 7 місяців тому

    Aye man. Love your content. Been a cinematographer my whole career, love your teaching style. I wanted to mention something a grip taught me when I was coming up years ago: At 19:35 I can see your c stand arm is underslung, meaning on the left hand side of the stand and on the underside the knuckle (grip head). The weight of your light can break the lock, or grip, of your knuckle which can send your gear crashing to the ground on into someone. The safest way to mount these lights is stand behind your light stand, put he knuckle on the right hand side, and make sure the arm goes through the top side of the knuckle. This was, as weight is applied to the arm with lights or modifiers, it actually tightens the knuckle. Hope this helps, keep it up man. Love your channel.
