    August, I always enjoy watching your videos because you come up with some amazing camera angles (multiple cameras, drone, ext) and it makes it like watching a TV show. I say that because they are highly entertaining to watch and like any good show you wait with great anticipation for the next episode. I really appreciate you videos because the amount of time you must put into editing them does not go unnoticed in your final product. If I had to pay to subscribe to your channel I would in a heartbeat that's how entertaining your videos are to watch. If you like tree work this is the #1 show in my mind. Thanks for all the hard work making it.

    I never realized people got so upset over Hollywood style editing vs raw footage. If I've ever given you that impression ever man please give me a little grace, I truly appreciate both styles. I'm not a Monkey Beaver but I do a lot of volunteer tree work from the ground so I can appreciate some aspects of the challenges you face. Down to brass tax though I'm just a fan and nothing better than that. My favorite video is still the lightning strike video but I also like your video talking about not cutting roots because of how it can lead to an unstable tree. I like them both and the fact that you don't light up the audio with f bombs every other minute which means I can watch them around the little ones. My 2 year old girl thought that was me climbing the tree in the lightning strike video until I explained it to her and told her that you guys are Monkey Beavers to which she said in an excited 2 year old "Look Dad Monkey Beaver! Are you Monkey Beaver?" lol. All I could do was laugh and say "No honey Dad is just a ground Beaver, I don't climb because I'm not made for this lol.". She still said in a sweet voice "oh ok, you still beaver" and we watched more videos together. Thanks for making content we can both enjoy in little bits and pieces of time as life allows.

    Your videos are just right. They are instructional enough that my crew (my family) and I learn from them, but entertaining enough to keep the "cool" in tree work. I really enjoy when you post a new video, and they form a sense of brotherhood in this industry. When I watch your videos, they make me want to get out there and take on another challenging tree puzzle! I'm retirering as a Deputy Sheriff in three months and going to do this full time.

    August as far as I'm concerned your videos hit all the right angles and are second to none of the others that I've watched. That was some challenging tree there and a great job...well done period...Hollywood style or not:) Personally, having done this work, I enjoy the editing you've done to make it entertaining...stay safe!

  • @westerntreecare4896
    @westerntreecare4896 8 років тому +2

    Who cares what style they are, opinions are like butt holes, everyone has one. The point is the time and effort taken to edit these videos showcasing the wide range of work covered on a daily basis in what is a relentless job sometimes both physically and mentally. Ok yes it's great with pumping music, but equally it's nice to see and hear it raw giving the non tree guys a sense of perspective and understanding. Great work as always August.

  • @krambraithw8
    @krambraithw8 8 років тому +2

    Your videos are a great balance between the technical aspects involved and entertainment value, capturing a broad audience. Educational enough if you want to learn a few things, but not being a how too video. Demonstrating how difficult it can be and gives awareness to the industry. Shows what a customer is paying for and some of what's involved for those so inclined. Thanks for taking the time for all of it.

    Been doing this professional-like since at least 1995, and I still love to watch your video videos. To me, you have a very well-balanced equation: x%entertainment editing + y%detailed points we can glean information from × an overarching sense of comraderie = Great August videos

    You make videos interesting and fun that tell a small story with theory put in the mix. There are many how to videos that aren't boring they are just not as engaging August. Considering your running a business have a family and take the time where possible to answer comments I/we are really grateful. Please keep em coming mate. I have found better rigging techniques, climbing techniques and realised that I am 'made for this' (got the t shirt). Tree Stuff as well! Fantastic work and all the best from Oxfordshire, England :-)

    First time commenting on your vids August. First thing first I'm a tree guy and yes your right it is a SICKNESS. I work trees all day then come home plant and grow them and when its dark I youtube them. Just chiming in on what you where talking about before. As a youtuberer I fined my self skipping through a lot of videos looking for the action parts I have found my self doing that a lot on the longer videos. So any thing longer then 10 minuets. This is not relivent to your videos. I have so FAR found your videos to have the type of content that I enjoy the talking is entertaining and the music is grate. I personally enjoy tree vids with music as it works good with beer. Thums up mate.

  • @scatoutdebutter
    @scatoutdebutter 7 років тому

    Very much appreciate you breaking down the details as much as possible!
    I may never do anything as complicated as this, but much of the techniques and thought processes are to some degree transferable to smaller, less complicated jobs.
    ALSO ... showing same thing from different angles/perspectives, annotations, graphics, etc.... in short, all the *teaching* aids you use help in the understanding and retention.
    ALSO... regarding "a wider audience" ... as one who has been known to read technical manuals cover to cover (at least start reading anyway).... the cliche is real about "death by powerpoint" ... in other words even for specifically targeted audiences (tree guys/people) dry details can become "boring" or tend to make one drift mentally... using your creativity, editing, production, etc. is *not* "cheapening" the end product... it just helps direct the info in your videos to all the viewers mental receptors, etc.so they will remember, appreciate, learn, etc. more than if you had made it more mundane or pedantic (although nothing intrinsically wrong with mundane or pedantic), right?

    Just found this video (part 3) had seen the other two, but kept getting pulled away from the computer before part 3. Really great vid and it was great to hear your explanations of the pro's and con's of Hollywood vs Technivid? I am in the watching to learn crowd, that said even in your Hollywood vids I am usually able to glean more information on safe and innovative techniques than I do on many others "Technivid" postings.Thanks and keep up the great work.

    Exceptional explanation to a fan audience by the name of Corey. I have a few one minute to three-minute videos of what I do at work. No editing. Not for show but for family I'm definitely just tree guy like yourself. Even though I'm just a fan I really appreciate your explanation to some of the guys to watch and comment on your videos. Assuming that there is a younger audience who did not know what it was like not to have a cell phone or even know what a thing like a pager ever looked like because they do not exist anymore. There were no computers growing up. And nowadays a lot of tree guys are not taught properly like myself it took me a long time to become who I am. Wishing I had a better teacher whenever I get a chance I explain things to guys so they understand how to be a really good tree guy.

    Kid vs Adult target market: Yep, the two best examples are Disney cartoons and children's mini-sermons during "big church;" they seem to target kids, but they capture both markets. Personally, I love your "voice overs." Also, I like to try to freeze closeups of that day's ascender and rigging setups. Most importantly, you include your family!

    Great set of videos I've been in the game for a lot less then you but seeing the way you judge your cuts and fall makes me fell a lot more faith in myself. So thank you for putting in that effort late at night because yes your right we do all want some detail now and then but most of all we just want to see some cool Arb work. An also after a days work I now I just want to sleep so fair play to you for the effort!

    We can't "see" "why" the redirect lends strength, because it is an abstract geometric concept. It's invisible. All we can see is the apparatus/configuration manifesting itself - in this case, angled lines. This is seeing "how" it works.

    You never did mean to make how to videos :)
    I enjoy your videos for the entertainment mostly :)
    I did many different types of work that can put one in harms way.
    {LEO, Marine Captain, Auto Mechanic, Welder, Tree faller, light Arborist, Handy man, }
    Details are important if some one wants to do certain work ; especially if done wrong can kill or serious bodily injury. (But your not making how to's)
    Many times I seen people looking at me while working - like they are trying to learn something {I respect people trying to learn something new} ; I don't mind at all but depending on what I am doing I'll tell them if they have any questions ask me because there might be dangerous I'm looking for they have no clue about; they might be looking but don't know the science or forces being applied. It's all so easy to miss a thing or two when watching some one that will lead to a very bad situation.
    Worst is when kids are looking you don't want them to get crazy ideas that will get them hurt ; and you don't want to be the mean person to send them away either .
    For entertainment aspect you hit the mark right on the head!
    just my ramblings

    I'm mostly watching these because I'm trying to learn stuff (I'm not a tree guy) because I volunteer in the State Emergency Service (Australia) and we have to cut a lot of fallen, hung up trees, trees in other trees, trees in powerlines and on houses. The Hollywood style might be more "entertaining" but teaches me pretty much nothing. Thanks for the vids.
