LATE DROP! What's one thing you wish you knew before you started shooting?
i hope one day I will be like You ......keep updating us
I wish I learned how to say “no” earlier to some projects, would’ve been able to catch up on sleep instead of “fixing it in post!”
Everything! If only I knew these tips in earlier like in 2014 when I start learning how to shoot videos. Well, I just learn from my mistakes. Great video YCImaging! I'm a big fan of your work!
To shoot in a flat picture profile. I used to shoot on the standard picture profile on the Canon M50. Learning about dynamic range/flat picture profile and applying it really gave me much more room to color grade in post.
William Hall BRO! Me too man. I use to wait on set allll day for unprofessional artists
Yes female viewer here. Thank you lol
Felisha S I appreciate you a ton, that was for you.
seconded :)
forreal tho!
Lol same!!! Lady check in 😂
We're out here too! 😄
.02% dang more females need to join the squad
Brittani Jackson Really tho!
Shoutout to my fellow 0.02% 😂💜👍 We here lolol
Kitana Blade Lmao I appreciate y’all.
😂 Hey back!!
Great video! One of 100 things I wish I knew back: Turn off autofocus, turn manual and do not touch it. Just try to keep focus moving after the subject. This is huge. Makes your video sooooo cinematic. You can leave someone out of focus if you want then come back and so on.
When i started AF wasn't even a thing lmao. I would shoot at f/1.8 and have everything outta focus smh.
I was forced into learning Manual Focus. Lol Haven't gone back since. I couldn't figure out how to change something in Auto, that i could in Manual---So manual its been and I'm glad, because it made me learn my camera more
@@YCImaging
Lol when u don't know you don't know but hey you know now and so I thank you for your struggles and the sharing of them so that we won't have to unless we choose to.
@@YCImaging you suck
I used to agree with this but autofocus has gotten so good that in a lot of cases I think it looks great.
Proper planning. You save a lot of time when you do your research on the site you'll be shooting at, put together some story boards, determine what look you want to go for, and brain storm with the client to determine their expectations. As you also said, people generally see something you've done before and they want something similar to that which helps.
''You can NOT do everything yourself and until you notice this, you never gonna get to that next level.'' Thanks for inspiring YCImaging, your video's are really helpful. Best of luck and keep rocking man!
Clients truly do not care, bought a lot of gears I ended up not using. The business management of production is as important as the skill set. We can’t afford to go broke doing what we love.
So deep, love this comment
I've done a couple of run and gun shoots for companies lately and i can not agree more that planning is making the result so much better!
I'd say that the one thing i wish i 'd known is that i'd practice even more editing than i did. Editing for me is where 80% of the magic goes down.
Thanks for the video man, great tips!
I agree about the team effort. I do some music live recordings by myself, but when it comes to a proper music video I gotta have my team with me. I need more creative minds on set to make it the best it can be. Thank you for the tips!
So when a team is needed for better quality videos, how do I offer my service for someone without any shooting clips experience? even for a underground artist wouldnt pay 200$
I wish I didnt have your glidecam ran over at that 1 shoot :(
Creative Ryan Video about THIS coming soon!
Lmao damn Ryan, do you hate this man?
@@miyurinorris158 HAHAHAH
Savage 😂😂🙈
Snapped Media RYAN LOWKEY HAS IT OUT FOR YC lmao
Love the practical advice you provided including your recommendation to have a game plan in place before shooting. Also appreciate your insight and experience with lighting! I usually record performers live, recording a music video definitely requires me to change gears. Thank you!
I have been watching your videos for an year now and i have to say the quality of each and every video just keeps on going off the roof .....Congrats on the progress ..True inspiration Fr
Great tips. Thanks for keeping it a hundred. It's great learning tidbits from your hustle
Good shit bruh been rocking for a min videos always helpful
So far, it's been a great adventure that has helped me realise how creative I can really be. Honestly, I wouldn't change anything! From my humble start on the Nikon D3300 to my current full frame Canon, it has been a pleasure learning how to film and take pics 🥰
Bro the way you talk literally radiates your charisma... i love your personality man... keep it up...
Emgie from Botswana
I’m in the .02 percent. Didn’t even realize not many women probably watch you but I just love good info on filmmaking. Makes me feel immersed in the craft. Keep the how to videos coming!
Actually, I just started on video making, my first music video got uploaded on monday.
While editing I realized everything that I got wrong when shooting and definitely already know what I gotta do better.
You inspire and help me A LOT keep up with the videos man!!!
Great tips!! Thanks for sharing!!
It's really tough to find a direct info video on UA-cam. You crushed it! All the questions I had you answered. Thank you!
Love your motivation you a real live goat my G
Love watching your videos because it keeps me working on the right path!
Thank you for the tips!!! Very helpful!
Don’t wish you knew it before bro. That’s the dope part about what you do! You learn little things here and there to capitalize on your actual skill. Keep killin it!
Hey! I struggled so hard with focal length too, especially since I also come from a photography background where it is easier to control aperture/shutter speed/lighting still shots. Starting the move into videography, I wish I knew how different it actually is compared to photography.. moving subjects, lighting, composition etc.
This video has helped me a lot and I no longer feel like a goose.
Thank you for existing!
New to film-making here. This video was super helpful. Looking forward to seeing what else you got!
BROOOO!! U just give me so much inspiration while I was watching this video 💜💜💜
Dope, definitely on it‼ thanks bro🎥💯👨🏻💻
Thanks for sharing this video as always. Look forward to your next one.
Johnny Ray Thanks Johnny!
Good stuff my man. I subscribed for the shear fact that you keep it real on using what you have and making it look good from your beginner days to now. I too have the same attitude when it comes to doing things outside the norm and the box. A solid camera that shoots good video and a solid lens can go a long way to producing some quality work. Thanks for the tips, much appreciated!
Duuude respeeect on your advice. Thank you!!
Dope video, Keep grinding 👏🏾👌🏾💪🏾
Thank you for acknowledging us femmes...I just discovered your channel today, and it has been so helpful out of all the others I have seen. Thank you!! Keep up the great work💪🏽
Your advices are precious ! Thank you for doing what you do!
LB PRODUCTIONS Appreciate you checking it out.
Just starting out here. Thank you for your videos. You are so real, and it gave me courage to try to do this. Good info.
Super interesting ! Thanks for sharing
Totally agree, I think one of the biggest things I wish I knew is. def not having to do everything on my own. Know your weaknesses and allow others to fill in that gap while you strive with your strengths. Great video YC.
Right! It's a team effort man
great video very informative and straight to the point.
Love your work, suscribed!
Real Info! Thank you!!!
Thank you for the information bro 🤞🏾
I’m always inspired when I’m here thanks again ❤
What’s up bro? Definitely appreciate the work you’ve been putting in and paying forward. My one thing I wish I knew when I first started shooting actually not devaluing my own work by posting prices. It was crazy cause when I was really feeling the frustration from it I came across your video and it eased my frustration forreal.
Hey, I just watched your video and it was dope! Thanks for sharing!
Great points, I am a musician and people always get caught up on plugins or samples when really all that matters is that it hits with the people.
Good bro,love your videos,they inspire me
Thanks for the acknowledgment. 😊
glad you talked about your overall vibe first thing i say to myself as watching the video was "this guys constantly smiling and has great energy".. keep at it stay golden.
THANK YOU for preaching to me about the camera I've got - Ive been dreaming of upgrading to a new camera and good lens, but I don't have the funds to do so and I'm just starting with film. I needed to be reminded to just start with what I've got and as I continue down this road I will upgrade when I can!
I just want you to know that you are really my number one inspiration. Carry on!
Always on point YC!💯
appreciate your honesty bro!!!!!
This was incredibly exciting helpful. I feel so much better about moving into this industry now.
Been watching you for yrs, love your work bra.
Great content always deserves great subs
Thanks for this video. I am exploring making videos as a hobby/ extra skill.
Bro I appreciate you’re knowledge you’ve helped me out a lot 💯 keep grinding bro
To shoot in a flat picture profile. I used to shoot on the standard picture profile on the Canon M50. Learning about dynamic range/flat picture profile and applying it really gave me much more room to color grade in post.
Shot By Chuka For sure!
Great channel bro 💯👊🏾👊🏾
Tight! I'm feeling it
Great info man thanks - got a few laughs too!
On the cusp of doing one. Great video. Well spoken - Humorous! and informative. :) Thanks Man!
I'm right at the beginning, so thanks for the tips!
Nice video bro, thanks for information
Nice video, good ideas! Have my first RAP video job coming in May. Keep it up!
I’m so proud of your channel growth my dude! I’ve been a subscriber since you were at about 65k! Keep doing your thing!
José The Rover José, I appreciate the support!
Great content, your one of the few that brings real world tips and suggestions to help with our on the field work
Jonathan Gayosso thanks man, I appreciate the support
This video helped a lot and wasn’t boring definitely love the vibe of the channel
I wish I understood cinematic camera movements. And that it's about the lenses more than the camera.
Deedz Productionz Lenses are important.
Yc imaging got me started shooting videos a few years back I'm glad you decided to do tutorials now I get that bag
I'm just starting out myself. This video really helped. Thank you!
"Let's melt all the make-up off" LOL!!! Classic bro. The nugget about it being a team effort is crucial. But real talk the one thing I wish I knew was how much stress this career will put on your back and feet!!!
Marcus Robinson BRO! Chiropractor is definitely beneficial for anyone who sits at the desk.
Dope video as always YC! Man the thing I wish I knew was that your body of work is more valuable than the cost of your equipment. I got caught up in buying gear but wasn’t shooting enough. So when I got all the gear I wanted, I couldn’t charge what I felt the quality was worth because I didn’t have the portfolio to back up the price.
Thanks for this video coz I really needed it's
you're the man, big inspo, keep it up, much love.
Thanks a lot for the advice. Appreciate ya! 🙏🌬🔥🔮
BRO. Your hair has been on POINT lately! haha I think the main thing for me starting out (and I still struggle with this) is trying to do everything myself and wanting it to be 100% something I created. As I started working with friends and other creators, it's amazing what two brains can come up with versus one. So collaborating with others would be something I would recommend to people starting out, because it'll only make you and the other people involved better at your craft.
Casey Hardman Appreciate it! Team is always better lol
What's up big bro, great videos man. One thing I would want to know more in depth is understanding color correction and lenses. And especially lenses because there are so many to choose from.
Thanks 4 The Keys Yc 🤯💪🏾💯
U are so chill brow
Bro, thank you! I'm new to the the game and I'm still learning tons, I saw one of your videos with Indy Mogul and I appreciated your insight on making a music video on "No Budget." Like a jeweler, I try take any jewels dropped. Thanks!
Bro, your videos are getting to another level! Keep it up ;)
Great stuff, I subscribed!
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🔥 - Your one man band advice ... Truth. Especially at weddings.
Wish I would have know about using 24fps for majority of shooting with double shutter speed and 60 fps for slow motion.
Great video and great tips. One thing is though I have had multiple artists ask what camera I shoot with and even showing my camera rig on a call has helped me increase budgets by up to double. Just having a rigged up camera with a matte box (the big cheque) helps clients take you serious. It's harder to communicate and sell good creative but easier to show a fancy looking rig and they get that you're more professional than a run and gun type. It's a balance though.
This Video has help me TREMENDOUSLY!!!
Thank you for the help bro
You are really good at it
and you deserve million before 2k20.
Good luck.👍
Your videos are not only informative but very inspiring... continue keeping me motivated👍👍
I wish I knew more about exposure when I first started off. Most of the videos I shot early on were mostly at night and I would crank up the ISO to 6400 all the time. There have been times where I would shoot during the day and would still have the ISO up to around 2500 for no good reason. You have to start somewhere, I guess.
Great Content!!
Excellent excellent video!
Thank you, man. Words said.
I wish I didn't feel like I needed all the best gear to go out and start producing films.
Great Content bro... I have been watching you for years... I love seeing your subscriber count rise... Keep up the great work!
Craig Strachan Creative Appreciate you!
