This series has been incredible. As professionals we take for granted the fundamentals, but there really isn't anything better. Keep it up Ryan and team!
Over the last year I got into video as a hobby. This week I’ll be joining a small team to shoot a commercial. First time doing some legit paid work. This video makes me feel 1% more prepared. Thank you 🙏
Just woke up and this is the first video I've watched this day. Not complaining since I was a filmmaking enthusiast and been a fan of Film Riot and Sir Ryan Connolly for a mighty long time
Thanks Ryan for everything you've made we've been watching you and (Others your team) for a while and we know you had so much improvement and love you from India, Mizoram.
I love how you explain everything to us to the point where we don't need to ask a question! As a very Beginner like myself, I will say thank you for this amazing informative video
Your content and tutorials are so helpful, I have been binging your bts and tutorials the past few days! Love your short films as well and overall creativity of filmmaking!!
I really appreciate your content. Even though I aspire to become an actor, knowing all the other production elements is quite significant. Thanks for uploading such good videos.
Man I have been watching yall's videos since y'all first started and y'all just keep better and better! Love the help y'all give and just the over all production quality and entertainment y'all provide is just amazing! Love it guys! Keep on keeping on!
This video really covers a lot of the basics in short time. Of course you can go much deeper into the subtleties of every shot size in different scenarios, but that would have taken a whole episode for every one of them.
learning a lot from this video..very much satisfying to know how the work is done and what we see in the movies. hope that it will improve my filmmaking so much. thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm making a short film for school and this is beyond helpful, thank you for the amount of effort that you have put into this and many other videos on your channel.
Almost everything you need to know about directing is in a single video lmao. He has two more videos like this about coverage and cinematography. Know those three videos and there you have it, 4 years filmmaking degree for free. I really like this type of content where you don't interrupt the flow with unnecessary jokes.
Hey Ryan, can you show a simple tutorial on how to remove a camera/cameraman when shooting a mirror, like in bathroom, elevator, big mirror wall etc. Thanks.
I think the Medium Wide Shot "MWS" in this video is actually a Medium Full Shot "MFS", isn't it? In my understanding a medium wide would be similar to an actual full shot... (with the whole body visible and not a lot of the actual space). Am I wrong here?
Hey Ryry, Longtime viewer, first time caller.. (ok, I've commented before) Would you be able to do a version of this vid where you can give us a breakdown of the equipment used, ie lense & aperture? Or maybe this can turn into a thread with timestamps and setup explanation or guess? Kinda like 6:16 50mm T2.8 bird's eye view (I'm guessing because I'm learning with practice)
I love filmmaking 😩
I like how you explained it like formulating a sentence!
Yes, that was pure poetry. I actually had to write it down.

Thanks for making this video. I was just looking for a filmmaking video and yours pop up.
Film Ript has taught me so much over the years! Thanks!!
Best video i've seen on the subject of shots. Everything you need to know in 11 minutes.
Thanks Ryan for everything you've made we've been watching you and (Others your team) for a while and we know you had so much improvement and love you from India, Mizoram.

I like the 2.66:1 2x anamorphic on a 4:3 sensor personally. A great lesson too, Thanks guys!
Even though these are basics, it's still so useful to watch. Love the linguistic analogy, so helpful! Great graphics btw
I watched many of your videos. But this one is beyond amazing. The best one I've ever seen! Thank you!
Wow, I started watching years ago and it’s amazing how far you’ve come. The quality is amazing. Glad you are still doing it.
This will forever be THE video to share when it comes to shots! Thanks for including the sentence metaphor and extra thoughts 👍👍
Your content and tutorials are so helpful, I have been binging your bts and tutorials the past few days! Love your short films as well and overall creativity of filmmaking!!

Literally writing a shot list and this video appeared. Film Riot knows! Great episode.
This video really covers a lot of the basics in short time. Of course you can go much deeper into the subtleties of every shot size in different scenarios, but that would have taken a whole episode for every one of them.
I'm not a beginner anymore (I think...?), but damn, videos like these are always such a blessing. This whole channel is such a blessing!

This was needed 🙏 Thank you guys
Great video...that BMD footage looks great. BMD---great skin tones and shadow fall off.
This is a great video! Easy to understand and beneficial for us with no budget as well as those with a few bucks. Thanks!
So glad you dug it!
This is brilliant! May have to come back for a refresh from time to time.
Can you guys make a video about blocking, staging and framing in depth .
This episode is something amazing! Thank you FILM RIOT!!!
a good refresher indeed :3
Excellent break down! Thank you Film Riot.
As always simply BRILLIANT!!!!!!

Nice! Thank you Ryan and team! I’ve learnt so much from you over the years!
Aspect ration video, YES, PLEASE!
Very nice dose of information in a small package! Thanks!
So, i know this info already but STILL feel like i learned something new. Which... i did. LOVE U GUYS!!
awesome breakdown on camera shots!
I am really inspired and motivated by your videos. i fight hard to make u proud some day. attending as many film contests as i learn
This is fantastic for Cinematography 101!
Gold mine, right here.
Your videos are always very inspiring. Everytime i see a video i get motivated to shoot my short film.. It's been almost 2 years. 😑Money matters.
Lets of useful info presented in an easy to digest format. Thank you!
these are basic things to know, 101 indeed. Its good to remember those things and refresh memory
This channel is better than film school
For someone that's just getting their first camera and starting out learning on their own what is the best shot and angle to start trying on day 1?
This is great for beginners! But useful for everyone really!
Sometimes I learn sooooo much from the basics
Thank you 🙏🏼
thank you.... good video , i like it
This is really great. How do I go about putting these all together in order to tell my story?
In french, we actually call the cowboy shot the « plan américain » (American shot) still because of the westerns framing the guns.
Great primer. Thanks, Guys!
Great episode as always.
This was so helpful thanks for the examples

Can someone list all the movies in this video? It seems like a great list of films to watch.
We just added them to the notes of this episode for you. They are in order of first appearance in the episode.
@@filmriot Thank you so much! I look forward to watching them! The best film school is films themselves!
Thank you Sir
Hey Ryan, can you show a simple tutorial on how to remove a camera/cameraman when shooting a mirror, like in bathroom, elevator, big mirror wall etc. Thanks.
Hi I wanna know the title of the film in 7:09. Please
Thanks.
Love it thank you
Can you make a video on the Filmora 10 editor??
Wow this is ♥️
I think the Medium Wide Shot "MWS" in this video is actually a Medium Full Shot "MFS", isn't it? In my understanding a medium wide would be similar to an actual full shot... (with the whole body visible and not a lot of the actual space). Am I wrong here?
Love it!
Hey, I am trying to buy the infinity pack but 3 different cards get declined. Help
Great video! Please bring back psycho Ryan from ten years ago :D like during bloodtober!
its the little things that matter
I can't seem to find the Aspect Ratio episode...
You should also cover rule of thirds and golden ratio in future episodes.
We may tackle that in a future episode. Great idea. Thanks!
Hey Ryry, Longtime viewer, first time caller.. (ok, I've commented before)
Would you be able to do a version of this vid where you can give us a breakdown of the equipment used, ie lense & aperture?
Or maybe this can turn into a thread with timestamps and setup explanation or guess?
Kinda like 6:16 50mm T2.8 bird's eye view (I'm guessing because I'm learning with practice)
Sir can I upload tutorials on after effects cs5 because I don't have the latest version because of shity pc
Is their any issue plz reply.. & big fan
such great content
10:34 what film is this?
The Hunt for Red October.
