Bro in a sea of comments, here’s mine Your work stands out, your images, your story telling ability, your humor and genuine personality are increasingly inspirational. Reminds me of some high end commercial work for Marriott and other big name brands films, also loved the cameo in the middle, and forest Gump running vibes (just watched that again recently)! Anyways always excited to see your work my man! Keep it up!
That was BRILLIANT! To me, it was like watching a mini movie. So entertaining and had no clue the Sony FX3 is capable of doing all of this. MIND BLOWING 🤯 May you please show us how you did all of this? It’s very inspiring 😊
omgosh how are you so goood! Storytelling was incredible on this one. Loved all those wide shots too freaking beautiful but more importantly telling the story
Agreed, great storytelling and visuals here (as usual). Between the VO, a kid running, and the end wide shots, I was getting Nike “Greatness” vibes: ruclips.net/video/nQWMLWoGEOw/видео.html
Danny I absolutely love this, its such a beautiful little piece. Got some huge 500 Days of summer vibes, especially at the start. Forest Gump feels in there too. Please keep making these!
I can't get enough of what you do. This is marvelous. The concept was hilarious. There's joy in your work because it's liberated. You don't have to follow anything, you kind of just do what you want and it's a positive echo chamber. Love this so much!
The arch that was built and delivered in such a short period of time was beautifully done. Such a great mix of deep story-telling with wonderful cinematics and just the right touch of humour.
This is a superb short movie. Great acting and love the voice over. The whole thing puts a smile on your face and keeps you smiling afterwards. Well done.
Man this is just amazing from each and every aspect from the story to editing, cinematography, framing, colours every thing is just put together so perfectly!!! Love from India🇮🇳
The fact that this is not only an amazing film so beautifully put together well thought and planned. So simple, and such an incredible story, AND practically a brooks commercial, is incredible! Please never stop!
Comments weren’t on earlier so had to come back. Absolutely loved this one! Especially that random guy peeing. I’d love if for a second next week you touched on what you think this video is worth. I know it’s spec work but what would’ve the price been had brooks hired you. I think that’d be super valuable to us learning the business side of filmmaking and hearing what’s possible / a good basis on where we should be pricing things. Also when the heck is Sansa getting her Oscar for all of these performances she’s played this year?!
Avoid grains in filming as much as you can then tweak the shadows in the post. But it will take a one hell of an editor to make it. You'll have much harder work when you had grainsss
We all love to talk about gears and camera, but how did you manage production wise? Did you have a small crew to handle actors and extras? how did you keep everything in check to produce this quality of content? How do you divide and organize your schedule, actors and all that happens behind the scenes?
after a hole year i could see this pearl! Everything about this commercial is just perfect. The script, the image quality, the colors, the voice over. Congrats on this work dude! it really caught my attention.
One of the most stunning, beautiful shorts I honestly have ever seen. The comedic aspects to it only make the overall story more striking. A true masterpiece Danny
Hey Danny, awesome stuff. Ive got some questions : 1. How do you find these awesome locations every time, for example at 2:38 - 2:47? (Also that about that white van, is that yours or you just found it staying in the middle of the field for no reason😂) 2.On 0:18, was that natural wind or you somehow made it?
He lives in Hawaii so step out of the tourist spots and close your eyes open and you have a beautiful scene to work with trust me I know it’s beautiful there shot there plenty of times he work tho and story telling amazing
Wow! This is so beautiful. I can imagine what it takes to shoot those scenes, and now i know why you get back tired after the shoot. It was worth it. How do you come up with your Ideas?
Really solid buildup of tensions in the opening sequence, combined with a wild left-turn into the unknown. Love the twists along the way. Quirky, but high-end at the same tie. Way to find an interesting and unique approach!
Dude!!!!! This is jaw-dropping feature film ready if you ask me. I was glued to it From start to finish. Looking forward to the behind the scenes, prep work and also how you were able to manage the different locations and characters since this particular short of yours is one with many characters. This brilliant.
Bro this wasn’t just a good short film, you’re giving away that you’re a genius 😳😂 This has Scorsese vibes, Forest Gump and such a nice slow pace. Pure art bro 👏🏼
How did I miss the day you uploaded this?? I was so ready for it! haha This felt so natural, it flowed so well and the storytelling was amazing. Seriously there aren't words, just incredible work Danny!
This is the best film I've seen on RUclips in a long time. Your skill seems to double with each video you put out! Very inspiring and educational, thanks.
You put so much work into these films.The average person couldn't even imagine. Its amazing to watch them start from just an idea to something someone can watch. AND ITS GOOD extremely motivating. KEEP GOING!!
Danny, every time I watch your content I’m left in awe. Your work provokes emotion every time without fail! Thank you for everything you do and I can’t wait to see what you do next!
Amazing !!!! I've been watching your vids for a few months now and while your other stuff is v impressive too , this one struck me. Really feeling the vibe from this, colors are stellar, narration and everything is on point. Congrats !
Just wow! This is crazy well done. The cinematography and editing is outstanding, not just because it's gorgeous but also the way you use it to tell the story - wich i thorougly enjoyed - Like the suspense-building scene in the beginning, and the small details like the well paced establishement shots connected to each quirky Mark-moment or the subtle dolly-ins for emphasizing. Love it!
Wow, Danny, you are the one. You are my huge motivation when it comes to filmmaking. I've been watching your videos for a long time and I can see that you are mastering the skills of storytelling!! Thank you always for the great motivations.
Awesome voiceover, amazing visuals and creative use of screen dimensions, phenomenal storytelling! This is beyond movie quality, this is epic! Great work friend!
Holyyyyyyy! This was so funny and BEAUTIFULLY shot. As an aspiring cinematographer, I loved this. Thank you for being an actual filmmaker on RUclips… not just a RUclipsr who is a “filmmaker.”
I love this so much. I can never get over the middle-school humour with the "smelling hand", the "taking a wizz" in the forest. Nobody else in a commercial world does it better!
Thanks for watching this! Feel free to leave questions in the comments that I'll answer in a breakdown video.
Thank you for a great video Danny!
This is so good

Nailed it mate, love the tone of this video!! Beautiful locations too :)

You actually managed to make me watch a commercial. This was incredible. Awesome job!!
I am a huge fan of making spec work and this is how it should be done! Bravo Danny you have inspired me yet again bro. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Moses!!
You've grown so much. Your style has developed so well, and the aesthetic and storytelling is just beautiful. Keep it up Danny.
Dude! YES! This is definitely my favorite piece you’ve made. The storytelling is on point, plus there’s a humorous twist. I love it.
Thank you Justin!
I've watched this video like twice every year since 2021, and I keep coming back to it, timeless, so good.
That, was OUTSTANDING! Love the humor and cinematography! And the narration is incredible. Danny keep ‘em coming 🤤😍
Thank you man!!
My eyes lit up when I saw you and Sansa in the video! Boss work as always!
Thank you!!
Man this is just amazing from each and every aspect from the story to editing, cinematography, framing, colours every thing is just put together so perfectly!!!
Love from India🇮🇳
Thank you so much!
This is a masterclass on storytelling, cinematography, and sound design.
You are a gigantic inspiration for a lot of us that are just trying to figure this stuff out as we go. Thank you for everything that you do.
I have never seen this type video before
And this cinematic shot is very amazing
Run, Mark, Run! Forrest would be proud.
What a heart-warming stunning and relaxing short-film this one is. Beautiful cinematography and the storytelling was just spot-on! 👏🏻
Jesus christ, the story telling was incredible!
Wow, such a great film, Danny! I would absolutely love to see a run through (no pun intended) of the storyboard some day😍
You’ll be in luck next Monday!!
@@DannyGevirtz Nice!!
Beautifully shot, edited, graded, and sound designed - that opening sequence was the perfect hook.
Thank you man!
The fact that this is not only an amazing film so beautifully put together well thought and planned. So simple, and such an incredible story, AND practically a brooks commercial, is incredible! Please never stop!
Wow I loved every single thing about this video, from the storytelling, to the camera work, to the music. Everything was just hands down beautiful.
Comments weren’t on earlier so had to come back. Absolutely loved this one! Especially that random guy peeing.

Also when the heck is Sansa getting her Oscar for all of these performances she’s played this year?!
Hahah Sansa needs that Oscar one day
the best spec video you've made so far ! every time you are pushing away your limits far beyond imaginable ! You're the best out there Danny ! Love u
How do you achieve such a dark “cinematic” look without having so much grain in the shadows? Freaking love the shots 🔥
I'd love to hear the answer to this question
@@nicolascaptures3977 same
i always get sooo much grain/color noise shooting in slog-3 for some reason..
All in post
Avoid grains in filming as much as you can then tweak the shadows in the post. But it will take a one hell of an editor to make it. You'll have much harder work when you had grainsss
Aloha D! You're so amazing...it was so much fun working with you man! Good times!
You’re the best man! Thank you!

He does live in Hawaii, so those locations are probably all around the island. Just a guess though.
He lives in Hawaii so step out of the tourist spots and close your eyes open and you have a beautiful scene to work with trust me I know it’s beautiful there shot there plenty of times he work tho and story telling amazing
Wow... I haven't seen a RUclips video that made me scared, happy, hopeful and actually laugh out loud in forever. Amazing job on this one!
Wow! This is so beautiful. I can imagine what it takes to shoot those scenes, and now i know why you get back tired after the shoot. It was worth it. How do you come up with your Ideas?

This should be in film festivals. Really nice script, and sensational execution.

Bro this wasn’t just a good short film, you’re giving away that you’re a genius 😳😂
This has Scorsese vibes, Forest Gump and such a nice slow pace. Pure art bro 👏🏼
Hahaha omg this was just brilliant. Was waiting for this to drop after the BTS video. Danny, please do more of these, you're a genius!
Let’s goooo!! Favorite part is that your camera is about the size of anyone in the comment section. Taking run and gun (literally) to a new level
I spent this whole video with a smile. Completely captivated! Thanks for that Danny.
Thank you man!
So ispiring!!! The coolest thing about seeing this film finished is having watched the bts and having no idea what could come out.
unfreakingbelievable he's done it again! Your colours are always dialed in to perfection.
I Have been waiting for this since your BTS of it!! This was truly amazing and inspiring makes me want to create some spec ads!
How did I miss the day you uploaded this?? I was so ready for it! haha This felt so natural, it flowed so well and the storytelling was amazing. Seriously there aren't words, just incredible work Danny!
The story telling in this video and the baseball video have been fantastic. Would love to see some behind the scenes on this one, as well.
Freakin love how you tell this story Danny! The tone you get with editing, the sound, the use of different aspect ratios and so on. just perfect!
Love this! The title On Your Mark came to me at the end.
This was it, this was the inspiration I needed to start making my short film I’ve been wanting to make for a while now
This is the greatest thing I have watched in a long time lol loved the little cameos as well!
The cinematics the colors the shooting time made it so special! You are an artist man
Awesome job Danny! Really loved the way you used all the different micro climates of Maui

Man.. Now this is storytelling at its finest. You just earned a new subscriber! Loved it.
Gorgeous! I love these shorts you're making
This is the best film I've seen on RUclips in a long time. Your skill seems to double with each video you put out! Very inspiring and educational, thanks.
I was totally expecting a car to just barrel into the little girl but I died when it was just him running by 😂
What a stunner videography and boi the storytelling!
Danny dan boi you've earned another sub
I don't know how many times I have watched this video, man it's beautiful
You’re a full company compressed into one guy
You put so much work into these films.The average person couldn't even imagine. Its amazing to watch them start from just an idea to something someone can watch. AND ITS GOOD extremely motivating. KEEP GOING!!
Thanks so much man!
Bro. You had us on the first part. I paused to get ready. And, that was a refreshing twist. Bravo.

I expected this film to be deep and dark. I am actually surprised how original and great story telling it has! Nice work!
Danny, every time I watch your content I’m left in awe. Your work provokes emotion every time without fail! Thank you for everything you do and I can’t wait to see what you do next!

Another brilliant video. Love watching your stuff. Brilliant story and visuals
It is absolutely amazing what you can do with a small crew in a couple of days of shooting!
Thank you man!
I am physically clapping after watching this! man you're soo good at this, from the composition, the colours to the story line man!
Danny! Moving to Hawaii was the best move! The Scenery is amazing!!!! helps when the dude behind the camera knows what he is doing ;)
Just wow! This is crazy well done. The cinematography and editing is outstanding, not just because it's gorgeous but also the way you use it to tell the story - wich i thorougly enjoyed - Like the suspense-building scene in the beginning, and the small details like the well paced establishement shots connected to each quirky Mark-moment or the subtle dolly-ins for emphasizing.

Well, that was just perfect to start my day ! Awesome job there Mister Gevirtz, again !
I love this so much. I can never get over the middle-school humour with the "smelling hand", the "taking a wizz" in the forest. Nobody else in a commercial world does it better!
Hahaha glad you enjoyed it
