The most incredible part of this whole amazing masterpiece for me is at no point was I sold anything. Which on youtube is almost unheard of. There was no cheap plugs and no one was shouting at me to get this "one thing that will make my videos amazing". Truly an authentic experience. Much love!!
I mean, he did shout out the one tripod that he uses that almost every RUclipsr and influencer was promoting at one point but he didn’t focus on it too much so I get what you mean 😅
@@joekaprodit’s good to appreciate things that you use but not directly imposing on someone… the video is impactful, you can now choose to be curious on gears he used.
i get you bro just wait as every other “content creator” solds himself and promotes atleast 1-3x per video, but until then i am watching! I hate it so much, i bought YT premium years ago just to not see ads but then everytime i watch some videos i need to be prepared to skip promotions inside the video like wtf..
@@peppek8631 yup. No ad breaks. No squares pace or artlist. And even the tripod was featured, but in a way that implied its what they use, and not necessarily what you should go out and buy right away. I actually get it. Sponsorships and affiliate sales let them get paid to keep making content, but this video was a breath of fresh air. I feel like I learnt way more than if the sole purpose was to sell me specific products.
That’ll change once he gets more and more exposure, maybe even land some brand deals/sponsorships and what not. 😂
Bro this is literally the definition of art, get this man the exposure he deserves
He is very big on insta and tiktok though
just the words that was flying through my mind
❤❤❤❤❤
amen!!!! im locked innnn!!!
likeeeeee!!!!! yoo
Brother I cant express it. A master class in under 8 minutes. People pay 50 grand to spend 2 years studying this and don't get as good a lesson as this video you've made. Kudos, and thank you.
Well said! Totally agree 👍🏽
Enjoy the intimacy while it lasts people. This brother is exploding this year for sure! 👌🏽
I just discovered Karl's channel. I'm surprised he has under 100k subs after 5 YEARS of posting videos. Did his content get good only recently?
@@lbrtvlldr in my opinion he has be nailing his craft for over 3 years now but definitely became legendary over the last year. He hasn’t been rewarded for his work as much as he deserves but I feel a tipping point is coming. 🚀
What a strange COmpliment... Maybe Intimacy's his thang...
absolutely
Literally 16 seconds in, I said to myself, " this is a cinematographer". You are immensely talented
the best creators are when they are small and you watch it instantly go "daaaaaamn" which doesnt happen often, sir you done it
THIS is SMALL?!?! Dang.
THIS is SMALL?!?! Dang.
How tf are your videos not getting millions of views? this is immaculate quality!
because they do not deserve it?
Give it time yall’ the algorithm will pick him up 😊❤
@@ItsAllWavyBabyoh yeah! Just wait!!
My guess is because of the thumbnail.
Absolutely insane man. The level of work you put into this is wild
Honestly so much work. I’m exhausted. Gotta start scripting the next one
@@KarlShakur An easy search: BIBLE + FREEMASONRY, through which lies and truth becomes easy listed.
So far i have listed 28 lies and 28 truth.
Have you started to dig? What have you found?
What do you know about masonry club?
About the evil rulers of this world, masons, what you know about them?
This was peak I am inspired!! @@KarlShakur
LET HIM COOK, literally, as a chef. Chef kiss
This is incredible. I've never seen so much effort and talent put into a single RUclips tutorial. You are raising the bar.
This is a fact... !
"You gotta be theatric because this is the arts!"
LOVE this. The too-cool-for-school content creator trope can be so paralyzing to fit into when getting started with this
"People who can't do, teach instead" has to be the most incorrect thing when it comes to this video. wow 🤩
For real.. I was pulled in the minute it started all the way till the end!!!
I was pulled in, dove into comments and will now go back and pay attention, thank you
visual & storytelling masterclass
I almost never leave a comment…but I have to this time. This video reignited a passion I forgot that I had, and honestly did nothing short of inspire me. The way you included elements of film making into the explanation of film making with seemingly such ease feels almost like an inside joke that I felt I was in on (even though I’ve never met you or seen your videos before). I genuinely don’t know how this video could have been better. Bravo.
Holy smokes I just stumbled upon beautiful art for the sake of art and artists. This almost never happens on YT. A miracle!
that "shoot from the shadow side" shot and edit was a killer flame. This video just showed that you're onto the next level. Most unique from all the other videos you have - a build up to this powerful transcendence of creativity.
This is my first video from this dude and I’m expecting this every time now going forward lol😂
This was DISTGUSTINGLY well made. The quality was inspiring tbh, so thanks and maximum props.
Holy shit!! This just gave me a new found appreciation for the craft of filmmaking!
This video is a gold mine for new videocreators. I can't grasp all the advice I got just yet.. I need some time to process and I also need to watch it a few more times
So unbelievably underrated... Keep this shit up bro forreal
Thanks so much man. More stuff coming
I subbed to you a year or two ago, it is INSANE you don't have a larger viewbase on here.
You have, by far, the most distinct style with which you convey your ideas, and without leaning on cliches.
Just so goddamn good
this is 100% the type of creative ideas i have in my head. your eye for this style is impeccable.
I started watching this while editing and it completely drew me in to the point that I didn’t want it to end. You sir, are a MASTER at your craft 🔪
KARL! This is a masterpiece on how to deliver knowledge trough the coolest way possible! BRAVO!
Bro as a chef who became a freelance visual creative. THISSS WAS BRILLIANT 👊🏽
this is the best video i’ve ever laid my eyes upon. absolute greatness man, i can’t wait to say i knew you before everyone on the internet found this masterpiece.
This video made me realize that if you are passionate about something the feeling that you give to whoever is what is worth whatever price you can give to the art
3:15 bro chopped the onion without peeling it. You have my full respect.
The fact you don't have millions of subscribers in WILD! Holy damn I'm looking at film in a whole new light now
This was f*cking insane. Omg, this level of work and artistic design for a "How to fil yourself" video is remarkable. My goodness, I'm so impressed.
This is hands down the best video I’ve seen in ages. Full stop. I’ve watched dozens of how to film yourself videos, and not a single one touched on most of the key points you laid out, and your advice just resonated and rang true, and you didn’t sell me anything!! And instead of checking the time to see how long was left, like I do for 99% of RUclips videos, I found myself wishing the video was an hour long. That was beautiful and brilliant and pure art. You are gifted in what you do. Thank you for sharing with the world. Keep going.
Insane level of quality in these vids, literally watching a movie (more thought out and better scripted than most Hollywood films) about how to make movies of yourself. Keep it up man 🙏
Ride it guy 😅
fr the quality and content is amazing
I feel like I should’ve paid to watch this😭😭🫶🏾
Hahahah right?
dont give youtube ideas
You paid with your time
Dude, everything you put out is pure eyecandy. Mad respect, man 🔥
Cinematography has to be one of the most beautiful forms of art that one can perceive something through.
Thank you. I'm not remotely interested in trying this but stumbling upon this really really makes me appreciate the channels I watch that spend so much effort on details. Raises the bar.
Amazing bro, the quality of your videos always surprises me how they constantly keep overdoing the previous one. Hats off to you, you’re literally a diamond in the raft 👑
The vibe of your videos is so warm, I love it
Once in a while, you come across a video that makes you wonder how the hell you get to watch that amount of effort and talent put into a video for free. That my friend is definitely one of those, thank you for that❤
My friend this is absolutely addictive. I think this is the most effective and absorbing tutorial for any novice who's dreaming to become a RUclips star.
I see a lot of Gawx’s video techniques, and its awsome, i love how both of you see life as a content for a good video. Keep it uuuuppp❤
Bro this video was really an Eye candy, instant sub.
Appreciate it!
Holy shit, this is by far one of the very, very best videos on filmmaking I have ever seen on youtube. You are a master of visual storytelling, Karl. Every second of this video is a lesson in itself. Creativity, humor, technical excellene - you got all ingredients for a perfect menu. All the best to you from Germany!
This video is absolutely incredible. Not just the amazing techniques and visuals but the point it gets across for the actual "how to" part of it. I love it. Can't wait to see you completely blow up!
I can’t even fucking move cause this is so good!
YOU ARE A REAL ONE
THIS IS THE ARTS!
This video inspired a whole new playlist. Storytelling! Holy moly, the effort, the craft!
This is freakin insane. I’m at home and trying to come up with ideas and searched ‘how to film self’ on the RUclips search bar and honestly just wow, I don’t know what else to say🤣 I’m glad I found your page
oh my god I haven’t seen anything this good in forever. So much packed into an 8 minute video but it was all so well edited and put together. It’s blowing my mind honestly had to pause and write this. A masterpiece seriouslyyyy
The way this suddenly got recommended to me is eerie. I've been really excited about this creative filming project I want to do this year and was stuck on a certain method. THANK YOU!! Your creativity is beyond appreciated ♥
This is the best video I’ve seen over this. This video itself is art.
so glad there’s still storytellers like you out here
Iv seen so many "How To" videos in my life and I have to say, Thank you for making it so entertaining, clear and straight to the point. You're dope asf for this and I cant wait to see what else you make. You got this!
oh. my. gosh. This video is absolute FIRE 🔥🔥🔥This is inspiring. I think one of the biggest takeaways is that STORY MATTERS. And in order to tell a good story, you can't just pull it out of your a$$. It takes planning. And planning takes WORK. So often we see a piece on RUclips and fail to recognize the many hours it took of hustle and grind to put something like this together. Absolutely brilliant. Keep up the great work.
I’m an independent artist, but I’ve been learning how to shoot decent videos. I’m coming out with my first music video that I shot completely on my own. I wish I found your channel before I shot the footage! This video alone is a breath of fresh air in the world of YT videography instruction. I seriously dig your style. Thanks for putting this stuff out. Watching this got me excited to record my next video!
You are a genius. Thank you for this beautiful and educational piece of art.
Karl, this channel is so awesome!! Love your style!
This video is the litteral definition of a masterpiece.
this gets me so excited to start filming and making my own creative art, all these different shots and techniques make my brain just brew and explode with ideas, thank you for this, i’ll be checking out your channel your film style is incredible
i'm not new to Karl.. he's been a beast on instagram for years and years until he recently started youtube. there is no surprise he will be an absolute beast on this platform and 1 million is not far away for this dude. i love this video
getting the ideas and perceptions is really important ! That's how transitions is born
My goodness! I knew this type and level of perfection was possible (with a lot of organization, creativity and talent), but this is the first time I've seen it materialize in front of me! It's so comforting, soothing and reassuring!
I just found your channel tonight, and this is the 2nd video in a row I'm watching of your content. I am deeply, truly impressed with your vision, skill, work, and commitment. Some of the best videos I've ever seen on RUclips!!! Bravo, sir!
I typed in the search bar "how to shoot self video for youtube " to help me get over this creative paralysis. Yours was the first one I clicked on because I felt that it was going to be a passion driven perspective, I was so right. This was brilliant, I was so happy to be at the learning tree. Masterful explanation and videography. I'm going to have to watch it a few more time to get past my slack jaw and start absorbing knowledge and technique. Its going to be a pleasure to watch your rise. Bingo.
I’m happy I stumbled across this. I fell out of love with the craft over the last 2 years. This video is definitely apart of the re-spark. Shoutout your visual nuggets too. They made me stay.
This video is immaculate.
You are incredible, and I so look forward to everything you put out into the world. I can't wait to try some of these techniques out myself. Thank you for your art. 💛🌟
i don't usually subscribe after only one video but gods was this amazing, and inspiring at the same time. it didn't just teach me some things about artistic filmmaking but it helped to generate ideas and personal motivation, and that's something i really appreciate.
amazing video karl, you've been an absolute gold mine of content for creating cinematic filming videos on yt!
You're the definition of a master content creator.
My goal is to be as good as you, starting now.
I'm.. you literally blew my mind.
This is the first video that I see of you and I already admire you,
I'll learn from you as much a I can.
Thank you for lighting my spark
bro made a masterpiece on how to make a masterpiece. what an inspiration!
I love how you did this. The way you used actual cooking as an analogy to explain your topics WHILE DOING THEM idk how to explain it
You are probably my favorite content maker on the internet. Love your style and the creativity you put into your work. And yeah, when I think about Karl, I automatically think about top shots 🤣
You‘re a cool dude
just created a playlist here on youtube where I can save important lessons on film making... this is the first one. Gonna grab it all and lock it in my mind and heart. Thank you!
this is someone who truly understands the art of film and pays attention to all the best details. Thank you. well done.
Been following your photography for years but your RUclips just popped up today and bro I am STUNNED. The creativity, effort, and production level are off the charts. Keep it up!
dude I cant fathom the amount of time and effort this took! As a person who always wanted to start filmmaking but never did (mostly due to excuses). This video sure has given me the push to start! Thanks
why does this man not have 10 million subs yet? the ART. the CHEFery.
artistry! taste! craft! elegance!!
Bro this has been the most useful video of this whole category of videos that exists that I’ve ever seen. It is a masterpiece. Consider myself a new and a huge fan
So many creative people on this planet.
What an incredible video!! You are amazing at filming, storytelling and teaching. Mind blown ❤
Beautifully crafted, beautifully said. 🙏 *chefs kiss*
One of the dopest presentations of how to film yourself I’ve seen…. Bravo 👏🏾
You've set the bar so high. I feel respected and loved through your every shot. Watching other youtubers now makes it challenging. Truly inspirational. Thank you, brother ❤
This was short, sweet, to the point and packed with important information.
You got another subscriber locked in.
Wow. I’m blown away. Thank you for sharing. This video is incredible!
From France ... Bro ! Thx Sooo much ! God bless you 4 help that u give ! 🙏🏿
THIS IS SOME INSANE ART
haven't been forced to comment like this before. what a piece of art. amazing work man.
Boom! There you have it: pure passion.
Wow your creativity pushes my boundaries and really makes me think of the shots I take.
the passion is palpable. praying for your success, sir.
This was absolutely phenomenal!!! Please keep perfecting your craft, you garnered a new supporter!! This was my first video and I can't wait to see what else you have instore!
I am almost 30 years old and often feel like I’m past the point of my best creative years. I do recognize the passion and creativity in you, though, and that is just amazing. Sometimes, I feel too old for certain mediums like making videos or choosing trending songs. But it was a nice thing to hear when you said “choose whatever speaks to you”. A very good reminder to just be true to myself.
Hey girl! I know you posted this a while ago. I how your creative medium is coming out. You’re never too old to do anything that’s in your heart. I’m 38 and started rollerblading again. I’m here because I’m picking up photography. You don’t know how long you’ll have your full faculties, don’t waste them.
I’ve commented on a handful of videos since RUclips came out as I rarely feel compelled to, but I just had to on this one. Bro, this is one of the dopest visuals, articulately but simply explained tutorials I’ve ever watched! And you’re a such a cool mutherfker!! I deeply appreciate your expression and dedication to your craft. Noted, taught and subscribed - thank you 🙏🏽
I found your channel two hours ago and you're like my favorite yt channel currently
This was a great video! The pacing, the content, the imagery etc. great job!❤
He's speaking so passionately about it! He really loves what he does ♥
You're such an inspiration! Thankyouuuuuu i really love your art!
