He used to post more often- Im assuming that he must be studying at the same time now or something similar that is taking up some of his time. He has worked hard and if he’s travelling or doing other things part time I think he’s more than earned it! As you say, just happy to have the content when he makes it. Feels like missing an old friend when a new video lands.
You mean hardware. Everything, and I do mean everything, was analogue back then. You edited film BY HAND. Which if he's committed to the bit, then EVERYTHING IN THIS VIDEO MIGHT'VE BEEN EDITED BY HAND. Which would explain why it took so damn long to get this thing out there 😂
That is such a beautiful phrase. Art is the expression of intention. So humans constantly make art when they love something because love creates intention.
excuse me sir, you do not “post stupid videos on the internet.” Your cinematic material deserves awards because this is more than just content, it’s art. And all 2mil+ of us love it!!
Liam will fully disappear off the face of the earth and then come back after literal months with some amazing-quality batshit insane idea with no warning, and I really appreciate that about him
i dont really understand how, but somehow this video with the 1950 film and b&w photos is so calming and satisfying to me. i really dont have the urge to watch any other videos today anymore. thank you, liam, this was beautiful
@GreatGizmo74Agreed! Same with tape. If you record music, buy a 16 or 24 track, ditch the fucking DAW, and never look back. You will have high highs and low lows but overall you won't believe tou settled for digital before
There are some lovely RUclipss like grainydays who do road trip film photography videos that are very calming Beautiful locations, nice photography and a slower pace to other RUclips videos
Shooting on a camera that you have to crank every 30s and change film every 2 mins, without audio, and then dubbing it onto a tape recorder for a 35 MINUTE VIDEO is some insanely epic stuff. And he did it for fun. Liam Thompson everyone.
It helps that we rarely get a perspective that shows Liam facing the camera really close up, but I agree that when we do see him the footage matches the audio extremely well.
This is the most quiet and peaceful videos I have ever seen on this app, everyone's all about being loud and playing popular music in the background and being funny but this?? This feels like a breath of fresh air. Like metaphorically and kinda literally. The pacing and the uniqueness is just jaw dropping. Seriously, wonderful job. This was a thousand times worth the wait.
like yeah, but then he ruins the whole thing with his extremely loud laughter, it's annoying. I personally find it stressful. but I don't want to judge. have a nice day
even if attention spans are hitting a slump with gen alpha, Liam is still making long videos with a really slow upload schedule, and THAT is dedication
@@AnnAnonyme just the mental image of him taking the camera on his RUNS and then somehow getting those 'far-away' shots IN BETWEEN CRANKS is so funny 😂. I'm very impressed.
@@darunius6886 Yeah, we used to have a lot of movies from my grandma that she took on her Super 8 camera, but the bulb for the projector started to be too difficult/ expensive to buy, that we had to convert them.
Liam, please enter this video in a film festival somewhere. It is beautiful and deserves the be seen by a wider audience. The creativity of the concept, the attention and devotion to the premise, and the engaging pace were simply lovely. The cinematography was beyond skilled; it was art plain and simple. The photography was stunning, and the editing... I have no words. Also, the choice to end on Back to the Future the musical, with its double meaning of the end of your journey and the settings of your two time travel videos, The 1980's, and the 1950's was just perfect. Seriously sir, this little short film deserves recognition.
Yeah, they were really good! I was nervous they were all going to turn out either underexposed or overexposed, but Liam obviously knows what he's doing!
I'm not even kidding, as someone who goes and sees the Oscar nominated short films every year, rarely do I see a video that rivals the filmmaking, storytelling, and aesthetic of those films, but you Liam Thompson, you have done just that.
This is the type of RUclips I like where its someone trying to make something that isn't necessarily fast paced and actually has originality through the execution.
Love that this video is slower paced and breaks the ultra-fast paced super loud and attention grabbing editing style that so many videos do. This is refreshing. I'm hoping we as a society are slowly moving away from the brainrot doom scroll type content. Lovely video!
I think my favourite thing about these videos is just how openly enthusiastic Liam is about such simple things, like the crackle of the record player and the novelty of sending a physical letter. Even things that are inconvenient or annoying are met with optimism. It's such a nice break from the attitudes in a lot of popular media these days and it's a big part of why these videos work so well.
Liam, your videos are quite possibly THE most delightful videos on the internet. You have such a sweet smile and attitude about everything and it's infectious through the screen! I want to try a week in the 50s now!
Analog quality was crazy, especially in 90's movies. Now everyone says that digital finally surpassed it, but I don't see that: Digital recording have zero details in darker scenes or if the contrast is high. Even in the highest budget movies.
I can't tell you how happy I was to see this video. I loved the 1980s one and I think this one was just as good, if not better. The cinematography, the music, everything was perfect
This might be one of the best RUclips videos I've ever seen. This should win an Oscar or something?? I could write a thesis on this video! This has so many complex themes interwoven and retold in such a glorious way AND its fucking beautiful uhm excuse me!! Slay king!!! 💅 ka pai mate you've only gone and done it 👏👏
This man might not upload much, but every video is like if pixar were to come out with a new movie. Just amazing work this man puts together for us too watch.
This is by far the most beautiful video I’ve ever seen on this site. Holy crap. Liam. Mr fricking Thompson!!! You’ve absolutely outdone yourself!!! MY WORD Edit: realizing he can’t even get money from this because of the copyrighted music oh my gosh he’s just making this for fun
This was endlessly entertaining! I especially loved how you took to the typewriter like a fish to water: you were just in your element. And the photos you took came out great! It's funny how we take our technology for granted, but also, at the same time, kind of lose our sense of self-reliance. It's proven that writing by hand improves memory, and unplugging from the internet decreases stress. In a way, what you did for that week probably improved your mental health.
You don't always have to outdo yourself. But it's a pleasure when you do. The photos were absolutely stunning. That very first one of your cat was just so warm and perfect. All of them somehow seemed to catch a glimmer of the essence of that time even though you only just took them not long ago. The way you captured your experience on film was really good too. Quite the dubbing. I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't said anything. You just did a really really good job overall. I hope you keep the phone and the typewriter and the record player. They are all beautiful and functional. Yeah. You outdid yourself. Again.
I remember when you were just a guy making 5 minute videos about teaching his dog to do all kinds of things in your bedroom. Great progress man, we love you!!❤
Just wanted to feed the algorithm.. I don't usually, but I had tears in my eyes at the end. I am struggling to name the emotions this vid evoked, but I think I might have like the strongest nostalgia I have ever felt, for a time I've never known
I have consumed way too much YT and I have no problem saying that this is one of if not the best YT video I've ever watched. Thank you for this. No, thank you really. Oh and please, never stop.
Okay Liam I’m not exaggerating but this is now my favorite video on this entire platform. I love it so much! You did such a great job and this must’ve taken FOREVER!!
Your channel was most certainly a small part of my childhood. For some reason I’ve strained off for some time and this is the first video I’ve seen since a few years. I really loved this short film and I really want to thank you for all the effort you put into your work. This made my evening!!!
This video is an absolute masterpiece, and you took some genuinely beautiful photographs! The one of the guy in the newspaper stand is just incredible, I actually paused the video and looked at it for a few minutes in awe. Hats off to you, Sir!
I love all the sightseeing photos at the end, and in the middle of all the ones that don't look too out of the ordinary for the "old black and white" photo aesthetic, you have a photo of an Apple store LOL
What an amazing video, recently I’ve seen a resurgence of the 3:4 aspect ratio but not only did you bring it back from its origin but I would full heartedly say this is one of the best videos out there. Now days with how easy it is to pick up a camera and record or take pictures we begin to take modern day technology for granted. Having to think of every shot and without the luxury of knowing what you’re even shooting having limited film means everything was intentional making this video and the editing involved ever so much better . This is no regular RUclips video, this is art. Thank you for sharing.
Everybody has already said such but like this is legitimately the greatest video ive ever watched. We need more videos like this on the platform. I cant describe the peace and comfort ive felt throughout this video. What a legend, take all the time off if that means we get this quality. Thank you Liam.
This is one of my favorite videos i have ever seen, the music and just the vibe of it is peaceful and nostalgic. Even though i was not born in the era just seeing the film quality and the photos it just brings me happiness for whatever reason. Thanks for making this, i will be returning to this video to feel this feeling again. 10000/10 video!!!
Bro I'm completely lost for words. This was beautiful man. I don't think I've ever been moved by a youtube video, I really didn't want it to end. The amount of dedication you put into this work of art is evident. Keep it up man!
This is hands down one of the best productions you have ever made liam, genuinely i dont mind how long it takes you to make something as incredible as this. Great job
Liam, that video was jaw-droppingly beautiful. I can only echo some of the comments already posted here - every shot felt intentional and it the most beautiful feeling to it. The use of music, the very carefully considered camera shots and the photography! Absolutely wonderful to see you again. I'm completely happy to wait a few months and get this kind of quality at the end of it. Also, did you have to dub the sounds of your feet running in the shots of you running in New York?? Keep up the fantastic work man.
I can’t explain why but I deeply crave this life. The speed of technology and the omnipresence of it exhausts me. I would love to travel back in time to see what it was like.
This video was just incredible. Something about the quality of the recording made it so unique, and those photos you took were beautiful. Thank you for making this video as i can imagine it took a lot of work to complete this. Well done for creating this art 😊
I’m studying Photography and it’s my second year here… this video is absolutely stunning. The fact that you are using all film is so esthetically beautiful ✨
I gotta say i was very impressed by the quality of the Bolex. It was very clear and the colors were very nice. This was a great vid, take however long u need to make your content, its all great.
Love this! Artistic and nostalgic. It makes me want to watch classic movies and listen to records. I'm just old enough to have had a rotary phone and a record player in my childhood home. When your phone rang, it took me right back there. I need that ringtone on my mobile. Your zest for life shines through, and I really appreciate that considering all the turmoil and cynicism in the world. Thanks, Liam.
I've been a long term fan of yours Liam, but this has got to be one of my favourite videos you've ever made. The concept, combined with the complex and pleasing cinematography was so captivating! Also, good to see a vid from you (finally) 😂
I don’t know why but I couldn’t stop smiling watching this! I felt so nostalgic for some reason; perhaps it was the style of film that I love or even just the vibes. The cinematography was beautiful and overall this was just a masterpiece of a video. Thank you so much Liam for making me feel things I haven’t felt in a long time.
just got done actually watching the video. genuinely kinda tearing up. that was so beautiful???? it felt like i just watched one of those movies that leave you feeling nothing for like 2 days (in the best way possible)
The amount of effort and time put into his videos is insane. they are incredibly well made and of high quality and it shows. Keep going man I can't begin to imagine how long this must have taken, especially an entire WEEK.
Hey Liam! I live in NYC and your perspective through the lens of that film camera honestly made me fall in love with the city again. Some of the best pictures I have seen.
This is one of the most beautiful video's I've ever seen. I love the nostalgic look and sound, and those fading transitions. I feel like you don't see that style anymore. Especially with new technology and filming styles. Slow transitions are my favorite. You did a great job editing this video!!!
This might be the best video I've seen on RUclips, there's something whimsical about the grainy and bad audio mixed with the beautiful visuals, a lot of this is shot very well, I admire your dedication to the filming 💜
Honestly Liam one of the most beautiful videos I’ve ever watched you’ve really made me appreciate everything so ‘simple’ you should be so proud of yourself and this video man I can’t wait to be a filmmaker
This video is just amazing! The reason I am subscribed to Liam is his style of film making is just so unique (and of course he is hilarious), and this is just… well I have no words. This was a great break from the fast paced, technical world we live in.
Liam, your filmmaking and editing and overall presentation has become so polished over the years, it’s amazing to see. Such a joy to watch you evolve over the years.
This is my new favourite video of yours. I love the dedication of shooting it on film, and a lot of the shots turned out really beautiful! I'd love to see more like this from you in the future, keep it up!
Wow, I absolutely love what you've done with the videography in this video! The cinematic shots are next level, especially considering how your channel has evolved. As a small RUclipsr myself just starting to dive into media and film, I really look up to creators like you who push boundaries with production quality. It gives me so much motivation to keep improving my craft and dreaming bigger. Thanks for setting such a high bar and inspiring us smaller creators. Keep doing your thing-you're an absolute legend! 🙌🎬

guys, dont complain about the upload schedule, he was using 1950s editing software

@@azerty.hardware is computer parts dipshit. Software is installable apps/tools.
@@azerty.good catch
For real tho! lol
You mean hardware. Everything, and I do mean everything, was analogue back then. You edited film BY HAND.
Which if he's committed to the bit, then EVERYTHING IN THIS VIDEO MIGHT'VE BEEN EDITED BY HAND.
Which would explain why it took so damn long to get this thing out there 😂
Every shot, every clip, every word, every song, every picture was intentional. Art is the expression of intention. This is art.
That is such a beautiful phrase. Art is the expression of intention. So humans constantly make art when they love something because love creates intention.
I hope this gets top comment
That's exactly why gave it a like. Its incredible!
he did foley (recreating the sounds that are on the film and recording them) and dubbing (voicing over the film) as well!

for real
How does bro even make money when he doesn't post for like half a year lmfao
he's the definition of quality over quantity...
@@Titanium.22_ I said this exact thing before opening these replies and saw your comment lol. he truly is!
i dont really understand how, but somehow this video with the 1950 film and b&w photos is so calming and satisfying to me. i really dont have the urge to watch any other videos today anymore. thank you, liam, this was beautiful
Film is so much more satisfying to look at and use than anything digital. I highly recommend giving film photography ago.
Ik I wish we lived in the 50s honestly
Beautiful comment, I highly agree ❤

Just the other day, I was looking at my subscriptions and saw Liam and thought, “I miss him, I hope he posts again soon,” and here we are.
Me too lmao, he was such a fond lart of my childhood and anytime he posts i just have a huge smile on my face
SAMEE
no bc me tooo!!!! and i must say this is one of my fave videos of his yet
Literally me yesterday!
bro same
Shooting on a camera that you have to crank every 30s and change film every 2 mins, without audio, and then dubbing it onto a tape recorder for a 35 MINUTE VIDEO is some insanely epic stuff. And he did it for fun. Liam Thompson everyone.
When did he become a master cinematographer?!? My words
And on a film camera where he can't see the output, no less.
He had 5 months 😂
When did he get more tattoos?
@@IoIxD EXACTLY
rewatch his old videos hes been good for a long time!
I forgot the video was even dubbed, the lip syncing was so good!
It helps that we rarely get a perspective that shows Liam facing the camera really close up, but I agree that when we do see him the footage matches the audio extremely well.
And he added sound effects too 😭 no wonder this took him so long
*syncing

@@Leenapanther Most websites are accessed through phones now, so for most it's an app.

New roll of film every 2.5 mins, crank the camera every 30 sec, dub the WHOLE THING with audio and it's a 30+ min video?? Dudeeee talk about mad!
And it didn't even look like he had someone else operating the camera for him??
And now look up the price for buying 16mm film and developing it!

Yess the 2nd picture of his cat was SO good! I can imagine him putting it on his wall
They literally look like some of my favourite photographs of NY in the 50s by Berenice Abbott

This video was just incredible. Something about the quality of the recording made it so unique, and those photos you took were beautiful. Thank you for making this video as i can imagine it took a lot of work to complete this. Well done for creating this art 😊
I’m studying Photography and it’s my second year here… this video is absolutely stunning. The fact that you are using all film is so esthetically beautiful ✨
I gotta say i was very impressed by the quality of the Bolex. It was very clear and the colors were very nice. This was a great vid, take however long u need to make your content, its all great.
Every now and again I remember that I'm subscribed to you. And then poof you come out with a vid like 3 days later. Missed you Liam!
Same bru
Love this! Artistic and nostalgic. It makes me want to watch classic movies and listen to records. I'm just old enough to have had a rotary phone and a record player in my childhood home. When your phone rang, it took me right back there. I need that ringtone on my mobile. Your zest for life shines through, and I really appreciate that considering all the turmoil and cynicism in the world. Thanks, Liam.
I think you’ve just created my favorite RUclips video of all time. Well done Liam.
You did a magnificent job syncing the audio! Great work!
I was amazed by how well done he did this too 🤯
I've been a long term fan of yours Liam, but this has got to be one of my favourite videos you've ever made. The concept, combined with the complex and pleasing cinematography was so captivating! Also, good to see a vid from you (finally) 😂
This video is actually a cinematic masterpiece. Every intricate shot is sooooooooooo beautiful. Kinda reminds me of a Wes Anderson movie and I love it
I don’t know why but I couldn’t stop smiling watching this! I felt so nostalgic for some reason; perhaps it was the style of film that I love or even just the vibes. The cinematography was beautiful and overall this was just a masterpiece of a video. Thank you so much Liam for making me feel things I haven’t felt in a long time.
The cinematography of this is incredible!! The film and colour of it is so beautiful
just got done actually watching the video. genuinely kinda tearing up. that was so beautiful???? it felt like i just watched one of those movies that leave you feeling nothing for like 2 days (in the best way possible)
The amount of effort and time put into his videos is insane. they are incredibly well made and of high quality and it shows. Keep going man I can't begin to imagine how long this must have taken, especially an entire WEEK.
i love this video, the videography, the photography, pacing and agendas are all amazing. this has to be one of your best videos yet
I love how Liam doesn't focus on pumping out video after video and instead just takes his time to make the best videos ever.
Probably the best RUclips video I have ever seen. Masterpiece 😃
Hey Liam! I live in NYC and your perspective through the lens of that film camera honestly made me fall in love with the city again. Some of the best pictures I have seen.
This is literally a RUclips Masterpiece 🤩 you’re back with a boom! Well done mate 💪🏻
What a masterpiece of a video... Can we have like, 10 hours of this please?!
This is one of the most beautiful video's I've ever seen. I love the nostalgic look and sound, and those fading transitions. I feel like you don't see that style anymore. Especially with new technology and filming styles. Slow transitions are my favorite. You did a great job editing this video!!!
That's some dope ass colour film for the 1950s. This is what ballin in the 50s looks like.
This might be the best video I've seen on RUclips, there's something whimsical about the grainy and bad audio mixed with the beautiful visuals, a lot of this is shot very well, I admire your dedication to the filming 💜
Honestly Liam one of the most beautiful videos I’ve ever watched you’ve really made me appreciate everything so ‘simple’ you should be so proud of yourself and this video man I can’t wait to be a filmmaker
Dude, this video is incredible!
This video is just amazing! The reason I am subscribed to Liam is his style of film making is just so unique (and of course he is hilarious), and this is just… well I have no words. This was a great break from the fast paced, technical world we live in.
holy shit this is a cinematic masterpiece. well done man
Liam, your filmmaking and editing and overall presentation has become so polished over the years, it’s amazing to see. Such a joy to watch you evolve over the years.
This is my new favourite video of yours. I love the dedication of shooting it on film, and a lot of the shots turned out really beautiful! I'd love to see more like this from you in the future, keep it up!
Wow, I absolutely love what you've done with the videography in this video! The cinematic shots are next level, especially considering how your channel has evolved. As a small RUclipsr myself just starting to dive into media and film, I really look up to creators like you who push boundaries with production quality. It gives me so much motivation to keep improving my craft and dreaming bigger. Thanks for setting such a high bar and inspiring us smaller creators. Keep doing your thing-you're an absolute legend! 🙌🎬
