    Thanks for not being just another lut-pack selling, self-aggrandizing, gear-flaunting, conflating-vlogs-with-filmmaking type of RUclipsr.

    Your words and knowledge is so valuable for small filmmakers like myself.

      Simon Strandskov i hear you, I never want to become another creator just pushing gear. That said, in order to afford the time away from my filmmaking that these RUclips videos require there is a need to make some sort of income from them or else there isn’t a business model and I cannot sustain this channel.

    Mark I went through that phase lol... Trying to make my vlogs more like movies as I grow. Your tips about asking the subject what they are experiencing and to direct them to do things is so clutch to have in your mind when filming. I'm going to work on those tips. Thanks for this great video. Your kids are great 👍

    It’s hilarious when you do the examples of the fast/disorienting transitions 🤣👍 I started wanting to do more “trendy” transitions and ended up working more on “in camera” transitions. I feel like that’s a better trick to learn than just snipping up footage and confusing the viewer haha

I'm just trying to make films to fit with my original music for my channel but it's amazing how relevant your filmmaking tips are for that. Working in scenes, not shots - so true. It's same in songwriting - you can't just write bars, you have to write songs. Think not just small details but also the bigger structure. Thanks for the tips and your footage looks beautiful also

    I do agree with you. Sometimes you just get incredible shots but no content and after a while it just gets boring. I will study carefully these tips for an upcoming aftermovie video a client asked me.. and I feel that just a series of nice shots that just show what happened during the event is not enough. I need to bring some of the story back even tho is just 1 minute video. Great job, keep it up man
