I laughed out loud when you pulled out the FX30. I'm planning on selling my A6600 and stepping up to the FX30. I'm thinking of the Sony EPZ 18-105 and Sigma 16 1.4 lenses. It's a bit of a pricey jump for me, but I do like the idea of 10 bit color and better audio. Still digging your videos. You are a natural in front of the camera. 👍👍
Been waiting for this video! So dope to see that someone else is literally buying the gear that I have my eyes on! Can't wait to see what next year brings you! Congrats on the new house btw
Chris my man, great video and the Smallrig light looks interesting. I too purchased the DJI mic for a shoot and worth every penny. Crazy small and performed flawlessly.
“ehhh it’s a little bit of everything” 😂😂😂 I love that response and this is a very informative video I personally own a Blackmagic 6K Pro with two Rokinon Cine lenses but now you’re starting to make me rethink and just invest in DZO lenses I love those glasses it’s really affordable and it’ll dangerously increase the picture on my Blackmagic and you got me with the audio too thank you bro real talk you’re video popped up in my recommendations and I didn’t think twice to watch it I’m always on the look to see new content creators I haven’t come across you give me YCImaging vibes he’s one of my personal fav content creators you earned a sub my guy salute 🫡 imma give ya other videos an eye 🤝🏿
The OSEE looks interesting and it is quite affordable. I would love if it had the possibility to show multiple sources for multi-camera interview setups. One thing I noticed is that plant in the interview setup whichis distracting imho. I would place the subject more away from it or put the plant further back to get it less into focus.
I can vouch for chris. The DJI mic set is excellent. They are compact, battery last forever, and have useability. I've used a few setups before and these work GREAT for me.
Another entertaining video... Thanks for posting. One thing to consider for 2023... Using full-sized shotgun mics indoors is typically ill-advised. Look into a hyper cardioid (or super cardioid) pencil mic for interior dialogue... It will definitely raise your game. Cheers!
One thing I noticed with a director’s monitor when you’re shooting for a client it makes the people who is not apart of the shoot feel like they’re apart of the project if that makes any sense I get soo much more questions from people when I see they just sit there on the monitor spectating … it’s one of those things that clients see and just stop in their tracks and take their phones and take pictures of lol 8:49
I use the holllyland wireless mics and I love them. The kit is the same ...1 receiver 2 transmitters in a rechargeable box but they also come with their own lavs
First time watching your content and love the candid, kind, and practical feel you bring. I’m also a filmmaker and loved your perspective on clients. I started my own business last year after being with a company for 10 years. Do you have any thoughts on how you manage clients, pricing, and schedule? I’d love to see something like that as it’s been a hard balance to navigate. Just subscribed and looking forward to more content!! And congrats on the house 🎉😊
For indoor audio work, I cannot recommend the Schoeps CMC641 enough. Along with a Zoom F6 recorder w/32 bit float, you will get some AMAZINGLY pristine recordings, even if people are screaming or talking quietly. The Rode blimp is great(I use it with an NTG3 outdoors), but unnecessary for indoor stuff with the Schoeps
Do you think Cable Cam systems are a great choice knowing drones are starting to seem more harder to invest in. Do light diffuser’s need permits if it’s a curtain size I was planning in getting a few
For the DJI wireless mic, I learned the hard way that is highly selective of lav mics. The best budget mic for it is the Shure MVL/A Condenser Lavalier Mic (NEW). It’s really cheap but great and can be found on Amazon
hi Chris - would you be able to set all your gear up and give us a walk-through of the kit ???? - say, what you would use on a client interview maybe even do a mock interview with motion stops as you explain the equipment or something - many thanks - Shaw from England
I'm curious as how you can be using the Smallrig RC 450(?) for supposedly every shoot when this light has just been recently released! And I'm talking probably less than a week or 2 from writing this o.o I've always watched your videos for the truth and honestly behind them so I hope this isn't a "talk about this gear so you can buy through my link" type deal
I don’t make any money off of the link! They sent it to me a month early! I’m impressed with it, it’s much much better than my current light; that’s why I talk about it!
I have the light and trust me when I tell you that he is just trying to help you out. It is a game changer. This light has more output than that aperture light storm 600 the build quality is unmatched, and it is totally changed the way I film.
@@ChrisFranklinJrI have the light and I know you are genuinely giving a helpful recommendation it is the best light I have ever used it beats aputure LS600
OK Got it I bought The 6K pro based on your videos about two months ago and love it, but definitely feel like I need the FX3 as well for different reasons! Will be buying that shortly and rigging it out similar to what you recommended. Thanks for the help!
Oh man, I never heard of the osee monitor. I recently went on a job with a tv monitor as I don't want to buy 9K Small HD monitor. I'll order mine, thanks !!
I had to admit I clicked on the video because of the production monitor in the thumbnail. I would argue, if you are a professional you need to have one.
Honestly I fell like you might be loosing me (us?). I understand your journey as a filmmaker brought you here, but it's less and less relevant for common people. Sounds you are bragging a bit tbh My opinion obv

New set is DONE, so I'm back! Missed you guys! Thank you so much for 20K Subscribers!
It never ceases to amaze me how clients are impressed with impressive looking gear regardless of whether it's functionality is superior.
Such a good video, mate! Nice to see you back :)
Flo! Thanks! Excited to see what you create in the new year!!

Will do!!
nice suggestion
Any recommendations on boom poles?
Not at the moment! Parker walbeck has a solid look at them!
@@ChrisFranklinJr Thank you!
Just subscribed
Thank you so much!!
He is back 🥳🥳....
Great video!
I have not seen a real usage comparison with the blackmagic 6k. Beyond stats and lab tests
hello dude. your videos are so helpful. btw Im from Philippines

Hey bro, could u compare the canon r7 to the fx30? Thanks brooooo keep up the dope work, I just found your channel and I’m thankful I did 🔥🔥🔥
Youre má boy, i just saw youre channel and men, this Is cool i like, keep ON It
What mount is that for your sm7b it is killer is that wireless wtf?
Haha not wireless! Just the perspective! And here is the mount! amzn.to/3WSI9fQ
Hey Chris! Thought you were a BMPCC 6K Pro guy? When did you switch to Sony FX-3/30?
About a year ago! I use them both but mainly filming with Sony at the moment!
OK Got it I bought The 6K pro based on your videos about two months ago and love it, but definitely feel like I need the FX3 as well for different reasons! Will be buying that shortly and rigging it out similar to what you recommended. Thanks for the help!
Link for the case that fits the osee monitor please.
amzn.to/3YaPwAg
@@ChrisFranklinJr thanks
Just a fyi take off the blimp shield indoors. No wind inside
FX3 and 30 are nice...How is that DJI camera I saw you using?
Incredible!! But very very expensive and risky to own haha
Oh man, I never heard of the osee monitor. I recently went on a job with a tv monitor as I don't want to buy 9K Small HD monitor. I'll order mine, thanks !!
Super
Thank you very much
Am I tripping or does that monitor look super green in color
It’s the ND filter on my lens! Looks fine IRL
I’m getting that osee! How did you sell the lenses?
Locally for me!
Thanks for the vid! Which wireless transmitters are you using?
Currently using the Mars 400
How is his sure mic wireless somebody update me
Not wireless, just the perspective! I run the cord off camera behind the stand
Are you still using the ronin 4D?
If yes does it fit all the vespid primes?
Yes and it does!! DZO released a PL adapter for it!
Very inspiring video 🙏🏾🎥🏆🔥
Thanks for your sharing 🎉
Sub+1. I’d like to know how large the differences are between Catta zoom and its primes
Finally!
How closely are you related to Micheal Render?
Haha I’m not!
And when we need him most he appeared
AVATAR CHRIS 😭✊🏾
I had to admit I clicked on the video because of the production monitor in the thumbnail.
I would argue, if you are a professional you need to have one.
Check out aputure, mate
It's funny how 🤔 important "curb appeal" actually is to the clients!
RUclips recommended a video of yours. Thank you, RUclips -
though I do appreciate the 1 take look. I skipped through to all the good stuff. honest.
Putting a blimp inside is... ridiculous x)
All those light to save a few bucks up front😂😂 just get a nanlite or Aputure or Even beter: arri 🙏💵
Everything has changed~
Your channel is the definition of GAS
