[@NatashaJoyVideos]

Great video man! Question... What are your settings for when it gets dark?

[@evanf-raw]

Really depends on the lighting but 1/1250 at around 10k iso

[@NatashaJoyVideos]

How did u get a media pass to be on the field and take pictures?

What lens are you using?

[@KimberlyCooley]

What max focal length are you working with? I’m shooting at Grenada and I’m thinking on that level, I need my 28-135. I’m thinking use that for a half to be in the moment and then switch to a longer focal length and camp in the end zone? I’m using the old dinosaur Canon 1D Mark IV until I can afford another cam. 😊

[@evanf-raw]

That could work, just depends what your goal is. If you’re trying to capture emotion and feeling pregame then use the 28-135. But for just action the longer lens may make more sense to use. It’s just dependent on what you want to create.

yoooo lit video i love the little burt shots that almost look like a video, but I was gonna ask do ya individually edit each one or throw a filter on there? and how do you get the same "look" for each shot? sometimes when I edit the field is different shades of green and it looks weird

[@evanf-raw]

I set my white balance before, and then I edit my favorites then the rest are slapped with a single filter on them

[@howlingthunder3141]

@@evanf-raw yeahhh noise and keeping the subject in focus during the dark lighting is probably my biggest problem

[@kolecoatney8801]

when shooting for a high school do you just walk on the field like you belong there or do you have to ask for permission

[@BrayPNG]

just walk on, if they ask you just say you were requested by the players

[@angelicdig]

[@evanf-raw]

Sigma 60-600 f6.3

[@Michelsowers]
