Now I’m in a different country every other week, meeting new people, seeing new things and experiencing a new adventure every single day. Thank you to everyone that made this year, a year to remember, especially @beautifuldestinations and everyone on the team @jeremyjauncy @tomjauncey and @jacob.

    At 4:27 we see two smiling brothers, one holding the other. In the next frame, Sam stands alone atop a skyscraper, head hung low. The words 'In Memory of Tim Kolder' appear.
    Seeing these two shots by side shows the deep love Sam had for his own brother, and how isolating it can feel to lose someone so close to you. I never noticed this until now.
    Sam, great storytelling. Wishing you all the best.

      That is the point not everyone needs to be casey. Audience have a choice and creators have an audience for every type of videos.

    • @vivekvishwanath4958
      @vivekvishwanath4958 7 лет назад +15

      VMKAROUND, One can watch hundreds of such videos(MY YEAR 2016) on one go. but can't watch as many vlogs at once. Casey is best in his work and Kold in his own, we can't campare.

    • @Editisntreal
      @Editisntreal 7 лет назад +13

      VMKAROUND 365 I agree! Arul and Vivek Vishwanath, storytelling doesn't automatically mean you have to vlog. Here Sam puts amazing cinematography in one video, but there is no story he's trying to tell. The shots that follow onto each other don't have much to do with each other, except their movement for the transitions. I think what VMKAROUND 365 means is that if Sam'd actually include a storyline into his videos, instead of all the random awesomeness, he'd indeed be in the top tier of youtube. Doesn't mean he should or should not be like Casey or should or should not be vlogging. Either way, this video was next level dopeness. I'm sure he's in the top tier of inspiring young dslr filmmakers. Keep it up Sam!

    I truly must say, this was one of those videos that just had my jaws dropping! You should be getting an award for the time and effort you've put into this video. I know how much effort and time that must be put into this. Your passion and your whole heart can be seen through this video! You are a true inspiration for me. I've seen you grown in your cinematography/filmmaking and photographs, and it inspires me everyday to be better in my own creations and a better outlook on life, as I've seen in this video, you really just live your life to the fullest and that is one of the most greatest reasons why I continue to watch you grow. And I know big things are ahead of you. Keep doing what you're doing, I absolutely adore your work and your aspect on different cultures and countries that are shown so beautifully in your videos and photographs. It has broaden my perspectives on life, and through my tough times that I've struggled, your work has truly gotten me over the line and made me smile and my goal to travel loads and seek adventure! I know that no one would understand me or read this long comment, but I just appreciate people that are so passionate in what they do as they are so extremely lucky to be doing that as their jobs! I wish to be as successful and creative as you are!❤️

      For me, if we're talking about the video - kold does things I dream of, and that's why I keep coming back. I aspire to one day live life like this. From a cinematography perspective, it's the perfect harmony of creative camera work being perfectly synced with the music. When there's a rushing sound in the music, the video is rushing...etc. The transitions keep me tied in. Also, each scene is not necessarily related to the last one, and it keeps me guessing what's next.

    • @draori2348
      @draori2348 7 лет назад +31

      I honestly think Jay's videos are better, in the sense of story telling. Let's be honest here, Sam's video doesn't actually tell us anything, they're just a bunch of well-executed cinematography cut together to make us, the audience, go "wow that was lit" but doesn't really give any depth as to why and for what purpose. I like to call this the "Michael Bay Effect." Which is probably why Jay's videos are much more popular than Sam's or any other "cool editing" videos you see out there because it needn't rely on heavy editing which also proves why Storytelling wins in the case of film making. Point? Have a good story to tell. Cheers!

    • @VanoArts
      @VanoArts 7 лет назад +7

      I agree with Carl Mate ..Kolds videos have more effects and cool transsitions but he overuses them while Jay has a clean and professional look. Kolds videos are great but Ill go with Jay

    • @MCNGUYENfilms
      @MCNGUYENfilms 7 лет назад +23

      I don't really think it's fair to compare filmmakers of different genres but if we're going to do it, shot for shot there is so much more depth in Sam's footage and if you factor in editing it's no comparison. Everyone wants to live Jay's life but the better filmmaker is clearly Sam

    • @VanoArts
      @VanoArts 7 лет назад +6

      have you seen Jays new vid in Dubai? Compare cinematic quality to this video. This video has good editing but its overused too many effects too flashy too fast too random: the focus is more on the editing than the actual footage while Jay is very good at highlighting the good parts about the footage and as Carl Mate said: Jay is better at story telling and giving depth to the footage. This makes him better at giving the viewers emotions. When you look at Kolds footage you think "wow thats really really cool" but when you watch Jays movies he reaches your heart. Kold is more a compilation and Jay is more like a movie
