    Filmmaking discussions on RUclips tend to focus on the more fun parts of the process- FPV drones, transitions, etc. This video dives into a few less-exciting but incredibly important areas of filmmaking (composition, lighting, editing, and sound design).

    Bro, the amount of work that went into this video (and in everyone of them)!!!! Setting up for multiple angles, the prep for the talking heads... Appreciate the grind man. Absolutely inspirational.

    I have definitely been focusing more on sound design, obviously I'm still learning, but i see the benefit and the depth that it brings to video/film. Composition is another thing I'm trying to get better at, thanks for the tips.

    These tips are gold! Definitely agree with all of these, especially in the outro when you said that filmmaking as a craft is all of those elements coming together and working towards a concept. Thanks for sharing this video! Love the vlog/tutorial style of you hiking!

    Aidin: You have no idea how much the deconstructed explanations of your creative content, workflow, and process have helped me grow from when I started as a noob trying to document my bicycle trips, to where I am in one year. While I'm very happy with my progress, but I have a great deal to learn along the road of developing those skills in the complex craft we call filmmaking. While equipment, time, and financial restraints hold some growth back, it also forces me to concentrate on other things that are more important, rather than getting caught up with "too much too soon" Thank you for giving all of us insight into your great work. One episode that has really stuck with me, was your PNW film, followed up by the sound editing. Thanks again.
