I'm not claustrophobic, but the absence of windows in the office area makes me uncomfortable. I couldn't work for hours in such a room. (I know there's a skylight, but it's not the same.) For the rest, it's a nice studio!
Windows are a must. Without windows, you almost feel robotic at the end of the day; you need those brief pauses of looking out the window, airing out the room or listening to the sound of life coming from outside.
Disclosure: I'm a new fan. I just have to say thank you for the amazing and entertaining content you create and for being so inspiring. Your light-hearted spirit is a breath of fresh air as I sit here going through you tube university for hours on end trying to super-charge/fast-track my photography skill set (yeah, newbie). I usually don't leave comments and you will probably never see this but just wanted to say I was inspired to drop a comment because I was starting to feel overwhelmed and discouraged and noticed you streamed this video on none other than my big 4-0 years of life on planet earth with the word "DREAM" in the caption as I dream about this new photography venture that has been overwhelming and exciting and at the same time, scary AF (not referencing Auto-Focus, get it, photography joke. I must be official. Ha. Or a big dork. Probably the latter.) Anyway, THANKS for making me feel inspired and like this was a sign from the Universe to keep moving forward.
There's something I think many people aren't saying. Peter McKinnon makes you love anything. From the room office, to the office with Matti, to the dream studio, to this! And even the next one! It's a great one!
The overhead of nice office space begins to wear you down over time. There is something to say about scaling down so you can scale up creatively. Nice job!
Quick Tip: I know you got the sandbags as a counterweight on your c-stand but you usually put the tightening screw for the arm on the right side so that it can't get lose over time.
11:02 these shots were so good I bet a lot of people looked over how much effort went into that sequence he even acted surprised at the end when you jumped over!
@@igugulethu7 ok... It's a basic/fundamental studio space, is it not? And he made it into something a lot of small time content creators would dream of, did he not?
But is not (even near) a “basic” studio! With all those quality lights and cams, you name it… is a dream studio for most of us. It is what it is and it is a dream studio.
There are many ways in life that the power of youth is highly beneficial; however, the one thing that youth could never synthesize is the benefit of age and experience. Bigger isn’t always better… less is often times MORE… and, simplicity is the key to success. I love this current evolution you’ve entered into, Pete. Going back to what made you who you currently are! Good luck and have fun, brother. I’m glad to be along for the ride.
Lots of businesses now are getting back to work and getting new locations post pandemic. It's really good to see! Great efforts and good luck as there is more work ahead.
So rad! I just did the same thing downsizing my studio space and partnered with a marketing group training one of their staff to run the studio and offer more services to their clients… Moved only the gear that is needed to achieve the goal. Simple neat and clean no nonsense! Congrats and keep climbing bro!
Going downstairs to grab a coffee and have a bit of social interaction is so important to keep those creative juices flowing. Liking this new place, feels like a start-up company vibe thing
I want something just like that, not within my budget right now but maybe in a couple of years. I suck at designing a studio and still trying to figure mine out. Working outside is definitely nice, I got an amazing view in my backyard when its not 110 outside right now.
I gotta say... it almost feels like STARTING OVER and I find that very exciting. I'm sure I speak for everyone here that I feel fortunate to be a part of the new UPCOMING CHAPTERS! Good Luck my Brothers!
Love how you can make the basic nothing look so nice. Definitely can see the experience coming through. I can’t stop seeing the drop tile ceiling with the air vents though. Maybe it can be blacked out or something? Curious what ideas you may have to help clean that up too. Can’t wait to see the evolution of the new space!!
You know Pete, you're one of the amazing photographers I follow! I really want to go on a shoot with you someday and learn a lot from your experiences.
Bro your intro is such a flex I can't man P.S. If you have any giveaways for a camera in mind PLEASE do a Canon C100 MK2 one. Would be very, VERY appreciated.
Creativity is ever evolving. That means sometimes it means we need to switch up our space. Which allows our creativity to continue to flow. Can’t wait to see your new space Pete!!
Hey pet ! How are you doing? I just wanna say thank you form the deepest part of my heart When I frustrated and depressed immediately go to your YT channel watch some videos it's all about you man not about the content you make, I don't know how to explain my feelings but i feel so happy when I watch your videos I just love who you are and I love your personality, I am from Syria I have been through a lot my life has been so hard but I am trying always to move on, And you being there amazing for me, thank you for being who you are thank you for the good videos thank you for your hard work, Thank you for helping me man you have no idea what you did in my life. Nothing but love and respect keep it up you are the man you are it. Thank you Peter 💙 Congrats bro lit studio.
Congrats! Looks great. Caution with the coffee… a little goes a long way. The more you have, the more you need to maintain caffeinated levels. It IS a drug and eventually can cause GERD, digestive issues, sleep challenges, caffeine rebound headaches and more.
As cheesy as this is going to sound, if it weren't for Pete and following his life and listening to his experiences... I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing. I wouldn't be where I'm at. Thank you for taking us along on these journeys Pete.
I'm trying to build out my basement into a studio. Low ceilings unfortunately, BUT I would absolutely love a video on how you set up your main angle!! I need advice!
Hey, I actually work as a Health and Saftey co-ordinator and looking at the wires I thought it looked like a distater waiting to happen. But it got be thinking. The light above your desk, how hot does it typically get? If it often gets quite hot maybe not have it touching the roof tiles 😀
@@OGtalks True, but even high powered LED Film lights produce heat, specially over time, not enough to start a fire per say, but still something to be careful of. Aperture and Arri lights specially as they are meant to be used over a long period of time, so do very much create heat.
How do you turn the key light up so much without light spilling into the space behind you? I'd also love to see a tutorial on crafting an epic video background on a budget! Lighting, placement, etc.
with light dome's you can have these filters that direct the light your using to focus one a specific place instead of leaking and filling a room. The filter looks like a net made up of little squares, that goes over the dome.
The amount of caffeine you ingests helps explain your productivity. One of my friends whose a camera nerd also wanted to buy a whole red bull fridge must be in your guys dna.
Thanks, Pete! Kinda loving this back to the basics vibe you have goin on, while you're in the process of building your spaceship, no doubt lol Thanks for sharing!
Been a fan since way back when you where shooting videos at the home office with gear in closet. It has been fun to follow you over the years. Also cool to see how many people you have inspired along the way.
Just slap a hi-pass filter at about 80hz on the mic in the main shot and that should take care of most of the low frequency hum of the overhead HVAC unit. I mostly heard it out of my subwoofer, so I bet 80hz and below are the offending frequencies. Keep up the good work on the new space! The challenges are what make it fun.

Fully agree. Widows and natural light inspire me.

and that Dyson rack? Mmmmhmmmm.
Apparently it makes Ricardo claustrophobic. 🙄
The overhead of nice office space begins to wear you down over time. There is something to say about scaling down so you can scale up creatively. Nice job!
It's temporary. He's not going to stay in this barebones of a space for long
Quick Tip: I know you got the sandbags as a counterweight on your c-stand but you usually put the tightening screw for the arm on the right side so that it can't get lose over time.
Pro Tip
In other words, so it self tightens with gravity.
It is set up that way if you look closely.
11:02 these shots were so good I bet a lot of people looked over how much effort went into that sequence he even acted surprised at the end when you jumped over!
love the vibes and new place Peter, you both look more relaxed and at home now.
I like these kind of videos. Practical set-up, specific gear recommendations, local businesses, good vibes.
I second this! More to come!
@@PeterMcKinnon Awesome brother.
The last studio was a masterpiece!! But I'm excited for the next chapter and watching how you transform this space in the mean time.
Nuts. People strive for years to get that last office and it was only a pitstop for pete. Such inspiration. Always level popping
You make even a "basic" studio look like a dream studio.
Facts
@@igugulethu7 ok...
It's a basic/fundamental studio space, is it not?
And he made it into something a lot of small time content creators would dream of, did he not?
Straight up facts
$$$$$

Going downstairs to grab a coffee and have a bit of social interaction is so important to keep those creative juices flowing.
Liking this new place, feels like a start-up company vibe thing
How is there no echo in the studio 🤯 it's like magic. When I tried to film in a similar space it drove me crazy.
lav mic.
Sound blanket does not allow the voice to bounce back into the room and the mic is close to the mouth
It’s called post production.
Few things; background music, sound blanket, boom as close as possible, noise - reverb reduction in post.
Slick love that you Showcased that it’s not about all the glam. Love that you guys get inspired by the community as much as space.
Peter Mckinnon is the kind of guy you want to grab beers with and just talk photography and content creating.
was bummed to hear the of end of chapter 3, but now I'm pumped to see this vid...Been here since early chapter 1. Killing it guys!
Looking great! Love the smart, affordable approach of using Apature lights in the rooms.
I want something just like that, not within my budget right now but maybe in a couple of years. I suck at designing a studio and still trying to figure mine out. Working outside is definitely nice, I got an amazing view in my backyard when its not 110 outside right now.

The video we have all been waiting for! DUDE!!! So dope from the before! You have a vision and the will to knock it out of the park. Well done!
I loved your Dream Studio. You did such a great job with that place. Can't wait to see Chapter 5
I hope this new studio fulfils all your hopes and dreams, at least for the time being. I'm looking forward to seeing the videos that come out of it.
Love how you can make the basic nothing look so nice. Definitely can see the experience coming through.
I can’t stop seeing the drop tile ceiling with the air vents though. Maybe it can be blacked out or something? Curious what ideas you may have to help clean that up too. Can’t wait to see the evolution of the new space!!
ya same.. kept looking at it.. altho he was making look at the shots specifically..
Congrats on your new studio. I look forward to my move at the end of the year and launching my new space. Thanks for the continued inspiration.
I really liked that little table/shelf thing that clamps onto the light stand! What’s the brand of that?
PM hitting the dab! Noice 👌
Back to Basics! there’s something special about simplicity
The blue neon light is bomb, great studio in general!
Super pumped on this new journey.
This feels like coming home, and I am HERE. FOR. IT.
You know Pete, you're one of the amazing photographers I follow! I really want to go on a shoot with you someday and learn a lot from your experiences.
Yeah you and everybody's brother
@@victoryredcolorado at least he has goals he wants to reach 🥰
Bro your intro is such a flex I can't man
P.S. If you have any giveaways for a camera in mind PLEASE do a Canon C100 MK2 one. Would be very, VERY appreciated.
Studio's coming together nicely! Congrats again on the big move 🎉
Why he sold his studio
Creativity is ever evolving. That means sometimes it means we need to switch up our space. Which allows our creativity to continue to flow. Can’t wait to see your new space Pete!!
Thanks! Can’t wait to dive into plans!
Hey pet !
How are you doing?
I just wanna say thank you form the deepest part of my heart
When I frustrated and depressed immediately go to your YT channel watch some videos it's all about you man not about the content you make, I don't know how to explain my feelings but i feel so happy when I watch your videos I just love who you are and I love your personality, I am from Syria I have been through a lot my life has been so hard but I am trying always to move on, And you being there amazing for me, thank you for being who you are thank you for the good videos thank you for your hard work, Thank you for helping me man you have no idea what you did in my life.
Nothing but love and respect keep it up you are the man you are it.
Thank you Peter 💙
Congrats bro lit studio.
Ow! The good old B-Rolls are back! 🥰🥰
I definitely liked the other space better it was much nicer and much more artistic
This is just a transitional space. Just wait to see the next place that’s being prepared. Can’t wait haha
He's broke...
And has to cut corners.
@@LaQuient lol bro what a hater
That other office most definitely cost him too much. Dream space can sometimes mean empty wallet space.
Yes, all the way!💯
Oh, please do a "tech tour", showing us nerds everything!! Congrats on the new office btw - it looks sick!!!
Show us how you edit your audio 🔈 2 minutes Tuesday✌🏻
Great suggestion!
Second this!!!
Congrats! Looks great. Caution with the coffee… a little goes a long way. The more you have, the more you need to maintain caffeinated levels. It IS a drug and eventually can cause GERD, digestive issues, sleep challenges, caffeine rebound headaches and more.
Hey...honestly, the dark ceiling panel in background is a little distracting. Rest looks good.🙂
Damn, I loved the old HQ🥺excited for the thing that comes in 8 months!💯
As cheesy as this is going to sound, if it weren't for Pete and following his life and listening to his experiences... I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing. I wouldn't be where I'm at. Thank you for taking us along on these journeys Pete.
Imagine adjusting your own life choices based on a mindless consumer guy on YT.
@@LaQuient Imagine being an @$$h0le just to be an @$$h0le. That “mindless consumer guy” inspires a lot of people. Why are you here? Who hurt you?
I thoroughly enjoyed this and love how happy you guys are with the new and modest setup. “Less is more”…
I'm trying to build out my basement into a studio. Low ceilings unfortunately, BUT I would absolutely love a video on how you set up your main angle!! I need advice!
oooh that tube light is noice
Yessir
Hey, I actually work as a Health and Saftey co-ordinator and looking at the wires I thought it looked like a distater waiting to happen. But it got be thinking. The light above your desk, how hot does it typically get? If it often gets quite hot maybe not have it touching the roof tiles 😀
Don't worry, barely warm. The only concern is stuff falling on the talent
More fun, good luck.. send us more..and one camera if you have a spare one... love to have one..
Less can be more Peter. Just be creative and drink coffee.
Looks great!!
Hey Peter, just a quick note: I think that your light so close to the roof can be a fire Hazard if the light gets too warm. Take care!
LED
@@OGtalks True, but even high powered LED Film lights produce heat, specially over time, not enough to start a fire per say, but still something to be careful of. Aperture and Arri lights specially as they are meant to be used over a long period of time, so do very much create heat.
more so at the source and or base of the light, not the light dome.
@@lukebowtell590 they actually don’t brother . I have 2 x 120D’s on in my
Studio 24/7 and the fan barely goes on .
The fan in the lights .
@@lukebowtell590 sorry brother . No ..
I love love love urban spaces and I think people take them for granted honestly
This is inspiring, turning a basic office into a studio. I love videos like this!!!
Me too!
Always an inspiration, love stopping by your channel whenever new ideas are fleeting us! Keep up the greatness!!
First
Does anyone know what chapter five is?
How do you turn the key light up so much without light spilling into the space behind you?
I'd also love to see a tutorial on crafting an epic video background on a budget! Lighting, placement, etc.
with light dome's you can have these filters that direct the light your using to focus one a specific place instead of leaking and filling a room. The filter looks like a net made up of little squares, that goes over the dome.
Dope squad sign for the win 👌🏽
People commenting before the vid is even finished.
Anyone else see the “Dear Peter Mckinnon,” video from Baris Alkis? It was awesome.
but why did you move :/
Success to you, Peter!
Cool to see the new digs
First like yeah
That a/c hum is freaking gnarly man....
Second
Simple but elegant set-up. The aircon grill at the ceiling is a bit of a distraction though.
Chapter after chapter, you keep on keeping it interesting - Bravo.
The amount of caffeine you ingests helps explain your productivity. One of my friends whose a camera nerd also wanted to buy a whole red bull fridge must be in your guys dna.
BTW I like the silent "bleeps" when Pete's pirate-side comes out;) Stellar work Kirk!
recommend wifi power outlet for the lights. That way you can set it to come on when you go to the office, or use your phone to turn everything off.
LIGHTING SETUP #1 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Back to the roots! Go Peter and Kirk!
LOVE these vlogs. keep em comin!
so much tech and still THOUSANDS OF CABLES.... i just hate it ajajaja but LOOOOOVE every inch of the new HQ dude... non stop growing, HUGE fan
Congrats on the new studio! What are those wood shelves you’re using to store your camera gear?
Awesome video Peter !
Thanks, Pete! Kinda loving this back to the basics vibe you have goin on, while you're in the process of building your spaceship, no doubt lol Thanks for sharing!
Yo Kirk! That Redbull flip and crack was SMOOOOTH!
Been a fan since way back when you where shooting videos at the home office with gear in closet. It has been fun to follow you over the years. Also cool to see how many people you have inspired along the way.
Thank you!!
Forget the bookshelf where do I get one them fancy hats ur wearing. 😅
Awesome as always and congratz on the new space! but, please chill on the warp stabilize cause I'm actually getting weezy on these vlogs haha
love the can rolling across the table part.... brilliant.
Main angle in Main Street, psyched, looks good and yeah, more art studio like. Thanks for the update and cheers guys 🙏🏻
Excellent Video. Your New Office and Studio Is Looking Great. Thank You.
PETE!!! SO EXCITED TO SEE YOU MAKE THE NEW STUDIO COME TO LIFE. ANY CHANCE YOU COULD MENTION WHERE THAT CART CAME FROM?
Looking great! You have to do some b-roll of the Mexican restaurant you mentioned! ✌
Littered with nostalgia.... awesome!

Would LOVE to see Kirk’s Vlog about: how it’s like working for Pete 🤭
Missing 120FPS light Board...
Keep it up...
Love pete... ❤️❤️❤️
happy for you guys being happy in the new space :) best wishes
Put a plant in the background. Literally adding life to the background

Love the content! Keep it coming.
Love all your vids! I don’t live far from there, maybe I’ll see you guys around Main St soon!!!
