Smooth is fine, use a tripod Shallow DOF and half my subject disappears. LOL Can't shoot slow enough to make it worthwhile. 120fps just does not work for my videos
Great video. I try to use as much B-roll to tell the story. I use A-roll much like the narration for the video. What I sometimes say is that if I mute the audio, the B-roll will tell the story. That works very well. Also, when I go out for a _"gig",_ I tend to shoot the interviews first. I listen to what they say to shoot those things they talk about. This way I know exactly what to shoot as B-roll footage. Of course it helps a lot when you know what the people in front of the camera will talk about. But in many cases I don't have the luxury to have that much time.
Thanks for the tips on how to shoot b roll better. We film everything ourselves and we want to up level our music videos and RUclips talk show by including more and better b roll. Thanks, again! 🙌🏾😀
You have 100% explained and shown what b-roll footage is. I specifically played this video to try to understand what b-roll vs. a-roll is and you have very succinctly and easily explained it without a lot of technical jargon involved. Thanks so much!
I'm glad this man is fluid with his projection and talking points. It's all hits and never just a ramble or rant on and on about him and what he does, it's focused for you and helping you. Super great through and through.
Thank you so much Dovey for your clear explanation. Now, I can distinguish between A-Roll and B-Roll. 3 Tips for Awesome B-Roll. 1. Get Smooth Shots - Gimbal, 2. Shoot Shallow Depth of Field (Throw the backgound out of focus) - Wider open aperture lenses 35, 50, 85. 3. Slow Motion Shots - 120 fps recommended
Just subscribed because I wanted to learn how to start creating good content from the start. Lots of excellent information I can’t wait to implement in my own way. Thanks!
While this definition is nice, it can be an over simplification. Like cutting to a close up of a cellphone you are reviewing while you are reviewing it and away from your "A' may not feel like "Background" to a layman. As these would be very close intensional shots of small object. While on some level what you say is technically true, calling B Roll "background" shots could make some people think it's always like in the world of establishing shots or landscapes. When enhancement close ups (such as cutting to a close up if a camera you are reviewing) is also operating as B Roll.
A Roll like what you're doing now talking to us & the B Roll is like showing things or showing background footage. Stock footage that's like your bank saving minus the interest or zero or without interest. It's like your pandoras box. Your own treasure. Learning every time w you Jeven. You're a great professor w gadgets & you tubing. You're doing it w passion you just want to help. Sharing is caring. 👍
Finally somebody took care. As I saw over YT ppl thought B-roll was just any footage... they just like the term. Without bothering to look at the definition. Thanks! You can produce your project with A-roll footage alone: it is the primary footage. B-roll is supplemental footage or alternative footage. To further distinguish between the two types of footage, think of A-roll as telling, and B-roll as showing, or narration, and illustration.
Jeven have you thought about creating videos about how you started your production company? A series like Levi Allen's "Business Time" videos but more about your history as the owner of your own company.
There's definitely a lot of great information in your video, sir. I do sometimes wish there was a more complete tutorial as to how to film it while it's being filmed in a BTS sort of way, but this is actually the best video I've watched so far on B-roll. Thank you for your time.
Thanks Jevon I’m trying to get my real estate brand started and I think RUclips is going to set me apart. I am really thankful for your videos I am learning so much. As I implement what I’m learning I hope it helps get me grow into a quality channel.
I just found your video a couple of weeks ago and I’ve been enjoying each. I don’t comment much on RUclips, but when I do, it means what I’m watching is very informative. Thanks so much for your content which is VERY informative.
With pleasure and respect ,this is first time i understanding the deferent between A. And B roll, thanx a lot for this video .. And you give me more information about this awesome tips
This is a great explanation Jeven, thanks for all the great content you post. You're so good at explaining these things that no one else seems to want to talk about. Keep up the great work man !
Even tho my channel is about totally different topic, your video brings so much knowledge. I love it! Thanks and keep doing what you're doing! It's awesome!
Before watching this video I didn't know the difference between A roll, B roll, and Tootsie Roll. This is the first video I have seen that actually did a good job of explaining it. Thank you.
Jeven what a great video! Seriously your one of the best teacher's out there on YT. Thank you for your time and what you put into your videos. I'm loving this gimbal that your using and thinking of switching
Wow ! Thanks Jeven Dovey for that video, I understand better now ! I'm using the Dji Osmo pocket for my travel vlogs and absolutely love the slow motion mode ! Great tips ! very helpful to grow our channel :)
You did a SUPER AWESOME job with this video! You were very clear, straight to the point and your examples were very easy to be understood. Thanks SO very much! I've subscribed :)
I recently started recording and editing videos and I have started to notice the slightest change which I would not have noticed earlier, Now I can see the numerour clips combined together in your A-roll.
Great video with great A & B-roll …. explanations. ;). If anyone doesn’t understand what A & B-Roll is after this video, they probably won’t ever understand it . Thank you big time.
Best explanation I have seen so far. Thanks man.. we are just starting to learn everything.. using only phone and tripod or hands. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 😀
Blessings brother. Nice video. Broll is Definitely important. I'm filming a broll video within the next 2 weeks. I have something fancy coming lol. 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯🙏🙏😎
Subscribed! Like the way you explain this Topic, you come off as a honest passionate guy that wants to help us understand what its all about! Thanks mate!
Better than my actual film classes in college....I was never the *best* film student, but I got the basic concepts. And I use that for RUclips. But love learning from people to do it better.
I built a course for you on how to Make Money selling your B Roll: geni.us/BEftcyZ
Most of your shot from A roll and B roll lack headspace
Please photograph in drones, it requires a license or not
What I have to do
Very very helpful! Thank u big time!
33
Recently started my channel because of you, thank you for everything brother
Okay know I understand
A-Roll: Jack is talking about how beautiful the beach is
B-Roll: footages of the beach but with voice over of the Jack.
Got it
Doesn't have to have have voice over. It can have background music.
@@SERGEANTTOMATO yup
Tips: 4:00
1) Make it smooth
2) Shoot Shallow Depth of Field
3) Shoot in Slow Motion
Thanks
Smooth is fine, use a tripod
Shallow DOF and half my subject disappears. LOL
Can't shoot slow enough to make it worthwhile. 120fps just does not work for my videos
4:00 for tips
Thanks for the Tip
THNKS
THANK YOU I knew what it was after he said it the first time. I didn't need him to say it 6 more times.
Thanks
thank you, thank you!

B Role is so important. It gives an inside look, examples of what’s going on, and gives the viewer a break from one perspective. Great video
Thanks for the tips on how to shoot b roll better. We film everything ourselves and we want to up level our music videos and RUclips talk show by including more and better b roll. Thanks, again! 🙌🏾😀
B Roll will really help enhance your videos!

I just picked up the Zhiyun Crane M2. I’m looking forward to getting some epic BRoll shots. Thanks for the tips!

Your subscriptions are really growing. That's a testament to the quality of your videos and your content. 🙌
B roll is the background footage, A roll is the Audience, or the person you’re filming.
Its Church Life thank u, i don’t need to watch an 8 min video 👌🏼

@@TheDawnofVanlife totally agree.
Thank you for saving me 8 minutes 😂
Love the lens effects and buttery smoothness of your examples! Awesome vid thanks for sharing!
Finally I understand what B Roll is!!! Thanks!
Selling B-Roll as stock footage >> nice tip. *_Thank you!_* ♥️
A Roll like what you're doing now talking to us & the B Roll is like showing things or showing background footage.

This was very helpful! I had no idea there was even a difference in footage.
Finally somebody took care. As I saw over YT ppl thought B-roll was just any footage... they just like the term. Without bothering to look at the definition. Thanks!

I instantly understand what b roll is. Thank you bro. Your explaination is on point. Simple and sweet.
None of any footage gave me such a clear explanation like this! I got a clear idea instantly! Thank you!!

“The sexy footage” lol. Facts
That painting above your monitor is top notch!!!
I'm french and I understand you loud and clear. Best defintion of B-roll I ever seen (or read) on the net (in a 5min search)
thanks
Very clear explanation! I was wondering what B-Roll meant, but in your video I found the perfect explanation! Thanks!
Jeven have you thought about creating videos about how you started your production company?
A series like Levi Allen's "Business Time" videos but more about your history as the owner of your own company.
