I watched this video about 2 years ago on my phone sitting in my bed and dreaming about buying a camera to be able to work as a camera man or a videographer, I had no camera, no laptop, nothing but my phone back then with few dollars in my pocket while I was working alone as a salesperson in a mall far away from my homeland. I was inspired by creative and professional people like you, then now I'm working by my own with my own cameras and equipment and I'm going forward in this, I'm spending all the money I'm earning since that time on my equipment. my near future is gonna be bright. THANKS A LOT
Two incredible things were said here, and it had nothing to do with a camera. "There is a God that knows the needs of his children and hears their prayers and many many times the way he meets their needs...is through us." "Sometimes the small sacrifices we make at the moment can become a life changer for someone else." Thank you for sharing those powerful thoughts.
OMG - not only was the actual interview set up amazing, but the actual content you made, the video at the end - that was absolutely incredible! I felt really emotional. Absolutely inspiring. Truly. Those ladies are amazing. Everything I have just watched was absolutely incredible, thought provoking and inspiring. I never expected anything that I am feeling after watching this. Honestly, this has really made me question myself and inspired me. God bless you and those ladies and that family.
Omg! The most powerful part of this video was not even listed in the steps or mentioned in the title. The tech steps informed me, while the power and the vision of the story captured, moved me. Brilliant. Great job through and through👊🙏
25:15 I'm not crying, you're crying! 🥺🥺🥺💝🥰 Seriously though, this was a very informative video as a whole. But seeing the final cut at the end really tugged on my heartstrings and conveyed the importance of charity and community. Parker captured it BEAUTIFULLY.
Parker, thanks for the video! Great step by step tutorial on your setup. More importantly, the makeover stories are truly inspiring! I know you're teaching us how to be better filmmakers, but this is teaching us how to be more generous with the blessings the Lord has given us. May God bless you my friend!
Honestly, I joined FTF during the holidays and have spent the last few months "catching up" on all the basics just to make sure I haven't missed anything myself (been doing videos for 3+ years so kinda know the basics already although I don't always follow them myself). Literally got to this video last week and to me, this SINGLE video is worth the full signup fee. This single video is exactly what you need before shooting an interview, and with only 1-2 paid interview gigs you should have that money back in no time! I've also met 2 other "team members" from Taiwan in the Facebook group and getting this contact network honestly has unlimited value! 10/10 would recommend!
Seriously, for what you give people as free content, I can only imagine how in depth and valuable the full course is. Such a great resource for people trying to level up.
The information was amazing but the video at the end 😭😭😭 I was so moved. May God reward the team that helped that family, you guys are absolutely amazing.
This tutorial is simply perfect. so many tips in just one video. I also realized just how much work goes into a "simple" interview. I initially imagined it just one light, a mic and good camera. Boy was i wrong.
Was here at the start of Full Time Filmmaker. I knew it was going to be an easy investment. And I was not wrong. They've added over 1500 different tutorials since I bought the opening sale. Got to work with Parker and truly kicked off my passion and career in video making. Although I'm mostly in editing now. It still is so nice to have all this experience in case you need it. EASY VALUE. I promise.
I owe so much to this guy! Parker and his fulltimefilmmaker course helped jump start my Production company and career. His success is so well deserved. Thank you Parker. Continued blessings and success to you brother.
Your grasp of lighting is really solid and you seem to be a natural at teaching is great. I was also impressed that you were using a video camera and not one of those hybrid still video cameras. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. From an old retired studio photographer from the past. Keep up the great work.
Parker - not only is the tutorial expertly detailed and really helpful, the video at the end had me in tears. I recently joined Full Time Filmmaker for exactly this reason. I want to learn to make films to tell stories that inspire. Bishop T.D. Jakes said “If Jesus was alive today he would probably make movies”.
Great stuff as usual. I'd add one thing I learned after my first 10 interviews or so, the importance of makeup/hair and shirt cleanup. Take the extra 5 or 10 minutes to have the talent brush their hair if it's frizzy or apply some translucent powder if their face is shiny. The hair fix is especially important if you have a prominent backlight. These steps will save some pain in the editing room if that's when you realize the talent had dandruff on their shoulder or sweat on their upper lip. This also highlights the need for good 7" monitor or larger to be able to see these pesky details.
Bruh, how is it that you knew that I needed this video in my life?! Correct composition and setup of interviews is something that I always personally struggle with, so thank you for this gem of a video!
Very thorough! People are usually SO SURPRISED when I show up with all my equipment .... HA! Yeah, it's a pain, but worth it. I thought the acoustic panels were a bit overkill, but I also wasn't listening on headphones. Plus, I always use lapel mics, and there's usually less "echo" with them. But overall, very thorough.
Great tutorial Parker, and I've been doing this for a long time. One tip I picked up a while back for one-man-band setups is to bring a hair-cutting dummy head and use that as your stand in for rough lighting before talent sits in. I find this gets me 85% of the way, and is a real boon when framing your shot. You just need to set that dummy head's height to the approximate height of your talent and move things around her. Mine is named Eileen, because...um...she can't stand on her own.
Just fantastic information, thank you for sharing. As soon as I have completed your "Course Creator Pro" course I am planning to sign up for your "Fulltime Filmmaker" course... BEST Courses in the WORLD!
After watching the 8-step tutorial, I found myself filled with motivation and inspiration. This led me to immediately set up my equipment for shooting interviews, utilizing the clone effect concept. While preparing, the video continued playing in the background. Suddenly, the real interview commenced, and it was incredibly moving. It served as a poignant reminder of the challenges we've faced this year, particularly in 2023, which has been tough for many people worldwide. I can empathize with the inspiration behind your video, as it resonated beautifully with me. I want to express my gratitude for the effort you put into making this content possible. Well done, and big ups, brother!
Since i started watching your channel sir, i have grown and improved immensely in video and film production, i am self taught i love it with all of my heart...God richly bless you sir.
I'm glad I found these videos, although wish I had found them 2 weeks ago. I'm in film School at Full Sail and we are working on a Mini doc now and I have already gotten my interviews done working on B-roll now. But I have learned more from the few videos I have watched than my classes, it's basically same information but these guys make it more enjoyable and easier to understand.
Another incredible tutorial. Thank you! I recently filmed an interview for a client and I instinctively applied 90% of the tips in this video so I’m quite proud of myself!
Parker I just want to say, thank you, you just saved my final project for my TV class, now I know how to do an interview on a Drive to survive format, you rock dude!!!!
Thanks dude with the last short story made. Am actually working on my short documentary project, your video just gave me more ideas 💡 for my project. Cheers 🥂. From Australia 🇦🇺
Parker renovates the whole house with all his Equipment for the perfect shot. I am happy when the person is in focus :D Shot a 2Person interview and one of them was out of focus - shiyat... The other "problem" was that one person felt very uncomfortable in front of all the lamps. Very good explenations. Keep it up ;)
Amazing tutorial.... Really, thanks a lot! Your work is unbelievable. And the end... speechless and with tears in my eyes. There's still hope in this world.
Love Logan's attitude. Some person would say he's bored and dead inside, but he's perfect as a change of the fake people being excited to spend 2h being lit and mic'd up. Also love how it's not overedited, keeping the little cough in here at 15:37, keeps it authentic, nice.
This video was such a learning experience and really the last part had me crying. What a Incredible Tutorial and I'm glad I stick till the end of the video.Great stuff.Loved, learned and cried. Thanks for the video Parker. ❣
Don’t forget if the person your interviewing is wearing glasses that key light placement like that will more than likely have some heavy reflections. You’ll have to play with the height and angle of the light to avoid that.
Beautiful renovation, beautiful effort from everybody, beautiful people... and it shows in the beautiful video clip at the end I'm subscribing even though I'm not a filmmaker
Having filmed interviews for 7 years now, I always love seeing Parker’s process. It reassures me that the things I’m already doing are working, and it allows me to pick up new things that I never would have thought of otherwise.
This was a really GREAT Teaching tool and it was a beautiful story at the end... reminds me of how the people in my church and community come together. I embarked on learning video so I too can tell these amazing stories.
Perfect presentation, perfect explanation - I love the before and after shots that support your explanation. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience with us! Please feel very appreciated 🙂
First off, PRAISE YOU for speaking about audio. So many tutorial videos gloss over audio. Also, thank you for talking about treating the space with acoustic damping. A great way to add neg and dampen simultaneously (as well as ditch the hassle of transporting V-flats) is to use sound blankets: best of both worlds.
I love the essence taught here. As a beginner, the area where I struggle most is audio and techniques of shooting on the darker side. But now I know better. Thanks #FTF
Fantastic video I knew this stuff already but I felt like i was being mentored further by someone who is professional. I believe this half hour video for sure will make me a better film maker,
This is ridiculously good info. I thought I had a good grasp of the interview set up from the previous interview clip but man…I still have a ways to go! Thanks for your dedication to the craft!
What an amazing video, exceptional content. All I wanted right now was to be fluent in English to be able to absorb everything that is being taught. I can understand but not so much.
wow ! I found this video so informative, explained in a very clear and detailed manner, this is really my favorite channel, all videos are useful and done in a very professional way. thank you I learned a lot from this video.
very inspirational and I totally amazed everytime I watched your tutorial and not only that but to give hope for everyones who wants to learn with passion. Salute Parker Walbeck and to all Team!!!
Your original was awesome, I learned to shoot interviews from it a few years ago. This video was even better for a more advanced shooters with more gear. The sound dampening is an issue with the overhead mics, and the negative fill, and bouncing techniques were super helpful. BTW, sweet crib!
What a great presentation, Parker. Thank you so much. Extremely helpful. Just watching this has made my ability to shoot an interview better. The thing I think is so good is not sharing what to do, but to explain why it's being done, and showing the difference. EXCELLENT teaching video.

THANKS A LOT
Now we want a budget interview version as well
I was going to say the same! Great video tho. I’ll watch the budget one also 👍🏼
One with phone
Lol this is budget!
Window light, one camera and focus on the interview and the conversation.
That last part made me cry
This is the most complete video out there. After watching this, I am now confident. From zero to 100 now.
I feel like this guy hates us but gives advice because someone made him do it 😂
Two incredible things were said here, and it had nothing to do with a camera.

Pretty much described what I feel right now thanks haha
An updated and more in depth version of an older, classic, Full Time Filmmaker video.. and this is the free one?! Amazing 🔥🔥
Hi I asked u one question, which strobe I use and how i connect the camera ?
@@UgubTv1 you don't
Omg! The most powerful part of this video was not even listed in the steps or mentioned in the title. The tech steps informed me, while the power and the vision of the story captured, moved me. Brilliant. Great job through and through👊🙏

I use to watch these videos like 10 times and every time I watch I learn something new hidden on the details... thx man!!!
The yawning at 11:45 XD
poor bored soul.
The explanation is great. Thanks for the video.
😅
Honestly, I joined FTF during the holidays and have spent the last few months "catching up" on all the basics just to make sure I haven't missed anything myself (been doing videos for 3+ years so kinda know the basics already although I don't always follow them myself). Literally got to this video last week and to me, this SINGLE video is worth the full signup fee. This single video is exactly what you need before shooting an interview, and with only 1-2 paid interview gigs you should have that money back in no time!
I've also met 2 other "team members" from Taiwan in the Facebook group and getting this contact network honestly has unlimited value! 10/10 would recommend!
people can actually make a living just by watching this video, and this is for free, you guys are amazing!

Didn't expect that emotional insight at the end ... just beautifully captured ... thanks for sharing your knowledge and your passion.
This is a cool reminder to make sure I am not slacking on some of these little details.
I'm not crying. YOU'RE crying. Wow...that piece at the end. Really wonderful, REALLY powerful! Well done.

man, ive had so many photo and video shoots where a small issue like hair or a weirdly folded shirt have taken down the quality toooons
I'm always blown away by how much quality information you put out for free. Thank you!

What a Incredible Tutorial and I'm glad I stick till the end of the video.Great stuff.Loved, learned and cried.
Thanks for the video Parker.
❣
Wow. An interview tutorial that makes you ugly cry. Informed, impressed, and--best of all--inspired.
Oh man. I'm hooked. This is fantastic. Love it. Thank you for creating and publishing this content. Awesome.
I love the way you give advice straightforward and confident without unnecessary filler 💯
wow...!!!! what an impactful documentary at the end, for a sec I forgot that before i was watching a tutorial,.. more power to you parker ❤❤❤
Don’t forget if the person your interviewing is wearing glasses that key light placement like that will more than likely have some heavy reflections. You’ll have to play with the height and angle of the light to avoid that.
You have a beautiful home fam. Great lesson here too.
Parker went super extra on this one haha. No way I could carry v flats and sound dampeners around to corporate shoots, but I wish!
Black sound blankets will pull double duty
You really don’t need all of these things to do great documentary, but this good to know
Parker! Thank you very much. Yes! I learned something NEW! Yeah!
Beautiful renovation, beautiful effort from everybody, beautiful people... and it shows in the beautiful video clip at the end
I'm subscribing even though I'm not a filmmaker
❗The most valuable video for all filmmakers, regardless of their level of experience. Everything is super 👏

Side apart of the perfect tecniques, and perfect explanation, it is so beatifull all the project , and all that people are envolved!
Final cut was amazing and gave me goosebumps! Great job Parker!
Awesome video! Great music too! You set this one on fire bro'!
You and your wife are doing great things Parker. Big ups.
Wow I’m speechless with the way you teach
Love Logan! Gotta bring him back for future videos!
I love the essence taught here. As a beginner, the area where I struggle most is audio and techniques of shooting on the darker side. But now I know better. Thanks #FTF
Explanation of Parker is the best!! You are legend!!
Thanks for sharing these steps. I love especially the finished video. Beautiful story. Captured beautifully. Congrats.
cool project big heart to you all for helping lives and people . nice..
You are so professional with dealing of light. Is there any different to setup this for female or elder people?
Fantastic video I knew this stuff already but I felt like i was being mentored further by someone who is professional. I believe this half hour video for sure will make me a better film maker,
Wow this is gold! Thank you for so much information free of charge! Will definitely watch again to get more information out of this video.
This is ridiculously good info. I thought I had a good grasp of the interview set up from the previous interview clip but man…I still have a ways to go! Thanks for your dedication to the craft!
This video just increased my love for videography
Superb breakdown! Can you explain the purpose of both cameras shooting at a different FPS? Thanks, have an awesome day 🙏🏽
Absolutely AWESOME! So inspiring! I can't stop the tears! Thanks so much for the reminder to NEVER stop looking for ways to do good!
You can't stop the tears? You ok guy?
@@venierjewelers I'm good. It was more a figure of speech to emphasize how much I was touched by the story.
What an amazing video, exceptional content. All I wanted right now was to be fluent in English to be able to absorb everything that is being taught. I can understand but not so much.
Simply wonderful video. Congratulations.
Bro , No words to say , but you are inspiring me AF.
Much Love ♥
Love these BTS/tutorial videos. Super informative.
Parker, I was moved by the sample of your mini doc. Great message...great reminder. Thank you.
wow ! I found this video so informative, explained in a very clear and detailed manner, this is really my favorite channel, all videos are useful and done in a very professional way. thank you I learned a lot from this video.
This is really, really good. May shoot a documentary for TV. For sure doing these steps
very inspirational and I totally amazed everytime I watched your tutorial and not only that but to give hope for everyones who wants to learn with passion. Salute Parker Walbeck and to all Team!!!
What an incredible talent! He's a whirlwind! :D
Dude you are amazing at what you do, God bless you bro 🙏🏽 ❤✌🏽
Man - found this video by coincidence. BIG BIG fan. You've got a new friend!
excellent information Parker. This is great. So much information and this is the condensed version?!!!!!
LET'S GO! Boss Parker is Back ✅
Could you do a 2 people interview setup ? I think it would be great
He already did one. Check it out in the course above!
@@austinbrady well a free video 😂
Your original was awesome, I learned to shoot interviews from it a few years ago. This video was even better for a more advanced shooters with more gear. The sound dampening is an issue with the overhead mics, and the negative fill, and bouncing techniques were super helpful. BTW, sweet crib!
gifted cameraman, so easy for newbies thanks for your guidances.
What a great presentation, Parker. Thank you so much. Extremely helpful. Just watching this has made my ability to shoot an interview better. The thing I think is so good is not sharing what to do, but to explain why it's being done, and showing the difference. EXCELLENT teaching video.
