The hidden benefit of filming by yourself is that you can be 100% in control and do everything exactly the way you want - you don't have to compromise your vision in any way or be shy or nervous about what others might think. You can be as creative as you like.
I usually get shy filming by myself out in public bcos i hate when ppl staring when you got a camera or feel like someone is gonna jack my shit but i feel like thats stopping me from executing my ideas. This vid def helped me out to say fuck it and just go outside and shoot it, lesget it thanks Vuh!
That shot from the back of the car in the parking lot, not only showing you walking toward it but also the rear view mirror of you loading the trunk…. 🤌🏿🤌🏿🤌🏿 Chef’s kiss, my brother, I loved that. Keep doing your thing and thanks for the inspiration. I’ve been low on it for this exact reason of having to film on my own, but this helps my energy a lot, think ima get back into it. 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
I’m a former professional actor. I learned production from being on set. Im naturally a writer. I’ve been in the real estate business for the last 9 years. I’m going to get back into filming to improve my content.
I've just found you and your colors, shots, compositions are just incredible. BUt I Have a problem, I live in an old house which don't look good for filming and I want to start recording youtube videos. I don't have lights yet, what will you suggest me to do? I have various type of lens, tried for getting background out of focus with longer lens but I didn't like it. Maybe I should buy some neon lights and shoot at night? or have a softbox which will make a good light on my face and record videos with that shitty background?
Thanks for these amazing tips! I def need to get a better tripod. But do you ever get scared when you place your camera far away or across the street to film yourself that someone might come and snatch it?
👁👁 🤦🏾♀️I THOUGHT A TRIPOD SIMPLY HOLDS THE PHONE OR CAMERA SO I DON'T GET THE DIFFERENCE IN A "GOOD" VS "BAD" TRIPODS... I WISH "TIP" VIDEOS SHARED & EXPLAINED MORE.... ALOT MORE... VIDEO HOPPING RN 💯
Appreciate you boss. Even in this video there are layers -- learning the patience to shoot at the right time + the color grade + the tripod + the POV shots + the forethought to take a decent mic on your trip so you can have good audio. In isolation, easy to talk about. Hard to do everything at once. When I first found your channel a few years ago I initially liked the fact that your advice was very unpretentious -- "the good gear is the gear that gets you out and shooting" -- but it's obvious that after putting in hours of experimentation you've arrived at a place of quality that way more over-equipped photographers might have initially pay-to-played their way into, and with a degree of honesty and organic style that they lack. Bit buzzed right now so that's more of an essay than I intended, but I hope it's uplifting/helpful so I'm leaving it
As a solo traveler hoping to improve my cinematography to tell the stories that I want to tell, thank you! Also it was the “but you don’t have any friends” for me 😅
Man I just found your channel, but you're getting exactly the look I've been after for a while. Very crisp and sharp but also rooted in a vintage aesthetic that doesn't seem tacky or overly done and completely works in the modern world. Very subtle. Taking note. Subbed.
This made me feel better and get out of my "depressive state". I'd feel bad because I had no one to help me bring to life a video I envisioned. But this just put a smile on my face and ideas in my head. Thank You So Much Vuhlandes. I'm very thankful.🙏🙏
Another great one, Just wondering if you are ever worried about someone stealing your gear or camera, I notice in many shots you are pretty far away.. I bet that goes through your mind many times, specially these days.
There is one more cool thing, but you will have to carry more stuff with you, it's slider that will add natural movement with parallax effect, which is much better than post-prod movement. Also gimbles like DJI and Zhiyn have tracking feauture, it can be used to create some interesting shots. Again, you will have to spend more time and carry with you more, but final shot can be worth it
Thank you for this! There's plenty of these "solo shooter tips" videos on here, but yours truly stands out in how you relate your decision making process around your shots and ideas. So much helpful insight in here. I'll be revisiting this one often as I get my channel/content going. Always love your stuff!
Tripod is so important. I got a super light one that I can shove in the side of my camera bag, and I got a massive camera bag that fits all my stuff. The beauty of this is that you can keep everything pre-assembled for quick filming on location.
I am proud to say my content creation skills will skyrocket after watching this video. I am really looking for creative ways to film and this was just what I needed.
This was SO helpful. I work in film and I know it can take a village to get these shots. You'd never think you shot these all on your own (and post production! Impressive). Incredible tips. Thanks for sharing :)
This was an amazing video man. Real creative framing. Makes you want to go and and simply enjoy the art of documenting life. I always tent to rush when filming this was a sick reminder to try and slow down and enjoy them juicy life moments!
Absolutely love these easy creative tips for filming yourself! As someone who's constantly creating content, it's refreshing to discover practical techniques to make my videos stand out. From utilizing interesting angles to incorporating props and backgrounds, each tip adds a unique touch to self-filmed footage. The advice on lighting and audio is especially helpful in achieving professional results. Thank you for sharing these valuable insights! 🎬✨ #CreativeFilmingTips
Superbowl what. They need to give Vuh the half time show for dropping all these gems. Motivation for when you feel down about not having someone to film for you. Legend
Your composition is amazing, with lighting and forethought about what time of day that will create a mood. Your leading lines are on point haha Thank you for the tips and inspiration! ✨
I feel like we are kindred spirits with the way we make videos with epic intros, except we make videos about completely different topics. I want to buy your LUTs but I would love it if you could do a video breaking down your process from exposing and white balance, right through the coloring process and application the LUT. Keep up the great content!
Awesome work man. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this. Now I gotta go spend some money on a good tripod and play around with filming myself! Thank you
Great video! I completely agree that watching a talking head in front of their camera for an extended period of time is boring as hell. I love your creativity and understanding how to keep your audiences attention. Some of your shots remind me of some of the crazy angles that I saw when watching Breaking Bad. They loved to put the camera in weird places and it really catches your attention.
This video is so beautifully shot. Like I know you’re teaching how to do it but all of these clips you used- the composition and the colors go crazy. I had to pause and say something. Appreciate you for this
For what it’s worth, your coloring is breathtaking. I mean that. I aspire to have the creative eye that you’ve clearly developed. This video hit hard for me. I know that I need to plan shots and shot with a purpose/goal. Every time I shoot without a purpose, I regret it. I hit a creative wall and it bothers me. I get anxious and I just go home. This was a re,under that I didn’t know that I needed to hear. So for that, I say thank you.

EASY Creative Tips for RECORDING Yourself! Misuse of the word film. We make movies. We no longer make films. Films need film. Film and digital video require different skill sets, different gear, and have different historical timelines. Film has 150 years of history and VIDEO has 100. Beginner with $100,000 of Gear vs PRO with $1000 Camera. Know the difference and be better at your craft. Your camera videoes, shoots, records, be creative.
@@lourdesgyan All good, just remember some very talented professionals have solely worked with film. When you say film or filming you are taking credit for a skill you have NOT done or learned. Denying others the ability to discern (learn) the difference. Respect to you.
I want to formally apologize (mainly to myself) for not subscribing the first time I came across your channel. Thank you for the tips and vibes good sir

You make me fall in love with filming again
Need you to shoot a feature film, the cinematography in all your videos is always at a super high standard

hi guys , you film in log ? or cinetone ? what is your favorite ?
You filming in windsor?
Hey man! Just wanted to ask how you always get your light soo soft, no matter if it's at home or outside
Happy to see another video. These are great base guidelines, easy to understand and lots of value in the tips. Keep it up!
@vuhfilms any recommendations for tripods? i'm completely new and got my first camera for a project. been really enjoying putting stories together
What’s the name of the mic 🎤 you are using
That’s crazy the intro looks like the movie moonlight
Came to say the same thing. I yelled at my phone “OK MOONLIGHT” lol
Right!?
That’s what he was going for
How did u do the moonlight look? I have been trying to do it also on pr.
@@wefeproductions You managed to do it, yet?

Subscribing to see what you do with this!
How can I use this Song for my videos without copyright?
Can I travel with u pls😭😭
Man I just found your channel, but you're getting exactly the look I've been after for a while. Very crisp and sharp but also rooted in a vintage aesthetic that doesn't seem tacky or overly done and completely works in the modern world. Very subtle. Taking note. Subbed.
Thank you so much for those tips! The colour grading in this video is insane ! As always you did a great job and inspire us 🤗
yeah the colour grading is amazing, how do I get that good haha
This made me feel better and get out of my "depressive state". I'd feel bad because I had no one to help me bring to life a video I envisioned. But this just put a smile on my face and ideas in my head. Thank You So Much Vuhlandes. I'm very thankful.🙏🙏
It is your time! You are using it on yourself. What is there not to love about self appreciation? And developing a skill
Another great one, Just wondering if you are ever worried about someone stealing your gear or camera, I notice in many shots you are pretty far away.. I bet that goes through your mind many times, specially these days.
Gotta know your surroundings fam 💯
