Great BTS, and congrats for your wedding! One small note on the Core batteries, I was eyeing them too but then I went with 'Blueshape' batteries (similar concepts), mainly because their P-tap is on the side instead of the back. These batteries are already long enough and occasionally hitting them with our body while holding the camera is inevitable. I saw some Core users mentioning that the battery does not sit tight enough in the camera which could be some QC issue among the batteries and maybe not a common issue. One B&H reviewer had problems fitting various P-taps into the Core battery (that I also experienced in other batteries or battery plates)...which is a pain. All in all, thank you for your reviews on the C70, this is a great channel, good luck on your filmmaking journey!
Been watching your channel for awhile now and really appreciate your stuff. As a fellow in-house DP, down the road I would love to hear about more of the workflow you have to go through in the "in-house" environment. Like client/production relationship, approvals, pre-pro, etc. Keep on keeping on man. Congrats on the wedding!
I've been watching your videos for quite some time now (for atleast a year now) and I love your behind the scenes videos a lot. But I was curious if you were considering making videos about the business side of things running your video production company? As much as I am interested in on set production videos, I'm also really curious about how you even got the clients in the first place, how you manage your projects and money, so on and so forth. Love and support from Greece!
I was interested in getting the AtomX Cast but the no iso record was a deal breaker. I ended up getting the Shogun 7 and being able to take the program switch into FCP with an XML is fantastic! If you do a miss cue cut, it's a very simple fix in FCP, plus if you want to adjust some of your cuts, that's quick and easy too. Thanks for sharing your BTS! Always love seeing how other producers create their content.
We also have a shogun 7 and love it as well. It’s a bit more robust with the iso recording. This one was great for the price since I already had a ninja v
I want one of the atems as well for a permanent setup I am making but the ninja is great for location work. No cables or computer, just this little time switcher
We just got that pad prompter to replace a more expensive and rugged ipad prompter we used for years. The pad prompter feels kind of cheap but that's because it is cheap and it's super fast to setup and compact when it breaks down. I like it a lot more than the one we had before and I have no issue buying spares if something happens to that one.
I have been using a Core SWX NANO-C98 with my C70 for about 4 months - works great - no issues what so ever. Powers my camera, external monitor (d-tap) and wireless video setup (USB) all in one battery.
Our team uses the sennheiser avx lav kits with the mke2 mics. We like them. Range on them isn’t the best, but as long as you have line of sight they sound great and I like the compact form factor and rechargeable batteries.
Switcher looks nice, i only know the BM Atem‘s but this setup makes much sense too. Also cool to see you work a bit of a lighter setup for once too. Is this a regular thing you do too or not as much and more bigger productions?
Thanks Nath! I like the stems as well. This one was perfect for this setup because it is so compact and doesn’t need an extra computer, drives etc. I don’t do these types of jobs as much as I used to, but I would say 20% of my work is in 1-2 person crews
If it was the sumo 19 I could take all the feeds directly in and not use the ninja v. But I have the sumo 19m which is the monitor only version. Also, since the c70’s only have hdmi I can run them in to the atomX cast. The sumo requires sdi
Ya the 600d is such a great light. It’s my favorite for sure. I still like my 120’s though. Loving the charging case as well. We used to be so disorganized with chargers and this has been a huge help
Thank you. The one in the video was custom made by app developers specifically for fightcamp (the company I was shooting for). I usually use a pad promoter with PromptSmart pro
Haha ya I love Aputure lights. I own a 600d, 300Dii, two 120d’s, and a amaran 60c. Planning on adding a nova 600c and 1200d in the future. My company has several more Aputure 600d’s and 300d ii’s
@@GriffinConway the 1200d is insane! I’m really interested in a couple of the LS60’s for little spots but wonder if I should just save a ton of money and get the amaran 60d or 60x and throw a spot on those..? Theyd be in a semi permanent setup anyways and they’d be far enough away the fan noise wouldn’t interfere. I’m waiting on a 600x now… taking forever to come in.
@@ErisedMediaCo for me personally, I always prefer to have more output and not need it…because there always comes a time in the future when I do need it haha

Thanks Tyler! I just need to cable manage mine a little better now but it’s still such a game changer on set

This would be awesome. It's so hard to get going and make money consistently
Great idea! I have a few videos in the cue already but I will try to make one of those in the future

Great video also showing how simple a paid gig can be with just a few cameras and some lights.
Exactly! I thought this was a good one to show since it wasn’t as complex as some of my other ones. Thanks for watching
Been a fan for a while now. Congratulations on getting married man.
Nice video, love your content man! Also congrats on the wedding!!!
Thanks a lot Tucker!
Ninja switcher is so clean. I meet someone who would replicated a similar process with the ATEM Mini, but this looks much easier & less cables.

Is that Jordan Willet running your switcher? Small world. Cool dude.
Nice review,, thanks for the insight and best of luck with the wedding mate.
Thanks so much!
Congratulations and good luck for the wedding :)
Thanks so much Eric!
Great explanation especially for the multi viewer output from the cast
Thanks Brandon!

I heard from a few people that the nano c98 lasts as long as the BP-A30, even though it's bigger. Is that true?
@@miltontan - lasts longer - equivalent to BP-A60 imo

Congrats on the wedding!🙌
Thanks Danny!
awesome breakdown
Thanks Tim!
Griffin, I want to sound as chill like you when I grow up! 😆 (I’m 33)
Great content Griffin…congratulations
Thank you!
I love your videos Griffin!
Thanks so much Ty!
Nice, I think I’ll pickup a couple of those batteries. Any specific recommendations for the cable for atomos monitor?
I have a link in a couple of my videos. I forget the actual brand but it’s a thin one that can handle 4k60p
@@GriffinConway I was referring to the d-tap to fp cable.
Great content!
Awesome content as always Griffin, thanks for this! I had a quick off topic question: what LAV mics/system do you typically use or recommend?
Our team uses the sennheiser avx lav kits with the mke2 mics. We like them. Range on them isn’t the best, but as long as you have line of sight they sound great and I like the compact form factor and rechargeable batteries.

Hi Griffin, how are you connecting to the HDMI inputs? Just using long run HDMI cables or are you going wireless?
Yep just long hdmi’s
Thoughts on going the ninja and switcher over just the sumo?
If it was the sumo 19 I could take all the feeds directly in and not use the ninja v. But I have the sumo 19m which is the monitor only version. Also, since the c70’s only have hdmi I can run them in to the atomX cast. The sumo requires sdi
Man I wish I could afford those 600ds. Currently I just have the 3 120d kit.
The battery case is a dope idea.
Ya the 600d is such a great light. It’s my favorite for sure. I still like my 120’s though. Loving the charging case as well. We used to be so disorganized with chargers and this has been a huge help
please whats the name of the teleprompter (did you say fight cam ?) / great video by the way :)
Thank you. The one in the video was custom made by app developers specifically for fightcamp (the company I was shooting for). I usually use a pad promoter with PromptSmart pro
@@GriffinConway thanks for that
Hey, very interesting but you can do this on the Sumo itself... is there any advantage using the XCast instead?
Size, price, and the fact that my sumo19 is the monitor only version and not the monitor/recorder version. Thanks for watching!
@@GriffinConway Ah ok makes sense. Thanks Griffin and keep these fantastic videos coming. Learning loads.
@@alvinburrell definitely! Thanks for watching Alvin
How many aperture COB's do you own and which ones? I feel like I always see you bring a lot of them to each shoot.

Hey Griffin, bought your LUT preset for my new C70 and error occurs when trying to apply them to the C70. Any advice or help would be appreciated
Send me an email I’ll help griffin@visioncreativeco.com
That battery is really expensive but neat.
It’s actually half the price of the canon version but ya I love jt
@@GriffinConway I see almost 300 bucks on Amazon. Is that right?
