Thank you for sharing about your anxiety with recording. I get the exact feelings between every video and it's nice to know I'm not alone.
Welcome back. Lets start by creating awesome things in your new Space!
Let’s hope so. Feel quite rusty
love seeing your commercial behind the scene vids. You're doing fine, and don't worry about the jitters, they will go away!
Thank you. Loads of behind the scenes and ideas to explore very soon. I hope 🤞
I understand and sympathize with how hard it is to get started when "the fear" has kicked in. When the momentum is rolling in your favor, it's great, but when it's not, it can be so hard. But be encouraged, man, because your work is fantastic and compelling and motivating. And we all want to see more of it, because it's so freakin' good, and because it's so refreshing to see someone so passionate and dedicated to his craft and to quality. Keep fighting the fear and making, because your work is great and beautiful and valuable.
Thank you so much Ian. Such a nice motivation to read this. I really feel the momentum could start if I can keep a weekly upload going. Luckily, already have a few more ideas that I'm keen to get out ASAP so if I can squeeze in the time between client work then I should hopefully for the first time have hit a weekly upload throughout March! Thank you for the comment, really inspiring to read 😊
Welcome back!!! Great looking space
Thank you. Yeah it’s pretty stylish. And the video I made for the guys has already got them 4 new enquiries 👍
Great new space... Now bring back the beer spec commercials - maybe a stout!... game on!
My friends think all I do is make beer commercials 😂 It's true, I do a lot, but they are so fun to film and i'd say they are one of the few pieces of packaging that really push the art design which makes me get ideas.
Gorgeous production quality on this video and I loved the intro! The studio space is absolutely beautiful.
Hey, thanks Staci. Welcome to my very inactive channel 🤣 New content being brewed up though
Great to see you are back in action James! Keep it up and I look forward to seeing more of your amazing videos from this new awesome studio! 😃
Thank you. Can't wait to start uploading regular content. And hopefully teaching others on the way.
Very cool space. I’m in the same spot in 2022 - I’ve made several videos, but haven’t posted one in 3 months. Maybe it’s the state of the world getting me down? Dunno. It’s to the point that I feel I might just save them up and release them all in 2023, but that’s probably a terrible idea. Anyway, good luck with inspiration and getting most out of that space!
2023 will be THE year 😂 I worry that would’ve been me if I didn’t just create this quick one. Just hope it’s the start of regular content 😬
That garden office - awesome Awesome AWESOME!!!
Looking forward to see your content... absolute fan and believer in your talent!
Thanks so much for the support and love ❤️
Looks amazing! So cool you got a dedicated workspace for youtube. I feel like not having one can hold you back a bit.
Yes agree. Having to tidy up a space in the house and then pack everything away again to avoid kids touching the lights and camera certainly was a time killer. This way I'll be able to leave a set design for days and in theory will make content creating easier.
Happy to see you pressing record James you are so hyper talented that with consistency you’re going to the moon 🌙 the anxiety part goes away … i think anyways but good luck with it 🤞 will be following your journey
Loving that description - hyper talented 😝 Thank you for the kind words and support. Let’s see if consistency is in my DNA
@@JamesKellyStudio just about building habits and the it’s a breeze! One day at a time buddy 💫
Sometimes we all struggle with videos... But for us helps the idea that we will enjoy the process of filming, editing, etc. We are always laughing at the mistakes we make or something drops, or just some weird sound comes from the outside :D
We love to create and it's really great to see that you creating these amazing videos too!
Pssst... Talking about the workspace itself it's just WOW! Glad to see you there👌
New space is lovely to work in compared to where I was. But.... don't let that put off any creating like it did me. I probably should have continued to make content regardless of my space, and embraced all the mess and roughness as part of the charm.
I remember when you told me to do the video like this on my RUclips channel. Was filming something like this last week and will upload it this week 😊
I really love hove you explained everything and looking forward for more content man 😊😊
Yeah definitely get your studio space out to the world. It’s awesome 👏
Congratulations on the new space 🥳
Thank you, hoping it gets me more productive
before watching this video, "great to finally see you back with this transformation we were all expecting!" (press play)
Welcome back to you too 👍
Glad to see to got the tool chest. I hope you love it as much as I do. And well done on pressing record.
It's great isn't it! Got a lot of compliments on it whenever someone visits. Certainly not the wifes cup of tea, but she doesn't understand the practical side of it.
That looks like an amazing office space. So excited for more content. Also, excited to work with you again soon!!! Keep up the great work! Camp Scoville on the shelf looks great!
Can't wait for more Camp Scoville projects! Hope all is well in sunny California 😉
Bro, same here! So familiar feelings. But your channel rocks! Love your content so keep pushing and don’t let us hanging! Much love from 🇱🇹
Thank you! Will do!
Finally!
Tell me about it!
I'm absolutely with you on that nervousness of restarting but you did it! Great to see you back and your fantastic workspace.
It doesn't need to be perfect you know, you are good at what you do (filmmaking and sharing tips with us) - nervousness is part of being human and showing you are human - which actually makes you more relatable so you build connection and makes us more want to to see you succeed.
.... must take own advice... 😬🤣
Yes brother same here...you are not the only one person who felt this ....i also the part of this situation....but you are doing great..just upload I know you are gr8... something is better than nothing.........🙋🙋🙋🙋love from India
Bro you are insanely talented!!! Can’t wait for what you have in store for us in 2022, and honestly, even if it’s just you talking and no b-roll or anything, I think most of us would agree that we’d still love it
Love it man I learned a lot just from the lighting bit. Great looking space, you would laugh if you saw the corner of the storage room I'm stuck in 😄.
Great video James! I know what you mean about being nervous to put out a video. We all get in our own heads and talk ourselves out of making videos sometimes. But seriously, there is no reason for you to feel like that. Your videos are great! They are always very well done and entertaining! With some constancy your channel is going to go big. Just keep it up! Also the video you made for the builders of your new studio was extremely well done! Great job! I am not as good at graphic design as you are and would love to know how you did the text on that video. Was it all in after effects? Show me how!
Thanks for the support Chance, always great to feel motivated. As for the text on the office video, well I actually was planning to explore that in my next upload. Got a product shoot on this week and the client has allowed me to use it for a RUclips tutorial, and one of my plans was to incorporate the 3D text effect. It's nothing new I guess but certainly something great to know how to do. It was all After Effects, but I do wonder if there is an easier way, hmmmm....
Stop thinking... do! You boy PMK once said "Done is better than perfect"... or something like that. I really enjoy your videos.
I really do need to start taking that advice, it’s hard when I want everything to be ‘perfect’
Wow. Fair play mate. Been a while since I’ve checked in with your channel and how you’ve grown.
Great video and congrats dude!
Thanks Brent, I was very lucky over the last year where one video got picked up. It's all a game of luck, but now I need to just continue with consistency, that very very hard aspect.
@@JamesKellyStudio hey you’ve got the base sorted now. Just need to keep the quality high and the rest will come. Keep it up buddy
That was a great tour, company sure to be happy with that video! New space looks great, hopefully gives you all the inspiration you need to make more videos. Would love to see a desk tour and recording setup or something like that. Noticed you record the audio externally? Would love to know more from a technical point of view!
Same here! I need to just press record!
Looks like you have a great setup yourself. 3 different filming angles is awesome. I'm yet to experience summer in the office. Hoping it's not a work naked to keep cool environment in July 😂
@@JamesKellyStudio yeah I built mine about 7years ago… air conditioning might be a worthy investment (trust me)
James... I love your stuff, but can we please check the levels on ALL of your music. I'm having to change the volume ever montage.
Sorry Paul, will keep that in mind for future vids. I do like an increase in volume for b-roll, sometimes without the impact it can feel flat, but will double check levels in the future 👍
Amazing set up. That is a new life goal of mine
I’ve wanted one for the past 6 years. Finally the mess I made got too much for the wife and she agreed to get one built
@@JamesKellyStudio ah, so that is the secret, stop tidying up 😂😂😂
Nice video James, keep them coming
absulotely loving the content, always a fan hope to see more video often now 🙏🏻😍❤️
Great Video James, i can relate to the fear of hitting record and post a Video. After a remodeling of the attic, that came out as a great gameroom / youtube recording space. I havent been able to create any content yet.
I planned for weeks to do a unboxing video of my favorite game that came out last month, recording the video felt great and natural, but after reviewing it, i came to knowledge that the sound was horrible and i spent way to many time on opening the box and putting the collector’s statue together. So i deleted every thing and thinking about what i can do next and different.
Keep up the work you do, your video’s have great quality. Cheers
Don’t you just hate it when you are most the way through editing and then realise it’s no good. The amount of scripts I’ve started and then never finished is awful. We are our own worst critic after all. What was the game? Board game or computer? Is this what you plan to focus on your channel? Best advise is to just get something out and everything starts to feel clearer. I already feel less stress and more excitement just from releasing yesterday’s video
@@JamesKellyStudio it was a unboxing for Horizon Forbidden west collectors edition (playstation videogame). I had a script in mind and that worked out great. Also most parts that felt unnatural i could edit out. But the sound on the recording was just so bad i couldn’t do anything about that. I recorded with my dads Canon eos 60D and used a Lavier microphone that had good reviews. The sound just was very metal. So i think i have to do some acoustics in the room.
The channel i was thinking of is about 2 shows. One is the room where i can stream games, unbox gadgets and do reviews about products. Second series would be vlogging about creating a youtube channel and my road towards it.
This makes me love to watch your video’s you showed some great skills in editing and a great tutorial. But also talk about stepping over the fear of hitting record and post it on youtube.
Nice work. Time to get going now 🙂
Keep going!
Quality Content. Keep it up 😃
Thank you so much 😊
so relatable man
I love your new space, I hope you can get over you anxiety and being more productive and create more good content as usual. BTW what's the program that you use to tether you camera on video mode? thanks for sharing
Here’s hoping 🤞 The program is just the standard EOS utility that you can download from canon. I’m sure there’s something similar for all camera brands but the canon one serves me well in regular client photography work and looks like now my RUclips creations 😆
@@JamesKellyStudio Yes def! Keep going brother your content it's really good!
What's the back lamp from the shelf in the background? Looks minimalist and cool, I might wanna get one of those.
Oh that’s just a lamp from ikea. It’s called the Tarnaby I think.
@@JamesKellyStudio Found it, thanks a lot!
