I’m honored to be part of this. Thank you so much for having me ❤️
Needed this! ❤
We've been wanting an interview like this from you Gawx for a long time! Thank you for willingly sharing your secrets and ways with us. I look forward to watching your first feature film and everything else leading up to it! Would love to see more vlog/bts content too if you are willing. God bless !
You really talk like that I thought it was part of the gig but that’s your real voice! 😂 🙌🏽
Tienes un visión de don sigues adelante mi bro ojalá podemos crear algo en el futuro 💫
So humble to share your skills
I hope to see a full length gawx film someday
Me too.
Gawx's skillset could be a whole college degree: Illustration, Studio Art, Digital Media, Cinematography, Sound Design, Visual Storytelling, Video Editing, Marketing, Fashion Design, etc. He's BY FAR, the most impressive multimedia artist I've ever had the pleasure of watching on RUclips.
He's going to be held in the same esteem as the likes of Takashi Murakami and KAWS one day.
I can't wait to see what he does in the future!
Don't forget, his gears set also impresive.
He draws well too
He's so good, very underrated artist
Gawx just doesn’t understand how many people he’s inspired. This kid’s got a bright future. If he’s doing all this out of his bedroom, I can’t wait to see what he does in a ‘professional’ setting
1. I didn’t want this to end
2. Spot on Jack for asking the most exact qns
3. Cant believe how geeked out i was for this interview 😂
It's like talking to the actor, the director, the producer, the camera operator , the photographer, the sound engineer,... at the same time. Everything he said is so well described and detailed, he is so will to expose all his secrets.
Jack your conversations have become my film school, these are some of the most compelling interviews / deconstructions. First watch is for fun, second is for notes.
Same!!
Such a humble genius. So young, but he's definitely one of the biggest influences in the online film world. So many have tried to recreate his shots and his style it's actually wild. Not to mention the many people that are starting their journey into the world of cinematography now, most always start their journey watching Gawx videos.
Also the Serr shout out is important! Lol I knew he'd mention him. Serr is also where everyone into that filmic look start off at. He's truly helped out SO much in the world of color grading.
The thing I love about your videos with these creators is that you literally stop and ask ALL of the questions that I have in my head and give ALL the same praises that I wish I could give to them. Every single question I am curious about you ask no matter how often you have to stop the video. I first came across your channel with your Natalie Lynn video and saw a comment complaining about how much you stop the video, but please NEVER change! The questions you ask and the follow ups these questions lead to are INVALUABLE to viewers like me! Every single video, I feel like I'm getting access to a masterclass, and it's all FOR FREE! You're a LEGEND!
Word!
This is SO SICK, there are even more tricks than I could have imagined. Hats off to Gawx and his family for creating some of the best videos on RUclips
You missed noticing his eye lightening up at the beginning when he opened the door to get the package 📦 at his door .. Gawx is great he has inspired me for long
I was thinking the same thing. Had to put it back, thinking I saw a glare on my screen.
Almost like Sin City movie effect

Godbless you. I hope everything goes ur way ugh thanks for this
10:16 is when he talks about what he uses to record sound. thanks for posting this!
Gaux is a great example of a person letting the “art” lead the way. He knows what he likes but isn’t worried about the science behind it. No histograms, no metering, just a hard working creative individual who nails the look! Awesome!
I came across this channel today, and I must say that the host is probably the best interviewer in the world, literally.
Man, I love how you are specific to the core with your questions and supplementing everything with lower third notes, pictures and all reference materials anyone could imagine.
Very much love from Kenya. I bet I gotta grab some snacks and kick off from the first video.
See you later guys. I got a bunch of content to watch.
Much love from Kenya, East Africa.
Big up to GAWAX!
Its GAWX not GAWAX
You could only break down a minute because of the massive work that goes into each minute of his work. So stoked to watch this one!!! 🙌
It’s so refreshing to know that the guy who makes the best looking videos on RUclips does not use histograms/waveforms or follow any of the rules that other creators force down our throats ..I needed to hear this. Thanks Gawx! Ur a true inspiration
This is not only a dope series. What really makes it for me is the authentic excitement and interest of the host. The way he really asks about every detail and geeks out over it. Really love that.
the way his mind works is so incredible, he's so talented and hardworking it's mindblowing really, not to mention the amount of patience and determination he has to actually finish videos!
Absolute legend! It is a privilege to be able to listen to this breakdown, thank you two!
You’re such an inspo Teo
29:00 is SO funny hahaha. I still remember when these videos came out, and I was in a bunch of film forums and so many people were discussing how he does his marker shots. It's so hilarious hearing him explain what we sat around trying to figure out for days LOL. I still remember someone called it perfectly and explained how he also does those shots where he toses the marker up.
GREAT PARENTING
love it when the interviewer is a nerd too its so fun to see how much fun it is for both of you
This is a masterclass in showing that gear doesn't matter. Creativity comes from the limitations and having an open mind to just try.
Dude is the Tarantino of content creation
This is the perfect example of giving a person their flowers the attention to detail you did in this vid highlighting almost every shot and letting @gawx explain his process is amazing thank you for doing this with the man himself !
@22:00 I think a lot of what makes it feel like time has passed its that it looks like some of the shots have "cold" lighting and the others have "warmer" lighting. Almost sugesting passing through the seasons. (Winter, spring, summer etc..)
Appreicate you ask all the important questions! Super useful for the viewer
it is so touching that his family helps him a lot with the videos, it shows that they care about his craft and are willing to see (and help) him grow
as someone who don't have that much of incentive from my family, it makes me very happy to see that there are families that make sure to support their creative children :"")
Been a fan of Gawx for a year now, I just loved this episode and jack's questions are so good it makes it feel natural and informative.
Thank you Jack for asking the exact questions we all want!! Couldn't believe how precise this was
Thank you, thank you, thank you Jack for bringing us these beautiful interviews! Please keep up this channel for as long as possible!
Jack, just love how passionate you are in your interviews and how you vibe with your interviewees.
Thanks for this amazing interview!
Best interview ever. I was dreaming you would meet Gawx and here we are!! Thank you!!
Absolutely love this! Just taking a fraction of his talent with camera work and editing can make a dramatic difference. Awesome to finally get a glimpse behind the scenes!
Holy shit i can watch this forever
So much details in his video, great work and example of someone taking that extra mile to achieve quality work
This is absolutely incredible. His video are always mind blowing. What a great breakdown, and you asked amazing questions!
This video is so extremely dope. You did an excellent job with the questions and that shouldn’t be ignored. One of the best things is just how amazed you are while hearing Gawx explain everything because it’s the same child-like excitement and awe I feel watching his videos.
Just the video I’ve been searching for! Thank you so much for this detailed breakdown! I love how exited and involved the interviewer was with his questions! This is my 1st video on this channel and just subscribed!
Let’s go! Been waiting for a Gawx filmmaking breakdown!!
Another AMAZING episode. The energy, excitement and pure creativity discussed and admired here is just plain AWESOME 🙌🏽
GAWX is incredible and I loved seeing Jack’s reactions to the explanations/BTS. 😁
Wow, this is so informative. Big fan of Gawx here, and I always had so many questions about his workflow. His video and editing skills are so impressive and it's very useful to know how he achieve some of these effects. Great video!

This is soo inspiring. Am very excited to be notified for this beautiful video.
Wow. I didn't know about this channel, but as many other people I'm an addict to Pomplamoose's studio Shorts, so I was already a fan of Jack. It's really great to see how passionate and genuinely interested into Gawx work he is, and how he literally makes the exact questions that many of us would love to do. And Gawx openly answering them, sharing all that knowledge and staying humble. Great content, thank you for sharing it!
Always appreciated the attention to detail that Gawx has in his videos! They feel like a privilege to watch for free!
The excitement between both of you during this is contagious. So inspired.
Was super excited to watch this. Great interview 👏👏
As a follower of Gawx from Turkey, I can't tell you how happy I am with this video. because gawx is a great source of inspiration for me and I am very happy that he shared his video making process in this way. thank you for this video. 🙏🏻
This is such an insane bts into a creatives process. Thank you both!
God this interview is such a gem. Learned so much from him. What a creative lad
Loved this convo! Pretty inspiring, cheers guys!
This is so awesome!!! I like these series you're doing, so much value !!! , we want a longer one !
Love your channel!
There is so much knowledge in these videos.
Much appreciated 🙏
You ask the best questions! This was so inspiring
Phenomenal episode, I loved every minute of it!
Gawx is all around a genius but the way you interviewed him just hit the spot!
This video is so good. I can feel the enthusiasm coming so authentically from both of you. You should just do a 12 part series of GAWX interviews. We all want it. 😍
I just discovered this channel and it's awesome. You're doing great work; keep it up!
This is sooo sick, gawx is super talented and it’s so nice to see the breakdown of these amazing video, nicely done Jack. I love it, took notes while watching.
Thank you for this interview and introducing me to this young genius.
38 minutes went by too fast. Could watch a 6 hour session of this!! Well done Jack and Gawx!
You can see how excited he is to talk about his work with a person that really understands and appreciates all the small details he's put into it. Such a cool thing to watch. Most of us won't ever be so driven like this young man. ❤
I really love these shot by shot interviews, so valuable for me as I learn how to make videos
That first shot has a very Guy Ritchie feel. Snatch or Lock Stock. Love it cuz I have all these ideas in my head just learning now how to put it on film. Gaux is a beast
Wow this has got to be one of the most inspiring vids I've seen. Seeing the inner workings of such an immaculate process is such a treat! I had a big ol' nerd-ing out grin on my face the entire time, and learned so much. Just discovered this channel, you did an amazing job with this interview. Your genuine enthusiasm & interest really made it great.💕 Literally need to get out my skateboard now.😂
I think that this kind of humble and sincere analysis with the artist himself (huge one, maybe, the most huge young artist in 2020s) brings a lot of faith to beginner artists in themselves.
That was so much fun to watch! Thanks for letting us inside the process 🤙🏾 lots of love from Germany 🐲
This is amazing!! thank you both!!!!
Yea this is a GOAT interview. Golden knowledge right here. Also THANK YOU for asking him so in depth questions. It's like even when you know how somethings made , you still ask the question so the less experienced viewer can figure it out as well. Mad respect for that
This is ALL I NEED thank you so much! This are the best 38 minutes i have spent in my entire life!
Feeling so too❤
love the breakdown and side notes too. Great video!
i love gawx so much thanks for this interview, so niceee to get his perspective
Thank, thank you so much, this helps so much bunch of people, this interview was needed
Thank you Gawx! I’ve been waiting for this exact video
This is great!! I always watch and wonder how the hell he gets these amazing shots and lighting so this is awesome to watch and learn from an amazing artist and content creator!!🔥🔥
Really cool! So awesome to hear the behind the scenes stories of how Gawx makes his masterpieces!
Much love
Thank you soo much for such an informative video with @GawxArt; I have got couple of hesitations about my photography style, their colour correction/grading etc. and I always wonder what his video shooting workflow/process is. Because his videos esp. in his 2nd channel Gawx2 have inspired me so deeply, the colour grading, theme of the videos and the music chooses are like jigsaw puzzle, complementary for each other. These stuffs reminded me that I have got lots stuff that I wanna say by my photos. That is why I am back to retake some photos and put something from myself. Thanks again…
Love watching two super talented creators geeking about all the little details! Thank you Jack for this!
He's incredible. Glad to see him getting more attention. Thanks for sharing.
This is so helpfull OMG, i´ve been following gawx from a lot of tme now and seeing all the ins and outs of his filming is incredible Saludos desde España!!!!
Maaaaaaaaaaaan!!! this interview is insane! Moreee like this and about @Gawxart ❤🔥
Thank you for explaining in the left corner what things are!
great interview! thanks!
man this is so cool! I Love Gawx's work it's so inspiring for me!
I've watched Gawx's videos since almost the beginning and I was always captivated by his way of filming and editing. I don't draw, I don't make videos, but I was amazed by his style from the beginning. It's great to see how he has grown. Congratulations! great vid Jack!
I just loved the way he is so curious and trying to dig into every detail what gawx had used 😌😌 loving this video keep creating stuff and always love gawx
Thank you for these videos - I find them so educational and entertaining. This is inspiring 🙏
Next level stuff! So much effort goes into his videos
What a fantastic interview! Jack has such a good interview style for this video. Hearing about Gawx's little rigs was nostalgic: when I was a kid making home videos in iMovie, I LOVED figuring out how to get cool shots. My working process was very similar to Gawx: go in with some cool ideas, and make it up as I go.
Gawx has got to be the most engaging and most likable person on RUclips! Thanks for this amazing insight into the creator behind the creations we all adore!
absolutely loved this as a fan of gawx and you i loved this. as a begginer and a newbie towards cinematic shooting this reallyl helped me and taught me alot.
Thank you Jack Conte! For making this video possible!! Gawx is one of my favorite filmmakers!
Please do Danny Gevirtz next!
How i missed this channel man! So hypersick channel is this and the creator his detailing top notch Loved it Just Wow!!!! ❤❤
This man is asking spot on questions to our inspiration, Thanks😄
You know, as artists we tend to fixate on the 'right gear' and the 'perfect way to go about this' etc. But the fact that someone like Gawx can make masterpieces with shit that literally is spewed across his house (like the towel as a green screen 34:10) really tells you to just get started and figure it out as it goes.
Love the video, Jack. Absolutely loving your breakdowns.
Thank you Jack for this channel! I love how you are asking the exact questions I want to hear answered relating to gear, process, execution, etc. Hope you can get someone from the music video side of things next. Maybe YCimaging or Jordan Orme or both of them since they are two sides of the same music video coin
