      @mtachjian 5 лет назад +27

      its easy to see what hes doing if you watch frame by frame. Comma and period on your keyboard when the vid is paused. Ive learned so much from his vids. What you will quickly realize is that he has clear vision BEFORE he shoots. His shots appear casual but they are directed and intentional. Always panning into and out of scenes....having the artistic vision to see what are interesting shots to take---DETAILS! as apposed to your typical wide shots of buildings. The thing that Brandon is awesome at (in edits) is maintaining connection between scenes in terms of key elements and pacing. Shapes, colors and movement. There is always a connection between 2 different scenes. Also his use of sound effects to immerse the watcher into the scene is top notch.

    Even if I cannot afford to join your school, your videos alone are enough educative for me to learn editing and camera movement. They say a good work leaves its traces for others to follow. This is the best thing that you tube offers.

    I am a stills photographer but it really is interesting to see both your work and how you approach collecting the material you later work on in your final edits because this is the important bit. Where this is inspiring is that it is no different to doing a "stills shoot" with the intention of producing a self published book or a story for a magazine so, many thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for these behind the scenes Brandon. I know you could make money not showing this stuff and teaching it. But it really makes people want to come back and actually see HOW you make this content. Seeing you film things even for just a few seconds is really helpful in understanding how you got a certain shot. If you had time, could you show us some of the editing you do? Sometimes even if we have great shots, putting it all together is a little confusing also.

    Howdy, Brandon. Longggg time. Love these behind the scenes vids. I was thinking... Maybe it's about time to do a secret little video with the RX100. Don't tell us and make it killer. Maybe a good lesson just to remind people(and myself) it's not about the gear, or the latest and greatest tech. I think that would be fun, eye opening and educational. Thanks for sharing these vids with us.

I am really loving the "film making Process" i watch so many great ones, Peter, Casey, Matti, etc...And now you and what i love about what you are showing here is the way You actually Film. My husband and i both are getting quite addicted to it but what we were always doing wrong when shooting our b roll in 120 (besides absolutely everything we are doing wrong we just started in Jan.) we would go fast when shooting 120fps or even 60fps? I dont know why we thought that. Also we do not have a gimbal so everything is hand held and whoa what a difference!! I need a gimbal, different lens's, nd filters, learn cameras so much more etc, etc....what would be a good starter gimbal with our canon m50? We like the ronin S? Ty and great video!!
