Hi Justin. You hit the nail on the head several times...make the client happy, keep things simple, work on lighting. You do those things you’ll go a long way. It’ll be fun to watch your progression. Love your videos! Keep it up...please.
Thanks man! Appreciate that!
Very nice tactics and information for my step into komodo! Thank you so much!
this is some of the best information I have ever gotten from youtube ... bravo
proud of you bro! you are making incredible strides, props to you!
Thank you! 🙏🏼🙌🏼
I just love your down to earth videos...
Well done, Justin. Very informative. Thank you!
Just got to love your honesty an point of view in the way you do things! Bless up!!!
Appreciated 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Thanks for sharing!!!!
Great video
Hey my friend. Excellent video. Thanks for all the advices. You're great.
Thanks!
Hey Justin, awesome video. Does the BM monitor allow access to Komodo menu? I saw where you did a video on the Portkeys BM5 and that offered it. Which do you prefer the BM5 or the Black Magic assist?
Man I need to get that Camera but that’s a good chunk of change.
what if the battery on the monitor dies . before i can take the sdi out ?
Very Good!!!
Awesome video!
Man that bad review has been keeping me away from that zip box pro, but you spit the truth my man, gotta get that nice piece of gear!
🤟🏼
what codec do you use on blackmagic video assist7 12g for sdi monitoring?
Good video, man! Thanks! And I agree with the "impress instagram" thing... If you do your job right and get some cool shots, that's the important stuff! :)
🙏🏼🙌🏼🦾
good shit my boy...................
i'm looking for a BP plate to adapt my NP-F batteries!
Well I finally got my tilta v-mount and now this... but, "luckily" I bought an ST while I wait for my black version and I decided not to put the tilta on my ST. So then, I'm off to the Wooden Camera site, brb lol. Justin thanks for the practical, honest and simple info and experience.
🤣🤣💯🙏🏼
@@JustinPhillip for real, that's just 175 bucks?? So check it out, I'll use the tilta v mount on the black (assuming I ever get it) and pop the Wooden Camera on the ST. And I got 2 nanos with my tilta bundle. The stoke is real.
@@imnotrandy6984 not sure about that price, the wooden camera battery slide was $400, but maybe theres a deal goin on right now?
@@JustinPhillip lol no I had it wrong, but I'm ordering it anyway. I already have the nanos
Awesome Video! I am getting a commercial gig from a company and I finally made up my mind to get my hands on Komodo!! I love how you rigged your RED!
What do you use to attach your phone as your Monitor?

Hi, how does the FSB 6 head hold with a fully rigged komodo and long lenses.
absolutely fine, best tripod head i ever owned
What version of the Schneider ND filters are best ? Rhodium full spectrum or the regular ? What's the difference ?
Neither of those. Firecrest are the standard for best IR filtration, IMO. Their new super slim filters are the bees knees: bhpho.to/3JXxYQX
* and the fact that they are so slim, if you needed to go really on the ND, you can stack two of them in one tray because of their new superslim design. and it brings the cost WAY down as well.
@@JustinPhillip can I use those firecrests with Hollywood black magic mist filters ?
@@JustinPhillip will they work with bright tangerine misfit atom? And what do you mean by firecrest is standard ?
@@creativegreats6924 yes they work. Industry Standard. Just a term. But pretty spot on. Most high level DPs have their choice. and the top preferred ones are usually Firecrest.
@@creativegreats6924 of course
Thanks, Justin! Could you link us to the monitor cable? I'm not seeing it. I have the Alvin's mini BNC and it is just a pain to actually connect.
It’s in here: kit.co/jpOnFilm/cable-mgmt
@@JustinPhillip Thank you, Justin!
Hey justin, can you please mention the tool your using in order to mount the monitor on the Red's outrigger? i bought the production kit and im figuring out how ill be able to mount my monitor on it!
thanks
I use this one, because it has a rosette on the end for my Tilta adjustable top handle: amzn.to/34vbKme
But this NATO rail works too: amzn.to/2Wx2f1r
Since I have canon speed booster on my komodo what is the best ways to minimize ghosting? Also what type of shots should I avoid (example : avoid shooting with sun as backround etc) ?
That's a common issue with speedboosters and even some dummy adapters. I would recommend getting a good lightweight mattebox with top flag, this Misfit atom is an excellent choice: bhpho.to/3stPXZ1
@@JustinPhillip with the misfit which filter should I put right in front of the lens first the black magic pro mist or the firecrest ND ? Or does it matter ?
generally you want your diffusion closer to the lens
@@JustinPhillip diffusion as in ND or the mist filter ?
@@creativegreats6924 diffusion would be the mist filter
This red looks sick. What’s the main advantage vs the bmpcc for you?
Working on that video. Stay tuned!
that battery back plate, I saw that in CVP's Komodo video, it is a good accessory. bro you have a good sense!
I would like to know if you can control your settings ( like iso, aperture, shutter angle) in camera via external monitor. If not, what external monitor on the market supports this function. Thanks!
The smallHD touch is the only one i know of. Perhaps PortKeys has something in the works as well
That is really small. Then so would my wallet be after I buy it. But in all seriousness..Red Cinema camera for $6000 is really freaking awesome.
Yeeeeahhhh BUDDY!
Hey Justin! Good stuff. Question for you. I just purchased the Red Komodo and wonder what you think is a better accessory to buy if budgeting. The Red handle that has record button or the wooden camera v mount adapter? I am thinking of getting one and then go with a cheaper option for the other. Just wanted your opinion if you could only buy one. Thank!
get the battery slide!
@@JustinPhillip Thanks man! Also, keep up the good work. Just found your channel and digging it!
@@Tom_Nagel Awesome! thanks!
Crane 3s pro can hold Komodo with everything attached 🙏🏻
Hi there, what the small rig plate for the Manfrotto plate? Thanks
Anything you're looking for from this video, should be in this kit: kit.co/jpOnFilm/aks-camera-accessories
does the blackmagic monitor cross convert hdmi and sdi signals? If you plug in a HDMI in, is there a signal from the SDI out?
yes
hey Justin.. I just got my Komodo and I am still trying to figure it out . I am new to RED Ecosystem. I want to ask you how can I get the guide lines for rule of thirds in Red Komodo. I searched everywhere and could not find it. Could you please let me know if you know it.
have to have a monitor that does it
@@JustinPhillip got it. hey thinking to get the Blackmagic 12g hdr 5 inch monitor. Do you still recommend it ? P.s . Also watched your short film “Daring” and I love it .
@@vaikuntafilms4511 Thank you! Yes i love that monitor, however now i have the 7” version and i have it for my 1st AC. On camera i use the PortKeys BM5-WR. Still get proxies on the video assist wirelessly!
Hey Justin, just looking at the Black Magic monitor and the website say you get support for recording up to 2160p60. Does that affect your filming in 6K at all? Or is that just strictly its recording limit for things like creating proxies?
Komodo can output a 4K DCI signal up to 24fps. HDR converts that signal into ProRes. No problems here
Justin Phillip okay perfect thanks!
Thanks so much for the great content Justin! Quick question. How do you output 4K SDI from the Komodo to the 5" Video Assist? 1080p and 2K DCI work for me, but when I switch over to UHD or 4KDCI, the monitor shows no signal and black. I am using a 12G SDI Canare cable.
hmm...maybe the frame rates or Hrz needs to be adjusted. Also, do u have latest FW on both?
@@JustinPhillip Thanks! Just tried changing the frame rates and updated to the latest firmware for both... but no dice. I may have to try a different cable?
The ProGrade unapproved media warning happened with me as well. But only with my 1TB one. The 512GB one got no warning. Asked ProGrade and they said they submitted it for Red Approval and that the 1TB should be included in next Komodo firmware update. Maybe it’s the same with the 256GB?
hmmm maybe! Good tip! 🙌🏼
What accessories are safe to power with P or D tap? I've read that monitors aren't safe to power with it. Is that true?
Definitely not true. Check out another video i did on proper SDI workflow
@@JustinPhillip awesome! Thanks Justin! Always wondered what you could really use them for if they weren’t truly safe. Am I okay to be powering my monitor and camera off the same v mount battery, or should I be powering those separately?
@@adamkoepke1366 best bet is to be using something with surge protection, like the wooden camera battery slide, its the only thing i've ever used with it, because it allows for hotswapping, so there is always an onboard camera battery
@@JustinPhillip gotcha. That’ll definitely be a future purchase. Thanks for your help! May reach out in the future with further questions if that’s alright?
@@JustinPhillip gotcha. That’ll definitely be a future purchase. Thanks for your help! May reach out in the future with further questions if that’s alright?
When did The battery mount plate become Red approved? I just checked their website and Red does not list the wooden camera Vmount plate as Red approved. Can your V mount batteries communicate with the camera? Like show battery percentage?
yes they do. And they have always been approved. Wooden Camera were the first ones to have anything approved for the Komodo
@@JustinPhillip so you can read battery percentage on your Komodo using the wooden camera v mount?
@@TheBoardMovie No it does not. Because the wooden camera battery slide connects via the Komodo's DC Port, therefore the camera just interprets it as being plugged into AC power. But, i dont see the need for battery percentage when using a V mount, because most V mount batteries have an LED status indicator on the battery themselves, and if you're worried about the camera dying, that's the whole point of this video, keep a canon battery on board, and you will always have continous power.
So in a previous video you said to power everything before connecting sdi. Can you confirm which one is correct?
Its always been the same. Power ON camera + accessories then plug in SDI. When powering down, pull SDI first
What is the name of that QR system on your rods?
stack this on top of any 15mm rod baseplate you like: amzn.to/3lQFeRk
So ridiculous. This rig looks like a DSLR contraption from 2010. I’m shocked there isn’t a Zoom H4n attached on top of it. But wait - there’s Mixpre underneath, lol !
It’s just different configurations. But wait- where’s yours?!
I stopped buying tilta cage/rigging just because of the dumb proprietary stuff they put in their gear to force you to buy more into their ecoystems. Obviously their follow focus stuff is top notch and plenty of things that they make that’s great, but I avoid cages, handles, etc
4K proxies is probably the dumbest thing I’ve heard all month.
