Japan has a special place in my heart, I consider it my true home. Alas I am no longer there but this video takes me gently back to a people and a nation in full feeling and emotion. I might have had wet eyes. This is technically superb, but really it is the combination of visuals and sound that make it special. Thank you.
@@juliuschurafilms Let me know when you get it in! My 45 seems a bit sharper than my 65 but I think they gave me an open box they were using as a demo as the Blazar office is down the street from me in LA, so I think maybe it was pre shimmed perfectly.
Absolutely stellar work. You perfectly captured the vibe. I've been to Japan numerous times and I felt as though I was there again while watching your short. Kudos.
I'm a Japanese who loves Ryuichi Sakamoto and I use FX3 just like you. But you have a completely different perspective than me. The city I know looks like a whole other world to me. Amazing!!
Stunning work! I was floored at how well color graded and composed every single shot was and the pacing was phenomenal to boot! Never stop making art, this stood out head and shoulder above many of the travel films I have seen especially with the same piece of kit. Cheers!
wow Julius. i've been to a lot of these places and feel super nostalgic rn. you have a great eye for the everyday scenes. the colors mixed with the music and sounds from the moments, so well done.
The best footage I have seen with these lenses, the cinematography is so beautiful. I remember meeting the musician (4:08) in the streets of Kyoto in 2018.
This video really evoked so much nostalgia from my past trips to Japan. Really makes me want to go back. Probably my favourite Japan Travel video I've come across on RUclips, the cinematography and colouring as well as the audio is really on point.
Amazing work that shows just how far digital cinematography has come. Startlingly well-balanced rendering of light that captures both bright highlights and dark shadows in a way looks natural. The compositions look like they actually belong in a wide frame. For someone who is only twenty years old, you're making a great start! Stunning!
@@juliuschurafilms Hi Julius, I really like your composition and everything, so inspiring! I have a question, if you were me, a starter!, would you again start with Tamron or you would go with Blazar Remus, a cinematic prime lens? I know it's a stupid question, but I am a starter and quality really maters more for me. a 50mm pushes you to be more creative because of it limitation but instead is giving you better quality, I highly appreciate your thoughts!
@ Tamron 28-75 was a fantastic starter lens. The blazar is less clinical and more vintage looking so it serves as a niche artistic look. I’d recommend the Tamron because it’s sharp and affordable with a useful focal length range! Good luck!
@@juliuschurafilms I am thinking to put the extra 500$ to get less clinical look, but in terms of the fact that I do not have the versatility of the Tamron and I have only one focal length, what's your thoughts for me as an starter? I personally feel I can find ways to work around it, but your thought would ne highly appreciate it, because you got so much experience so far!
@@OrganicaShadows mmmm if ur confident and you want the look of anamorphic right away sure. But also know you likely have to buy an adapter too. I still would recommend a variable focal length spherical lens
Love it! Simple shots ( no fancy transitions or camera movements ) good framing, nice color .... everything super nice! Enjoyed it a lot! Japan is on my list! Thanks so much!
Hey bro, as a fellow new cinematographer, I wanted to say that your cinematographer instincts are absolutely on point. Keep travelling and looking for frames in the wild, and your evolution will be amazing! Best of luck, I will keep an eye on the channel for sure!
@@stj8088 haha thank you! I was worried they would be bad for 30-40k steps a day but they were honestly perfect and I never had foot pain. Crazy you noticed the shoes 😭
Gorgeous film! I think RUclips knew I have watched almost every video in existence on Ryuichi Sakamoto and his music and have been researching the Sony FX3...and the algorithm did not disappoint. Thanks for this! The music and visuals really work so well together and your editing is magnificent. Have always wanted to go to Japan, but this took me there.
Lovely video. 02:23 - I ate at this place (Gifuya 岐阜屋) many times when I was living in Tokyo. It was opened 24hrs, had great prices and was delicious. Thanks for the memory!
I came because I saw your comment on my video but damn this is nice! These shots are amazing! I was surprised to see that we both got the shot at the bridge near akihabara with the red trains. Great video~
Your channel is amazing! You have such a great talent! It's absolutely unbelievable how well you've captured the feeling of being in those cities ♥ Wishing you lots of success, my guy!
INCREDIBLE!

Cam what's that 33mm lookin like? I got the 45 and the 65 and fiending for something wider!
