Thanks so much for all your engagement and kind words. Aside from producing these experiences I want to create videos that might be helpful and interesting for the community. Please let me know what you want me to do? Thought starters: - Tutorials - Gear Review - BTS - Vlogs
Really appreciate your nice words, youtube is competitive and I only recently started so any help from new supporters like you who share my videos will help :) And yes I do :) Thank you for your help!
+ivan losito it depends really, generally I try to hit the exposure right on spot, but I yet have to test whether over exposing leads to a better picture. Have you tried it?
HI joey! greetings from Israel! sorry that i didn't saw it before today. amazing job with everything actually, huge well done to you. saw a lot of you tube newyork movies, certainly got into the top 3 for me with this one. Please let me know what editing program you are using and what's the main plugin as well that u use the most please...and thanks again!
you are so inspirational. I love your way of editing. If you don't mind I would love to try your editing style. I understand if not. Keep it up It makes me want to out and shoot.
Cool lego movies my friend, many years ago a friend and i have recreated one of the LOTR scenes with lego stop motion To your question: Definitely get inspired by my style, I watch a lot of YT videos for inspiration, but it is important that you dont just copy but create your own visual language. This will make you stand out!
Means a lot. and ya I wont copy but take little bits from here and there and some of my own to make my style. what I really like about your way of editing is how almost every beat in the song there is a cut.
hey Joey, did you use the pilotfly h2 in the whole movie or just in some parts (in which parts u used the h2) ? .. By the way, great movie, i love it ;)
Thanks Nicolas! I use FCPX, with Shift+B you can break the speed/timer of the clip and accelerate/decelerate. It then allows you also to determine how fast the speed ramps up/down. Hope this helps!
+Joey Helms Thanks for the reply. You really got a talent, I got to admit! I'm currently thinking about selling my a7s in order to get the mark ii. I'm using the rokinon 35mm cine lenses (photo version) and I just cant shoot handheld. Footage is so so shaky...As I saw that you use these lenses as well, could you ensure me that theres no optical difference between the cinelens and the photolens. The Cine version just seem to have a gear-wheel instead of a focus ring which I imagine to be kind of weird to focus with. (because it was actually designed to be used with a follow focus, which I will never use) So I decided to buy the same model in the 'photo' version. And you probably use the 14mm for wide angle shots? And then you switch to apsc when u need to get some close ups with the 35mm? Anyways, I hope that the a7sii will solve my problem? I mean the 5 AXIS just seem to be soooo good. And the a7s mark ii can shoot 120fps in 1080p cant it? Sorry for the huge amount of questions, you got my subscription for sure and I'm looking forward for new videos! I'd love to see how you edit and especially how you grade in post! x Elijah
Hey Elijah, Let me answer you Qs :) • Yes I am using the rokinon cine lenses - the reason i went for cine was not the gear-wheel but because of it's unstepped aperture ring so you can smoothly change the aperture if you go from the outside inside for example. the picture qual is the same • Yep, 14mm for wide angle but since I am shooting 4K I am not cropping in. The RII actually is cropped if you shoot more close up stuff. My work is more wide usually hence the FF sensor of SII absolutely rocks! • I also have a 24-70MM Tamron which is kind of an always on for street shots, so you can get very close. • The stabiliser is an absolute life saver and would make it worth switching to the SII! On top the 120FPS is certainly fun I have used it quiet a bit for my videos :) In case you buy it feel free to use the affiliate link in the description this way I get a little bounty from Amazon, doesn't cost you any more :) • I am definitely planning doing some How To videos :) Joey
Hey Chong, thanks so much!!! I shot in PP8 gammut set to cine 4. Then I applied either Impulz Fuji 400 LUTs or a DELUTS LUT. And then some massaging and e voila! Hope this helps :)
What do you do for sounds? Do you add in fake sounds from the web or are all sounds the actual sounds you're recording there ? Would I need another mic or can I use the sound I get from the camera?
+t spunk I use both, sound recorded on the scene either with the rode video mic pro, an external audio recorder, or the internal mic (depends really on what quality you need and what kind of sound you record) and then I also use pre recorded stock sounds like whoosh effects etc
+Avalon Films UK thanks man, I really don't do anything to remove distortion. In this video many shots taken with the 14 mm were in crop mode due to the frame rate anyways
Thanks bud, yeah the slow mo was actually shot in 1080p @ 120fps. However the compression is borderline terrible if you match it against the standard 4K footage so in future I am more inclined to shot in 60fps & 1080p with better compression!
@francisco I honestly think 60fps @ 50m is better compression. 120fps videos always look a little too compressed for me and suffers a fair bit more in low light.
Yeah Ikron is right I have the same perception. The 120 fps footage is a) noisier and b) less sharp and c) the dynamic range suffers more due to the compression. I was told it is mainly related to the lower bit rate per frame (sharpness, DR) and the cropped sensor (light sensitivity) when shooting 120.
+WanderHack hey for vlogging, due to its tiltable screen, I would go for the GH5.... Or wait what Sony is releasing this year ;) a7s III or a9 may kill the GH5 if Sony keeps on the trajectory they are on and solve their overheating issues
Could anyone help me with Rokinon 14mm 3.1 Cine Lens ? I saw there is many version of this lens for Canon in B&H, could any point me to the right direction ? because I could only buy from B&H not Amazon,
I got Canon 7D, but I'm going to get A7Rii next week with Metabones adapter, so the Canon version could be use for both ? Anyway could you explain what is the DS version of Rokinon ? Thanks buddy for your input
+Kang Salvatore yes i would get the EF then... there has been update last year or so. the main change to the cinelenses of that series was that the focus and aperture rings are all at the position when on the body so you don't have to move the follow focus when changing lenses...
Joey Helms this www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1078644-REG/rokinon_ds14m_c_ds_14mm_t3_1_cine.html is the same one as yours ? I saw there are many version and I don't know which one is right. Some are cheaper
OMG... this might be the best video I've ever watched, everything about it is unreal, thank you for this... Just Wow
Thanks a ton :( Happy to hear that you like it!

One question: what do you make, that when you slow it up and down it looks smooth?
+Tim Schilling thanks Tim! I use FCPX and with shift + B you can split the speed of a track and change the pace with smooth transitions
Joey Helms you're awesome! thx
+Tim Schilling thanks mate
Joey Helms one last thing, how long did this work take to to make?
editing? filming?
+Tim Schilling filming, one weekend, editing about 15 hrs
Amazing editing. Loved it.
Thanks so much : )
hey mate, epic video! love the grading, might you tell which lut you use?
greets from italy
Thanks Lukas! A mix of M31 and IMPULZ luts
cheers mate!
Great work, i love it !!! I know you use pp8 cine 4 and i have a question: Do you overexpose ?
+ivan losito it depends really, generally I try to hit the exposure right on spot, but I yet have to test whether over exposing leads to a better picture. Have you tried it?
HI joey! greetings from Israel! sorry that i didn't saw it before today. amazing job with everything actually, huge well done to you. saw a lot of you tube newyork movies, certainly got into the top 3 for me with this one. Please let me know what editing program you are using and what's the main plugin as well that u use the most please...and thanks again!
+Oded Rozenhaft thanks a ton oded! I am using final cut Pro with the color finale plugin for grading. Hope that helps :)
Joey Helms so actually everything is done by final cut pro? That’s pretty amazing, you’ve helped a lot.. any more recommendations?
+Oded Rozenhaft yes sir! Amazing program! Just keep creating and trying!
Great video, love the grade. What did you use as your main editing program?
Thanks!
+Roberto Rivera thanks man, I am using FCPX
Good to know, I'm on premiere right now and these speed ramping effects seem to be a bit easier to do in fcp, gonna have to play with it more
you are so inspirational. I love your way of editing. If you don't mind I would love to try your editing style. I understand if not. Keep it up It makes me want to out and shoot.
Cool lego movies my friend, many years ago a friend and i have recreated one of the LOTR scenes with lego stop motion

+LP3 Films thanks a ton! Yeah editing to the beat...Kinda dig that, sometimes too much
Stunning!!!!
Cheers!!!
hey Joey, did you use the pilotfly h2 in the whole movie or just in some parts (in which parts u used the h2) ?
.. By the way, great movie, i love it ;)
+Christian -Ses thanks so much, used it pretty much in 90% of the shots.. all of helicopter, marathon and in the train station were shot with the H2
nice video man....greets from Austria
+Clemsi Stu Thanks :) greetings back
Again amazing work. Music, slomo... Love it.
Thank you so much! :) Would be amazing if you share it through social media and help my channel grow :)
Awesome video man! Happy holidays from San Francisco! What editing softwares do you use?
Happy holidays from Chicago! I am using FCPX!
This is pure Art Joey 👏🏻👍🏻🔝
Thank you so much :)
loved it! well done!
+Nondas Sapidis thanks :)
Very smooooth :) Great video!
Thanks a ton :)
This video is soooo impressive 🙏🏻
+Tech Nick thanks so much!!!!
Wonderful style and work. How do you remap speed (like at 1:24)?
Congrats!
Thanks Nicolas! I use FCPX, with Shift+B you can break the speed/timer of the clip and accelerate/decelerate. It then allows you also to determine how fast the speed ramps up/down. Hope this helps!
awesome style, really impressive!
+NexusEdits thanks buddy
Great great work. Was this all shot in 120fps? There is alot of velocity, i can feel it
+ElijahONE thanks so much. Only the slow mo was shot in 120fps the rest in 23.98fps ;)

Thank you
again, awesome. Subbed!
Wow , love the footage and can i know some colour grading details ? are you using luts or what ? Subscribe you !!!!
Hey Chong, thanks so much!!! I shot in PP8 gammut set to cine 4. Then I applied either Impulz Fuji 400 LUTs or a DELUTS LUT. And then some massaging and e voila! Hope this helps :)
thanks you , love the edit style ~~
+Chong Jia Chin thank you :) please share it around the world :) it will help my channel a great deal
Hi, love ur videos! What lens you mostly use?
+Priscilla Citra thanks Priscilla :) hope I won a new sub! Mostly I am using the rokinon 35mm 1.4 or the tamron 24-70mm 2.8
Of course! Sub already. Thank you for replying :)
checked out your channel, you have some impressive camera work! really creative! :)
Thank you Joey! Haha, btw do you use an adapter for the Tamron? Which one?
+Priscilla Citra I use the viziolex be throttle adapter during the day and the metabones at night
Added to some playlists!
+Epic Drone Videos thank you so much :)
What do you do for sounds? Do you add in fake sounds from the web or are all sounds the actual sounds you're recording there ? Would I need another mic or can I use the sound I get from the camera?

how do you do it? awesome

+juan david jacobo preciado thanks Juan! Unamusing final cut Pro X :)
Hey great videos. How do you remove the barrel distortion on your 14mm Rokinon?
+Avalon Films UK thanks man, I really don't do anything to remove distortion. In this video many shots taken with the 14 mm were in crop mode due to the frame rate anyways
Thanks for your response. I ended up buying the 24mm cine Rokinon to use on full-frame with Glidecam shots.
nice, looking forward to some shots!
Maybe after a few months practise I will send you a link.
did you had any problems during the helicoter flight with the horizon of the gimbal? any rolling problems??
Yes, it was going nuts. Definitely something to watch out for
Awesome work !
+Wojtek Krolikowski Thanks :)
grossartiger clip. du steckst mächtig viel arbeit in deine videos. hut ab! arbeitest du ab und zu auch nochmal in deutschland?
+Thorsten Schröder lieben Dank! Dauert echt schon ne Weile. Nur wenn ich Freunde und Familie einmal im Jahr besuche ;)
Joey Helms warte... du sprichst deutsch? 👍🏻
+Tech Nick yup... Und Latein
Joey Helms haha dann sprechen wir ja genau die selben Sprachen 👋🏼
+Tech Nick ha, mein Latein ist aber so eingeäschert wie die Bewohner von Pompeii
This whole sound FX pack - Where did you get it from? :)
+RhymeZ all over the place, most of the stuff was in fcpx already
make a pack please! :D
Hey, nice video! I'm assuming not everything was shot in 4k. There are slow mo'd stuff so you must have shot in 60/50p also right?
Thanks bud, yeah the slow mo was actually shot in 1080p @ 120fps. However the compression is borderline terrible if you match it against the standard 4K footage so in future I am more inclined to shot in 60fps & 1080p with better compression!
But in 60fps is 50M.... Do you think is better than 120fps@100M ?
@francisco I honestly think 60fps @ 50m is better compression. 120fps videos always look a little too compressed for me and suffers a fair bit more in low light.
I see, thanks a lot. Do you use any plugin for un-noise? I really love your shots :)
Yeah Ikron is right I have the same perception. The 120 fps footage is a) noisier and b) less sharp and c) the dynamic range suffers more due to the compression. I was told it is mainly related to the lower bit rate per frame (sharpness, DR) and the cropped sensor (light sensitivity) when shooting 120.
Hey would u recommend Sony a7s Ii or the soon to be released Panasonic gh5 for vlogging?
+WanderHack hey for vlogging, due to its tiltable screen, I would go for the GH5.... Or wait what Sony is releasing this year ;) a7s III or a9 may kill the GH5 if Sony keeps on the trajectory they are on and solve their overheating issues
ich war letzte Woche in New York und will sofort zurück :) auch wenn Helicopter nichts für mich sind :D schön gemacht!
+La Pinoir lieben Dank! Tolle Stadt aber probier Mal Chicago. Wird dich umhauen ;)

MEN I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Thanks a ton Carlo, did you check out my first vlog?
Joey Helms yes love it!
Whats the song called
Could anyone help me with Rokinon 14mm 3.1 Cine Lens ? I saw there is many version of this lens for Canon in B&H, could any point me to the right direction ? because I could only buy from B&H not Amazon,
+Kang Salvatore what camera do you have?
I got Canon 7D, but I'm going to get A7Rii next week with Metabones adapter, so the Canon version could be use for both ? Anyway could you explain what is the DS version of Rokinon ?
Thanks buddy for your input
+Kang Salvatore yes i would get the EF then... there has been update last year or so. the main change to the cinelenses of that series was that the focus and aperture rings are all at the position when on the body so you don't have to move the follow focus when changing lenses...
Joey Helms this www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1078644-REG/rokinon_ds14m_c_ds_14mm_t3_1_cine.html is the same one as yours ? I saw there are many version and I don't know which one is right. Some are cheaper
+Kang Salvatore get the cheaper one of you don't worry about the rings. But you wanna get the video/come version ;) unclicked aperture
The song its called meet me
NYC the richest city in the world the city that doesnt sleep city of dreams greatest city in the world😍😍😍😍
