    Great tips for musical choices.... We used a super slow song to one of our videos and even we don’t care for that video as much. Now, we always use fast-paced, groove-oriented music for our videos. We learned the hard way how important matching the music to the mood convey the desired effect. Thanks for offering some awesome tips! 📷😎⭐️

  • @AwakenedVibration
    @AwakenedVibration Год назад

    When a youtuber claims how they got rich from x,y,z, and "you can to," Well, it's easy to assess their dress, backdrop, and over space to observe, they're still working on making that wealth with more subscribers and viewers. :) So, you are so right. Mindful of what the audience is viewing in the video is paramount. As a designer, I can look at the interior structure and read apartment, flat, trailer, cheap, high end, luxury, hotel, etc. The space gives it away.

  • @Jahnnalee
    @Jahnnalee 7 лет назад +7

    This video is great! I love how you talk about static and how motion is so important. When I do my short films, with a crew, I always make sure there's motion but when I do my RUclips videos I'm a one person show & crew. Do you have any cool transitions, possibly in editing, for a one person show & crew? I'd love to add motion and/or creative effects but I lock my camera down since I'm also acting all the characters. Would be great to visually add something more to my video scenes if it's possible with not moving the camera 🎥☺️🐶

    • @moreapropos
      @moreapropos 7 лет назад +1

      He seems to be saying to add motion just to add motion. You should move the camera when it makes sense and adds to the emotion. There is nothing wrong with locked or static shots. Look at your favorite films. Some of the most intense scenes in cinema are locked shots.

    • @Jahnnalee
      @Jahnnalee 7 лет назад

      Flying High I agree with you one hundred percent, motion needs to have a reason; which, I always do in my short films/web series and I use a lot of static shots because sometimes stillness is a wonderful thing when used in the right clips. I’m not wondering when to use motion but if there’s a way or a technique/effect I can add motion, when needed, even though I’m a one person show and crew. I lock the camera in place then I’m the actor in front of the camera, so I won’t be able to move the camera when I’m in the frame. I was hoping there might be some realistic effects out there that can make it look as if I had a cameraperson onset with me.

    • @videoedit69
      @videoedit69 6 лет назад

      Everything you do in production and post production, should be done for a reason. Never do this or that just to have this or that in your show.

    • @pault008
      @pault008 5 лет назад

      Why Wait Productions - Jahnnalee how about shooting in 4K so you can do various Ken Burns effects in post - then output to HD so quality is retained.

    @calabfranklin8322 5 лет назад +1

    Love the video, but for me I don't have a lot of time to set up shots because I am a video producer for the U.S. Army and i have to shoot uncontrolled action, such as someone building something, or working on equipment or firing weapons, so if I miss something I just loose a sequence for the story. It would be amazing and super helpful if you could make a video that covers shooting BROLL for uncontrolled action!

    • @BeforeBlack
      @BeforeBlack 7 лет назад +1

      Koby Just, thank you very much man :) in fact its usually the case but I dont stick with that genre always, trying to keep up diversaty. therefore there are rock n roll, rock, ambient etc. In fact you can make request about the genre of the next song if you like :)

    • @ItsByko
      @ItsByko 7 лет назад +1

      I am really liking the lo-fi genre as of recent in my videos. A artist on Spotify /w the name Moow is really catching my eye recently.
      I don't have many requests for genres because I listen to a lot of music, just keep making content. Don't stop, for the sake of your what seems to be passion.

    I like how you explain things, your very fluid and clear with what you say! Thanks for a great video! I’m starting on RUclips so this is big help

    There’s so much that goes into making a video, one does not simply shoot a video. Sometimes I get super frustrated when it takes over an hour setting up lights and angles and all that...trying to be more patient and not let that get to me so that when I shoot the actual video I can be fresh and not stressed....

    Peter, could you please tell how do you make your videos so stable and smooth - do you have any kind of gimbal or stabilization?
