Make MORE EPIC Product Commercials - Go Wide!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июл 2021
- Try this to make your product commercials more epic - go wide! By going wide with a lens such as the 16-35mm, you will have to get closer to the product which will cause the item being shot to distort from its true shape, but it will make it look more dominating and epic.
Usually I use a 100mm for most of my product shoots. This time I challenged myself to shoot a commercial with a wide lens. This created the awesome, low angle which makes the product look more important. Definitely a tip to try for your next video creations.
We all think that you need high end gear, kit that costs thousands. Well you don't. This video, along with the playlist I have created on how to shoot and edit product commercials proves that even on a budget, even when just shooting from kitchen or living room, you too can create an epic product commercial at home.
Showing how you can shoot product commercials with a look into behind the scenes will hopefully inspire you to get your camera out and start shooting.
If you are keen to use similar equipment to what I have shown, all my gear is listed below.

*I'M BACK!* _Booooom!_ Let me know what lens you find is your favourite for shooting product commercials or b-roll...
I too use the Canon 100mm L-Series for all my Food and Product shots...that lens is JUST MONEY!!!
@@ThruVisualMedia And it's one of the more affordable primes. It certainly has paid for itself over and over with all the client work it's shot.
@Chris R nice!!!
I only have an 18-135mm kit lens and a 100-400. The last one I can't really use for product videography
@@Ben-st5si your 18-135mm could work well. Especially as you don’t need to worry about it not being a ‘fast’ lens. For best focus results on product shots you’d want to be shooting at f8 and higher anyhow
You are the best I have ever came across on RUclips in teems of doing commercials
Wow! Thank you. I need to get back in action on here!
Wheeey he's back 😃
About time hey?!
omg too good!! plz make more tutorials...but different products like..underwear or camera cases/bags. thanks
The sound design really gives great texture to this video. Really nice
Thank you. Really appreciate you recognising this as it took me way longer to add it all then a lot of people probably realise
DAMNNN ...This Channel is Just Dynamite and diamond i can just become rich by sharing this channel to other creators!
Wow, thanks! Feel free to share it however you like. Just give me 10% of your fortune in the future 😂
James. This is so so good. Your style of storytelling is absolutely incredible! Your channel will blow up soon. Keep it up man!
Thanks so much. Really appreciate the kind words 😊
just found your channel and i am hooked ..just watched 7 th video on a row..great content brother
As always, amazing video! You deserve multiple million followers. Would love to see a breakdown of all the shots as well as the edit
Thank you. I could do a breakdown video if that’s what people want to see?
@@JamesKellyStudio yes please
Mind blowing man. Wish you massive growth on RUclips.
Thank you so much. Really appreciate it 👍
Just got a 90mm macro and 20mm 1.8 for my A7III, cant wait to try both
That'll be an amazing combo!
@@JamesKellyStudio thanks! Looking forward to it haha
Good to see you back bro!
Seriously, how does your channel not have more subscribers
Thank you, yeah it’d be nice but I can’t complain. Been out of action for 3 months! Let’s do what I can achieve for the rest of the year. Onto the next video today. No rest this time 👍
@@JamesKellyStudio looking forward to the next one!
that was class, mate!!
Cheers buddy 👌
Serious skills man. 👏
Thank you 😊
This was amazing. I’ve been feeling like I NEED a macro lens, but so cool to see you using other lenses, thanks!
I actually JUST got one of those rotating round things in the mail today! Super pumped!
I really learn a lot from your videos! Thanks man!
Amazing work on this!
Great work man keep going 👏🏻
love the vids bro! keep em coming! i just bought a lazy suzy to use for some beer video i need to make for work. will def use your tips on that mate!
I think the storyboards are awesome. Video was great and original. You have talent, can’t wait for what’s next!
Thank you so much!
Am loving this🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so muchhh🙏🙏🙏
Thank you 🙏 😊
Best time to see it before sleeping.. know I can't sleep any more 😂💔
Haha 😂
Always amazing James! 👏 Thanks for posting this. I always learn things from these videos
Thanks Matt. Glad they help out 👍
I think this is one of your best ads.. and your storyboards are insane! Well done ☺️
Thanks so much. It was a good challenge which pushed me away from my comfort zone
Back with a bang 🤩 wow James you are so talented its mad 😍
Thank you 🙏
Great to see you back James! Brilliant video, now I'm going to give it a try 😜.
Good to be back
Love it! I think the dynamic music was perfect, but I like going over the top.
Appreciate it. Thank you 🙏
Nailed it
Thank you 🙏
This was FIRE!!!!! Now I gotta try and knock out this skincare product video. Thanks for the inspiration brotha
Subbed 🤝
Dude this is great video!
Glad you liked it!
This is awesome James! 🤓
Love it!
Cheers Nick. Use these tips to get some cool gear stick shots 😆
Everything you create is epic, even the story boards themselves. Killing it as always James 🙌🏼
Thanks so much. You think this storyboard was good, you just wait for an upcoming video! Went completely overboard on the storyboard just to impress the client
@@JamesKellyStudio Hell yeah, that is awesome, looking forward to checking it out!
Wow! Cool! I like your channel bro!
Bad Assshhh - Love it, Excellent Spec Ad...I wish I story boards looked as nice as yours...mine are all stick figures...LOLzzz
Hey if it gets the job done, no problem with stick men. It’s all about getting that first spark of an idea down
Good stuff, James. Inspiring.
Thank you 😊
🔥🔥🔥👏🏼
Thank you
Yes James! Love this stonking video. Broll is something I need to add to my vids. Need to take a leaf out of your book sir.
Thanks Liam, glad you liked it 😊
I'm not gonna lie really nice one mate👍.... I like how you do your storyboard on point
Yeah that came out well. Wasn’t sure if my lens would be able to pull off the vision but pretty close
Great video man! Loved the concept of trying something new. The only thing that left me upset is show much better you are at drawing than me hahaha my storyboards look like a 3 year old picking up a pen for the first time hahah! Great work
I doubt your drawings are that bad! Plus it doesn't really matter so long as it helps you get the shots. Maybe I'll do a video specifically on how I draw? Never thought I'd become an art channel 😂
@@JamesKellyStudio Yeah bro i think a drawing vid would be cool!
Yoo dude! So cool!
Thanks so much 👍
I wish you used a slow mo when you were spraying that. Anyway, different position and angles look impressive. Great job!
Thanks a lot. Yeah I was tempted to do the spray in slow motion but as the ad was trying to be fast, impactful, and trying to limit myself to just 15 seconds, it probably would have eaten too much of the time and slowed down the pace of the edit. Always love a bit of slow mo though!
LETS GO
Awesome work man! Do I sense the new Daniel Schiffer?
Haha I doubt I’ll ever be as successful
Subscribed!!! You got skills James, from storytelling to presentation. Thanks for this I was looking for an angle like this. My product is in a much smaller bottle, but I give it a go. Since our bottle is half the size of yours what focal length do you suggest, or does it matter?
Siiiiiiccckkk!
How did you do that shine on the can at the end? I just found your channel and you're killing it!
Thanks so much! It was a simple photoshop layer of the final can on top of the main can footage, but the photoshop layer had the lettering punched out. This then allowed me to sandwich in between the two layers a white head which I just key framed left to right. Hope that helps?
@@JamesKellyStudio that’s genius! I’ve been trying to figure out how to add something like this to a video I’m working on. Thank you!!
@@Benjamin.Greenwood You're more than welcome. It's what I'm here for 👍
Missed ya buddy
You too Ed. Hope all is well my friend
Missed your videos. Dude when I saw the add i used bad language and I hardly ever do. Wow. Hope you will make a how to video.
Haha cheers Kobus. Glad you liked it 👍
Brilliant and very inspirational - Thank You! One question... Where do you get the sound clips from???
Thanks a lot. All my SFX and music is from Epidemic Sound
wowwwwwww
Thanks 🙏
Love your work. Are you avaliable for a ads project?
Always keen to take on more projects. Feel free to send over a message via my email link on the about page, or send me an Instagram message with the link on my channel banner. Look forward to hearing from you 👍
great stuff......4:26 how did add that shine effect
That was just a punched out photoshop layer (remove the parts where you want the effect to happen) placed on top of the original footage, and then in between those two layers was a gradient exposure layer which I just keyframed left to right. Simples 👍
@@JamesKellyStudio thanks
I wanna marry this guy!
I'd have to get a divorce first
how you edited
Planning to create a course? Product videographer / commercial course?
Sounds like a great idea. Especially if I get comments like yours 👍 Would require a lot of planning I guess, and currently I’m struggling to even get consistent on RUclips 🤣
