    Turning the Aidin knob even more you become so conscious your mind gains direct access to the channels database. In your mind’s eye you have instantaneous thumbnail access to every channel and piece of media that has ever been produced in the universe.

    The dune is silent, but for the murmur of a soft breeze. You kneel down and run your fingers through the sand, your hand like a tongue tasting the emotion locked in every grain. A symphony of a thousand subtle yet distinct emotions washes over you. Somehow it all computes in the vastness of your mind. It’s like you raked your tongue through the depths of Aidins turbulent psyche.
    Your eyes well up and Aidin rolls down your face.
    A loud crack of Aidin, like a gunshot, startles you from above, and the sky begins to pour with heavy rain. The sound of rain soothes your soul. The landscape - or, really, your mindscape - feels enchanted, exactly as you want it to be.

  • @BryceDocherty

    Thanks for making this one man! I feel that many people see travel videos, how cool the person looks in them, and think their life is just always amazing. And it gets many to want to replicate those people and have a similar lifestyle. When I started I did it for the wrong reasons. I eventually worked with Mike Corey/Fearless and Far on RUclips and realized this idea of being "the cool guy with the camera that everyone liked" was not at all what it seemed. I then shifted entirely into making documentaries and helping tell peoples stories in an artistic way to make people care about a subject. Travel videos are a good way to start to see where it will take you or if you are truly passionate about filmmaking at all. But if anyone is doing it for followers, likes, or their ego, it will eventually wear on you. But for many it takes getting to the point in your dream to be let down by your own expectations of that dream. This is what happened to me anyway. As you said, do it for the right reason. And that reason is, imagine if no one knew you were making your videos or even watched them, would you still make them? Thanks for reading.

    • @AidinRobbins
      @AidinRobbins  Год назад +1

      For the most part it's the same as grading anything else- my usual struggle with drone footage is pulling out enough color contrast, so I make sure to boost the saturation before grading and finish it off with split toning in the color wheels. Other than that, my other grading tutorials should apply :)

    Great video! I'm 6 weeks already into my trip through Portugal and I started to get some negative feelings about my video craft. I would have loved to find in your video more info about how you get over back pain, how you choose what to shoot (sometimes the place is meh, other times it can be overwhelmingly beautiful), the gear you use, etc.
    Once again, thanks for all your efforts in making content!

    About the sixth point. I have recently revisited Malta after 3 years and I was looking forward to one specific spot I have discovered the first time there.
    After 3 years the place was devasted. Garbage everywhere. Polystyrene in the sea water. Fish have fled the place, so many people there. It has really hit me. I remembered the place as such an iconic place to chill and absorb positive energy. Now, such a sad dirty place.

    Hi Aidin. Do you usually scout a location before making a video about it?? What would your approach be if you didnt have the luxury to scout??
    We have been making travel films for sometime now and we don't have any background in movie making or cinematography. We have learnt everything about it by watching channels like yours.
    One of the toughest things about travel film-makin, in our opinion, is how unpredictable a place can be. We have had occasions when a place is underwhelming or difficult to shoot or bad weather or bad lighting yada yada yada.....
    How do you insure yourself w.r.t these scenarios. We find it really hard to come up with a 8-10 min video with just 1 or 2 days in a given place. Is there any storytelling hack/trick you would suggest??
    btw, we love your channel and have learnt a lot by just deconstructing some of your videos. Love from India.

  • @IAF1900
    @IAF1900 Год назад

    Great tips and the explanations were just as good! For me tip number 6 was the most important. There are some many gems around us. People usually forget that even the least known ones are still important to protect.
    Unfortunately I experienced it when I went to see the forest of Fanal . People had thrown away their rubbish, and it was truly heartbreaking. I managed to clean the ground by myself and wasn't able to get all the shots I was aiming for. But I'm happy I took this decision.
    Apart from that, I must say that the Intro was amazing and sun rays shots were stunning as well 👏

    Man, the point you made about the location being the main character is SO true. I cringe when I see a travel video and there's a monologue about how the person chose to travel to xyz country because they were looking to learn more about themselves or some pseudo philosophical BS. Far too many of these.
    This is why travel filmmakers like Brandon Li and Fernweh Chronicles resonate with so many people because they tell stories from the locations themselves.
