for me it's the fact that your BTS videos are long-form and detailed. You can literally see the entire thought process and the 'construction' from start to finish. Thank you for being selfless with your knowledge.

Another banger Carlo!! You asked in the early segment of the video if you did a decent job wearing all those hats. I believe you did. You handled all those roles with confidence. Managing the crew, lunch time, location time, company move, all while getting the shots you need as a DP. You were even directing at one point haha. Truly very impressive and inspiring.

I actually was 2nd AC for a movie that Nathan Airey was gaffing! It's such a small thing but to watch my favorite filmmaking series and to see someone I worked with closely on it makes me feel like I am on the right path. Even when all the imposter syndrome kicks in. I can't wait for the next video!

Thanks so much for this! what a great team and I love when the client is so open-minded, mine would never approve a location if they see other brands in the shot and I've worked with a big-name beer company.

@myvideoguy Жыл бұрын

100% - soo true. That one of the obvious signs it's not a higher budget commercial, as a lot of the staging, signage, brand products / SKUs, blocking etc would've been approved and setup prior to the shoot day, and not so much off the hip on the actual day - because those are the things than can delay a shoot if you're trying to gain approval from someone higher that's perhaps off-site as opposed to the rep / brand manager that's often on-site. You gotta do your best to identify ANY of those kind of issues well ahead of the shoot day, for the bigger players that HEAVILY curate.

I was going to ask if you could do a video showing the EZ right you’re using and how you’re holding the camera to get the shots and stuff and how you rigged out the camera on it so that you could you know tilt up and down the side grips and handles ….and just how you in general you use it because I want to get into using more handheld stuff and I bought the easy rig but I have no idea what I’m doing with it and how to rig the camera so it works properly so I would love to have you do a video explaining how you have rigged out the camera, and in the use of the easy rig
