Wow, man. What an utterly excellent video. One thing I've realized is to treat the drone like an actual camera when you're filming -- meaning don't forget about composition, distance, and light. And for video especially: have a beginning and end point in mind for a shot. Think about what the point is of that shot? Anyhow, you've inspired and taught me a lot! Keep up the great work.

@s.s.productions Жыл бұрын

Hi, Sean! I appreciate your videos and the experience you share. I also am impressed with and enjoy the locations that you show. Still, one question bothers me: I believe 100% of your videos will be played on a monitor of some sort and not in the cinema at a frame rate of your choosing. If it's so, why do you shoot at 25fps instead of 30 when the monitors can't play a 25fps video with their 60hz refresh rate without skipping frames and making the movements jagged and jumpy? Example: 2:09 Example 2: 3:13 Am I the only one who sees the branches on the 1st example and the mountain on the second move in skipping and distracting way? If the other viewers see that as well, doesn't it make sense to shoot at 30fps and thus add to the professional look that you are teaching?

@SeanAlami Жыл бұрын

Thank you buddy. We all shoot 50 here in europe

@s.s.productions Жыл бұрын

Hi, Sean! Maybe there was a misunderstanding. I am in Europe too and yes, the power outlets have 50hz frequency, but the monitors' refresh rate is 60hz (on all monitors I have checked). 60hz monitor refresh rate doesn't divide correctly by 25fps and works much cleaner with 30fps footage according to my experience

@FPVSlice Жыл бұрын

@@s.s.productions True, but monitor refresh-rates differ a lot nowadays. Usually 60hz is the minimum. That's why i prefer to mostly shoot in 60 fps, it makes everything way smoother and looks best on KZfaq in my experience. But it really depends what you are shooting though. Slow movement looks best in lower framerates, gives it that cinematic feel like the clips in this video. But with certain footage, 24-25 fps video will induce some kind of stutter because the frames won't be displayed with an even amount of time. Compared to 30 or 60 fps video on a 60hz screen.

@niclasguenther6689 Жыл бұрын

Hey great explanation first of all. But I find myself curious about your shots in Germany. Did you apply for special permission to shoot at the location like Neuschwanstein etc? I know for a fact that these are no drone zones and you are not allowed to fly in city’s or in close proximity.

Hey all, something I'm super annoyed by when it comes to my own footage is when it's jittery/choppy. So I start to pay more attention to this and noticed it's in most of his shots as well. How to solve this? I know about the 180 rule (framerate/shutter speed) and I just bought ND filters I'm about to try out. Hope that helps or reduces it.

@dummag4126 Жыл бұрын

I have the same problem.. But if I see the same video in my smartphone it not happen. So I thinks that is some virus in driver video. I tryed to take videos with ND filters and 180 shutter speed, but the result is the same 5 fps but less detailed...tac tac tac is very annoyng

@IvanToman 9 ай бұрын

It has nothing with "180" rules or any shutterspeed used. Slower shutterspeed introduces motion blur which is a bit nicer to an eye, but does not fixes stuttering. This happens because of wrong frame rate. For youtube you need to record in 30 fps (or 60, 120 for slow motion). If you record in 24, 25, 50, ... you get this. Also, set timeline to 30 fps, too. Only for cinema projectors you use 24. Try and thank me later.

@levyherczeg2423 11 ай бұрын

So maybe im just to picky but why are all your shoots so jittery ? What i mean by that is most of the part the background not what’s in front of the camera.It’s coz your on 24 fps and your moving your drone or something you did on your edit ? I notice that coz it happened to me as well and i did love it with 30 fps footage and edited in 30 fps timeline or 60 fps footage in 30 fps timeline. Besides that really really great content and explanation and i love your way of composition. Have a nice day
