How To Organize Your Footage As A Filmmaker
Ive traveled a lot this past couple of years while shooting primarily video and through that journey Ive made some mistakes that I think you can learn from me. This video will be broken down into 3 different parts.
1. Pre production and Milanote
2. Hard Drives
3 File/ Media Management. - This is going to be huge if you are are a content creator, film-maker and have been filling up on storage throughout the years. Hard drives space can get pretty pricey but if you learn how to consolidate your footage, trim the unused footage and delete it safely to make catologs, You will have your work more organized, save money and also are able to make stuff a lot quicker. I hope this video helps. Much Love!

Fear (Cinematic Travel Film)
zhlédnutí 787Před měsícem
I recently went on a spontaneous trip to Norway and Guatemala, two extremely different worlds. From the terrains, the weather, the colors. As I got home sitting down with all of this blue footage from Norway and all of this warm footage from Guatemala. I wanted to tell a story not of the landscape but more of how I feel lately as a creative. For me, something I’ve been battling with internally ...
Stranded In A Snow Storm | Sierra Nevadas

On February 25, 2023 my friends Mike, Santiago and I went and visited Alabama Hills to shoot what we though was going to be a little bit of snow and ended up being back to back blizzards getting us stuck for a couple of days. Luckily we had our vans so we were equipped to survive for about a week. One of the craziest experiences I've ever had in the Sierra Nevadas Footage shot on the Canon R5

Postcards from Italy. I had a lot of fun shooting this. Coming from a background of landscape photography, I used to shoot with tripods all the time. Coming into video I love to use what I learned with that and combine it with the both mediums. This type of video is a first on the channel and I will be doing a lot more of them.

Everyone always talks about how turning 30 is this crazy moment in your life, I guess I always believed people were just hyping it up. But yesterday was my 30th birthday and ever since the year started I feel like all I've done is think about my life leading up to 30. I've felt so many different emotions going through the memories of my 20s. All I can say that I feel now is acceptance. I've fin...

      @@ChristopherBalladarez I feel exactly what you're going through. We just get way too much into our head sometimes and literally overthink everything haha. I've been creating vids on CZcams about photography & filmmaking over the past 3,5 years, but I feel like I want to talk more about life and make some kind of cinematic vlogs. It feels scary to make such a change tbh, especially after finally being monetised through photography & filmmaking content.

    I love it man! There have been so many times during these adventures when I've turned to my friends and said, "I can't do this, man. I can't do this." If it weren't for my best friend, Devin, looking me straight in the eyes, grasping my shoulders, and saying, "Yes, you can," I would never have reached the mountain peaks, explored the streets of Thailand on mopeds, or overcome many other challenges. That new perspective would never have come. These are the moments that stick with me, the moments that showed me I could do more, that I was more, that I am more. Thanks for reading and thank you Chris for creating my man.
