@@sketchleaf7698 thank you!! I love being able to provide new real perspective. It looks all roses when you see people shooting and lighting but on these bigger sets, it’s so much more than that!
Brittney, our first project we brought you into the chilling cold of the desert and you were such a trooper. Now we brought you to the pits of hell and never once did you complain, you're awesome keep crushing it on CZcams!
Thank you so much for your insight and amazing knowledge of the game. You explained everything in a way that did not go over my head. When I studied cinematography in college back in the 70’s, the reality of being an independent cinematographer afterwards kept me out of the game in addition to getting drafted into the Vietnamnam War. I had to become photojournalist to have a career. But after 50 years as a successful freelance photojournalist and author of 6 books, I can now afford equipment that was not within my reach in the 70’s. I’ve started with a Blackmagic 6K Pro rig, 6 Rokinon DSX cine lenses and other equipment for creating shorts that I love. Your post has inspired me to do more and even though I’m 75 now, the passion is still there to do short films. Thank you and continued success and blessings to you.
As a Filmmaker, it's nothing but BENEFICIAL to learn and understand ALL the jobs on a film set. In the long run it'll make you a much better Filmmaker.
I am going to ask the pivotal question others are afraid to ask. The question “How does the crew get food for breakfast, lunch, and or dinner. Dont want nobody falling out on set because they were famished or dehydrated.
Great video Brittney!!! Just one thought. You mentioned something like “there are some cinematographers who don’t know anything about lighting-and that’s okay…” What do you mean by that? Because in my mind, knowing how to light a scene to create the desired look is absolutely essential. Also I agree with Brady, your talking head shot is 👌🏼🔥
Hey! So I moreso mean some rely more on the gaffers knowing than them. So they may tell the gaffers what they are looking for but that’s it. They don’t know much of the lighting terminology. For me I can do a whole diagram and speak to my gaffers specifically about what I want. Im not like a pro because im not a gaffer but my goal is to really be able to dial in to meet my gaffer.
@@BrittneyJanae gotcha! After thinking about it more, I thought you might be thinking along those lines, of some relying more on their gaffer’s expertise. Makes sense! Thanks and great video!! 🔥🔥
Britteny what camera did you use for your onset interviews. Hopefully the Arri Log Ç3 gets put on the current Panasonic micro four thirds and full frame camera's.
I agree I think it should be a firmware upgrade. I didn’t shoot the onset but it was a bunch of cameras. The Armando was the c70 for sure. I think most of them were the c70.
@@robinprobyn1971 so I talked about me DPing day 1 while Brady DP’d day 2. In the intro I said alongside. So if you have ever had a series you really liked sometimes they will bring in a new DP for an episode or new Director. That’s basically how it was.
@@BrittneyJanae Ok thanks , I must have missed that "alongside " just wondered . I know about series having multiple DP,s but not heard of one film having two. Beside second unit etc. All power to you !
these are great tips and you are awesome! but...TBH this "movie" is being made to sell GH7s/Atlas lenses/bokeh rentals and has a bunch of "filmmaking influencers" so is most likely going to be not very good. As usual, these guys are trying to sell something to viewers they don't need and make money rather than make something unique/good. Sad this is what "movies" have become. Lets see where this actually gets distributed...
You do know you can make a film without it being distributed? Are you saying if someone makes a film and it doesn’t get distributed that means it’s not a film? Honestly I actually rent from Bokeh as a DP on my projects! Most of the projects I’ve done on this page I’ve rented from Bokeh. Did they invest to help us make this film YES, but what film has not had investors? Executive producers are literally people who have put money into the film. Brady and I are both Cinematographers. They hired us to DO this film. And we treated it like any other DO job. Rather it’s good or not, go out and shoot something! That’s how you grow, that’s how you learn. I guess I’m confused on the issue at hand. Is it because we had sponsorship that helped us make some of the films we want to make? Because what Hollywood film doesn’t?
Also I want to say as a DP who does commercials and documentaries this was my first time DPing a narrative. It was a great experience since I’m trying to dip my toes into Narrative. So I def want to thank the sponsors for putting money down for this to happen. Because now I have that experience as a DP. So again I don’t really see what’s wrong?
That’s all fine and it’s great everyone is able to find work on this film and get paid. My issue is that it appears like this film is being made with the express purpose to promote CZcams channels and sell products/services.
And not for some kind of artistic merit. Project like this, in my opinion, further turn movies into just more content and erode an industry of movies created with actual artistic intent and merit.
The point of the movie was to create a movie. We are thankful sponsors gave us money for it. As a DP in the industry when someone invest in your film they expect to get something back. It’s the same as if you did a gofundme. The more they invest the more they get back. Doesn’t change the point of wanting to make a film
A lot of these tips I haven't heard anywhere else on youtube so I appreciate you taking the time to put this together!!

Working along side you on NGL was the best part of this shoot. Btw why’s no one talking about your talking head???🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You have become one of my favorites!! And thank you!! No one cares about all the work I put into these talking heads lmbo!

Thank you so much for telling this!
Finding people that are better than you is a huge take away for me. Thank you for sharing.
So key!!
This was GREAT information as I’m beginning my journey into cinematography. You dropped lots of good nuggets that I will carry with me!
As a Filmmaker, it's nothing but BENEFICIAL to learn and understand ALL the jobs on a film set. In the long run it'll make you a much better Filmmaker.
Yep!! I agree wholeheartedly!!
Great video Brittney! Looking forward to the next one already
Thanks Brittney for giving us this view of what professional filmmaking is.
Always!! Thank you for supporting!
This is soo incredible! Absolutely killed it🔥
I am going to ask the pivotal question others are afraid to ask. The question “How does the crew get food for breakfast, lunch, and or dinner. Dont want nobody falling out on set because they were famished or dehydrated.
We had PAs and we had catering
You're an inspiration. Thank you. 💌
Wow, thank you!!

Hey! So I moreso mean some rely more on the gaffers knowing than them. So they may tell the gaffers what they are looking for but that’s it. They don’t know much of the lighting terminology. For me I can do a whole diagram and speak to my gaffers specifically about what I want. Im not like a pro because im not a gaffer but my goal is to really be able to dial in to meet my gaffer.

Really appreciate this video and thank you for always sharing your knowledge.

Super dope experience!
Thank you!!

You killed this!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Do you want that Apple box Chicago or LA? 😅

I saw a video where someone else claimed to be the dp of that film ? but seemed more like the gaffer , confusing ?
Did you watch this video? I explained it lol.
@@BrittneyJanae I did

@@robinprobyn1971 for sure. Since both days were so different it was really just an opportunity to allow us to have the opportunity!
👍
Alec Baldwin.....are you paying attention?
I kinda thought about that during.

I expect to see every video from you in anamorphic now.
Jk. We need to do an anamorphic collab now 🥲
