In my short film "CARPE NOCTEM" I shoot mostly at eye level or slightly from above. But honestly, I didn't think about it too much, also if it matches quite well the idea of ordinary working class people. :)
yeah i agree angles tell you alot .like you see in most movies where they show the mafia kind of villan stepping out of the car n the camera is like on down shooting upward which show the subject bigger and scary
Your and Peter Mckinnon's channels are one of the best channels to make my footage even better, atleast in my opinion both of you make me think and realise and i am missing so much stuff :D Cheers!
It's funny how a slightly different perspective changes so much in how we perceive something! Awesome advice! gonna definitely try keep this in mind when I'm shooting next!
I have always thought that you look a little finish, but never thought that would be the case because of your great english, that's not typical for a finn. Great channel! love the tips
I agree. I love the CZcams community and mentality of uplifting and helping others succeed while at the same time sharing and marketing your own hard work!
Wow recently discovered your channel & I am really enjoying your videos!! They are really helping me out and are super helpful to learn more about film making... Thanks a million.
Some nice insight there and you make really good videos with great camera angles. And I agree that camera angles affect perspective of the viewer, but I don't really think that it decreases the value of the character because of camera angle, I think the camera angles decide which part of the story you want the viewer to focus on. Thoughts?
I've always understood the concept of shooting angles depending on how you want to portray the character, however coming from a wedding photography background, shooting down is always a more flattering angle over shooting up, particularly with females. How would you combat this if you wanted a flattering angle without making the subject appear weak? Great video as always :) (p.s. which of your LUT's do you use to grade these advice videos? I've purchased them and love your grading on these)
Thanks for the great comment! I think thats actually a bit of a myth that its always more flattering to shoot down. You can make a person look really flattering and still film a bit upwards but I wouldnt go too far with it. For females especially it helps to just tilt the head up a bit when your filming up. And I use the cine desaturated on these tutorials but of course I modify it a bit 🙏
Thanks for the great tip! I hadn't thought about tilting their head up a little too, I'll definitely give this a try! I'm very new to film making (well, more vlogging) as I've always been a photographer, watching your videos has helped so much, I hated Premiere up until watching one of your video last week and now I love it! Keep up the awesome work!
I dunno if you'll see my comment on the other video but I dropped the vlog from the day you shot the rollerblader near underpass! You got a sick channel man, really glad I met you that day. Turns out I watched your gh5 review video a couple weeks before we met. Trippy as f*ck to know that was the same gh5 you were using that day
Great info! Does the same pertain to wedding film-making? Many times I use the downward angle on our brides for a more flattering look, and use the upward angle more so for the groom.
Yea I dont think a downward angle is necessarily more flattering. When I did film weddings I filmed a lot just slightly up and if your in the right place then it looks great.
I once came face to face with the President of Kazakhstan - in London's Natural History Museum of all places . I'd have found it really difficult to get a low angle on this guy, he was small - I mean Danny de Vito small plus the fact he had five 6 1/2 footers in eighties tracksuits with earpieces and shooters protecting his low flying ass. Just a point. Still searching for that feel. Love the channel.
Hi Matt! Great video Man! A small question. If me camera can shot 4k up to 30 fps and i want to shot some slow motion but it just shots in 1080p @60 fps, how do you manage to combine those clips without losing a lot of video quality. Thanks
Im having a tough time deciding on if I should get the A7S II or the GH5. I use alot of Continues Auto Focus, and with the recent auto focus issues with the GH5; its got me tossing and turning between the two. Given that you are currently using the GH5, what is your experience with the auto focus and if there are any issues with the 5 axis stabilization (because there were also issues with that when walking forwards, and how it would create a swaying motion.) I also really like full frame sensors, but going to a GH5 wouldn't be too much of a change for me as I currently use the a6000. What has your experience with the A7S II been like aswell. Thanks so much for any feedback!
Hey man, I want to say thank you so much for your wonderful work! You make great videos and you have helped me a lot! I'm only 14 and I would love to one day be a freelance filmmaker. Right now I don't have that much gear, and all of my videos are edited in iMovie, yeah, iMovie. I have to be creative and use what I got and keep advancing. I would love to have a bunch of gear, but I have to be realistic and work with my small budget. I have had a camera in my hand for many years, but I want to advance with what I have. Do you have any tips for people like me who are in this stage of fiilmmaking? Thanks a lot! I appreciate it! Cheers, Nolan
Hey firstly thanks for the content. I don't know if its just me but lately the intro seems to be way louder then the rest of the audio. just wanted to give you the feedback! Anyway great video :)
Great tips! I shoot up the most because I shoot offroading videos and I want the vehicles to look bigger and stronger. What do you recommend for shooting on uneven terrain like shooting a jeep going up a trail? Check out my last couple videos let me know what you think. Thanks for the help
Amazing stuff Matti! I love everything what you do, but i have one problem. Window light just before you when you are talking to us... its really catch my eye focus ;( I want see you face clearly, not with this light boucing from your back.
Norweigan film maker from Andyax's YT channel, Eskild Fors died suddenly, following an acute depression :( he was so good at telling things and inspiring people like you guys. Maybe, you can do some tribute for him.
I love this guys videos but I gotta say you got a huge bobble head issue syndrome bro. Cant help but relate to the sketch Russell Peters did about 10 years back about this French Canadian stereotype. Anyway it doesn't bother me too much just keep doing what you do man thanks for putting the effort in to do these videos.
Thanks again so much for making these videos! Helped out my channel and the whole community so much! Would love to get some feedback for my channel if anyone has a free moment. Thanks everyone!
Which angle are you guys using the most????
In my video "Vares" I used neutral angle except for the little girl at the end. But I didn't tought about that- just filmed it.. ;-)
Im shooting downwards with a wide angle quite a bit to emphasize perspective and height. Depends a lot on the genre of the video :)
In my short film "CARPE NOCTEM" I shoot mostly at eye level or slightly from above. But honestly, I didn't think about it too much, also if it matches quite well the idea of ordinary working class people. :)
yeah i agree angles tell you alot .like you see in most movies where they show the mafia kind of villan stepping out of the car n the camera is like on down shooting upward which show the subject bigger and scary
I use a Drone so basically to the ground HAHAHAH
my shooting angle is pointing up... because I'm short :(
Haha 😂
Lol :D
where is danny black the struggle is real!! 😅
- lol! 🙂
my shooting angle is pointing down ... because I'm tall :(
I must say after watching you for a couple of weeks, I think you have the best intro on youtube!
Hah thanks dude! 🙌
Kobben Yes!
Agreed, that intro is simply epic!
Kobben ofc it is good. Most of the shots is from my country Norway 🇳🇴
Norway is awesome, spent 6 weeks there as a kid. So pretty!
Your videos have been so helpful!!👏🏼👏🏼
+a Wildflower Life - Healthy Food & Lifestyle thanks so much!

Great tips, going to do more research on camera angles. Thank You

I shot mostly neutral with a slight angle up. Unless when vlogging. I'm usually pointing it down slightly.
We only shoot from the top of moving vehicles
I am growing this guy. Keep it!
dope video as usual.. I'm learning so much on this channel
That Razors Skates hat though!
+Dwight Daly Jr. 👌
Makes all the difference. Primarily choose close up and straight, being 6'4 helps.
I like his video before I even finish it because no doubt his video are awesome and helpful
Hah thanks!
great information as usual...
Thank you!
Wondering about what you would suggest for angles that are not focused on a character? Like landscapes, animals or how to establish the setting.
What song are you using?!? It sounds great with the video!
Cool video, havent really thought much about this before. Will have to integrate it into future videos!
Yep its actually super important 🙌
Really a good video to be watched in order to learn something new ideas about filming.
Thank you so much sir.
+Kisendra Kisendraw 👍

Hallo, kindly how did u do a living Travel Feels reflecton in your intro Video.
U my Great Mentor, Thanks!!
Hey firstly thanks for the content. I don't know if its just me but lately the intro seems to be way louder then the rest of the audio. just wanted to give you the feedback! Anyway great video :)
It might seem like it but its not :) Its just the contrast from just talking to just music
What music are you using? I'm looking for a music to use on our travel vid and the one you're using seems nice.

If you guys are bored, i've uploaded my trip to a hill-station filmed by my phone. Feel free to give some suggestions.
