We are most sensitive to sound. Incredible sound and poor footage is always better than incredible footage and poor sound.
NaNs Florent that sounds like it’s true
Most probably,,, but Not always ,it depends.. Otherwise a blind man won't be saying that it is better to have a clear vision and a deaf man saying is is much better if he have a good hearing.. Our senses balanced is much important yet it depends on the situation and fact that we are dealing with
HELLA FACTUALS 🤌🏾
I gotta disagree. But that just may be the cinematographer in me. I don’t mind bad audio if it looks good
Just finished my first interview style video for a client submitting a video for getting into a tv show. Can't post it publicly but I can tell you I spent about 3 hours just making sure her audio sounded right. I recorded her on a zoom h5 in an old factory that has been turned into a shopping mall, so there was a lot of ambient background noise (I had my work cut out for me). I've been a still photographer for years but I'm new to video. After my first short last month I learned just how important sound is and how damaging it can be to a video if done incorrectly. I'm glad I learned this lesson so soon in my new venture into filming. Simon, I can't thank you enough for these little videos. You've helped me out a crap ton. Keep doing what you do!
i had a class on sound design for movies a couple of months ago and it was the first time I'd know/realized just how important sound is, and how much you can do with it. it's mind blowing! i just bought a mic and i can't wait to play around with it!
Thank you so much, every time I lose motivation or faith in one of my videos yours always keep me going. Cheers Simon!
Hey, I work as a boom op and this video is one of the best ones describing what we do on set. Humble attitude and great results too. Keep up the good work man!
This has been one of my favorite videos, Simon. One of the things I enjoy most in film making is playing with sound.
Hey Simon,
I would just like to thank you for motivating me to begin a short film production. I like how you talk about more of the creative side of filmmaking rather than the technical side (Which is still important), and the videos have taught me the most important thing in filmmaking: story. I used to just think about the latest and greatest Red cameras (Although I still dream about having one some day) and the most expensive Cine lenses, but I now realise that the gear that I have at the moment is perfect. You are one of my favourite youtubers, and I will continue to watch you for years to come.
Thank you,
Aaron
+Aaron John aaron this is such an encouraging comment to read. So glad that you're happy with the gear you've got, and all the best with the short! you'll learn loads from the experience no matter what happens :)
I like how you brought up creative reasons for sound choices instead of just technical reasons.
In one of his videos he describes how he doesn't like to be preachy. The dudes got talent in everything he does, even explaining things.
Smart, very smart audio tips for capturing folio on set, ambience sounds for each set location, being aware of distracting sounds in the environment and eliminating them if possible or waiting for them to go away, tilting the boom microphone during dialogue shots to capture what each person is saying, getting the boom mic as close as possible without getting it in the camera frame are all great skills to know when recording sound for film.
Great presentation, your points are so well demonstrated as always. I am learning a lot from your vids. Thanks!
Hey Simon. I just started watching your videos and I'm completely hooked. I cannot stop watching your videos. I have been spending years doing research on filmmaking, but I have learned more from watching your videos than any other, so thank you. Keep up the good work!
+LANGDON ALGER this is so encouraging to hear, glad it's helping :)
I would love to see a behind the scenes type series in which you create a short film with absolutely 0 budget, it would be very interesting and helpful to show people you don't need a big budget at all to get started! Loved this episode too (:
That's a great idea and challenge.
Love the growth! And the cheeky apple at the end
wow! so much effort about sound is in that short film. didnt know until now. well done Simon.
Hi, ive just started watching your videos and I fell in love with them. The videos are really well edited and you can definitely see that you take your time and effort to make these videos amazing! Keep on the amazing work!
Spot on, Simon. Kudos. Looking forward to you putting the knowledge to one of your films. Cheers mate.
Awesome video! Thank you for highlighting the importance of sound in film. Your work actually inspired me to start my youtube-channel about audio recording. I hope it helps to create better sound, just like your tutorials helped me in creating better video images.
Amazing tips man ! so great to see your channel grow , You really work hard on it and you totally deserve it !
+THB why thank you!
+DSLRguide wow... the split second ending :D
get a room
Yes, I needed to know this. Working on a short film (non-professional) and I needed to know some audio-recording information and tips. Thanks, Simon, seeya next week.
your channel is amazing man, never stop creating
Yes! New video to start the week off right
This was really helpful thanks! I finished a no budget action short a few months ago and I am now planning a much more ambitious drama. My main difficulty with the action short was sound. (This is why I wrote it with very little dialog and tried to incorporate story elements visually).
Hey Simon I think it's amazing how you are a storyteller already in film making
Sound is 50% of the film! I have learnt that the hard way :)
Great video!
Audio is VERY important in filmmaking.
Fantastic video.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
I absolutely loved this
Very insightful & encompasses just about everything when it comes to recording audio during filmmaking 🤞🏾
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge Simon!
Simon, me and my friends are planning to get our hands on filmmaking this summer, and I sincerely thank you for this insightful video on sound recording tips :)
+Shashank Dongre no problem :)
Thank you so much! This is the video I was waiting for :D, you know your Channel is helping me so much for my animations/videos.
Thanks DSLR
There are so many levels to think on when it comes to audio, and before this I was blind to most of them!
You are very humble for
showing your tips to aspiring filmakers .thanks
Yay!!
I was just thinking about audio!
You're great Simon :)
Thank you so much for making this video! Sound is one of the things I struggle at when making films
You're a good teacher. You should go far in the movie making world.
Wonderful explanation! Inspiring. You've helped to eliminate fear for aspiring movie makers.
Awesome as always!
Fantastic video! One thing I'ver learnt (the hard way) if you are turning off fridges and anything making noise that is critical to turn back on again, is to find a way to remind yourself to do this! I put my car keys into an envelope with a reminder on the outside, so I can't drive away until I have seen it, but different ways work for different people
+William Jones This is important! Earlie this year I shot a scene that required me to turn off my furnace, and I forgot to turn it back on when I was done. The next morning I woke up feeling like an ice cube, it was horrible haha
I wish more people cared about the sound like you. It's HALF!!! Great post and keep up the great work!
excellent as always. I really like the balance in content recently(technical vids like this one, managing: how to budget, philosophy: can i call myself a filmmaker yet)
+Byonnem why thank, you - that's great feedback to hear :)
Thanks that was super useful. Would be good if you could do one around when to use what types of mics. Love your videos, and your relaxed, informative style. Thanks!
Great video again, as per normal some great advice, I have learnt a lot from all your videos. And has helped me
I really like all your videos on sound
Great how much you've learned from this project, so worth it! Thanks for sharing!
Im a audio engineer student and this will be my first time being an audio supervisor on a short film, wish me luck guys

Too good Brother... thank you 😀😀
Amazing!!
So nice!
Hey Simon, I know my channel is fairly new well, my content is fairly new, but I gotta say you've given me a lot of help over the last 6 months in terms of filmmaking... thanks!
marvelous!
Thank you for another very informative video
You make really interesting and cool videos
Could you do a video on shooting scenes at night and what adjustments must be made in terms of camera settings and lighting, thanks. :)
I didn't like the story of the short film very much, but the content you've been able to teach with your experiences on it has been GOLD! Love ya Simon!
It's very helpful! Thank you!
+deletenehs shen no problem:)
Guys.... All episodes features the apple bite, you need to compromise and watch every second of the episode !!!
This was helpful thank you
Excellent video...
Great video! :)
Sadly many productions don't pay enough attention to sound. Poor production sound is a real immersion killer.
Excellent
Love the ideas(:
dope thanks for this
If I use single camera to shoot two people dialogue scene with double audio system(boom),which method should I use?
taking each sentence each shot(but difficult to sync)
or to act the whole dialogue twice and taking two shot between each character？
Thank you!
Good sound work is the key to high production value.
thanks simon
Thx this help a lot
I do know about foley and stuff of that sort, just never knew some technical stuff like HOW to actually record the audio.
Very helpful!
Interesting video, it is amazing what lengths film makers go to to make a film
Please do an episode on your audio post production workflow for your latest short!
+Will Greeff will do!
Great video! I think this video will be important in helping people understand the importance of sound. Any advice on how to capture authentic sounding footstep/running foley? I find issues with this, especially if the scene takes place on carpeted floors that don't make much noise.
+Lost Utopia Films glad it's helpful! When it comes to foley, I think there are a few things worth remembering: Your ears are the most important thing. Experiment with lots of different materials etc until you find something that sounds good. Listen to films, to find out what kind of sounds they use, so you have a starting point. Other than that I think you just have to spend a lot of time on it. Search and search for sounds, and record many different versions so you have options. For footsteps in particular, the one mistake I always make is to have the microphone too close, which makes them sound artificial.
DSLRguide
Thanks for the response! I'll try out your tips!
haha I see what you did there, holding the apple shot to the very last moment so we would think you had forgotten... and then showing it very quickly ;)
