Just watched it and already know that I'll be going back to this from time to time. Such a good learning resource for new filmmakers. Thanks for making this!
Cinematography 101. Love it. This literally reminds me of the first semester of college film studies I attended in 1977. Of course the gear has evolved, but take time to re-watch any of the classics (too long of a list for inclusion here), and you’ll see every one of these camera moves, executed to great effect. Nicely done!
I’d love to see a video on how to use regular house lights as film lights. Professional lighting gear is expensive af these days so sometimes you can only use what you have on hand sadly, and ways to DIY what you have would be really helpful lol
You just picked the words out of my mouth. Would really like to see such a tutorial using regular house lights, small rgb lights, and gels. Professional lighting is simply out of my reach at the moment.
“These days” lmao professional lighting gear literally gets cheaper and cheaper by the day. But you don’t need that either, look at stuff like dogme 95. What you need is to quit spending money, stop making tripe, and learn how to properly direct. Everything else is superfluous
Very interesting, as usual. I like the fact that you took time to talk about emotionnal tone, and not just technical matters. I've been a subscriber since the very start of your channel, and I saw your content evolve in the best way possible. Keep up the great work.
Hey there. I've got a question and/or idea for a future video. I'm interested in full-on unmotivated handheld (eg: Winter's Bone, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Bourne Identity, etc.). If I was going to forsake what one can get from a tripod/dolly approach in order to go entirely handheld, how would I best create visual interest through shot variety? What would I need to do in order to be tasteful about it?
So I would recommend investing in what simply called a butt dolly, which is exactly what it sounds like. It's essentially a rolly chair that you can operate yourself for handheld shots. Barry Aykroyd, the most recent DP I worked with, used this approach several times
You should’ve added Spike Lee’s use of the dolly shot, where he’ll have one or more actors on the dolly itself and the dolly op would move it forward or back-the background moves completely whereas the subjects remain static in their own little bubble. Just one different way to use the dolly movement!!
You’re the best man! No matter how many times I see a video about some particular aspect of filmmaking, seeing it presented again with a different voice, different examples, and a whole new context always awakens new understanding for me. I’ve been watching your channel for a couple years now and I’m never disappointed. Thanks for everything!
Great video as always and so good that you mention the emotional part of camera movements and also that you should ask yourself if the camera might not even have to move at all. Awesome stuff 👏😄
Technically, not a whole lot. Zoom can change the aperture/focal plane, though. Many cinematographers use prime lenses as well, so there is no option for zoom.
Thanks for your videos! I would love a video about the lighting setting, the lenses used in "Spencer" By Pablo Larraín. the direction of photography is incredible !.
Small note in an otherwise great video: The use of angled photos of the camera when showing the direction of rotation around the 1:30 mark was a very confusing choice… In the first one, you say the rotation is from a top-down perspective, but the image of the camera is clearly showing one side in addition to the top, so it appears to be a rotation in an angled plane ☹️. If you used images from one of the primary axis (direct side, direct top, etc), it would have been much easier to follow.
Always love your content, just wanted to add my 2 cents and say that your videos are much more distinct from the rest on CZcams when you stay in the "in depth" topics rather than things like this, which are super easy to come by on channels like studio binder( and with the same old examples on video too). Still, the direction of your channel is up to you and maybe you want to mix it up for a bigger audience or this was just a 2 videos exempt, but I hope to see more specific videos for people with a deeper interest in the industry
This is valuable content but you have changed into a more "mainstream" type of channel...analysing basic cinematography techniques, which have been covered countless times. I have been watching your videos from the very start and think that your early videos, that are about cinematography style for example, are much more valuable, interesting and also split you apart from all those "i work on wedding videos, i know all about cinematography" type of channels. I think "in depth cine" should be just that, but i understand that these type of videos get more views. I still enjoy your content and learn lots...just wanted to share my point of view. :)
Stayed up till 5am editing. What a treat before my brain collapses. Awesome video as always!

Can you write the titles of the movies that are shown in the video? Thanks!

He did a video on lighting a while back and touched on a few diy ways to achieve certain effects
Professional lighting is cheap as hell these days!
And “cheap” is relative!

I'd also recommend working with a first assistant camera operator. That way you can focus on movement alone, while your first AC is handling focus.

I hope you all had a great Christmas yesterday or whatever you celebrate.
Is it possible for you to do a vid on the Director’s lingo for combination camera movements like “push in, pedestal up?
Excelente información, gracias!

Man, please do more set crew breakdowns!
What are you looking to know my friend? I work in the film industry and I can maybe shed some information for you
This is very cool, great work as always.
Please include small info about the film title you are using whenever you use a shot. I watch those partly for finding good movies :D
this is exactly what i needed ! Thank you for this video !
Thanks for all your great resources, In Depth Cine!! ✔️

This is incredible

Thanks for the valuable informations 👍
Thank you
Great video as always and so good that you mention the emotional part of camera movements and also that you should ask yourself if the camera might not even have to move at all. Awesome stuff 👏😄
The push in is my favourite
So pan left, pan right. Pan Up, pan down. Pan in and out. Got it.
Happy New Year to you, IDC. Thanks for your fantastic content this year!
Very interesting and informative
what's the difference between push in and zoom in?
Technically, not a whole lot. Zoom can change the aperture/focal plane, though. Many cinematographers use prime lenses as well, so there is no option for zoom.
