Which TIP stood out for you? For me going low and shooting up was a game changer!
I find my self shooting eye level a lot. Maybe it’s time for going low and shooting up. Thank you for the great tip and video is great as always. Keep it up
yeah I grab that tip from here! Thanks!
I love the handheld moves.👏🏻
How do you keep it flatering for the model when often shooting low ?
Shooting handheld. The smooth movement you can get with them. And the layering of elements looks nice.
Question: if you use a 24 mm on a apc, you'll get around 35 mm. But does it looks like a 35? Or looks it like a 24 mm on the edget with the distortion and all?
What I've learned in the last 15 years of photography: A great model makes up 90% of good photos. Apparently it's no different with video :D Boring locations without chic models: THAT would be a challenge ;)
True
I couldn't agree more.
ehh no, for me lighting and composition is number 1, the foreground background seperation does wonder to an image
Yep. Step one - find a girl to be in front of your camera in basically a bra.
I thought I was an antagoniser & that something's wrong with me for speaking the truth.
The tip to to establish a relationship with a model was really useful to me. Because with a model girlfriend or wife, your shoots won't fail in any location!
Really glad you found that tip helpful. :)
Yeah! Why didn’t I think before to get in a relationship with a model!? 😂
😂😂😂
Dude your footage is always SO clean. Great video!
Wow dude! 🔥🔥 That means so much coming from you!
song name at 0:17 ???
😂😂😂 sorry but it’s the same issue , no epic location no problem , get an amazing and beautiful model instead 😂😂😂😂
this video just teached me more than my 4 years at the university's cinema tv department
Oh wow, I take that as a huge compliment. Thank you for your support on my channel! 🙏
Tips 1. Angle shoot low or high. 2. Shoot handheld - move camera and get dynamic tracking shots.
3. Lighting - control and placement of light. Use diffusers or artificial light.
4. Try to shoot wide open to avoid background distractions.
5. Subject distance relation to camera. Fore ground elements and background elements
6. Details- Close up shots to get epic and connect the shots.
7. Color Grading - focus on improving color.
Nice! Thx for the recap :)
no. basically get a tight lens :)
Bro, your content is paid content level. Thanks for the tips and the inspiration. You should definitely chapter marks these tips.
Whoa thanks dude, that's so awesome of you to say. Really appreciate it so much!
As always, condensed, packed with knowledge, no rambling, clean and… absolute gold
Yo, glad you liked it. Thanks a lot for the comment and for supporting the channel! 🙏
Every of your videos is always enlightening and educative. You know how to teach and demonstrate the tips so well. I’ve really learnt a lot from you since I came across this channel. Thank you so much and keep doing what you do.
Reading this really brings a smile to my face, thank you brother!
As a fellow photographer for 15 years these tips are great and are all valid points. But I have to subtract points for opting to use the easy way out with these massive deflectors and lighting setups. So the video really becomes "how to film cinematic footage with $$ and equipment". Keep in mind, I have owned dozens of lights, softboxes, deflectors, backdrops, etc etc etc and know the ins and outs of how pricey that can get and I also know that the type of person watching this video won't own what we own. Just something to keep in mind.
so true. Tomorrow, for my reporting work needs, I have to upgrade my lens to a telephoto lens, which is also not cheap.
this video earned my subscription! wonderful job, the way you explain, how fast you do it, how concise and the amount of info you compress into your videos is outstanding! great job!
I am really happy to hear that, hope to see you around in the comments :) Thank you for the compliment!
You're very talented and your shooting ideas are really helpful. I've always wanted to know how to "stand out" in terms of shots and composition - now I know 🙂. ...and most surprising thing is that you've created these beautiful shots using only a "bare" camera: no cages, handles, steadicam or a monitor - not even a camera strap - genius!
Thank you, that means so much to me! I've always believed in getting by with the bare minimum unless I need the extra stuff I'm not gonna use it :)
@@jacques_crafford these type of shots are my only regret going with blackmagic cameras. Awesome cameras in every way but there is no way in hell I could just go handheld like you did here without some stabilisation in camera.
Well, using sony a7sIII which has ibis and gmaster lens i guess with stabilization system is not so hard to keep footage well. Ofcourse you need got skills to still keep them well, but try to do shooting with old apsc camera with no stabilization at all, That’s challenging :p
@@ManoelFlesch Try the new gyro stabilization in davinci resolve! It should be great!
@@pia_movies bro I have worked with Nikon D3200 & handheld.God gave me the courage to work with that & it worked wow.
I just came across your channel and can already tell I’m in for a binge session. Such great information delivered very concisely. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it’s much appreciated! 🙏🏻
Man that makes me so happy to hear, I hope learn lots more from me! Grateful for the support!
Wow, this video is incredible! You really did a fantastic job of making a boring location look epic. Your camera techniques and props are on point. I especially loved the way you used the light and shadows to create a sense of atmosphere. I'm also impressed by your editing skills. The video flows really well and the music is perfect. Overall, this is a really well-made video. I'm definitely going to be checking out more of your work. 🤩
THANK YOU very much for the video tuturial ..
Thank you for this video. This was great!
Really enjoyed watching this. The tutorial l itself was emotive! Thank you for the tips. Great to see what one can do
As a noobie, all of them stand out to me, but #6 hit home. Going in tight on the details is where I will focus this week. I learn something from each and every video you create Jacques and for that, you have all my gratitude.
That makes me so happy to hear, thanks for taking the time to write this Mark!
Always straight to the point, concise and very useful! Great tips!
Thank you Maxim, I'm honoured to have your support! Hope you have an amazing year bro!
Great video Jacques👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks mate!
Ah every tip was so valuable, but the “using elements to create depth” (not just shooting wide open) is GOLD. Another inspiring video. 🤜🤛
This was a great tutorial. Thanks.
I’ve watched 5 of your videos already and still binge watching! lol Your videos are all so good and informative! Thank you!
Thanks Manny, you are most kind! Appreciate the support!
Wow! Gracias.
So much value in this video, incredible, thank you very much Jacques amazing tips and footage from yourself.
Thanks so much Troy, you're welcome!
This is amazingly helpful.
Very useful video, Jacques!

So glad to hear that, thanks Jaden!
Wow this is a great video. Thanks Man!
Dude... Your content is always refreshing and inspirational. Love it!
So stoked to hear that, thanks my dude!
Your work is always super impressive, your framing and lighting is on point!
This is such a nice comment, thank you!
Your tips are always pure gold, thanks a lot! What amazes me the most is the perfectly smooth motion of your handheld shots. Is this years of training paying off and post stabilization (gyro data?).
Thanks that means so much to me! I think the stable shots are a combination of both, but I do use Active Steady a lot, works great on the 35mm and up (not so with wides).
I have to say I have learned so much watching your channel! You are very clear when teaching and straight to the point. You should have way more subscribers. Unlike the these other youtubers, it is clear you have years of experience and have alot to teach. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
That means so much to me bro, THANK YOU for your support! I hope to share lots more with you!
Thanks mate!

very nice recommendations!
Thank you for your comment and support on the channel! 🙏
So cool what you were able to do just in someone's backyard. I definitely thought those shots were in exotic locations. Love the detail tip, too!
So stoked to hear that bro, was afraid that people might think the garden is an epic location but it really isn't, I had to work the angles to get those shots :)
To film like this with basic gear you need the most rate resource of all - TALENT!
holy crap what an abundance of intentional info. amazing
So happy you think so! 🙏
Awesome video Jacques! Loved the simple tube lighting setup. Im looking at investing in a tube light!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you☺️
Thanks, this was great. There was so much in there that I'll likely watch a few times as a refresher
Glad to hear that. Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼

Best video tutorial i have seen in years
This is very use full 👍
So happy to hear that! Thanks for taking time to comment
ok. matter of depth. got it! you Sir, crystal clear. #excellent
Glad it was helpful!🔥🔥
I am more photography than film at this point, but of course the two are very interchangeable. I like going low and shooting up, or ground elements as foreground. I also like the framing achieved by moving around the one model to get a better angle through the trees. Thanks for the tips
Hey, thank you so much for taking the time to comment. Glad you like the tips. I really do appreciate your support as a subscriber. 🔥🔥
