- In this video I go over a little bit of how I light and film my dioramas cinematically. At the end I show one technique with just an iPhone camera that has great results, so you can get started on a budget!

The first thing i noticed is the calmness you breath. I watched some adhd filmtographers on yt and they get me hyped and then nothing! But you are really calm and easy to watch
100% Genuine personality > fake bs everytime.
Love your work, and the powered standing desk is an amazing idea. I might have to look into one just for this reason!
An interesting look behind the scenes. I wish the jump from filming with my phone to an actual decent camera setup wasnt more than a house payment :-D. But some good info on using the phone. Cheers!
Haha I wish it was cheaper too! Appreciate it!
Haha, so true, plus expensive equipment are so overwhelming. After putting all that hard work in creating the model, and if the video quality is poor, it’s a punch in the gut, Sigh!
I love seeing behind the scenes stuff like this. It's so cool just seeing how much time and effort goes into doing what you love.
This is just so Wonder bro. Wow. I am blown away by this
PLEASE CAN YOU DO THE LIVING ROOM IN THE 2nd CONJURING MOVIE. Including the recliner chair next to the stairs of the old man who says “This is my house, get out now!”
Great video and very interesting to see how much work goes not only into your beautiful and detailed dioramas but also into the filming. Awesome end results. Thank you and I hope you'll never run out of ideas for more dioramas.
Really enjoy you walking through this so clearly but also concisely. Also appreciate you showing the more budget friendly alternative and the differences in quality. Really cool video, thank you!
Great work man, thanks for sharing how you do it all, and thank you for the great tips! Incredible work and incredible cinematography!
I love your work the kind of detailing and footage quality that you achieve is amazing. I would like to see more behind the scene how to capture miniature models in a cinematic way. It’s a real struggle, especially without expensive equipment. This video helps, and hope to see more content like this. Thank you so much 🙌🏽
My first slider was an old HO train car on some track that I stapled to a two by four. It worked out better than I expected.
I’m loving this channel.
Haha gotta start somewhere!
Just found your channel today and love what I’m seeing. This is next level work! Can’t wait to watch everything. Thanks for the detailed breakdown since I’m also a photographer.
The dioramas and camera work are amazing! Awesome Work!
Fantastic look at your process!
Excellent building skills with atmospheric results. Nice to see the inspector making a contribution. Thanks for the brilliant video.
Outstanding! As a miniature builder myself, I find your work both, intimidating and inspiring. I hope to one day achieve your level of skill.
And, on that note, yes, I would definitely, very much, like to see a "deeper dive" into how you shoot your diorama builds.
In fact, I just subscribed, and clicked my very first bell on CZcams, (after discovering you while looking for that very video, and watching many of your videos since), so I'll be sure not to miss it when you post it.
I haven't built anything in over a decade, and just set my shop for the first time since my last build. But now that I'm getting close to retirement age, I'm looking for something I can do at home, to supplement my meager social security, in the hopes that I can retire with a profitable hobby to keep me from eating cat food and/or going insane.
That's where you come in...
Hey, thanks for sharing. Seriously, I am blown away by your work.
I love your work.Its absolut amazing!
Thank you so much this info was so helpful. Always really great videos!!!
Thank you for sharing this! Beautiful eye for filming your scenes
This looks so good! Great work
this is absolutely incredible.
Super cool!
This is so cool and inspiring
Fantastic!! Thank you for all the explanation!
Nice dude, thanks so much for taking the time to share. It's awesome knowing things like this.
Thanks for watching!
As always, your work is always superb! :)
Oct. 2, 2021---Thanks for this and your other videos. You're doing what I want to do, but in 1/35 scale for some zombie/ apocalypse dioramas. And I understand how you can accumulate stuff over a period of years. Got into model building back in '74 and quit about 20 years ago. But once I saw others building zombie/apocalypse dioramas, I was hooked and haven't looked back. When I quit modeling for awhile, had 1,500 unbuilt kits and resin, fantasy figures. With my new interest, it's running around 1,900? Been sked to post a video of them, but the only camcorder I have is a 8mm one that uses cassettes. But I did pick up a Nikon P900 after seeing YT review videos on it. That's because of its macro ability. When I can zoom in a quarter that's in focus, I'm happy.
Yes!! The deep dive would be awesome, especially if you keep including some of those less expensive options please!
Excellent work! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Amazing bro!!!!!
I love your work.
Excellent job!
Thanks for the tips!
Hella cool bro!
Wow. That's a pro setup for sure and your videos show in quality!
VERY GOOD JOB !
Very inspiring thanks
Nice, this is the one I have been waiting for.
Love your work.
This is fascinating!
Great work
Technology at the service of art ...Superb!👍
wow great job
Great advice and presentation! Thanks very much for this!
This is a great video! Would like to see more of the behind the scenes style vids like this!
Yeah, more please!
Thanks for sharing, I've been loving your work. This might make me finally bite the bullet on the probe lens! :)
Would love to see more of this!
Amazing 👍👍👍
This is amazing
J'adore, bravo 👍
Amazing Job looks so good 🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🔥🙌🏻🙌🏻🖤🖤
Amazing setup and awesome work!
I appreciate it, I’m loving your repainting masks videos!!
@@AbandonedMiniatures Thanks!
Thanks for the great tips. I look forward to trying some out on my channel.
The things and the handmade effects and costumes are still way better than CGI's nowadays.. 😌
Thanks for your introduction to some very interesting technology. Would like to use some of your methodologies to photograph model train dioramas. We will stay tuned.
well done you deserve more viewers !
You have excellent insight! I really believe that the minatures is only part of the battle. I believe the rest relies on the camera equipment, the filtering, the lighting and acceptable angles.
pretty cool!
Thank you for this video. it helps al lot for my next steps. :-)
very cool
Appreciate it!
Si mi pana lanzate con mas videos de este tipo están uffff super demasiados buenos...
Thank you for taking the time to share your craft and passion. Excellent info here! Cheers ~ Boomer.
Great vid! Please make more videos about your prod and post-prod process!
Would love to see you replicate the batcave from Batman 1989. 👍🏻
Thanks for this! I have been dreading even attempting to photograph some miniatures for a one time project. Now I am a bit more confident trying to use my phone instead of selling my first born to buy some equipment.........
Great :>
I've been wanting that lowa macro probe for a few years ever since it was released but could never justify the price vs how niche it is. I think you just sold me another lense lol
Hey im new to your channel and instantly fell in love with your art work dude. I would like to see a fallout or last of us style diorama keep up the videos makes me want to get back into my art side lol I used to edit videos all the time an make stop motion films
Nice!))
Amazing work! I want to say that placing your light further away will better emulate the sun's nearly parallel rays coming thru the window...but between the fact that so many shows and films are lit similarly (of course on larger scale) and the diverging beams being a stylistic choice.. Idk if it's worthwhile advice 🤔🤷♂️
Regardless, very inspiring work
Woah.
This vídeo was asome
Thank you!
Amezing
This...IS SO COOL
Thanks man!! Been watching your channel personally for a while 🤘
nice
Es muy loco y súper realistas
I've got the STIGA table - now I just need the rest :P
Thank you for that awesome info🤘🏻 I would love to know where you bought that nice lamp behind you. That’s the perfect kind of lamp I need 😊
It’s the Phive LED Task Light, link is in the description!
@@AbandonedMiniatures yay thank you!!
Super cool! What is the spray can you use for the smoke effect?
So amazing, looks so good
I would love to see your take on the Spencer mansion from resident evil 1 games
impressive, just like a scene from resident evil 7: biohazard
supper brother
Cool. Can you speak to the advantages/joy of filming dioramas vs. say creating a 3D digital world? I'm considering going the diorama path with a project
Your channel is Amazing! 👍🤩 One question... do you offer your models for sale?
Nice video! What are you using to create the fog? Thx u
Super helpful video! I appreciate you taking the time to talk about beginners and effects you can create with limited resources.
Question; what video editing software do you use to process your raw footage to what we see here on your channel? Thanks in advance!
Davinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere
@@AbandonedMiniatures Thanks for the reply! Did you self train on these softwares? Which is the best for beginners in your opinion?
just waw
Wow that's incredible work!! Do you have one where you've done the sets from the movie "The thing" John Carpenter's movie
It looks like entrance of the house from resident evil 7
Yeah, there IS difference between professional and phone camera. Phone's shoot looks a bit more simple and not so natural, but it's still great, if diorama itself made very well.
Thank you for behind the scenes, in your videos we see how much work to make a scene, but now we can see another meaning part of creation your wonderful result. It's very interesting! But we don't know first part of this journey. Do you making sketches or some sort of blueprints or anything else?
Amazing work. Besides a 3D printer, what types of material do you use to build your miniatures? And what stores can you get these materials from?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, where did you buy the power desk stand,? I didn't see that in the description, thanks!
Hi sir I'm a new subscriber..your video is amazing.. what do you call the spray that you use as fog effect on this video?thank you
Some equipment is essential to get a specialty shot. But a lot of the time expensive equipment is only designed to make things easier. So if you do a certain thing a lot, then go buy that piece of equipment that will take the pain out of it. But other than that their are very few pieces of video gear that I would class as ESSENTIAL.
What did you use for the 200D modifier? To make the light narrow
Nice work sir. Sir can i shoot miniature diorama with 24 fps
Could you potentially piece all of these dioramas together creating the entire house in R.E.7?
What app did u use for the iphone shot
Hello! What kind of spray bottle did you use to achieve that god rays effect?
The shorter depth of field of the probe lens on such a large sensor camera gives it away that the scene is a miniature. If you filmed a full-sized table in a room, the background wouldn't be thrown that much out of focus, even if you shot wide open, which you never would do for that kind of shot anyway. So the cell phone camera has a more realistic DOF. Of course the cell phone has annoying sharpening artifacts and is rendering more detail (which can be good or bad), since it's all in focus.
