Sean, my outdoors video footage has improved dramatically thanks to your tips. Seeing you walking around with your camera and gimbal has been - and still is - a huge lesson and inspiration.
In my experience, whenever my filming plan gets severely disrupted, I know something magic is about to happen. It's then that I get the best ideas. A few weeks ago I was filming in an unsafe location. No way I could use my gimbal due to the high theft rate. To be able to film, I put my iPhone in a waterproof pouch and walked around with it hanging from my neck. I suddenly came across an amazing waterfall and I simply went in the water with my gear. I now have footage of me below an awesome waterfall. I'd have been unable to do that if I hadn't swapped the gimbal for a waterproof pouch. Now I know that I always have to have both a gimbal and waterproof pouch at hand.
Thank you 🙏🏻 This video hit me hard, I’m pretty new in filmmaking “in the real world” but have been YouTubing and learning about filmmaking for many years.. So my ideas of how my final content should look and feel, always seems pretty far from what I export.. And it can just kill your motivation at times! I get good feedback on the videos I deliver, so I know I’m on the right path and I do also feel my skills growing, but my own expectations causes me to keep doubting. So this video really landed!!! Thanks for making me and others feel heard and to get the feeling of “not failing”… 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Ah this is awesome to hear. And the fact that you are still creating, posting and getting positive feedback is what counts! Keep going ;)
I've been a musician for the last 20 years, a novel writer for the last 15 years and just one year into filming music video / short film. Well, all I can say is that filming is really tough. Your mind has to be everywhere, it's a constant battle in some many areas. And sometimes I feel like doing it on my own is not the best idea. But despite my endless burn-out, it made me feel some of the greatest sensation in my life in this process hehe (just wanted to share my beginner's view with absolutly no hindsight haha)

Same
Ah that is awesome to hear and no doubt its tough, but some of the best things are ;)
Bro, thank you. That is so refreshing to hear. Your channel is one of the ones I wanted to look like when I started three years ago. It's so encouraging to hear this, I tend to beat myself up and not shoot because I can't reach my expectations. I know logically I should just keep shooting and I'll get better little by little, but emotionally it's rough. It hurts, and your advice really makes me feel like it's okay, and that I can't trust the process again.
Ah all of this is so awesome to hear. The fact that this could help you create more is awesome. Thanks so much for the support :)
Not comparing yourself to others is huge.. Learned this in my mid 20s when i was doing MMA and Ken Shamrock was my MMA hero...and i would constantly compare myself...comparing onself is guaranteed way to be let down and end up in a world of depression.
Also as a person who loves structure...film making is teaching me how not to get freaked out when stuff doesn't go like u have planned. In film making just expect nothing to go as planned....its like a person has to learn filmaking Judo...how to use that negative and try to turn it into a positive.
This is also helping in my personal life when stuff hits the fan.
Couldn't agree more with this, I also struggle with it but embracing it makes all the difference hey.
@seankitching I would like to see what the statistics are for creatives that suffer from depression. I know for me the winter months are hard...so I can't get out and hike...I sometimes will film random stuff and put it up on my channel...however a person has to be careful of doing that to much...because that not why people.are tuning in. But, at at the end of the day I make stuff for myself and throw it out there...if people watch it they watch it if they don't they don't. Rock on Sean!
*I've been making content on this platform for 10+years and everyone is different in what they want from their Channel, I'm doing much better now then say 5yrs ago now that I know Shutter speed and Apture and different lens for different situations so yeah I've come a long way from that and I'm still learning. No one knows everything, just those who know more then me cause of experience. Nice Video and a Much needed one*
Well said man. Nice to see noticeable progress :)
Thank you, Sean. Your videos are so inspiring. One thing I still struggle with is getting a lovely soft image that looks in focus but isn’t razor, digital sharp. You have the picture quality looking superb in your videos but when I try to emulate that look with filters or camera sharpness, it either looks out of focus or too sharp. I find hitting a happy medium quite difficult. Your videos are sharp but also, dead smooth!
Videos down at that level of the spectrum plus your usual ‘pro tips’ would help a lot of people and be refreshing for more experienced!!
Really great idea for something to share actually. I think its a combo of a few small things that add up. Lighting, a weak mist filter, lens and the grade is what I would put it down to.
If you see a video come out covering this, you know where I got the idea from ;)
Thank you Sean. It’s that smoothness but sharp looking picture that I’m so jealous of. My videos just look realistic! Yours look smooth and beautiful.
Another (basic) thing is slow frame rates and judder on pans/movement. I have slowly become a tripod/fixed camera man due to 24fps, frightened to move the camera because of the frame rate. (If I’m making a more serious kind of video) When vlogging or reviewing I just feel safer with high frame rates, but love the look of 24 when it’s not juddering. The judder thing has me sitting even in cinemas, looking for it. Not so bad there, but on a tv ….. yuk. I insert black frames in order to try to emulate a projector in an attempt to alleviate it! Feel enslaved by the frame rate …..
Nailed it totally fun !
So fun to watch 🤩
thanks you for this video. i guess understood all because i learning english but only thanks you men
Hey Sean,
Your videos are always on point and almost seem directed at me lol. Since I have started this is specifically something I have wondered about, because I sometimes feel like I should be farther, however I can see definite improvement from where I started with no skills and never having picked up a camera.
Thank you,
Yesterdays Tomorrow
Ah amazing haha, sounds like you are coming a long way from having known nothing. Glad the video could help :)
Much love from Sierra Leone….. all the way west Africa ❤❤❤
I’m learning here 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Ah awesome!
Happy New Years Sean...man love your content very helpful....thanks to you im learning alot🙏🙏🙏
You too! Glad you are getting value from the videos :)
After a year...then two...I'm very much changed; I'm not phased by anything Neil, Todd, or Ritchie say.
Now when CZcams sends me a note saying my probation period is running out and if I don't produce something at least mediocre in quality,....They will give my videos to the highway department to use as guardrails because nobody wants to get near them.
hahaha nice
I'm new to videography and I really hope you can help answer my question! This question is about b-rolls. Do you always shoot at 60 fps or 120 fps but use a 24 fps time-line just incase you want to speed ramp or get a slow motion clip that wasn't originally intended? I'm taking my first real go at a b-roll in a few days and was thinking of using 60/120 fps the whole time since it's going to be a short video with mostly just action shots and transitions.
Heya! Its a bit of a tricky one but I try and shoot in higher frames only when I think I will use those clips for slow mo. Its pretty hard to figure out before hand though and if I am creating some B roll section there a chance I could use any of the clips for slow mo so I will just film the whole thing in 120. But never talking or anything I know I wont slow down.
I appreciate the response, I did 120 fps because it's going to be like a minute long b-roll with off and on slow mo. Just to realize that I shot in 4k 120 and my computer cant handle that. Just last night I found out about proxys, what a life saver!

Hii bro i have been watching your videos from ling time now and I haven’t seen you were using tamron 28 75 for long time and now i think you were using sigma 24 70 and i am a wedding videographer/ partial photography too and i want a zoom lens for a one lens usage in more scenarios and i was thinking of purchasing sigma 24 70 but bit confused why should i buy 28 75 and same some money too and please help me with which to buy , which good be good investment?
Thanks for watching! I was shooting on the tamron but just wanted the slightly wider option of the 24 -70 on the sigma. Both are good lenses and I think the sigma is a little more expensive
हमारे पास cemra नही है sir
After two years I feel like those starting words described me :D Anyway, thanks again! Edit. Well, ok. I got some idea of things you talked in video, so maybe I'm doing ok
Yeah don't worry me too sometimes haha
@@seankitching all good! And peace from Finland!
Murphy’s Law is the only thing we can ever count on. LOL
everytime haha
