This is what happens when Peter is gone from the office for too long 😂
at least you didn't decorated "his" side of the share space ... lol
Can tell by your face, like a kid without a playing friend. Just bored. Great video. Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
Matti Haapoja You are amazing and a mind reader 🍾 Thank you for making this! I was on Skillshare looking for this exact video topic the other day! 🤩
serously it's so funny, i just saw pete with someone else. LOL
Matti Haapoja 😂😂😂
I think of a video like a 5 paragraph essay. Thesis is my intro (what i'm going to do in the video) and my 3 paragraphs are my arguments and proof of arguments and my 5th is conclusion.
New music per paragraph to keep the flow moving and ya, bob's your uncle. 15 years working as an editor for long/short documentary film/scripted tv has allowed me to break it down.
Of course this isn't the rule as it is a guideline. For me the final re-write is in the edit and no amount of planning can prepare me for every scenario...but that's how ideas evolve and often that spontaneous epiphany is all you need to really elevate your video but ultimately what am I trying to say and how will my audience find value. Period. Story is the hardest part of any video, you can be technically perfect but narratively imperfect and it won't track.
I will also speak to doing some long and short form documentaries that the original "plan" is often blown apart when you get in the field and realize something isn't working as you thought. Or be agile enough during the editing to realize your thesis is weak and need to revise it. It's an evolutionary process that time in the edit will reveal. I speak to this from personal experience.
It's one of the biggest things doc directors discover early on is how everything they had planned will be blown apart, the magic comes from picking up the pieces.
Depends on the format though. I agree planning is necessary absolutely but you can't plan all of it and need to leave room for a possible revelation that elevates the narrative.
Yep the process is different for everyone but one thing is true is that it’s a lot of hard work and just dealing with what happens 🙌🏻
Absolutely. Video making isn't easy.
Mark Holtze this is incredibly insightful! Thanks for sharing your fresh perspective.
Thanks Oscar, happy to help mate. I wouldn't call it fresh though, seeing as I've been doing it for at least 15 years. But thanks for making me feel young mate. :)
Agree with you so much. My first independent shoot did not turn out how I planned it at all. I wrote such a detailed plan, from angles to storyline. When I was shooting I knew my idea of this video was far fetched. Once I started to edit, I obviously realized how hard it is to get the result I had in my head. I ended up getting a video that I liked much more than my initial plan, but I still wished I could been more 'prepared'.
I still have very little experience and I want to grow so much more. But I feel like I can learn more with people surrounding me on a shoot. Just out of interest, do you shoot solo or in a small/big crew?
If anyone reading this is from Cape Town (Or anywhere in SA), let's team up and learn from eachother!
Ok enough with the rant :)
I love this video. I’ve watched it over and over and have to admit, out of all of your videos, this may be my favorite. I struggle with planning, over-planning, not having a plan and talking to the camera too much (which leads to never ending edits), and simply planning paralysis.
I burned out and stopped making videos because I never planned, I was consumed by thinking my gear sucked, and I just have not put in the work to do it better. It’s not my gear, it’s me, it’s lack of a plan, and thinking sub counts matter when I know story is best.
This video is a breath of fresh air and is helping me rethink my channel.
Thanks, Matti.
Hey Matti, I’ve been subbed to you for a few weeks now along with Peter and I just want you guys to know the impact you have on people. You two really break things down to the basics, making it easy for all of us especially beginners.
Thanks dude! Love the support 😊 sometimes I think the videos I make are too simple. But a lot of the times that’s the best way to learn.
Glad to hear that you are learning, have a lovely day!
Brandon Parris I’m with you
I'm all aboard the "simple train." Love your content, Matti. I always appreciate videos like this, where something is broken down to the bare bones, I guess. Sometimes it can feel like creators - from varying topics - forget to share the beginning steps of things when they're teaching something, and jumping to step 5, if that makes sense.
Not to say you can't teach intermediate level or advanced things. Create what makes you happy, always. Reiterating, but I think I'm among many who like and appreciate "the simple" things as well. =)
We need more influencers making videos like this. Far too often, I see "filmmakers" making videos with no storyline. What's the point of that? Content is KING! Thanks Matti!
This was really helpful. I’ve been struggling with making my vlogs feel like a cohesive story. Going to try again. ❤️💯👍🏽
Keep Learning and growing, Have a lovely day!
I can feel your struggle, I am having the same issue as well. Feeling like my vlogs are everywhere >_
KristynAlexis yes same!
This is just the video I needed today. I struggle with the planning, I spent time, just this weekend, creating a storyboard template that I think will work for me. This video helps to refine as I learn to tell a better story. Thanks Matti
I'm still a new vlogger and had been struggling with creating videos. Your advice was really
helpful! Thank you!😊
Such GREAT CONTENT! Thank you!! Inspiration ✔️
hey matti, thanks for sharing your planning method! I find myself lacking a plan for my videos to often so I shall try your method for the next one :)
These are amazing tips Matti! Great to learn about your process!
Thanks guys! 😊
Always great to learn! Have a lovely day
I love your description of the 3 act play - I've always heard that the 2nd act introduces conflict, and the 3rd act resolves it. But not every video has conflict, so it's good to hear that the 3 act play still works, without the conflict.
I was feeling quite lost because I didn't know where to start. Thank you for this!
Amazing advice. I learned a lot, thanks 🙏🏾
Hey man, I am really a fan of your work. You make such a good tutorials with great tips. :D
Your coolest intro so far!!! That music makes a huge impact on (feeling) telling the story. Great video! Thanks Matti
Fantastic tips. You are absolutely right for each and every point.
Planning is so dang important.
And that is what we so often miss out on! 🤔🤔
🙄🙄🙄🙄
It's an important thing to keep learning and progressing, Have a lovely day!
Hi Matti excellent video..I’ve been racking my brains on how to start vlogging and how to capture people attention and you’ve made it so easy on how to plan etc...thanks man
My first year on youtube I never really planned a video much, my story telling sucked and it showed with my channels growth. BUT this second year is different, I'm concentrating the content to topics and keeping it short and to the point. Now its only been a week of this, so I'm yet to see the long term effects of this on my channel, BUT it feels like I'm making much better videos because they're more structured. THANKS MATTi
Thanks so much for doing this! This is amazing! Like exactly what I needed!! 😊🙌🏾
I like the lighting and colour correction, Planning is great topic, those who Fail to Plan - Plan to fail!
Thanks for the tips Matti.
We’ve just been on a trip to Paris & Rome and I had grand plans for my shots and what to capture but with the chaos of traveling to a new city and also unpredictable weather it makes you realize that you have to just make it work with the circumstances you find yourself in!
this is a fantastic, basically a guaranteed, low risk, approach to making watchable content. The idea of sharing valuable information (filmmaking tips) regardless of what you are actually doing (drone wars 🤣) is perfect. And then if you are sharing something that highly relates to what you end up doing then even better! thanks for sharing!
Exactly!
Have a lovely day!
DRONE WARZ!
Matti....I think that my BEST investment has been my CZcams Red subscription. Learning from you, Peter, Casey, Chris, Sara, Shonduras, and a HOST of others has been priceless. I feel like I have to be a "planner" when making CZcams content....now, to get to where life gets out of the way!!!
Only true Canadians will appreciate that blue menu sparkling water. So delicious.. seems you got Peter hooked on to the La Croix too 😂
I love these video makers making videos about how to make videos for video makers: That are in themselves great videos. 🤯
😂
This was super helpful!! I love your channel! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you so much for the tips. I'm going to use these in my next video. Thanks!
Making a three-act video about using three acts in your video... now that's meta
😂 glad you caught that
Absolutely! Have a lovely day
Another great video with great advice. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Always learning with your videos.
Thanks for your fantastic thoughts and ideas. Totally helped me to get my seminar into the right direction!
Always great to get some insight and "different ways of thinking", to get the bits together. Eventhough my seminar is about the process to be a creator, this was great help! :)
Matti, this is probably one of the most basic videos you've released to date, yet it's exactly what I needed. I've been trying to get into CZcams and have been starting to plan out some ideas. Your method is so straightforward but it's been a huge help in structuring my thoughts. Thanks for the tips!
Also some videos you just can’t plan. You just have to have the skill to obtain the shot when that cool moment does happen!
Wow! This topic would really help me as creator to plan my videos well, thanks matti.
Heck yea 🙌🏻
epic video matti really made me rethink my vids and how I do them! Currently busy with a vlog challenge on my channel for this week so gonna try and improve each video.
One problem I found with planning you never get the good impromptu stuff in your Vlog by planning ahead and its also hard when for example the video is not the main reason you traveled somewhere for example, but just a side thing you do. In cases like these I try to tape as much as I can and then try to get the story out of that.
Would love to see a video with best tips for shooting video outdoors. (When it’s not raining of course ☔️) Thanks.
i keep rewatching this. thank you.
Thank You Matti..
🙌🏻
One of the best videos of the channel. Thanks Matti!
Hahaha the face when the drone hits the camera!
You dropped this video just in time for my first day of filming. Now I am constantly thinking about the three part structure of a story while Im vlogging! Once I edit my footage together I hope I can form a halfway decent story
Planning is good and comes out in the end result.
All great advice - cheers Matti. Some good thinking points there
Thank you Matti, I needed this video!
hey matti....have to put this out there ...you have inspired me to creat content...thank you soo much
Thanks so much man 🙏🏻
Hey Matti! Could you make a tutorial on rendering settings, codecs and such in Premiere Pro?
So grateful for this one Matti! Thank you so much for sharing your process. It's often one of the biggest hurdles for me.
Love this. Thank you Matti.
Love your stuff Matti!!!!! Super inspirational!
New videos on Monday, make Monday’s better!
Yess 🙏🏻
Awesome suggestions and great motivation brother thank you so much!!!
Awesome, Matti. Precisely answered one of the questions I wanted to ask you. Thank you!
you guys make mondays better! thanks for your teachings!
Yay!
Like this one, The intro was great. Specially the little drone crashing into the lens...Your look!!! hahaha
This came at just the right time! I’m specifically taking a week off to spend more time planning videos.
I just discovered by mistake that you have a brother (Teppo Haapoja) doing vlogging ... I watched the channel and I really liked it! all the best!!
Personally....your most valuable video to date.
Its wild that you and peter were at Nelsons. I go there all the time, cliff jumping just down the road from where you were at
Great timing with this video! I improved by cinematic shots but i need to work on story telling now. Thanks for this video !
I am the only one that would like to see a screenshot of his plan? Just to give an idea how much Matti plans it out? I recognize the level of detail will vary depending on the person, but I think it would be helpful :)
Thank you Matti for the video. These tips really helped me better understanding the process. Can’t wait to apply them to my next video!
I've been trying to adapt this process, before I even watched this video, with my channel. It's difficult to create a story on "how to turn a pen" or "how to make a honey dipper". So far I think it's going fairly well... I've been growing my channel, extremely slow unfortunately, but it's growth and that's at least a plus. Still learning what I can, thank you for this Matti! Some great information to absorb and try to incorporate in my upcoming content.
About to travel to Colorado, so excited to use some of the concepts I've learned since I started watching your channel to capture the adventure. Glad to have a lesson on planning before-hand! Cheers :)
Great content as always, Matti!
Yay! Exactly what I was looking for and by who I was looking for it from! 😁✌
Wooow I am proud of you Matti. The sub's are @377K let's continue. You inspire me.
🙌🏻 thanks dudeeee
Thanks Matti! Really cool to hear your process for creating your videos. One of the things that I try to do to keep myself organized is to create a detailed shot list. I don’t always follow the shot list perfectly but having a shot list that I create in Google Keep that I have on my phone to look at during the shoot is extremely beneficial for me. Thanks again for all the help and keep it up!
Great insight and information. Maintaining a legitimate storyline definitely seems to be a rather difficult task... without a plan. Thanks for the tips ✌️
Yea wayyy harder without a plan!
This is the best intro I have seen on CZcams in a long time. So much so that I paused the video and showed my wife. She liked it too! Choice of music is perfect. Keep it up Matti!
this video was super helpful! I always thought my story of my video was what i was doing in the video i never really planned it out when i thought i was
This is super informative and helpful! I feel like there was a sudden increase in quality in my videos after discovering your channel (now there is a gradual improvement). Still a ways to go, but thanks for the information and inspiration!!
So good!
It is all about stories!
For sureeee
Hahaha every time you say "PROCESS" I literally lol
Good job Matti!
Loving your new style Matti, keep up your good work 😊
Me too
Thanks always trying to improve things 😊
Love the angle Matti!
Matti can you please make a video on how to make music videos and tips and tricks for it, because I'm a musician and I want to improve my quality a lot.
Thank you for this! Your storytelling videos are helping us a lot!
I love watching your video's and I'm really new to making cinematic videos.
Really loved this video, Man. Your use of extra footage placement is always so spot on and there is always a point to your content, making it meaningful. As always, 10/10
Thanks Matti. Always inspirational 📹 Good work 😀
Thanks for the tips Matti.👍🏼
Keep learning and progressing, Have a lovely day!
Matti just like a doge lying on the windowsill and waiting for its master back in the intro lol
As always Matti, you're the best!!! Thinking about coming to LA at all??
Thank you SO MUCH for this video 🙂
Such awesome advice, so many times i find myself going through the footage on the timeline trying to find the story. Need to get serious about planning! Thanks Matti
Great tips! Love videos like this! Only the best from the best! 📸❤️
Keep learning and growing Ginny! Have a lovely day!
Thanks Matti. Good reminders for every video...I'm still working on building my stories so appreciate the reminders.
Storyboarding is the biggest part of video making, Have a lovely day!
Underrated video Matti, watching it for the second time after a year. Love from India
I really enjoyed this video. I think that if you had shot your talent shots on a green screen you could have produced a video with multiple locations. Great food for thought...and action!
Thank you for this video and ideas!
Great beginning )
😊
This is amazing, if only it was a week earlier.
I needed this for the past weekend!
Much appreciated.
Thank you Matti!
Thanks so much! I'm just getting started with vlogging and I think this is one of the most useful tips on storytelling I've seen so far.
I went out to see the Paavo Nurmi Games the other day. I had some idea of what I was going to shoot and talk about and also how I would preferably have it in the final vlog, but when the day was over, I realized that I never made a plan how to make the story in my head to be captured. And now I'm stuck thinking how I could possibly make the story complete without being able to go back to last Tuesday...
However, thanks again! Also, if you have any extra time, olisin todella kiitollinen jos voisit katsoo mun videon loukkaantuneen pikajuoksijan treeniviikosta ja antaa palautetta lyhyesti. Oon päässyt kyllä hyvään alkuun ja mulla on ajatusta siitä, kuinka jatkaa eteenpäin, mutta asioita osaavan palaute olis tarpeen. Ja ei huolta, äänentasot on kohdallaan ja oon kuvannut edittiä varten jne, eli vaikka se onkin vasta toka vlogi niin kyllä pitäis silmät ja korvat kestää! :D
I love the breaking down of your process. What's your plan for correcting the audio in the office? It took a fair bit of Auralex to correct my little studio!
This is the next level for me; getting better at storytelling. Thank you for this very helpful video!
Great to learn about your process, Matti! Thanks a lot! So, one last tip for us: How do you plan your B-ROLL in the intros, mid and outros? Can you give here some rule of thumbs to make good B-ROLLS? Some video link? thaaaaaaaaaanks!
You should do a behind the scenes with Peter of making a vlog episode from start to finish. Getting angles and all that just showing hows yous do it in raw instead of just telling people it.
i love that i can go back and see all the video's that got mee hooked on you and peter :D
the 2 of you have made so much good content. Really looking forward to see what the future will bring from the new office
