    Your energy and your passion really come through in your delivery. You took a complex subject, and broke it down into very simple steps, and gave excellent examples in the form of visual aids. Absolutely excellently done my guy. You’ve earned a new subscriber and viewer in me! 🙌🏽 🤝

    1. Cinematic Composition: Shots reminiscent of beautiful shots seen in cinema
    2. Cinematic Look: High Contrast, Teal & Orange grade
    Essentials: Subject, Scenario, Gear, Color Grading
    Subject --> Storytelling: Makes the image more captivating - mysterious figures
    Scenario --> Environment - volumetric lighting (interaction between light and air/dirt/etc. --> texture), rays - Shoot into the light!
    Gear --> Fast prime lens, low light performance (shooting at dusk, dawn or even night time)

  • @daviday87
    @daviday87 Před 2 lety +1

    Love your insights. Straightforwrad and honest about the necessity of some gear to achieve certain looks. I used to struggle with my old APS-C & slow lens thinking it was me, and when I found awesome deals for a used EOS R and a used 50mm 1.2 nearby, it totally changed my results with similar techniques. Looking forward to following your journey on here. Subscribed

    Billydee is the GOAT when it comes to making street photos cinematic....been following him for awhile so I find it's so cool you mentioned him.

  • @SourPlanet
    @SourPlanet Před 2 lety +7

    Awesome. Super helpful for people just getting up and running.
    Don't forget composition! Cinematic shots in their original context (re: movies) rely on particular conventions tied to motion. Understanding the movement of cameras and subjects in a cinematic scope will help "dial in" the moment which needs to be captured as a static image- the moment which will convey the motion of a full shot, distilled down to a singular moment. Likewise, apply the same logic to your subject if that aspect is under your control- something you did get into in the video, of course.
    Nice work 🔥🔥
