Dude for someone just starting out on CZcams, you have talent. Quality of the video editing and work, looked like someone with 500k subscribers at least. Can’t wait to see more!
Man, that’s so encouraging! I really appreciate the feedback and I’m excited to make more content because of comments like yours. Thnx!!
I concur. Excellent work
I thought the same thing! Oh! This dude knows his shit, knows how to film, knows how to explain AND knows how to produce great content. Keep it up my man. Those subs will come to what you deserve. But this is top notch already.
@@BartRunning You all are so encouraging… I really appreciate all of the positive feedback and kind words. I’m lucky to have such a supportive following this early- it’s really motivating!
More on the way soon… the next vid is in the works 🤘
@@squeekhobby4571 thank you!
I like how you locate the electrical box by place the laser lines to it and cut out. Great tip.
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback
That looks really nice & you did a good job
This is definitely how my bedroom is going to be. Love from the UK.👍
Thanks! You got this! 🤘🏼
Beautiful work. Looks amazing and you inspired me to do a,wall in a house we are currently renovating with this product and method.
Thanks
I appreciate the feedback and happy that I could inspire you in some way. Thanks for watching!
If we were from the same country, Ur gonna be my next Interior expert ... KEEP IT UP DUDE .... LOVE FROM INDIA 🇮🇳
Thanks so much, dude!
Absolutely great video. I came into the comment section to comment about the audio quality (which was a bit harsh imo) but then I realized that you are just getting started and was surprised at the overall quality of the video for such a new channel.
I appreciate the compliment, feedback, and understanding about just getting started- working towards resolving audio in the next video. Thanks!
Hey dude, the new video is up and I think I've resolved the audio, but let me know what you think!
I'd like to use the brick in an area of my basement. Thank you for the video, it got the gears turning.
Excellent tutorial!! Totally gave me the confidence to try this myself in my new condo! Thank you!
That’s such a great compliment. Thank you! Hope it turned out amazing!
You are SUPER talented! That looks amazing!!
Thanks for the compliment and for watching! :) Stay tuned for the final canopy bed build- turned out awesome!
Excellent job. Well done.👍
Great looking job .I done one at a show stand, it did look as nice as yours , it was white bricks and I had to put a mortar joint on the finger connector.
I “ done one”?
That looks fantastic. Nice job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow very nice the light look nice with the wall
Omg you're amazing! I'd love to be with a man that is capable of this!!! It looks so great!
Yeah you did that brother. Great job on the panels and the video editing.
Thanks brother! I appreciate the feedback
Love this idea very rustic and earthy it’s given me some great ideas to work with thanks 👍
Beyond Amazing !!! Keep up the Good Work.
Thanks a lot Saroj!!
I knew I wouldn’t be able to use this technique pretty early into the video, but I stuck around because 1. if I were not renting, I would follow this tutorial. This wall looks sooo beautiful. 2. the editing/quality of the video is so captivating 3. your voice is so calming to me for some reason 😂
It’s so cool that people are really feeling the work, editing and videography… I’ve been excited to do this for a while, so comments like yours make me glad that I did. ‘Thank you’ (in my calming voice) haha
Hey : ) New video is up, let me know what you think!
I love thiiiis...why doesn't my supplies store has such paneeeels!! Guess I'll try the old way...one by oooone :D
Thnx Andreja! Haha noooo! Don’t do it! Lol. Check my video description for some recommendations :)
Loved the music Bro!! Loved the demo!! I want to do this same thing to my new apt.
Thanks man! I really appreciate that… good luck on your project… let me know if you run into any issues.
you can have a like as that glitchy music is wicked, love the choice of audio. Nailed it
Thanks so much! You’re one of the few who commented with a like on the music haha… there’s been some haters!
Feed meeeeee!👌
your talent +
your cleverness +
your sharing with us all
= SUBSCRIBED, baby!!!😁👌
Thank you, good Sir.
Cheers!
Thanks for the sub and the compliments- nice of you!
Looks good and I can tell you put alot of effort into this video. The cinematic broom sweep at the end was a nice touch 🤣🙏
Hahaha! Thank you for recognizing my cinematic broom skills 🤣 the angles and videography honestly take me an equal amount of time if not more than the DIY builds lol. I care a lot about the artistic quality. Thanks for watching 🙏
@@SeizetheDIY oh trust me brother you're preaching to the choir here LOL.
A 2-hour project takes me about 5 hours when filming
@@SeizetheDIY the only thing I can say that you can improve on is the audio quality. Some sound deadening material or an upgraded mic really brings voice overs to the next level.
@@BuddysDIY thanks! The audio I’m definitely still trying to figure out. I’m going to break out my vocal mic for singing, compressor, aural enhancer and see if it makes a difference… I used a cheap mic for voice overs for this video but I guess I need to return to my roots lol
Any suggestions for mics etc would be greatly appreciated though.
@@SeizetheDIY I person use the yeti blue. My editing room/office has sound deadening material. The yeti is cheap and is decent enough for what I do. You can see the quality in my last car flip video. Not perfect but good Enough for our blue collar viewers for sure
This looks sick! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much! 🤘🏼
Dude. AWESOME job. I want a brick accent wall in my new house and had no idea panels were a thing. I was going to just buy brick and stack them.
Thanks man! Glad it helped... there's also another new alternative product that uses real brick veneer on sheets- check my video description.
Look into brick veneer - actual clay bricks but molded to be very thin. Still need to install one at a time like tile, mortar between after, but has a much more realistic look and feel after. :)
@@dchan3113 Actually the product called Brickwebb (in the vid description) has multiple bricks on sheets like backsplash tile... you just use adhesive and then go back and add mortar between each to make it look legit. I'm going to use that method next time around.
Bro I love this, keep up the really good work. You earned one more subscriber 🔥👍🏼
Thanks brother! I really appreciate that! More to come 🤘
Hey dude, the new video is up- let me know what you think!
Cool design, nice idea and good work! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you! Cheers!
Oh shiiiiiiit….. someone started making life-size D&D terrain mods/panels?!
Brilliant!! 🤣👍
haha 🤣
Hey there, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
Complete litt!! Keep grinding
Here I thought one would just throw the panel of bricks next to each other and call it a day. Great planning equals excellent results!
Thank you very much!
Excellent work. My congrats!
Thank you! I appreciate the compliment :)
Looks absolutely sick!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks so much! 🤘🏼
Looks nice that like it.bit because my cutting shoddy for some reason had used the wallpaper brick effect.liie have done in utility room and kitchen in grey brick effect with matching paint on rest of the walls and black tiled flooring.
Great video and absolutely beautiful work!
That’s so nice of you! I appreciate your feedback ☺️
The process was so cool
Thanks a ton! I love creative / planning / production processes and happy to hear it added something cool to the video, for you.
I really like that look!
Thanks and much appreciated… excited to post the 2nd part of this project soon!
Great job 👍
I'm sure it's not new, but what an genius way to use your laser levels. I'm getting two now.
Hey Jennifer! I’m sure it has to be fairly common too- I would hope so at least! haha. Honestly, it was just a random spontaneous hack I decided to try, but haven’t seen anyone use it on any other tutorials, so who knows! Regardless, glad you found it useful too. Thanks for watching :)
Great work! What is the brand and model of the laser level you used?
Amazing, awesome video! 🔥
Thanks 🤘
Got my sub dude, looks great, good pace and instruction.
Awesome, thanks so much!
Very very nice project there!
Thank you, man!
Very cool. I was looking for a product like this about 15-20 years ago … wanted to do an accent wall in the dining room. Ah well … nice to see that it exists now and that it actually can look really good. Nice job installing!
Sounds like you might’ve had the faux panel product idea first! Congrats on that innovative thinking 👌
Thanks for watching, I appreciate the compliments.
I added a new link in the video description for real brick veneers with backing sheets- easier installation and more authentic. You could use a lot of this tutorial for most of that product too.
Great video well done I'm considering doing this
Check out the newest ‘thin brick’ / ‘brickweb’ products- they’re really brick on a similar backing sheet.
Simply gorgeous!
Thnx! Much appreciated!
Quality work. Thank you.
Thanks Donna :)
A facilidade quando se tem as ferramentas e peças certas, pra eu fazer isso vou ter que fazer manualmente com molde e gastando muito tempo. Ficou muito bonito, parabéns.👏👏
Thank you 🤘
🤩Absolutely Marvelous! 💪
Thanks dude!
great video!! incredible look!!!
Thanks so much! Please also checkout the diy canopy bed video for the completed room.
New sub! great content and love your aesthetic! Ignore the haters it looks amazing!!
I appreciate that Kayshell! Thanks for subbing.
I guess there will always be haters, but it still surprises me that people choose to invest their time in insults as opposed to constructive criticism.
Ughhh...if only I wasn't a renter. This video is AMAZING!!
Thanks a ton! Hopefully it comes in handy one day or maybe your landlord wants an accent wall? 😁
I love it 🥰
I'll admit, this is some quality content. I hope you don't mind, trying to give a feedback, that you lower the volume of bgm when you're saying something. Other than that, the video is cool!
I'm a teen, so there's still a long way to go. But, I'll definitely try this out in the future.
Thanks a ton! I appreciate the constructive criticism- it’ll make the next videos better!
It’s taking me a bit to shift over from mixing metal songs where the music remains at a higher volume behind vocals, to a VO for video- so your feedback is spot on. 👌
Hey there, the new video is up and I think I've resolved the audio lol, but let me know what you think!
Good job man
This looks so good
Thank you!
Great work
Just watched all of the vids on your channel so far (all three at this point) and holy shit. Sorry for the language but genuinely so shocked that you’re at less than 5k. I actually had to real life double take when I read that. If CZcams is something you want to succeed at, you will most definitely excel. The video quality is great, the audio, editing, shots, light advertising for yourself that doesn’t feel forced or pushy, and very very informative yet also very digestible. All this to say, great job and I hope you continue making videos :) I’m sure these take quite a while to make, but I’m subbed now with notifications patiently waiting for the day (if it comes, no pressure though)
Also side note, I’d probably trust any product you endorsed, so if there’s any good brands in the creators comments *hint hint* could be very helpful for you in creating more fun projects in the future and just nice in general I’m sure :) Only good brands though no sweatshops or animal abuse and you’re golden. Thanks for the vid. Hope this isn’t pushy, just wanted to lend a kind word of support for a creator but by no means do you have to do anything other than what you’ve already done :)) Have a good one
Hi Dead Flower- cool name :) I really appreciate you taking the time to watch my vids and provide positive feedback! All the aspects you talked about (audio, editing, angles... etc) are definitely super important to me- the only downside is that my projects take 3x longer to complete because the video actually amounts to the most work (not the DIY).
I have more projects coming for sure... I'd love to do this for a living, but for now it's just something I do in my spare time (when I'm not working my day job lol) because I love it. Maybe one day!
I like the thought of promoting some brands that I love- thanks for the idea! I'll have to think about which ones are cool and have enough integrity to stand behind... and relate back to DIY. I need to continue designing my own apparel so I can pitch that more haha
Thanks again for the thoughtful comment. Take care :)
hey man the production value for 3k subs in insane, sure to kick off soon!
Thanks a lot man! I appreciate it the kinda words- there’s a lot more to come 🤘
Hey dude, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
Very nice!
Amazin !! one man !!
For a sec i thought that you have 2.98m of subscribers. This vid is really well made
Wow! Thanks a ton! It’s actually my first CZcams video, so that means a lot to me. Stay tuned- more on the way :)
Hey there, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
setup looks amazing. I need this!!! what type of lighting did you use? love the mix of industrial vs modern take. looks incredible
Thanks so much! I included links to some similar lighting in the video description- mine were the last in a clearance and painted black. Take care!
I love this so much.
Thanks so much!
Nice Work!!
Thanks brother 🤘
Looks cool I've been trying to persuade my missus to have this on a wall in my kitchen diner still working on her.
Clearly it's not your kitchen diner if you're not allowed to do what you want with it.
@@StallionFernando I take it your not married yet then, ok our kitchen diner, ahahahah.
I'm adding a new link to the video description for a new product that's available- real brick veneers on backing sheets. You should be able to use a lot of this tutorial to install those and it might be easier as there are no screws or brad nails needed. Hope that helps
Neat and clean 👌🏻
Thank you! I appreciate the positive feedback : )
WOW . Amazing Job
Thank you, my friend!
Damn bro, you snapped 👊😎🏡
Thanks bro 😎
Very Awesome bro!!
Thanks bro 🤘
That’s a badass look
Thanks my dude! 🤘
Hey there, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
Great video, I'm doing this.
Have fun!
Good job dude
Thanks!
Nice!
3:03 were you hitting the scotch while DIY-ing? 😅 great explanations by the way, and impressive visuals. 👏
thanks dude! Could be Coke on ice that melted. Lol
Great detailed video...like your attention to each of the minimal aspects of the process...want to ask information about the 'design software ' you used for this project .. Thanks in advance!
Hi and thanks for the positive feedback! I use Adobe Illustrator because I’m a graphic designer. The software has the capability of drawing simple lines to scale and also rendering based on your level of skill (as there’s no real preloaded textures and surfaces etc). The power of it for me is the ability to layout plans to scale and then create a mock-up visual for me to evaluate and plan the aesthetics of. It also can be used to output several file types for 3d, laser cutting, water-jetting, or cnc.
Soo much beautiful
Thank you ☺️
Awesome quality content my man, looks pretty tasty! Shame these panels are so expensive!
Would you be able to do a video on the 4 post bed you had in the design from the start?!
Hi and thanks for the compliments! I’m working on the bed and video as we speak! Excited to show you all when it’s done.
Hey dude! The 4 poster video is up! Check it out and let me know what you think!
Bonito vídeo
Saludos desde México 🇲🇽!!!
Thank you!
I was shocked when I noticed you only had 2.5k subs. I thought this was a bigger channel based on the production value. You sir have earned a sub. I'm considering this for my theater room build.
Wow thank you dude! That’s a big compliment 🤘 I just started a few months ago lol
A theater room would look great! Let me know how it goes. Take care
Hey dude, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
This is badass!
Thanks my friend!
Hey! The new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
Man you crushed it! 🤌🏻
Much appreciated dude! Thanks for watching 🤘🏼
Hey bro great job and production!
Which software did you use to figure it out?
Amazing wall!
Thank you dude! Much appreciated.
I’m a graphic designer by trade, so I use Adobe Illustrator because that’s what’s familiar to me, but it does allow you to draw everything to scale using vector art.
Looks like a great shag pad!!! Stay safe
🤣
The thumbnail showing me the room had me interested.
0:12 Now I"m even more interested.
Good job
Thanks
Good job & great video quality! Looks perfect! The mock-up in Adobe Illustrator had two wall pictures above the bed. A drum set and a Gretsch style guitar. Were these just examples or are these real and can be bought? Love the „technical drawing“ style.
Hi, thanks for the awesome compliments! In the next DIY canopy bed video, I’ll show you were to acquire those images (and others) for free and with a small amount of photoshop work, invert them to black and adjust to desired size. I’ll also add them to my site for sale after the video launches if that’s if interest to you. Let me know! Thanks for watching
Looking forward to it :)
The video is up and the patent art of the musical instruments is in there, but we will followup on the tutorial and sales of those. Let me know what you think of the video though! Thanks
Stunning
The brick wall blushed and said thank you lol
@@SeizetheDIY awe lol
Hey Yamili, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
Wow just wow 😯👏🏽
Thank you!
Hey there, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
Looks absolutely stunning, but i'm concerned about dust building up in all those gaps between the fake bricks right above the bed. Seems like a pain in the a** to keep clean?
Thanks a lot! I just use a brush attachment on the vacuum- cleans quickly… almost like another floor but on the wall haha
What is the product that you used? Awesome end result! You have way more patience than I do to really plan a project out right lol.
Hey Miranda- I used Barron Design’s ‘Faux Panels’. They’re pricey but the color, texture, and physical depth are nearly realistic. Thanks for the compliment!
I am a patient guy, but honestly- it’s a struggle haha I sometimes just want to start building halfway through planning but have to remind myself that it’ll result in some sort of unforeseen problems lol
I added a new link in the video description for real brick veneers with backing sheets- easier installation and more authentic. You could use a lot of this tutorial for most of that product too.
Dang, that was a thorough well planned thought out job. I am adding these to my metal garage. What would best to hang large neon signs and metal signs. I will have 1/2 plywood behind it. My fear is if I just screw into the plywood, I will have the width of the brick foam (unsupported) and this will weaken my support. If weight becomes and issue, I probably will just hand my larger heavy signs off the ceiling instead, and leave the lighter stuff for the walls.
Sounds really cool man! Hmmm... as far as hanging the brick panels and the neon signs- those sound like 2 different considerations. The brick panels can literally be glued to drywall with the adhesive listed in the video description and then screwed in here and there (into the plywood would probably be fine), but hanging the large heavy neon signs might require something more substantial behind both the plywood and the brick panels. I'd hate to advise on that and have it fail you, but don't rely on the brick panels for any structural integrity to hold heavy objects- I used the studs for that behind the panels and the drywall.
One thought which IDK is viable or not: is there a way to frame-in some studs between the metal framing behind the plywood? That way you could hang your signs on the wall still
looks epic
Thank you dude!
Hey dude, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
so cool
Thanks!
good work bro
Thanks my dude
This DIY has the look of Adam Jensen apartment from Deus Ex Human Revolution and Mankind Divided. Great job 👍🏼
Thank so much dude! Love those references you dropped 👌
Hey Juan, Check the newest video on the DIY Industrial canopy bed and let me know what you think!
Dude I love these brick panels and we’re can I buy them please? also you did an amazing job and just got another follower 👍🏼
Thanks man! The link is in the video's description when you expand it. There's also another suggestions there to use the new brickwebb product that's a real brick veneer instead but with the same installation method minus screws and brad nails.
⚠️ Please read before commenting ⚠️
Hello and thanks for stopping by to watch my 1st vid on CZcams 🎥 🔨
I hope it helps with some aspect of a faux brick wall installation using faux panels or planning for a master bedroom renovation.
🎤 Many have commented on the audio and voice over- I’m definitely still new to VO’s- recording and mixing levels, but will be trying some new equipment and processing in the upcoming DIY’s.
🧱 Some have commented that brick looks fake. It looks real in-person, and planned to do some whitewashing/distressing to add more authenticity… but I would still recommend a new product (see links in vid description) that uses real brick veneers on fiberglass backing sheets which are installed only with adhesive. That will provide authenticity at the same cost as the panels I used a few years ago in this video.
💡 Links for similar sconces/lights can also be found in vid description.
🤷🏻♂️ I received some random remarks from a few viewers who had a problem with my boots, skinny jeans, tattoos and the idea that I stay in shape. I’m not sure what to do with that… turtlenecks and sandals aren’t my thing lol.
🤬 Some have left what they considered to be ‘criticism’ which only amounted insults and condescending remarks and were triggered when I labeled them ‘haters’ lol. Humility, collaboration, and kindness are important to me so I’m not sure where that comes from… one only has to read the comments here to see that I appreciate constructive criticism. But, I won’t refrain from sarcastic wit to laugh at the expense of jerks who publicly open themselves up to acting ridiculous.
🥃 Others have asked about whisky being in a few clips- I don’t make any claim that it is or isn’t and don’t suggest alcohol while working with tools. I consider my filmmaking an art, and invest 3x more time than the build itself just to shoot from interesting angles and position props like the glass. This is not reality tv lol.
🤜💥🤛 Please enjoy the video and let me know how we can collaborate more. The canopy bed is almost finished and video coming soon! 🤘
It looks absolutely gorgeous ! Looks like real brick 🧱 Great job !!
Thanks so much! I appreciate it ☺️
I added a new link in the video description for real brick veneers with backing sheets- easier installation and more authentic. You could use a lot of this tutorial for most of that product too.
@@SeizetheDIY but what type of material is it? It really looks like real brick
It's a high density foam- polyurethane from what I remember... the manufacturer probably has those details on their site though.
Straight Beast
🙏
Really, this is your first video? Ok i am a subscriber now. Can't wait to see whats next.
It is! Thanks a ton for the support and the compliment. Much more to come!
Hey Evgeni, the new video for the Industrial Canopy Bed is up- let me know what you think!
@@SeizetheDIY it's great. I like how you edit the video and wath you build. And your stile. You have to post more.
