Thank you man!

Cool stuff, I like the pacing of showing multiple setups quickly instead of spending 10 minutes on one setup, there’s definitely a time and place for both but this was cool, keep it up man!

[@camnails]

Thanks man! I like to keep things simple if I can. These setups weren't very complex, so if I didn't keep it quick, I'd feel as if I was needlessly rambling.

Awesome work! “Old In House job..” have you started a different project or company?

[@camnails]

Thank you! Yes, my in-house job wasn’t a production company. They just wanted a team to create videos internally.
I left there just over a year ago after starting a production co. and freelancing as a dp/cam op
