  • A scene can have one of the most craziest balls to the wall action/story/dialogue imaginable, but if the lighting isn't there to match? It might all fall apart.

    Something I'd like to see improved in future videos is the audio quality. Getting a pop filter for your mic or even a new mic/adjust setting/speak further away can get rid of the "peaking" bits. That's when the input of the audio into the microphone is too high and it clips, making the sound really grating and hard to listen to. Some people don't even really notice it, but for others it makes the video almost unwatchable. It's kind of funny to me, and gives your videos a very workman like low-fi vibe, which I dig, but there are instances where I think it would be beneficial to go the more clean, professional route. Just my two cents because I love your content and I think you're doing really great things for the brickfilming community :)

      Thanks for the input! Audio levels are something I’ve definitely been neglecting when mixing and I kinda just place my mic wherever it’s convenient. Glad to hear it definitely sticks out for some people though because I’ve definitely taken the “if no one’s gonna point it out maybe it’s not that bad” approach 😦

    • @Edbound
      @Edbound  Před 2 lety +5

      They change around from time to time depending on the setting, but for the most part the stuff that stays the same on my Logitech is about 70-80% exposure (i think exposure is a hidden setting but I can adjust it on Dragonframe, Ghub and OBS Studio can also adjust it) and 0% gain (which I assume is the iso, but Dragonframe calls it gain for some reason. It’s really similar to exposure in how bright it makes the lights appear on camera.)
      Then for stuff like brightness, contrast and colour intensity I usually just have that around the 40-60% range, varying depending on the scene.
      White balance changes a lot too but keeping it around 50% is a safe bet for most settings, it makes it much easier to colour grade in post
