Yeah it’s a damn shame, I used to watch freddiew’s videos all the time back in the early 2010’s but since the medium of what Freddie is doing is so widespread nowadays, his content hardly matters anymore. If maybe Freddie evolved his content a little bit more, maybe he could’ve hung around a little longer.

@forkayebee3831
@forkayebee3831 4 года назад
@@chrichtonsworld1 Not really, it's a completely different ball game. As he points out the amount of people and skill you need to make a movie doesn't just exist everywhere. It's like finding out someone is an engineer, they are never just an engineer but an engineer in something. This is the same with film making, just because you can make good youtube content doesn't mean you can make good film, and vice versa. They are two entirely different skill sets and there is a reason why so many indie movies fail or don't get funded. Hollywood also has better unions in place for film making, that is sorta important for this industry as well and the successful indies you do see, are from insanely talented and very lucky people. One other thing, directing yourself or a few friends in youtube is completely different from an entire set worth of people needed in film making, there is a reason there are so many people in movie ending credits and every last one of them is needed for film making. It's a beast and really to have the infrastructure to feed that beast, not many places can do it and many of the skills needed you never get from youtube. Again, I may be an aerospace engineer but I know fuck all about structural engineering. The world and jobs and what not are complex entities adn very rarely do specialty skill sets translate. Hence why all actors who want to direct usually cant and all directors who want to act suck. The ones we remember and think of are the one out of a million who succeed.

That you guys dont have the same, or even more influence on youtube, is so sad... now mainstream media and vloggers like Jake paul and old Viners hs taken over the content on youtube.

Don't be sad. They're angry that traditional media doesn't allow for them, but fail to acknowledge that traditional media is on its way out. What's happening to television now will happen to movies in 15 years, and EVERYONE will be doing what FreddieW did, it'll be like a switch that's flipped. What's being yearned for here is establishment and structure, and to be a part of the status-quo instead of a trendsetter, which is sensible and I understand it. The current shift we're seeing - towards establishment and vlogging over the parts of youtube that were originally great - is the last dying breath of that status quo attempting to adapt to the trend that FW and CD established, and the thing is, it's not working. The views these companies bring in on youtube in no way make up for the views they lost from cord-cutters; what's more, if the trend continues, it's simply fertile ground for the NEXT youtube to come and take the old one's place.

This statement becomes more truthful with every year that passes. RU-vid has been rewarding creators more and more for posting every day for years now, and posting every single day just isn't doable for channels that are trying to break boundaries and impress people with every single video. A couple of months ago creators needed to have 4000 hours of watch time to monetize their channels, now it's 4000 in the last 30 days. That's an insane amount of hours for a smaller channel, if you're not posting pretty much every single day good luck getting that.

I have worked in Hollywood for big TV shows and movies for 4 years now as a assistant camera and camera operator. Everything he's saying is spot on, it's all about money. That's what made VGHS so special is that they raised money to produce the show, with no end game of profiting off the show which in turn caused a product where they valued creativity. They just took the money they had and made the best possible production and that's also why indie movies are so good as well, they aren't boxed in by the stereotypical story structures because they are more focused on creativity and not making money by trying to appeal to the widest possible audience. I am now jaded about the film industry myself, and they messed up by not welcoming Freddie with open arms because he's a genius & a great human that crew's would love to work for.

That’s why I didn’t really watch their videos too much.

2:00 SO TRUE. I tried doing a small film back in college here in ND I was all excited for it and had a few friends who seemed interested in doing it with me. It wasn't gonna be very long like 15-30 minutes tops we had lots of ideas. I scheduled a lot of stuff put a lot of stuff together. Got a place to film it, even got a cameraman or two to help for free (which was very nice of them). Then tried to find just some extras in the background even if they were just sitting there studying or working on homework. Didn't really find anyone, then luckily like a week before found 2 that were gonna be nearby anyways and were okay with being filmed. Then my one friend kinda just backed out without telling me or he did tell me. The day of the shoot the other friend was no where to be found, called him up and he was told "im on my way" waited a bit was down to just me, and one of my friends. Wanted 4 people, needed like 3 at least. Luckily a guy I knew was around and was willing to be in it which was great. In the end the one cameraman (who was kinda new to it) forgot to take the protective clear plastic off the lens of the one camera and so half the footage was slightly blurry :( I had to do almost everything and if I could have I would have done everything but sometimes you need others to do stuff cause you can't do everything all at once and when relying on people it can make problems. At the end of the shoot the one friend finally showed up and it was like "well you missed it cause you were late" but he didn't seem to care. -_- Maybe if I had money to give to people to work for me it would have been slightly better but making movies in places other then California just doesn't work to well unless your okay with doing it all alone without extras or other actors etc. That's one of the major factors that has been deterring me from doing videos like I want cause im just me and I can only rely on myself but it's hard to film something that requires some actors and your just you and operating the camera and lighting etc. At least with the editing of that film I made I had all the control of where I wanted the music, where I wanted cuts etc.

@Argentfan
@Argentfan 5 лет назад
That's not how VFX works. High quality VFX takes astronomical amounts of time to put together. A cheap 10 second clip might take an hour to put together. A high end 10 second clip might take a week. Movies don't just give you more money because it is a better quality. They pay you to sit there and work on that same 10 seconds for far longer. He likely wants to go Hollywood because it allows him to do more. He gets bigger budgets, he gets better actors, he gets better crew, everything is bigger and better. RU-vid, Hulu, and web in general is bottom dollar. You have to make something great out of nothing. Sometimes that works out big time, but in most cases it just turns into some forgettable drivel. It is easier to make a masterpiece if you have the right tools.

And the vast majority of shows on Netflix are made by separate production companies and sold to Netflix. Nearly all of those companies are in LA, with a few in New York. Even most of the British and Canadian shows have significant operations in Los Angeles. If you want to produce a movie or TV show and get a good crew and good actors you need to work in either LA or New York, with Chicago being a distant third. Freddie's bigger problem is that he doesn't really have anything worth buying. He can make fun VFX skits, but his work on longer form, story-based entertainment is not good. The acting, writing and general plot of stuff like VGHS is terrible. No producer would look at that and think he would make a good director. His low budget VFX skills aren't really worth anything if he wants to be a director, as the VFX are going to be done by an actual VFX/compositing house.

I get that he needs to keep moving and trying, of course he's a human trying to make his way. I even get fans willing him on. But it's not a crime he never broke through, it's not evidence that the world is aligned against talent. It's a reminder that making stuff people like is super difficult and involves and element of luck, and that we should be happy that this man captured that for any instance in our lives.

Here’s the thing: there’s more traditional content now than ever before with Netflix, Hulu, Disney +, HBO Max, Peacock, Qubi, etc. If these guys want the freedom to be funded for their own projects, they need to pay their dues in traditional media. Direct a show for the Disney channel, then Freeform, then CBS, then Netflix. Keep striving for bigger budgets. Once you direct one tentpole series ($8m+ episodic budget) you will be able to direct more. Then you can pitch yourself as the director of Stranger Things rather than Videogame High School and you can get financing for your solo film. You aren’t going to be able to jump the line with RU-vid credits but you can get your foot in the door and then pay your dues for a few years. If you want it, you can get it.

My experience as a filmmaker, even if from a different country (Italy): I started with a self-produced short, which went around festivals winning many prizes and that took me to make a movie released by 20th Century Fox (Tempo di Reazione). Only later I opened a RU-vid channel to be able to work on personal projects with freedom. Our "Innumerevoli Ombre" web-series has won prizes around the world (New York, Los Angeles, Rome) and that has allowed us to do something else. Freddie (and Sam and Niko) need to do the opposite journey: now that they have this experience and strength deriving from their series on the web, they need to do a short self-produced to take around at festivals and with which to look for a contract for a film.

Here's the thing though, you can still make the stuff your RU-vid fans like while also doing more traditional shorts that you can send out to festivals to win awards.

You can still put up BTS stuff on your channel to keep people engaged with your channel while working on these projects to garner acclaim in the industry, but you don't. You don't need to focus on a feature think smaller do shorts that are specifically designed for festivals. Corridor Digitals short "ROT" would have been perfect for festivals instead it was just released on RU-vid.

Content on the main Corridor channel is few and far between, so the majority of content is coming from the crew channel so again keep pumping content there out especially with BTS for shorts going into festivals and after the festival run you release it on RU-vid. Content on their main channel (which is now Crew since it's the only channel with consistency) won't be affected and on the original channel you'll hopefully have awards to show in the thumbnails of the new shorts.

As for mediums, it's also that audiences split/shifted to youtube because of the different content. If TV shows would have adopted this style earlier the cultural difference between the platforms might've been less. That's all speculation ofcourse, but you see A LOT (too many i.m.o.)

they don't like the competition. Big budget movies, big budget movie stars, a focus on international markets rather than domestic, a tendency towards SJW stories/characters are killing the movie industry right now
