Beginner with $100,000 FILM Gear vs PRO with $1000 Camera 

I THINK SO TO A PRODUCTION IS NOT ONE THING

Idk I want to have someone edit one of my videos just to see what another editor could do with my work

@@bandamountcinematics what kind of stuff are you shooting

@@kitten-whisperer NO. HE THINKS SO. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO MAKE HIM RELAX

@David Pasion lol calm down reeetard.

Agreed going back to basics.

Well I think it is the opposite.

Definitely. Same can be said with producing music. I have been producing music for a few years and while still working with minimal equipment I have learned to make my productions sound pretty professional (for what I'm working with that is).

It's important to have good gear, but just as important to know how (and when) to use it. I'm a bit of a newb to video, but a pro with audio.

I like this unique photographer a lot. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6XGETo4YxM4.html

I am photographer, and a rule of thumb I use is that I don’t upgrade my gear just because I want to, but if I literally cannot get the shot or effect I am trying to get without upgrades or peripherals. I grow with my gear. Same applies to videography I think 😊

@@keithbillings3649 Very good

Lightning is 80% of the look

Yep, I use my Sony r4 as a video camera on the gimbal and photo camera off 😳.

Cheap kits only limit the scenarios you can use. You can use even iPhone but then you have to avoid any even moderately high dynamic range scenarios, you cannot separate background from the subject with focus. Using a small camera (or cheap kit lens) basically forces your aperture pretty small all the time in addition to poor dynamic range. (iPhones and other cheap items do have "HDR" modes but those are more marketing tricks than actual usable mode.) When you design your camera angles and scenes with that in mind, the end result will look good despite the low quality camera. If you need to capture anything without lots of control over the scene, then you need lots of gear.

Or stripped-down TED talk.

hahaha I was thinking the same!

😂

Then go get in a boxing ring, dummy… this isn’t for the faint hearted

I totally agree!

But still i dont think we can get that good quality to compare to a pro mic....

@@sahilshah5408 I have $25 rechargeable lapel mic that is AWESOME. I am a musician and have been recording since the 80's. I have had many many good mics including SM7B , Nuemann TLM 102 and more.... But here's a sample.... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kVi3KBpjD_U.html I also had thyroid cancer and got my neck fused front and back with front plate removed. My vocal chords are held together by staples. Lost my high range but my lows are of thunder now..... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kVi3KBpjD_U.html But yeah proper mic placement can mean a LOT.

From recording local, loud club concerts for a while, I've found that as long as the mic/camera preamp combo can carry the full range of normal human hearing (which varies quite a bit by manufacturer & model, especially for high volume levels, although I've had the most consistent good results with Sonys), you can get shocking good audio *if* you put the necessary processing time in. But that can be pretty time consuming, so for more time sensitive projects, even the cheapest Zoom recorder might be more advisable.

@@melodymatters Yep I have a Zoom q2n and I LOVE IT. I also have a Zoom H2n but that does video too.

Agreed! I felt the same way about this. I was hoping they had a person on their team color grade everything for them to make it fair.

It’s s log … it’s because later you can put contrast in the editing

@@jaangraphy it's r3d raw not log

That was the point, if he was helped with everything, it wouldnt be a real comoetition for us to see that its not the gear, but the experience that matters first of all, except for sound. The point was to establish the difference to get educated and experienced first and foremost

Maybe the irony is that the beginner didn’t know how to use the equipment. He would have actually done better with the same basic camera. Almost like he was duped into making a bad film. A bit dubious.

@Quân Phạm Viết lạc rồi ạ 😅

Oh hello we meet again ;)

Yeah. Enthusiasm and passion is like a fuel🙇🏽‍♀️

interesting, i like this idea!

@@JakeWeisler yeah, I looked and I can’t find one on RU-vid. I’d do it myself but I just have a cheap camera and cheap lighting. Lolll

No he isn’t. He has a very long way to go compared to professional cinematographers in the movie industry, or even say BBC documentary videographers.

I agree, ultimately this video was about selling what a product can do. Since everyone has covered the video quality differences I'll cover the presented story. The beginner was more focused on a calm story for this product. I felt relaxed and this helped to focus that primary selling point. The pro had overall a nice looking and well placed set. However the pro sacrificed the story. I felt the speaker was the focus over the product. Between him seeming a little crazy and sharp audio spikes the whole presentation was just uncomfortable. If I was paying someone I would be highly upset someone tried to imply my product was for crazy people or unappealing. I'd be getting my money back... In conclusion, the beginner has mistakes easily fixed with more post processing to better serve what the client wanted to achieve, by selling the tree. While the pro had no way to fix his mistakes without a complete reshoot. For me the beginner was far more on brand objective and he did pretty good for going first while the pro watched for ideas on his turn next.

Agree. Beginners story would make someone want to purchase. Pro story was disturbing

@@geronimo5537 maybe because its just a fun content, so he wanna make somethink experimental and unique, when he go to a pro work, he's getting serious,

@@nurwacana then he failed all around if that is the case.

@@benryanredteal914 agreed. Pros story was confusing in my opinion. Beginner did well here.

I agree with you. I thought it was a good message in the first, but when you hear the comments of the other guy you pay attention to details you didn't know. But I thought Ivan colors weren't good, so this is why the second film was better to me.

I think beginner in this series means "someone that knows how to use a camera". If you would do this with a person that has no idea how a film set works, zero knowledge of lightning and natural light, it would just be a mess.
