NF works very hard on his music videos, when you take the NF journey from the beginning he is constantly referring to future songs or videos and even refers to his music videos in his song The Search saying “I don’t know if I’m making movies or music videos” highly recommend taking the NF journey from the beginning and if you do just a warning that his song “How Could You Leave Us” is very deep, emotional, and real. ❤
Yeah he works hard for every one of them, every song with video are perfect cuz of his ocd, he have mentioned it being issue for multiple times and also he does not do music for others either, it's his outlet and he have said it multiple times too. His music just mesmerizes and empathizes people, lets them relate on things that they are afraid to talk about it or seek help for their own issues. I'm def a fan for life and first ever song from him was therapy session that i heard, found me on my lowest moment of depression and was big part of carrying me through so much of healing process from traumas and deep depression, i was on edge constantly and closest ever of ending it night before, only reason why i'm still here is memory of me and my mom when i was around 6 years old and she hugged me and told how much she loves me, that memory played on repeat until my panic attack ended and dropped knife from my hand, i still have little scar on my arm middle of vein where tip of the knife was resting ready to cut on arm length. That was also first step towars my healing as i called to my mother and literally cried for first 15 mins before i got to a word out of my mouth. That song found me on next day.
Yea it's a therapy session for him to work on his thoughts and bring it into live. Showing the miss-stands of our society and why we ain't care about us and others his meanings just on a different lvl so it u able to rethink ya own thoughts to find new odds and point of views u understand NF😂
Not only are you taking the time to break music videos down, you actually respond to your comments. Not a lot of reactors or such do that. Thank you for your time. It means a lot to us NF fans. You've got a sub here buddy!
PLEASE PLEASE do more NF! You’ll be tapping into a large & passionate group of people who love to see others appreciate their artist & bring a unique perspective as you do. Maybe try NF “Story” next.
I took a film class in college that made me learn and look for all the camera/lighting techniques in the movies we'd have to watch. Now I can't watch anything without seeing every different angle/lighting/sound technique that they use and knowing why they used it. Same goes for NF and his music videos; everything is so carefully thought out and put together and I LOVE it. I'm so glad your video popped up on my feed, because you are the kind of person I'd love to watch react to more of his videos, or any other video/movie for that matter. It is cool to hear you explain things from a professional standpoint, it's bringing back everything I learned a few years back. Can't wait to see what else you react to!
I now have a greater appreciation for filmmaking and filmmakers with the contribution the give to a song like this. Thanks for educating us here. You have a new sub. Keep it going. More NF please.
As you’re going through these NF videos, all the stunts he pulls in the videos. (On top/in moving vehicles, body thudding to the ground … etc. all him. Insanely passionate and creative guy willing to take crazy risk for creating what he love which makes him even more endearing.
I have watched both of your NF reactions and love them. I feel smarter after watching them. Or at least more educated. Your breakdowns show you truly know what is being done from a filming perspective. You will like Story, Let You Down and The Search. Impressive filming in all 3 videos. “Why” is another good one. More simple but very effective story told from the video.
i 100% agree, i love reactions of people who are either extremely well versed in subjects that im not but are vital to the greater depth of a song/movie or w.e else.
Can we talk about the camera guy holding the rig walking backwards with the cars flying past 😳🤯. Crazy enough for NF to do it walking forward and being able to see the cars. This camera guy has to have total faith in the stunt drivers and make sure he holds his line perfectly all while filming the perfect shot.
Literally anything NF does is top notch. It's kind of crazy really... But I guess that's where his OCD comes in handy The way Nate crafts his music... I'm almost never not left with goosebumps. It's so methodical "Rippin the teeth out of the back of my mouth is the closest you get to my wisdom" is such a fire line it's not even funny.
This is great!! I know ZERO about film, but enjoyed your knowledge and insight on this music video. I’ve followed NF for years and I feel like this validates just how expansive his creativity is. Excited for more!
I'm loving your reactions! Seeing the joy on your face for every transition was fun to watch. I also love that you were explaining it through a filmmakers perspective. I know nothing about film so it's fun to learn how some of our favorite shots are done.
As soon as I saw “filmmaker” in the title, I knew this video would melt your mind! This was so fun to hear the video broken down by the cinematography.
Yes!! This is the NF video reactions that we need! There are countless reactors doing NF videos these days, but they are all focusing on and saying the same things. However, you are focusing on one of the most underrated aspects of NF's videos... the cinematography. You bringing your experience and knowledge to the Outcasts (NF's fan base) of the world in a breathe of fresh air. A new take on the videos we've all seen a thousand times. Please continue... your reactions have been most enjoyable! 👍
Well... Hmm... First, I never expected this type of reaction to NF. Second, I never knew I needed this type of reaction to NF. So, I guess... it would make me happy to see you react to his videos STORY, LET YOU DOWN, SEARCH, LEAVE ME ALONE. Amazing reaction. 👌
So happy I came across this journey when you have under 1k subs. Taking the NF cinematic journey will be a great choice. You won't be disappointed and interested of your thoughts on a few of them. STORY comes to mind and Let You Down, Wake UP are other just off the top of my head.
I know u did this reaction a while ago. I soooo enjoy your critiquing NF. I discovered him not that long ago. I have seen most of his videos by now, the husband loves NF too. He really is pure talent! Im so JEALOUS! I could not believe his end scene either, i also heard he was almost hit. I CANT believe his dedication and i am so looking forward to seeing him LIVE. I hope u got to see him, he's touring now. Completely ENJOYED your many NF's reaction videos. I binged them! Still learning myself. Ive been a graphic artist since the 90s and a writer. Doing it all like NATE? Oh how i wish! I HAVE NO WORDS! writing music, producing music, writing scripts, and directing & editing videos? Just WOW! UNBELIEVABLE! he's the master of it all. "He doesn't know why GOD chose him?" (words in this song) because there are many people like myself that need to learn "SOMETHING" from NF. We never stop learning from each other. Thank you!
I didnt think I'd be as much into videography/cinematography as I am after watching your videos; I only really started watching because I seen an NF reaction video, but I genuinely enjoy your content and explanations! I had no idea about framrate ratios and how each affect a scene differently! Thanks for the general knowledge, as well as fair and enjoyable reactions! 🙌🙌
Heya, new sub here! I have notifications for your channel set to "All"! 😊 I commented on your reaction to NF's "Lost" as well - again, your perspective is so unique and I'm actually learning a lot...love it!! 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥 NF is my #1 favorite artist 💖I'd really love to hear what you have to teach us about his video for his track called "Story". Again, very well done - thank you 👏🏻
I've never watched a filmmaker reaction before and I really loved it! You did such a good job helping us to understand how a filmmaker would look at shots. Really cool. And I have to agree with others - his videos are amazing, like little films on their own. I watch "Story" all the time because I love the video so much. Subbed and cannot wait to see more!
I'll be honest I've never heard of your channel. But when I saw that NF in the title I clicked as soon as possible. Please do more of these. I'm a great fan of NF and you got a sub as well🙏❤️
I'm such a fan of film and I love seeing a reaction channel with your particular perspective. This is great. I just watched all three videos you've posted so far. I'm sending your channel to my best friend's son who is currently studying film in college at the moment. I think he would enjoy your insights.
Watching you for the first time reacting to one of my favorite videos of all time. I immediately subscribed and I believe I am your 800th subscriber 😊. Feels like an honor.
I don't know how I got here but I love that I am here! I've heard others break down the music of NF but not the video magic. Loved your reaction and welcome to the NF family.
This is the first time I’ve watched your channel. I’m an old broad who knew one thing I’d never do is listen to rap…until I heard my first NF song. Not only did he have something REAL to say, but his videos in terms of cinematography and visual symbolism are works of purely sophisticated art. Hearing you break down the actual cinematography logistics adds just one more layer of interest to me. Hope to watch more of your videos soon. I reckon y’all can teach an old dog some new tricks- (;
NF actually has lyrics “Way that I been thinkin' is cinematic, it's beautiful Man, I don't know if I'm makin' movies or music videos”… every video he puts out is top notch
I’m so glad I found this channel!! As an NF fan, I’ve always thought his music videos were cool, but watching this gave me so much more appreciation for them!!
Strangely recognized this voice from that Throughline channel on the power of vulnerability video. Of course I had to satisfy my curiosity by putting those journalism classes to work only to uncover that you are also the mastermind behind those too. (Sorry to bust your cover- not sure if there was anonymity there) Simultaneously disappointed that viewers won’t be able to identify you with that work on this new channel. Not sure what the thought process behind that disassociation is but that’s incredible nonetheless (to put a face to that art). I’m a photographer myself attending Toronto Film School to become a DOP & Colourist so the content here is very intriguing and also doing my 6 years consecutive Spotify Wrap-Up Artist, NF! Subscribing with a military salute!
this is fantastic.. trying my hand at a new reaction channel.. you are good my friend. congrats on entering the fellowship of film. send me your stuff, would love to check it out!
Hello first time viewer here, i most likely found you cause it was NF! 🙂 But no worries im glad i did! Holy mackerel what a great reaction video, NF is a great Artist! He does alot for his craft and it shows, I appreciate the way you gave a look trough another lens, this was the first Reaction video I've seen about the music video not the songs and it was cool too see another way, and the way you explain specific ways of doing the craft intrigued me, I'll be looking at some more for sure ☺️ Thank you! ☺️
Welcome to the world of NF, my friend! So cool to hear your filmmaker's analysis of this masterpiece of a music video. I love your chill way of reacting and how cheerful and positive you are. I hope you react to many more NF videos (as well as others) and I wish you the best of luck on your channel! :)
Something I never really noticed about that first transition from the clouds to him sitting in the chair is that he rocks backward slightly in the chair, as if he'd just sat down in it, or "landed" in it with the transition, coming down from the clouds.
i've been a fan of NF for a while now, and every time i listen to his music i find little hiden things, and they all suprise me every time. keep up the good work🙌
Watched a couple of your NF reactions and loved the unique technical insights into the videos as well as the reactions themselves, look forward to more like it!
Man I didn’t even know the ending clip of him with the cars was legit, but thank you for even thinking about looking it up if it was or not cause that opens it up even more😂
a pet peeve of mine is the transition with the refrigerators how it isn't exactly lined up just enough for me to notice every time I watch the music video
I've only recently discovered NF's music and while I feel he is incredibly underrated and mostly unknown and would love for him to get the praise and recognition that he truly deserves, I'd still love for that to not happen so we could keep him our little secret, you know what I mean? Yes, his videos are masterpieces, but his music, omg, his music SCREAMS to me, those lyrics, I just can't. Makes me cry.... in a good way
Please more NF! So many fantastic videos by him. He doesn’t miss. He even says in The Search “I don’t know if I’m making movies or music videos” and that’s completely accurate, especially after watching you break down a couple of his videos. When I Grow Up Let You Down Leave Me Alone Those would be great to do!
an interesting side note, that last shot with the cars was shot at the end of interstate 840 in Tennessee, I used to drive by that spot on my way home from college regularly
Loved your reaction! So cool to see NF videos through your professional perspective. Had to subscribe. Definitely another vote for The Search or Story.
So happy to see a dedicated video breakdown now exists alongside; the lyrical, compositional & production breakdowns that some other great people create. & you too do a great job.
Man I’m a new sub and hope you’re doing more NF, his videos are known as movies they’re so beautiful, tragic most of them but every video he makes is INSANE AWESOME and the music even better, topics about mental health that need to be discussed more.
I love NF and it’s so interesting watching your reaction to this video, you’re spotting so many cinematography things I’d have no idea about - super interesting! New sub 🥳
Hey Jonathan, I really appreciate your explanation of the videography and what it means. I race rally cars and I’m starting to get into media and your explanations of shutter speed + frames per second, lenses, etc gives me so many ideas. Thank you!
I’m an old k..t and this is my first exposure to NF Clouds. I was instantly aware this is one of those artists who knows themself in relation to performance so well that the camera person can just hit record and get gold in long & short takes. The way he inhabits the frame with such seemingly casual abandon tells me they must have a cinematic eye. And the bars with barely any beat behind just showcases his flow as a rapper. Is he pretty involved in the vision of his videos cause some vids you can tell they had to manufacture some kind of charisma from the artist but this doesn’t feel like that? I enjoyed your informative reaction too. 1st time viewer.
It really was him. They have videos of him doing really around cars! It was awesome! - obviously they had stunt drivers so they knew what they were doing but still nuts! lol
NF has stories in all of his songs! The Search is one of his music videos that has one of the most subliminal messages behind him throughout the video. You have to really listen to the lyrics to understand what’s going on behind him and it’s so smart. I would love to see you breakdown that music video!! NF has really saved me with his music! I love watching people recognize how hard he works and how incredible he is!!
Love the perspective from a filmmaker. I listen to people react to lyrics, Flow, Speed, Annunciation, and style. This is an awesome new take that expands my view and makes what i see in other videos and cinema more understandable and relatable. thanks
Love the channel, love the reactions! Keep it up. I also love the fact that you explain stuff about the filming, it is really nice to learn some new stuff.
you should always talk about some of his lyrics as well ! lyricism is why we connect with him so much and these stunning visuals are just a cherry on top ! we would really appreciate if you point some of his lyrics as well ♥
Wait until you do the search…so much there. You will dig it. Welcome to the journey my friend. Definitely following…great to hear the cinematic perspective. Well done.
