How I Plan Shots & Transitions | B ROLL 101 

Is there anyone else without a camera or a good phone camera that still watches these bids cuz its amazing?

You should do a whole tutorial on just the sound design!

*Objects + Actions = Shots*

Holy crap, I have so much to learn

Aye can we just s/o to Daniels girlfriend! She’s such a support. Not once did she get frustrated or inpatient with the making of this! Not everyone has that strong support system of them fulfilling their creative success. 👏🏼

Hey it's Daniel Schiffer of House RU-vid, First of his name, King of B-roll, Master of handheld shots, and father of the blown minds. 🔥 I'm such a dork sometimes.

As an advertising and still-life product photographer of 27 years about to transition into film ... this video seriously motivates and speaks to me ... I LOVE your approach, process and thoughtful approach to your video. I cannot WAIT to start my journey; thank you. 😁💯

I always get overwhelmed with all the info to process during your videos. This helped IMMENSELY! Thank you so much for all the unbelievable free content!

Would like to see Daniel do something outside of his typical product/food type stuff. Maybe a travel video, car ad, or some type of branding outdoors etc.

Thank you Daniel Schiffer for never disappointing us with your content.

i love how shes so serious, and its like he makes her do this all the time.

I love seeing your b roll behind the scene shots, it really goes to show that there are no special or hidden techniques, its all about just knowing how to use your own gear and framing that shot well!

Отличное видео. Много почерпнул из него. Самое главное, что после таких виде-уроков начинаешь видеть и чувствовать такие моменты в жизни и фильмах. Отлично! Спасибо!!!

The blending merging into pouring was so nice.

Cool. Love the sound of the metal straw on the glass and the transition from blending to filling up the glass. Plus the blade scene transition to spinning the top on epic.

Everything Daniel does is so damn smooth! I also love how he breaks down his process since it can be very easy to get lost and off-track when you're trying to film anything, let alone an epic b-roll sequence.

Bro this was just flat amazing the color grading, transition, thought process gone into this was just to good 😭🙏🏾

This guy is soooo good at giving tips and tricks. He has helped a lot in giving me ideas on how to film better b-roll footage.

I love how it ended , it looks so great well composed and transitioned!

Whoaa the amount of effort n creativity is just amazing.. not to mention your willingness to share ths with us. Thanks Daniel

I have a 5 yr old nephew and I make all of his videos, I edit them and I film them, learning this Broll techniques really made a huge difference. Thanks a lot.

Everything is clear and easy... but the problem is I don't have a girlfriend :(

I’m a photographer and I’m levelling up my skills to video editing. I came across with this tutorial on B-roll and men! The tutorial was amazingly delivered! I’m a fan already hehe. I love the way you created these step by step tips and guidelines. Keep it up! Can’t wait for another one. From now on, I’ll be following you forever haha.

Love your channel. You make everything crystal clear, and I don't feel talked down to. I don't know what it is, but there's a subtle condescending energy in the tutorial videos on many of the other channels. I don't know if the content providers are even aware of it. Or maybe because they're trying to be just a little bit too clever, original, or witty. Or maybe I'm just too sensitive. In any case, it feels like you're teaching in a very caring and professional manner, and I appreciate it very much. Thank you.

Amazing work. I love the organization and step by step approach. Thanks.

You blended the blender shot with the smoothie shot. You literally blended a shot of a blender. Amazing hahaha. This is why I love your stuff lol.

Wow. Just watched all. Again, super impressed. Wow.

Daniel is just amazing. I'm becoming addicted to his videos 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Whoa this was REALLY helpful. I've been so overwhelmed about making videos, but really feel like I need to do them for my business, and this helps break it down in a process that is duplicatable and also adaptable. Thank you so much!!!

Been loving the content man!!! Keep it coming!!!

Love this tutorial. Helps someone like me who is a beginner.

Insane how you make these everyday items so artistic. Awesome transitions!

This was mind blowing! Saved it so I can come back and watch again. Great stuff for people like me who are getting started.

I make videos for a living for my channel, but they in no way have this cinematic element which I would love if they did! I stumbled upon this video and I do believe this channel will make me a better videographer and editor. :) Thanks!

All organic shots, just pure talent and skills bro. Amazing, im just literally mind blown by your way of taking the shots and handling the camera. such skill of perfection. Kudos to you and your team. And thank you for sharing the tips, for us small you tubers and young film makers, this brings us back to basics 101 that you cant have everything done by a studio or editor, there is that skill of creativity in making shots, setting up the lighting,backgrounds,props and just camera handling for a that outstanding scene. I definitely recommend your video to my friends. Thank you

I'm just going to thank every RU-vidr I learn more from in one video than I did from 5 classes from one of my professors. Thank you

This is so cool with the sound design, camera transitions , cuts, directional blur ..... wow 😯

Thanks❤️

Sarah's total disinterest in all of it 🤣

I love these kind of videos, these videos are full of secrets and tips to improve the quality of our videos.

In the middle of the video, i needed to stop to write a sincere “thank you” for explaining in detail 🙏🏼i really appreciate it ❤️

Before watching the final video: "Damn, it's actually not that hard, I can do that" . . After watching the final video: " Holy shit, how did he come up with that ?!"

Awesome break down

Whoaa love how you break down these steps. Super useful. Thanks Dan!

Maaaannn Bro! Your videos are AMAZING! They just give me chills every time!! Awesome work!🤩👍👍

Is nobody commenting on how he shot and edited this video of shooting and editing a video? Dude did double the work. Guessing he did the same list and what not for this RU-vid video.

Thank you. Love the simples steps that helps me understand how to plan. This is very helpful and video is amazing.

absolutely amazing!! I am impressed & fully entertained by this. Awesome job.

This has just sparked my interest as a videographer/ video editor, amazing

Im a new sub and man I’m like bing watching all your vids bro! Learning!!!! Thank you bro fr fr.

The final result is fun and dynamic! Love the movement and the sound effects. Thanks for showing the process. I am going to shoot something with iPhone, to practice the process.

This is so good! I don’t even own a camera, but doesn’t stop me from being addicted to your channel! Your content is top notch sir! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

omg, I got goosebumps🥺 really beautiful

Epic as usual! Would love to see a second video on this about your editing process and more in depth about those key frames and speed ramps in FCPX

The real battle is keeping these handheld shots in focus 🥵

Hello Sir, Im from Pakistan. I have been watching your tutorials since 5 years and have learnt sooo much from youuu .... i knew nothing about photography but by watching your tutorials i am now running my own business and earning a handsome amount

The list prior is super important ! Gives you a check list of everything you need ! Great advice

Thanks for taking the time to do these videos I am learning so much, absolute the best videos covering B-roll creation I've found so far. I find that I'm filming simple mundane actions at home and creating these short vids for practice incorporating what I'm learning from your videos and as amateurish as mine are relative to yours I'm still getting ohs and ahs from the people I show.

Step 1 is to write down all the objects and items that are going to appear in your video. Step 2 is to write down all the actions that you can do with said objects. Step 3 is to create a shot list around those actions that will serve as a rough guide, and... Step 4 is the fun part and that is filming the video and getting those transitions. Note: A lot of it is done on the fly but this will hopefully make it a lot easier. Step 6: Sound design.

that was so beautiful! and from simple example things! thanks for this video. Epic!

Holy crap! that was spectacular man! congratulations! a hug from Brazil!

Amazing as always, one of my inspirations to start on YT this year. I'd like to see more about the final tunning you make at 04:49. Thanks, man.

You should do a video on how you do Keyframes and Masking. I'm sure everyone would love it. Great video 👌🏻

Eeeish🙌🏽!! I have learnt so much in 1 video. I am an official subscriber, I am hooked! Thank you for your openness in teaching us your tricks!!

wow! this gave me chills! this was awesome!

This was awesome to learn Planning, preparation and Managing your results according to plan or story. Superb thanks for guiding us keep it up and wish you good luck see ya SOON!

I'm just watching this because I'm going to attempt to do this for a class I'm taking 😁 Wish me luck!

So so informative!! The way you wrote down the object list and different actions in which you could film those.

This is the video we didn’t know we needed

Thanks, Daniel, for the continuous inspiration and insights on your workstyle. I practice a lot of it, and it helps. so. much. Thanks mate :) Whenever you should, if ever, come to Munich in Germany, be my guest :)

Might be the most visually pleasing thing I’ve ever seen

Thanks for including the straw inserting sound into the final video soo satisfying!!!!

That is amazing. I would love to the see the editing process in this

EVERYONE: This is the video I've been waiting for! Daniel: I know.

loved that part when after blending scene merges with the pouring shot, Awesome.

Absolutely loved it!

awesome!

Sick walk through! Would love to see how you incorporated those little animations as well they were a lovely added touch 👍👍

This is a great video shows ordinary people the basics, the process and the steps!!! Thanks brother!!

I really love these , behind the scenes type of work ,keep going

Daniel sniffer you are so amazing, you inspire me every day.

This video was DOPE💯 I learned a lot that I will try in my own videos thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills 🙌🏽 You have a new SUBSCRIBER!

The true definition of content creating!!!!

I love the final edit. It looks great! I will definitely use these methods when planning out my next videos.

This is very helpful 🙏

*Me seeing he posted a long video* Me in quarantine: LET’S GOOOOOOOOO

I love your work and the insights you provide. Thank you!

I love that you teach organization!!!!! To my ADD brain omg 😱 it’s beautiful 😍

Transitions are key, they make such a difference in the final cut.

It should be noted to shoot a little bit wider so you can do those movement transitions that require a crop. ✌🏼

This is so awesome & very detailed. Exactly what i need to learn from the starts

I write everything down too, very solid video man. Thank you for the pro-tips

You should do a challenge, since you have a lot of planning, on filming a “raw” B Roll where like you don’t know what items you’re using or the theme and stuff!!

Have you ever wonder, making smoothie would be that Creative.

LOVED THE FINAL VID

THIS. VIDEO. IS. AMAZING. Thank you!

Dear Mr. Schiffer, I'm sitting here on this very day reflecting on how great of a mentor and filmmaker you've become to myself and the RU-vidrs watching this channel. The great director Sydney Pollack once said "Editing feels almost like sculpting or a form of continuing the writing process." and I think this video depicted that very saying. Thank you, Mr. Schiffer.
