The last section of this video "Be Safe", is something not a lot of people talk about. I am so glad you mentioned this because this has been my biggest fear that usually stops me from exploring my options when am alone. I once tried a long shot with me walking away but I kept wanting to turn around and see my gear is still there. It was so much anxiety that I gave up on the shot and did not enjoy filming either. Its not good if you cant enjoy the filming process. urgh!!

@merladyneptune3908 8 месяцев назад

Ya I was wondering the same Lol... I would turn around every 30sec to make sure my gear is still there... How then

Thanks 🙏

@SusannahPerri 3 года назад

"Movement in post," that's where I often forget how powerful that can be. I concentrate so much on continuity, I forget that creativity is just as important! Just a little bit of movement can step up the level of the whole video. Thank you for reminding me to always remind myself about that. Great tips as always, thank you Jeven!

@Spyrosdaf12 3 года назад

That Manual Focus advice is gold.! I've been struggling with the autofocus I never get the proper look.

@CarlBergsdorf 3 года назад

Yeah I also found manual focus to be the way to go for every shot where AF is not an absolute necessity. Few things makes a shot look as amateurish as AF going bananas :P

Jeven, I wanted you to know how much I appreciate you and your page! I have loved videography since I was 16. But with life, sometimes we choose not to follow our passions. 😔 now that I’m 37... I’m getting back into it and of all the channels I’ve found and videos I’ve watched, yours is the best!! Thank you so much for creating your content and I look forward to leaning on your tips and tricks more going forward!!

@wanderfulanya 2 года назад

What a smart way to introduce one video from another

@drasoul 3 года назад

1. Gear: camera, BIG tripod, (drone) 2. plan and try out your shots 3. use manual focus (autofocus is indecisive on what to focus); there are shots where you need autofocus tho (if you move towards camera for example) 4. film a variety of shots (not always same angle; wide shots; from distance;...) 5. add camera movements in post 6. film a LOT of shots 7. make sure your equipment is safe (don't let somebody steal your stuff or let it fall over while filming)

@FlytPath 3 года назад

Great video Jeven. I need to add more angles when I shoot . These are great tips.

@JevenDovey 3 года назад

It takes more time but I always end up using them in the edit

@AdrianAlvarado707Cali 3 года назад

You the MAN Aldryn 👊🏽 Would be cool to see some different angles & unique ground perspectives mixed in with all the drone shots. But as you know, your content is highly watchable already. Cheers. (You the MAN too Jeven. Didn’t wanna leave you out 🤜🏽🤛🏽)

@The22Century 3 года назад

This breakdown is so helpful. I have a Google sheet where I write down all shot types for different styles - with a gimbal, locked off, handheld and so on... but in this video you convey key principles which give a much more clear vision of things. You would think this stuff is obvious... but without consciously remembering that (and making it a habit through the repetition) there is no learning. So basically I love this kind of videos, very helpful.

@Beyondthebackyard-au 3 года назад

Thanks, got some great tips here, especially about using the longer lenses.

@JasmineApple 3 года назад

Great tips! I'm glad you mentioned being safe - I was going to ask about ways to do this in a public place. I've never put my camera down and walked a short distance away without someone noticing. I swear I was 3 feet away from my camera when a guy walks up and shouts, "A camera!!" Most people aren't that obvious, but you can see their eyes widen, & they start to look around to see if anyone is near (I always am). So it makes a variety of shots and focal lengths next to impossible when you're alone.

Thank You Jeven for helping me understand when to use manual focus. Thank you for mediating mediocrity student film making. For ten years i have been using my android device for my through hiking videos. So far it has been a matter of how I approached the frame work. I just finished up 400 miles on the California Coastal Trail using a LG8 Android Device I also carried the dji mini 3 pro kit. I am looking at going to the next phase from Android Camera to Mirrorless Camera. It is important in long distance wilderness solo hiking to keep the gear as light as possible I am shopping around ..today I have been looking at the Canon Eos 100 which is 1.25 LBS (without added lens) I wanted to take this moment to tell you how much you are appreciated what you are laboring and doing really helps people find direction for good film discretion and decision making .... Thank You Jeven 👊
