How to Film YOUTUBE VIDEOS - Behind the Scenes 

So many people don't understand how much work goes into "being a youtuber." I'm a big fan of videos like these, keep it up bro.

One word... "Love"!!

You are by far the most thorough Filmmaker when it comes to explaining your processes. Thanks for always providing value.

I don't think your some rich kid given everything he wants! I see a man Blessed with pure talent Love your content always informative 👍

I joined fulltime filmmaker last months. Every single part of it is worth the price guys. Thanks a lot Parker 😊👍

Man, one day, I'd love to be on this level of professionalism. 👌🏾 You're an inspiration, brother.

I love your videos Parker! I learned a whole lot just from these youtube videos you upload. It's very informative compared to other tutorials. I'm currently saving some money to hopefully get your whole course and one day to be part of the fulltimefilmmaker community!

Totally deserve success... Awesome setup! You doing great job mate!

I think your mellow demeanor and chill voice make it feel like you're the nonchalant rich kid with a lot of toys. However, I have been making videos for years and know about the accumulation of gear. These videos are always so helpful and I definitely take something away each time. Thanks for doing these and keep up the good work

That was seriously informative! As a newbie with a photographic background, this all makes sense, I subscribed to your channel about two weeks ago, keep doing what you doing as you do it so well Parker!

I always appreciate it, when people admit, that they mess up a lot. It really takes pressure off beginners and intermediates, because they always only see the end result.

Do videos like this overwhelm any other beginners? 😅 or is it just me?

_Awesome setup.. And so quality video content! Keep it up Parker!😉_

I'm a 100-day starter youtuber who started RU-vid in Korea. I received a lot of help from your channel, and I learn a lot today ^^ Thank you very much

from the first time i decided myself to be a wedding videographer, i've learned so many things from your RU-vid channels. greetings from indonesian, thank you Parker

parker parker parker i have no words to you......i love the way you present, i love the way you shoot, I love the way you edit ....overall i love all of your works.

Thanks for sharing all this great info! I will try to do these techniques with cheaper stuff until I can afford it. I just wanted to add to your comment on the audio: when you use a mic, make sure it's on a stand and try to have it in the same position always because your sound can change a lot by the position of the mic. This is something we, musicians do in the studio, sometimes you just need to change the position of the mic to get a great sound. I have a little digital recorder that I use for ext. audio and I have notice it changes so much when I put it on a table without a stand or underneath a cabinet etc.

Man this is ridiculous! Fair play for all your hard work to be able to afford this! I’ve recently started making promo videos in the UK and so far I’ve made over £1000 selling videos with an iPhone and a stabiliser.

Much love from India. I learned a lot from your videos.

You have the best quality video on RU-vid!!?!!

Similar set up to mine. I’ve managed to obtain my kit over 2 years for video but converted my music studio for RU-vid also. Top tip: mount bars to ceiling and loose the stands. Game changer and will be showing this all in my next video

Parker, you're the one who influenced me to get LG V30+ as my main dailies along with the gimbal. It's amazing. My huge appreciation for that.

RED camera is just a prop... Yeah...I'm poor lmao

I absolutely love how everything was so straight to the point and very technical without any fluff whatsoever. I would love to see more on creative lighting.

Nice walkthrough. Yes, I have slowly added to my lighting and gear as well. Work with what you got. And don't sweat it in the mean time. Sweating it just means you have to wear more t-shirts per week.

8:32 Yes, you are right! Room echo is sometimes annoying when we listen youtube video using nice headphones. Your setup is awesome! That's why your video quality is professional!

I rarely if ever comment on RU-vid but I wanted to say I've really enjoyed following your work and its growth over time. Great stuff man. The pivot to course creation as part of your business was organic and brilliant. Much respect fam. Peace & blessings.

Outstanding video Parker! Love your content, energy and honesty. Thanks for sharing your talent. From Dave all the way in Australia! 🇦🇺

When you can, upgrade your shotgun from the ntg3 to a sennheiser mkh50. You actually don’t want to use a shotgun of that type indoors as the phase ports bring reflections in that will cause comb filtering in your signal. Those shotguns are made for exterior shooting.

I will need to fully understand how people dislike videos like this. This is an awesome and mind blowing setup.

Thanks for sharing Parker! I finished your course and have been killing it at my job! 🙌

Thank you for that wonderful and sincere review when I script my video I try to keep everything in my brain and keep the script so when I am recording I mess up a couple of time, I thought I was dump and should learn more thanks with that I will now see how to script and keep it at sight and make sure to try to keep it professional. I think in a year time I will be better. Thanks alot

The level that Parker is operating at with this game is absolutely insane. I don't think it will be long before his RU-vid content hits critical mass and he has what the internet might call a "Neistat-level explosion" in growth. I'm excited for that day to come. Probably won't be long after he pops a million.

"And that's the basic setup". You're really awesome, keep it up!

Great video Parker. When I got started I bought cheap gear but quickly realized how much quality I was missing and began saving up for better gear. All worth the investment and worth the time to save up or work harder for it all.

Greetings from KSL-TV here. Loved to hear you rattle through the equipment used, see the prices of that gear, and switch back and forth from behind-the-scenes mode to finished-product mode. Great, great info! Good luck in the new digs, man!

It's nice that you show how you make them. You've prolly scared off many competitors showing how much work goes into a video. I'm in shock.and awe

i am from the horn of Africa i.e Ethiopia always I follow your youtube videos i love all of them ...thank you very much parker

How amazing ... I have learned so much from your tutorials on lighting and making beautiful footage. The amount of energy, hard work, sweat, time you put into each video shows. Thank you for inspiring someone like me and I wish you a beautiful day

the setup is goals

Always looking forward to your vids, Parker. This setup is boss, and im inspired. Thanks for this.

I love how Parker recognizes the struggle with intro gear and its limits but gives us all so much hope to make quality content.

This man said, "The RED camera is just a prop. I don't ever use it." WOW, LOL. Lemme borrow it and shoot a movie then, lol. Just subbed btw.

You really know you made it in life, when RED camera is just a prop. Well done. Super informative.

The pricelessness of Parker’s vids cannot be overstated. Endlessly delightful flow, fluency of information, incisive ideas, helpful word! (No, I am not his bff. Never met, actually.)

Cool! And believe me, I know the struggle and grind of building your gear list/setup. 25 years in the audio business and people think I started out with all the gear I have currently.

I totaled this gear at 23,765.50 roughly. Minus the red and anything else he didn't price out exactly. Just in case you were curious

Parker, I really like your videos dude. How do you get so thorough? You literally almost read my mind.

I like finding videos like this that don't throw the idea of a super powerful custom PC with premiere being a requirement. Thanks Parker!

How high is your electricity bill? :D

6:19 "that's the basic setup.." Holy damm what you call basic XD anyway great video!

This is one of the best tutorials I have ever seen on ANYthing. Thank you so much. It's going to take me daaaaaaays just to glean all the information out of that video. By the way, I totally loved the 2 second scene with your wife and your kids. hahaha.. so cute. Thanks again.

And I just started since 7, 8 months ago and making excuses. Thanks to you I am more motivated now to use what I have for now.. 💪💪💪💪

I'm in love with the light bars 😫

Parker, congratulations with your very clear and professional videos. It is joy watching seeing someone like you taking this work seriously. Your 1000 dollar budget interview video is priceless, short, clear and great for amateur and professional filmers alike. The youtube setup video also great. Love to see more work. Thanks for sharing.

tHANK YOU SO MUCH! I am building a setup for RU-vid videos. I do not have any of the gear you have, but you gave me a lot of ideas, so I can work with what I have. THANK YOU!

Thanks for putting so much effort in making your videos. And for the people who don't have this budget, still an awesome video. You can take away a lot of information about lighting setups and create similar ones with tools that suit your budget at the moment.

Awesome! Think I'll be bookmarking this one and coming back to it as my setup develops. Really love how you were honest about your current gear not being something people should be aspiring to jump into right away... work with what ya got until it doesn't work for you any more!

Great vid. We are going to have a full time recording space this summer and seeing your setup is helpful.

One word... 'Overwhelmed'!!

Wow, you put so much work into your video’s, I love all the prices and the names of the gear popping up, thank you 🙏

You're a stud, Parker. Thanks for sharing all the knowledge.

You are an awesome teacher, Thanks for all you share with us. Cheers

Thank you so much for sharing .. People who are startup like me is very hard to keep on going. Your videos are always encouraging keep creating and do mix with some basic tutorial video which we forget sometime. Cheers!

Your setup is so nice!! Like you said, it takes time to build up to what you have but it's great to see how you have invested in high-quality products.

You Are Just Some Rich Dude! But You Have Worked Hard For It And You Deserve It!!!! 😇😊

This video is just beautifully perfect!!! And you do what many RU-vidrs do not, put the prices on screen. Wonderful wonderful wonderful

A smile rolls over face when I see videos coming from you.😋

Best studio setup video I’ve ever seen ❤️

Came a long way! Always appreciate your content.

Thank you the frank BTS. It's nice to get a peek behind the curtains. Cheers!

Where do you get your short sleeve hoodie shirts? You should start including links to your 'shooting wardrobe'.

Parker...2 words..he delivers...

Beautiful to watch. Complicated for beginners.

I love this kind of videos

Hey Parker, I really appreciate your videos. I am always learning something new. I just want to thanks for taking the time to let us know.

Another awesome post. LOVE IT

Man this is some hard work you've done there. Wow man. Really woooww

Thats fantastic. Parker i would like to copy a scale down version of your set-up because i don't know what i am doing yet. Once i get creative i will personalise it and then do my own thing. I hope you don't mind. I watched so many videos, yours are very flattering and they look really good. I keep getting back to your videos for ideas 💡.. its addictive.

Very nice video thank you ! That's a heck of a multicam edit :)

Professional instrument. Pro works. I wish and i will work hard in order to get what you have :-o. Thanks you for sharing from Vietnam 😀😀😀

Your videos are amazing. I’ve learned so much!

WOW. No wonder your your videos are so great!!! You put a lot of work into the videos! Awesome video.

Hi Parker! It was very kind of you to show the youtube stuff. Very interesting. Thank you!

Thanks for the transparency. Learning about the process that works is really helpful.

great video! nice to see some of the bits we did in our studio matched! thanks

My respect to you bro! It took me 5 years to get all my equipment and I havent even purchase everything I want

Such a great walkthrough, you point out every detail!

Fast story, no break :). selflessly shares the secrets of the craft. Gadget maniac :). When I look it, I find it easy to be a filmmaker...... :)

Awesome behind the scenes and I so need that light!

"The red camera is just a prop I never use it"... got me! 😅👌

Incredible set up! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
