The tip about turning everything into a scene and not just alternating between an interview and B-roll makes such a difference on screen. Entered and super inspired to go out and shoot a 1 day doc!
Wow, Mark: that distinction between a visual podcast and documentary is gold. This is the reason I subscribe to this channel. Clear, actionable, and true.
This one day doc competition is such an amazing experience!!! I can only recommend it, it made me progress soooooo quickly, it forced me to search for a good story that could be told in a short amount of time, be good prepared, and finish it on time. I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT! ❤❤❤
One thing I love, that you really touch on below the surface of this, is the excitement of the moment; when an idea becomes tangible, and you're armed with the knowledge of the steps it takes to realize your vision. There are so many practicalities to making a doc, but getting through those steps in order to create makes it all the more exciting. The breakthrough, the room to dream, is the goodness in all art. To young filmmakers out there: find the team whom you trust, and who share the excitement for creating and dreaming with you. Be smart but go wild.
Love that you said to hide the mics. I was always taught to hide lavs and keep booms out of frame, these days I see the wireless go mics all over the place, in their hat, front of their shirt, in their hand talking into it like a cardioid mic 😂
lol .. I was def about to sign up thinking it was in the ball park of tomorrows filmmakers or content creator ..and NOPE! These prices are astronomical 💯
Yeah this is definitely a fun exercise I wish I jumped on. I really should give this more of a go, the problem is always starting - kinda like that "first time at the gym" type of anxiety. I've got all these great ideas, but just gotta start.
i checked your channel. youre actually good and have talent, but you dont have like a recurring theme. youre all over the place, fromthis to that, trying everything just to be successful on here. try to stick to a topic, like mark is the Docu guy. with your talent with time you will become well known but not over night by riding the right hypetrain.
@@Kakaellsen Hey! Thank you very much, I truly appreciate it. I totally agree with you dude, I treat my YT as a place where I can share all the things I get up to - slowly starting to lean more into proper story telling (kinda like my last vid.... but more). Just need some more practice and a little more confidence 😅
@markbone What is the average length of a One Day Documentary through the AOD process? Thanks so much for this video, I am inspired to film my first documentary in 2024!
Hi i am living in north Africa . I would like to know if i am able to participate . Most of all thanks for spreading this wonderful passion of filmaking
thank you so much for the video! So useful for those who always think about making doco like me. Could you tell me how much these course cost? I visited AOD website but didn't find the price.
Hi Mark, Great vid! Im about to shoot a documentary on bittensor, a artificial intelligence project, very digital, very technical. Im struggeling to think of what broll to capture as I dont only want people coding on computers or screens with diagrams. Any tips here? Thanks in advance :)
Hi Mark, How are you? If you read this, i am currently transferring the footage of my second 24h documentary. I am learning as we go as documentary will be a new niche for for.. would you like to review it when it is finished Although I am not part of AOD? Kind regards, John van der Valk.
My name is Jonathan Trauner. I will be 30 this May 15th 2024 in Jerusalem. I work at Mobileye in Jerusalem. I have Autism. I am a poet artist and performing artist and I love Gal Gadot and Taylor Swift. On June 18th 2023, I got hit by a huge tour bus and I only broke my left collarbone and did not die. I finished recovering end of August 2023 and my bone returned back to normal and to a completely unbroken unified state beginning of December 2023. My greatest dream come true is to become the first openly autistic poet performing artist and artist with Autism to win my Emmy Grammy Oscar and Tony film and acting awards in Los Angeles California in 2025, or in 2028 at the 100th Academy Awards. #NEVERGIVEUP
