“Don’t try to film it like an event. Film it like you are on a vacation that you want to remember forever” … Sometimes I feel like I’m more into the videography than actually enjoying what’s happening around me. Thanks for the reminder!

@kevinh82 9 месяцев назад

@Tardsmat 11 месяцев назад

Be careful with auto white balance since it can cause weird color shifts between cuts or even during one shot and can cause footage to not match up right. Having it set to daylight will probably be fine for most outdoor scenes, and even for indoor scenes if you're ok with them having a warm look

Thanks Victor for such a helpful video for travel filming. I had recently taken my Sony A7iv with a 24-105 lens, GoPro Hero 11, and iPhone 12pro max on a trip to Switzerland and a tour of Patagonia and South America. I like your tip about taking some time to enjoy the moment. I am 67 years old and my wife and I are checking off bucket list destinations. We are off to Indonesia and Bali in September. I do struggle with juggling so much gear while traveling that I miss much of the experience which I seem to relive when back home on the computer in Final Cut Pro. Your tutorials have helped me a lot. I will try to enjoy Bali in September and not worry so much about always getting the shot.

@VictorLaforteza Год назад

I think as video enthusiasts we always have this itch to film everything!!! especially if its a beautiful location. Definitely try to keep it minimal. If you get a good shot, great! and if not, move along and enjoy the scene :) I do love reliving the moment when editing or even posting online. It becomes a visual diary! Excited for you guys and your trip to Indonesia! It's so much fun there!!

Great tips. I’m not a big fan on bringing too much stuff while I’m traveling and actually ending up bringing too much gear anyway😂. I do manage to leave my gimbal at home and rely on the 5 axis in-body stabe instead. Just to keep the weight a bit down. I also try to keep the lenses as compact as possible but that can be a challenge sometimes.

@VictorLaforteza Год назад

Amazing! glad to hear, the joys of travelling is back!! As for the lens, I'm in the same boat. I want to sell the my sigma 28-70 2.8 and Sony 24mm 1.4 for the sony 24-70 2.8 GMii. The only reason is to condense my lenses and get that breathing compensation! If you do have the extra funds, I suggest getting the best of the best since you're going to use it for work anyways. If not, the sigma 24-70 is about 90% of the Sony already.

Thanks a lot for all your tips! You're an incredibly talented filmmaker. I wanted to ask you something, though. Yours are some of the very few videos I've seen shot with Sony cameras (and specifically the FX30 and A7) that don't scream "DIGITAL". I don't know why people are not talking about this more, because it's very obvious to me that no matter how good the image quality is on these cameras and how many times people (over)use the word "cinematic", 90% of the videos I watch featuring the last batch of Sony hybrid and cinema cams don't look like film, at least to me. It's not that they look "cheap" by any means. As I said, the image quality, colors and sharpness are super professional looking but, for lack of a better expression, the look "too real" and don't trigger the feeling of "this is a movie" that I get with other cameras. And I'm talking about cameras because I know there's a ton of different elements that contribute in making something feel like a movie, but in this particular case, you rely a lot on natural light and "simple" techniques and it still feels different from other videos I've seen shot with the FX30 the A7 and similar where even using pro lighting, it looks more like a commercial or a corporate video, but never like an actual film. What would you say it's that key element that makes your videos look different?

@VictorLaforteza 4 месяца назад

Thanks! I know what you mean about that digital feel. I think a huge part of it is exposure and making sure you're softening up the highlights and shadows in post so it uses the full dynamic range! I've shown my entire workflow in terms of filming and editing and I'm not quite sure what else I'm doing different! could be the grading!

@YaYousef5 11 месяцев назад

I like the idea. Thanks for sharing! For me, nothing about a zoom lens is "super light weight," and taking a gimbal with you while traveling sounds annoying and heavy. For traveling, I take my Sony A7iii with the Sony 24mm f/2.8 G lens. I also take a Godox TT350s smaller flash for portraits. That's an actual lightweight setup. When I do dolly in movement shots for video, I just do it handheld and stabilize it in Resolve later. Looks great. Having just one lens means I can throw the camera in and out of my backpack and I have to think a bit on how I want to frame shots. It keeps things simple. I also use my iPhone 13 Mini a ton! The stabilization is better than the Sony A7iii, and after doing a video I can easily share it with the people I'm traveling with. I lightly edit the photos/videos and it looks great. Next time I travel I'm leaving the camera at home and I'm going to challenge myself to only use the iPhone.

Yeah depends on what’s tolerable with your setup! I looooove lightweight setups! kinda missing the 24mm. I do agree, I think at one point I’m gonna try just bringing my phone and a power bank! That’s gonna be more worry free travel and easier to capture photos with it! Snap and go kinda thing

@croninooo 11 месяцев назад

Great video, thank you for explaining so well! As far as the settings go, do you use SteadyShot when using gimbal? Seeing the wide shot, it doesn’t look like there’s any crap.

@VictorLaforteza 11 месяцев назад

I usually turn it off but I also had some good shots with it accidentally left on.. so I don't really know which one is the best... lol most of the shots in this video is off though to give you a reference!

@croninooo 11 месяцев назад

@@VictorLaforteza appreciate the quick response! I have a Sony 20mm f1.8 and was thinking it might not be wide enough with steady shot on, but I’ll just shoot with it off. I have Sony A7iv and RS3 Mini, first time shooting with it. Thanks again

Awesome video. I'm curious - in the Bangkok footage, are you using Log or standard color profile? Thanks P.S. I live in bangkok and you showed many of my favorite places in the city!

@VictorLaforteza Год назад

Bangkok is so fun!!!! 90% of them are in slog3! some are shot in s-cinetone to get some low ISO shots for the bright day light (i didnt bring an ND filter so I had to compensate somewhere)

Great content - thanks for sharing! I was wondering do you ever get nervous, or get into trouble when flying a drone in foreign/busier cities? I know just in the US it can get hairy with needing a license and stuff, so I can only imagine it being just as difficult in other countries as well.

@VictorLaforteza Год назад

I don't bring drones anymore! It just takes too much time and getting permits is a pain for little gain.. (unless it's a professional shoot) everything drone shot was from storyblocks! but when I brought them before, I always get nervous even if I have proper permits especially with FPV.

Love the vid! I notice my AWB is super orange when filming with my Sony cameras (A7IV, FX3, ZV E1). You haven't had this issue?

hmm I haven't had super orange but a bit warm for sure! Easy fix especially for 10 bit footage. How's the ZVE1 btw?!

always in SLOG3 :)

Going to Japan and the Philippines in August. I'm hoping to get to at least half of your level of videography in 2 months lol. Wish me luck! Quick question, do you edit while you travel or do you do it all at home? If so, what computer do you bring with you on your travels?

@VictorLaforteza Год назад

Japan and Philippines are going to be awesome!!! Excited for you. Love the white sand and turquoise waters in PH. I edit my videos at home. I bring my 16" macbook pro m1 pro just in case I need to do some client work but for these youtube videos, I usually try and do them at home!

@JohnMichael-gd2lh Год назад

@@VictorLaforteza Thanks! I'm bringing a tinier version of your rig: ZV-E10, E 11mm f1.8, and my Crane M2S. Seeing your wide angle shots made me feel good about my 11mm purchase lol. It really does showcase the setting nicely. Loved the 7/11 static low light shot. Will be doing a lot of that in Tokyo and Manila. Last question, what mic were you using during your vlog shots? sounds really nice even on the street.

@VictorLaforteza Год назад

@@JohnMichael-gd2lh YES!! wide angles are so nice. I used a DJI mic! you can see it attached on my camera sling bag strap! Still trying to make it the best I can with audio so this was like one of my first few times pulling off something decent

@Jkforrealz Год назад

What about picture profiles? Are you shooting in Slog-3 for everything or no profile at all? I'm traveling to Alaska on a cruise with my wife and I am taking my FX3 and a couple of lenses so I can be light as possible. The last thing I want to do is mess around with my settings but I am so accustomed to shooting on Cine EI that I'm timid to not use a profile at all. Already have my Base iso on a custom button and I agree with putting the aperture on Auto (I'd rather have a deep DOF for travel anyways). Curious to know your thoughts.

@VictorLaforteza Год назад

Slog3! Sometimes I switch to s cinetone so the base iso is lower. I didn’t bring an ND so I needed a lower ISO at f/8-f22. I tend not to shoot EI unless I’m filming with controlled lighting. Just easier with flexible ISO mode. Let me know if you have any other questions!

@Jkforrealz Год назад

@@VictorLaforteza That's a really good point. I guess I've spoiled myself with Cine EI. I'll try switching back to flexible iso for more run n' gun scenarios. Cheers!
