@@dontbelazy3136In order to do this though, you need to have the equipment, know how to use it, and know how to identify it(Aka know how to do this). You also have to think about the budget and how the shots will look. It may seem simple to you, but when you look into all of it, many people would find it difficult and if they did do it- it wouldn’t all be good quality or look the same/similar. It all depends on the person of course, but it takes training and knowledge for many things- including this. That is also why directing can be so difficult and why not all movies/videos look or sound very pleasing.
@@CrisOnTheInternet In a way yes, but we must thread this sentence carefully. Even though I paint (I am not a beginner), I use maths and physics for my art ( understanding light, structure, perspective, even the way I pick colours, composition etc...). I am not artistic at all since I lack creativity. I do my art the same way I perform my experiments ( I am bioinformatician), which is by memorising everything and applying logic to create a satisfactory result. I think art is more than just logically executing every stroke, consciously placing and deforming the rules to obtain an outcome. I think art leaves more space to emotions, the self, something that I don't understand, but my works? Not really. To sum it up, I think it depends on the person and how they do things. That's what may blur or define the line between art and science- Feel free to challenge this idea, this is an interesting discussion :>
Didn't realize when clicking on this what an informative and captivating watch it would be. Mad respect for the effort you put into this and the accuracy those scenes turned out to be!
Cannot belive this video only have 25K views, It is sooo good and mesmerising how skilled you are and how you know what you’re doing, makes it looks soo easy. You deserve way more attention to your channel 😫 Edit : Y’all don’t need to reply to my comment saying how much views the video is gaining, I KNOW and I’m happy about it 😭.
It completely tripped me up to randomly stumble upon a youtuber who not only lives in the same part of the world as me (West Michigan) but to also find out you live a street or two away from where I used to live lmao! I don't know you,, but I'm proud to see someone from our neck of the figurative woods following his dreams. Keep it up and make us proud!! Also really good video. It's impressive the amount of knowledge you have and work you put in to make such high quality videos. You're going places!
Really impressive work! I used to do gait analysis and you did a good job on the Barbie shot. Tip for next walking scene with heels. A heel that’s angled in (towards the arch) will make walking in a tough shoe (like these slipper heels with nothing wrapping around the heel) much easier. Ideally you want the stiletto landing centered under the heel verses the back of the heel. This is what’s creating the more fluid step in Margo’s walk verses the slight shuffle step of your model. Margo’s stiletto is striking the ground earlier in her step (fractions of a second, but it means her tibia is behind the stiletto, then rocks smoothly over it). It’s like you’re seeing the movement of the sunrise and sunset. On a straighter heel, when the stiletto strikes the ground, the tibia is nearly parallel to the stiletto and you lose the rolling movement. In this scenario it’s like seeing the afternoon sun and sunset. You miss the sunrise movement. The stiletto in your shot tilts in a tiny bit; Margo’s only a tiny bit more (the difference is only millimeters and can be best seen in the final step of the left foot). Arguably, Margo could have been fitted with a stiletto that tilts forward even more. It would have reduced how much she had to work to get that sunrise part of the shot. But alas, she has years of practice and muscle flexibility for wearing heels. Not to mention a team directing her and extended time and props to nail it. Probably more about gait than you’ll ever care to know. But hopefully will save you a couple takes in the future. To sum it up, the smaller the footprint of a high heel, the more of the sunrise you’ll see. Stilettos shaped more like a wine glass than a test tube will be loads easier to walk in and produce a more natural gait. Again, great work!
it's always so fascinating to me that there are people like you out there who have such deep knowledge about things us normies would never even question
This was such a captivating watch! It's amazing how you were able to not only figure out what techniques were used for certian shots, but also adapt them in a way that was accessible but not demenished when being filmed on a smaller scale and budget. I can’t wait to watch the second part and am keeping my fingers crossed for even more to follow in the future.
This whole thing is incredibly fascinating! There is a lot to be learned from reverse engineering shots. I especially love how include your false starts. Even the attempts that don't work can teach us a lot. I can't wait for part 2!
Well, I imagine doing a projector could work! That, or setting up a smaller light further away, and potentially putting that on a zip line since this time we want the reflection!
This gave me an insane amount of appreciation for filmmaking; its a billions of dollar industry, obviously it's insane, but the work just to get some of these individual shots is just... wow.
As a film major and someone who just enjoys movies, this was incredible to watch. Watching your videos, I feel like I’m watching the next Christopher Nolan at his early stages of filmmaking, which is funny, given the shot that you’re recreating next time. Amazing work, as always.
While I found this video super fun and interesting as a fellow filmmaker (and I admire all the obvious hard work and money it took to make this project) I would really recommend avoiding using generative AI in your future endeavors. Its ease of use overshadows the (usually) unethical use of un-willing artist's work to create these images. Still, this was a super cool watch and excited to see part 2! Subscribed :)
I had the same reaction. I didn’t stop watching the video at that point, but it really tempered my excitement to see the rest of the shot recreations. Surely problem solving is half the joy of filmmaking! I have a shot in an upcoming film that requires a large pattern that doesn’t exist, and the suggestion of AI has come up more than once. But I’m building a miniature for it and I’m super excited, both for the creation of it and hopefully for that “we freaking did it” moment. That’s the good shit. Also glad I stuck around for the C-stand bungie and ultimately the light tube, that was brilliant lol.
@@clobre_ not according to their latest T&Cs. They’re giving themselves permission to use any subscribers’ work for pretty much any means in the name of “improving their product.”
You are fantastic at holding someone’s attention! I’ve never understood the intricacies of filmmaking, and I know next to nothing, but this video was so wonderfully produced that I didn’t feel so clueless! I appreciated the mix of action shots and “real time” explanation shots! I’ll be keeping up with your content from now on! Fantastic work!
This is so impressive and I loved watching the process. It’s so cool that you are surrounded by people who will help you with your projects and have the patience to redo stuff with you.
This was so frickin cool! I loved the one in the car, and the Barbie one. They were absolutely amazing. Everything was! They all looked looked identical!
It's amazing how you're able to explain each shot down after analysing the lighting and lens control for each firm. I enjoyed seeing the film progress. ❤
A person would be able to replicate some of the backgrounds very closely, unlike AI prompts which are extremely unreliable/inconsistent. It would take about same amount of time for a better result by an actual artist.
Using generative AI defeats the entire point of a video like this. Also frustrating how many aspects were doable that you decided to do in post. Very modern mindset. You seem to not place much value on the tangible craft of these shots. Also some of these look incredibly poor (Zone of Interest - which, calling its shots uninteresting is simply wrong and clearly demonstrates lack of genuine knowledge). I expected an interesting video but was left disappointed at how many simple core aspects were neglected. Lots of flashy equipment, but a lack of respect for what the values of filmmaking are.
This is awesome! Dude you are so underrated! Filmmaking sounds like a hard but rewarding hobby/job. It's really cool how you throw in some film terms and knowledge bits too.
showed up on main page today - you only have 131k subscribers??? this is bordering a mil kinda production! incredibly impressed and SUPER excited for more content ❤ 8 years of filmmaking is very clear with the knowledge and abilities displayed in this video
I thank you for this amazing message, but I don't think it is fine to Assume when Jesus will arrive again, and again thank you bit I think we should put gods name In an Oscar recreation video on RU-vid.
It’s so incredible that you can do this and have a lower budget than like the Barbie and snow scene movies you’ve inspired me to when I get into college some day to take up photography and videography
This video should atleast have 10 million views. The amount of effort plus the experience of watching the whole process is made so professionally and interestingly. This is peak content. Absolutely amazing
The amount of effort you put into this is absolutely INSANE🤯🤯🤯 Phenomenal job, you are so talented and clearly very experienced in film, can’t wait to see what you come up with next!👏🏽🤩
People have mentioned this already but I genuinely cannot believe how “little” views this has. Certainly not enough for how impressive and amazingly done it all is. You got a new sub!
This is one of the most interesting videos I've seen on youtube in months! We watch so many films yet most of us have no idea what goes on behind the scenes and what makes us really believe in the things happening on the screen. Absolutely fascinating! Thank you for making this video, I will definitely check out more of your videos!
I know nothing about filmmaking and this has me in awe. The effort and artistry that goes into these shots is incredible, and your recreations are perfect!
dang i never subscribed just because I wanted to see a second part but from the moment that even just opening the window was already a challenge I knew this was gonna be a wild ride and was captivated til the very end amazing work right there!
