My new Mantra; "It just needs to be good enough". Thank you, Dan Tracy, this attitude has gotten me two bookings since watching this video. I heard someone say once, You don't make movies, you abandon them. That's what I've been doing with my self audition tapes, if it's is good enough, it's good enough. The next thing I know, I'm in for a callback.

Thank you for this video! I love that light!

@ethanhardybenson7996 2 года назад

Great video, man! Would love to see a past self-tape/a quick video using all of your current self-tape equipment to see and hear isolated. With a college budget, trying to find the best order in which I should be slowly upgrading my equipment. Thanks, brother!

@callemorgan 2 года назад

This is really helpful. Thank you. Would you add anything new to your recommendations for 2022?

@marcelwerder1956 2 года назад

This is awesome, Dan! Thanks for taking the time to put this together - I'm glad I caught this one before making some big purchases from the 2020 setup... Do you ever run into problems with the backdrop not being big enough? I have that same size and always feel like I wish it was just a bit bigger all-around. Mostly for theatre auditions, but sometimes even for film - I'm trying to cut out the time spent making sure no corners are in the shot, etc. Also - with the new iPhone, do you ever use the front-facing camera? Or still no? Thanks again!

@lesliekritzernj 2 года назад

YESSS WE HAVE MISSED YOUUUU!!!!!!!! This is exactly what my year has been also. Easy workflow but it took me awhile to fully embrace instead of thinking it has to be the perfect perfect perfect. Ok here is my question, should I upgrade to the Iphone 12 pro or wait till the 13 comes out in a week or so? Always a fan of these videos!

@vaughanmurrae Год назад

Very helpful. Thank you

@TheRealWesTolman 2 года назад

Hey Dan, you listed the Moment Tele lens in the description of the video, but didn’t talk about it in this video. Do you use it for your self-tapes? Really appreciate the tips for simplifying the audition look. Like others, would love to see the final look of what this setup looks like from your phone.

@JonathanRayson 2 года назад

Really love the simplicity of this new setup, Dan…thank you! What’s the best angle/distance for the light? (And does this setup still work if I don’t have any other natural light in the room?)

@dantracyoriginals 2 года назад

As close as possible! I like just outside the frame on a 45 degree angle over your head. The light works well if there's no other light in the room, but the shadows will be harsher. If you know there won't be ANY light I might recommend 2 fixtrues.

@jonathanrayson3030 2 года назад

@@dantracyoriginals Thanks, Dan! I really appreciate the reply. Since watching this video, I've simplified my setup similarly, and it makes it all so much less painful. Cheers!...I look forward to more of your tips!

@jgeigs 2 года назад

Amen brother. I came to the exact same conclusion through 2020... I have to make this shit go faster so I can spend more time taping.

@lesliekritzernj 2 года назад

Also the moment lens? Helpful?

@ryananthonymauro 2 года назад

Wonderful setup Dan! I was just wondering how you control the audio on your microphone without it clipping or something.

@dantracyoriginals 2 года назад

Good question. In this set up I'm either using a microphone plugged into my camera or my phone. Our phones are pretty good at adjusting on the fly to avoid clipping, but if I'm using the mic plugged into my camera then I have to do a rehearsal where I test my loudest volume, and make sure I set the gain correctly.

@fibbermcghee23 Год назад

Hi - great info- could you suggest an affordable easy-to-use Camera NOT iPhone? I do not like using my phone. I want a simple camera for under $300. any ideas? THX!

@dougalrankine6869 2 года назад

Hey Dan - great videos, so helpful... So I've gone down the rabbit hole of trying to find the Godox light you use, here in the UK - getting conflicting dimensions (!) - definitely 20x12"?!!!

@dantracyoriginals 2 года назад

According to my product description it says 16 x 14…godox led p260c?

@dougalrankine6869 2 года назад

@@dantracyoriginals yeah, that's what I'm seeing - it's just in the vid you say 20x12" - and I was....well, I was looking at your hands and thinking yeah, maybe he has huge hands... and is it listed in his 'skills'...I guess we'll never know.

@adrianaechandi8880 2 года назад

Do you take your full body shots using the blue pop up background? Do most casting agencies use that for their full body (assuming it shows the outline of it in the video)

@willjohnson2748 Год назад

Any response to this question? I had the same question. :)

@chrissygram 2 года назад

Hey Dan! What's that filter/diffuser covering your light?

@dantracyoriginals 2 года назад

That’s just a piece of 250 diffusion paper!

@sutchnsutchfilms 2 года назад

“We don’t support ring lights on this channel.”Yes!!!!!!! Zombie eyes!!! I request a literal pack-down time #selftapegoals Currently, in the process of upgrading but also simplifying my set-up myself so need them goals 🙌🏼 Great video- I’m going to share it with an actor group I’m part of, it will go off!!! Get ready for those views!!!

@carlovoogt8321 Год назад

Does anybody knows what kind of paper is used/taped on the lamp?

@iPedroHD 8 месяцев назад

Does anyone know the name of the Ulanzi tripod model showed in the video?

@GaryMarr 11 месяцев назад

Any updates after 2 years? Love this channel!

@JoeRussellProductions Год назад

Seems like everyone asks for a full body shot. Do you do that with your pop up just sitting in the background, or do you remove it or shoot he full body shot in a different area?

@dantracyoriginals Год назад

I usually just put my phone in vertical mode, the way we see on social media so we can see head to below the knees. This shows the sides of the backdrop sometimes, but that doesn't bother me - it's all just part of the magic.

@JoeRussellProductions Год назад

@@dantracyoriginals Good tip!

@Chloemxrae 2 года назад

What is the paper that you put over the square light?

@dantracyoriginals 2 года назад

Of course! I use a small piece of 250 Diffusion paper. Its common on film sets and works great as an extra piece softener.

I specifically wanted to know about ring lights…. I got my answer. 🌚

no ring lights ever. Hate 'em

@falloutgirl902 5 месяцев назад

If casting directors want us to tape in our own homes edit the tape and find a reader I’m sorry they should be happy with me recording on my brick Sony Ericsson from 2006. We do half of their job now. They will see and hear me. Period.
