This video is three years old now. But at a Potato Jet video I saw last night he said it was a ring light, very popular about 10 years ago but it causes the ring in the eyes because the camera is right at the center of the light.

One of the very best long pauses I have ever seen is in the movie Flight. When Denzel Washington walks away from the vodka bottle on the hotel mini fridge, and the bottle stay in full view for a long time. It builds that tension, that makes you perceive how strong alcoholism affects the character. That’s a proper long pause.
@JohnBradford14
@JohnBradford14 3 года назад
Here's one: writing dialogue that a character wouldn't believably say, or micromanaging dialogue until it comes across as forced. One of the best tips I heard was to let actors ad-lib small talk because that's how small talk is actually made. Feel free to film it, too, that way you have more context to work with. Don't, for example, just write the punchline to a joke that doesn't have a wind-up and then expect the actors to organically react to it.

Thanks a lot man. Aspiring filmmaker here and I've probably made about half of these mistakes. I've been filmmaking but not really studying up enough and just using my raw talent. Recently started up a film team and knew that I had to step my game up if it meant having an actual production crew.

Very good advice. I worked in Hollywood for many years, usually as an extra. This is a very helpful video for anyone planning to make a movie. The only thing I might add is to avoid exposition, which is telling the story instead of showing it. An example might be having a character who is on the phone and who says something like "What's that? You say you met someone who knew your grandma in Transylvania and he thinks you are related to Count Dracula... and he is coming over to the house tonight? And he will arrive about 6 PM when the full moon is coming up and he will be wearing a tuxedo?"

Amazing how much an audience will forgive when it comes to visuals as long as the story works and the sound is good. "Clerks" looks awful, but no one cares. And ironically, we filmmakers seem to spend all our time worrying about the camera.

Great video! Another hot tip for set dressing is two-tone walls. Paint a chair rail and mix some white paint in with your colour for another tone. It acts as sort of an indoor horizon and accentuates where you place your camera, in addition to spicing up your background without adding clutter.

About filming in a small apartment.. I'm no film maker but i think using a wide angle lens helps in giving the shot more depth (don't go overboard though, no fisheye unless you'r filming the effects of drugs or something). And when selecting lens for the shot, consider aperture to get that shallow depth of field that keeps focus on what's important. P.S. fantastic flick, though I really did learn a lot :)

Gotta say, I've heard all of this before, but you explain it so well and give examples of the points you're trying to make. This is a pretty useful video that I may look back to in the future. Currently in the process of filming my first "big project". It's a short film, but the director/producer/main actor is putting so much hard work and dedication to make this thing look like it had a very high production value, when in reality our budget is pretty tight.

Hey Darius. I've been writing and making films for a couple of years now (on my channel), and this is like a checklist I should be using. Super informative, and very well put together video!

So great. You are insanely talented, Darius. Also, props to THE ACTORS! Potent, intense performances. Kate's turn to look at Mom as she exits frame is chilling.

I think one exception to the "Too much chit chat" rule is a Tarantino film. His films tend to have long scenes of "chit chat" but the dialogue is so good that you don't mind listening to it.

And Rohmer, and Jarmusch, and Ozu, and Tarkovsky, and Wenders, just to name a few. Darius was too liberal by saying dont use too much chit chat, but I think he ment dont use too much chit chat that doesnt mean anything or add to the film. Tarantino likes to use long dialogue driven scenes, but his "chit chat" becomes the story, substance, and high suspense points in his film.

15:33 I think a lot of filmmakers both amateur and professional should take that advice. Can you imagine if the Coen brothers had ruined No Country For Old Men by filling it with the cheesy music you hear in most action films these days? Awesome video, greetings from Australia.
