    for me it's the fact that your BTS videos are long-form and detailed. You can literally see the entire thought process and the 'construction' from start to finish. Thank you for being selfless with your knowledge.

    Sliding the camera onto the dovetail on top of a ladder is a wild move when there is literally a quick release plate right below it.

    This is some of the best content for filmmakers on YT! Love the in-depth BTS and how you explain things, and the wrap-up at the end about how things don't always go as planned. Can't wait for the next one!

  • @JourneyerTexas

    Your latest video is absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing- I know it is a lot of hard work to not only shoot the commercial but to also turn around and do a BTS as well.

  • @arthurhusken

    Hey Gian, keep it coming because I like to see the hard work you and the crew put in and with a great end result! Nice to taste the vibe on a set and watch how you get things done. Lighting, camera etc. Great value to me. Thanx

  • @AllThingsFilm1

    Another great BTS video. As others have said, I love the detail and depth of your BTS videos. You really get across all the hard work and collaboration that goes into a commercial shoot. The spot itself looked fantastic. Loved the inclusion of Super 8 footage. Great work.

    I actually was 2nd AC for a movie that Nathan Airey was gaffing! It's such a small thing but to watch my favorite filmmaking series and to see someone I worked with closely on it makes me feel like I am on the right path. Even when all the imposter syndrome kicks in. I can't wait for the next video!

    Another banger Carlo!! You asked in the early segment of the video if you did a decent job wearing all those hats. I believe you did. You handled all those roles with confidence. Managing the crew, lunch time, location time, company move, all while getting the shots you need as a DP. You were even directing at one point haha. Truly very impressive and inspiring.

    Thanks so much for this! what a great team and I love when the client is so open-minded, mine would never approve a location if they see other brands in the shot and I've worked with a big-name beer company.

    • @myvideoguy
      @myvideoguy ปีที่แล้ว +1

      100% - soo true. That one of the obvious signs it's not a higher budget commercial, as a lot of the staging, signage, brand products / SKUs, blocking etc would've been approved and setup prior to the shoot day, and not so much off the hip on the actual day - because those are the things than can delay a shoot if you're trying to gain approval from someone higher that's perhaps off-site as opposed to the rep / brand manager that's often on-site. You gotta do your best to identify ANY of those kind of issues well ahead of the shoot day, for the bigger players that HEAVILY curate.
