I really appreciate how clearly you broke down each part of the process! I'm not in the industry but it's always fascinating to see how you approach a shoot and get everything set up!
Thank you 🙏 I really appreciate that. I’m trying to provide as much value as I can with these videos to help people who haven’t been on the larger scale productions. That way they know what to expect
wow , night mare background even if it was wider , and a bit more out of focus , shooting straight on like that is a no no, even on the cheapest shoot , that was their choice on a 60K shoot ? they had an art director ?
That was their choice, they wanted straight on to camera. They wanted a side profile. They had an art director and I learned a lot just being on this shoot. Next time I’ll for sure be asking dimensions of backdrop. As you can see the reference photos are pretty damn close to this look.
@@WanderlustVP Im not talking about the subject being straight on , but the wall / BG behind them . Im not bagging on you , but your clients who actually requested it ! Its page one not to shoot directly onto a flat wall like that , zero depth , even if it's out of focus . But to do it on purpose ,thats a bit wild .
I agree man, I don’t know why they didn’t go with a more dynamic look. I’d rather shoot without the wall any day. They really locked into that loft apartment look haha. Also they wanted to put animations and call outs to his right, so maybe that played into their decision making. They wanted something clean they could overlay text and graphics on.
@@robinprobyn1971I would generally agree with you, but check out the recent series Tom Brady Man in the Arena for a high budget, high profile doc-style show that is all straight-to-camera interviews with a flat background!
Good stuff dude! That one-man-band stuff can be hard to move away from if you don't have a community you can lean on. Love the cap btw.. LFGSD!
Well said, it takes a team! Thanks for watching 🙏

hey what lenght sdi cables did you have use on the sumo monitor ? and also where they 3g sdi or 12g sdi?
I’m trying to remember, I think they were fairly short maybe 3 ft long since we just mounted the transmission close to the sdi port.

Semi newbie: sorry, am I missing something here? Was it really just a basic two cam interview setup? 60K???
