2x Establishing shots (0:57) 2x Wide shots (1:21) 2x Medium shots (1:38) 2x Close up shots (1:52) 1x Unique perspective (2:07) Thanks for this video, great info! Gonna be interesting incorporating this into the car audio content I create
I’ve been shooting TV News and other content for almost 30 years now and I shoot to edit meaning as an Editor I know the shots I will need to edit a sequence. There are a lot of camera ops that don’t edit and I you can tell when you look at their work. Once you start editing and editing on a regular basis, you will know what shots you will need. The unique perspective is one I am always using in my work in some way or fashion.
Shoot for the edit... Editing is like cooking... You got to know what you want to put at what time... So you need to get all the ingredients you need to cook the best...
Completely agree. I know they teach this coverage coverage coverage technique in film schools, but you very quickly find it eats up time during production and editing and burns through storage space. More footage = more time = more money.
Solid advice. A phrase my dad taught me that applies across many areas of life…. “It’s better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.”
What's really nice about this/these that you can watch something and start calling it out. I was watching a scene from Equalizer 3 and started calling out to myself: Establishing, wide, medium, close up, unique, medium, medium, close up, wide. It really helps cement the concepts. Thanks for sharing!
2x Establishing shots ( 0:57 ) - showing the scene where you're at. 2x Wide shots ( 1:21 ) - wide shot showing the subject from head to toe and what the subject does. 2x Medium shots ( 1:38 ) - showing whatever the subject is doing; a little bit tighter than a wide shot. 2x Close up shots ( 1:52 ) - showcasing "something" to fill the frame. 1x Unique perspective shot ( 2:07 ) Thanks for this idea! I will incorporate these techniques to my narrative video story telling ❤
I need to hammer this into my brain. Some days on my trips I’m really good about it, other days I fall off. Hoping to do better this year with this kind of stuff!
It’s a good set of shots to default to when you don’t feel inspired or you’re feeling rushed. Takes a weight off my shoulders when I need it. Also looking forward to the new build… my truck went into the shop yesterday and my new build is in progress. I see a collab/trip in the future 👀
Yes sir! Realistically my truck wont be here until May at the earliest, they hybrids are taking a while. It will be fully ready for some adventure films by summers end though! Lets do it! @@JevenDovey
Love this rule!!! A great way to have in your workflow. Ive seen videos that explain the different view of taken shots but the way you explain it makes A LOT MORE SENSE!! THANKS MAN!!!
Thanks for laying out this formula. I make travel videos/vlogs of my family trips as a hobby and it's always a bit disappointing when I find that I don't have a good amount of shots to set the scene. Sometimes I only have 2-3 shots that aren't long enough to make a nice musical sequence or even no shots. Just left with one linear boring sequence of events. That works if I'm just doing a simple log of the day, but the creative in me is wanting to have some fun editing and making cool videos. I just didn't know what else I needed so this will be very helpful.
This was good advice! It's too easy to forget capturing enough footage when hiking solo, maybe in difficult conditions or when I'm dead tired (which is usually how I end up on my hikes 😂) I end up with footage with interesting or cinematic subjects but not enough footage to give context. Making a mental checklist like this makes it a sort of automation. I'm going to try it on my next hike...
Thank you Jeven! So much value here. I always knew it's important to film an establishing, wide, medium, close-up shot. But this makes it easier to understand and follow!
Incredibly helpful video. I’ve been looking for this very information and BAM! here it is. My mind is rushing on how to use this rule in my DIY videos to make them more interesting. Thank you!
Love this Jeven! Something to remember when we feel clueless or just blank about which shots to take. I also liked the outro and the way you asked for subscribe without breaking the flow of the video. Very smart!!
I have an idea for a short film(my first one) and feel like I'm going to start shooting soon. This 9 shot rule has my juices flowing. Thank you for the inspiration!
Your videos have been so incredibly helpful for my videography journey and I can’t thank you enough I’ve been subscribed ever since your first upload and I haven’t regretted it one bit
Jeven, another masterpiece from you explained concisely and brilliantly! I am a huge fan of your work and your commitment to teaching your viewers, keep it up! Thank you. 😀
This is good, I’ve been learning a lot here. I was doing this without knowing. Bigger to smaller shots is what I’ve been doing in a conical format to end up drilled in or unique. Glad to see I was on the right path!
Absolutely fantastic Jeven the man that keeps on giving you’re very good at this and it’s great to watch you grow over the past four years I’ve been following you. I’d like to add that your studio is looking really good. Keep them coming mate. Cheers from Western Australia.
wow, i have been looking for exactly this info without knowing it. as i am more of a writer, just starting out, i had a bit of difficulty how to build a scene, and i perfectly can use this information for novel storytelling aswell. building scene with this technique and template will help me out manyfold. thanks a lot
Does this rule apply to real estate videos too? I often get overwhelmed at shoots when trying to figure out what angles to cover. Having a systematic approach like this would help
It drops but doesn’t matter. Overall the video is performing higher than usual and continues to get boosted by the algorithm which shows retention isn’t everything.
Well done thanks for breaking this down. Do you have a video going over how to creat pattern interruption clips / shots 🤔 I've seen a South Korean film called Carter. They have a number of especially something like punching through a vehicle to see the inside. I hope that makes sense 😕 😊
Very informative! Quick question, is angle, perspective and shot size all the same thing? I notice you and other creators seem to use these three words interchangeable, so I'm wondering if professionally, they do all mean basically the same thing?
9 Shot Rule, great tip! Appreciate all the examples as well. For the straight down hiking shots (which I also need for my hiking videos), did you attach the camera to a Peak Design Capture Clip and record? Or did you just hold the camera out a bit away from you?

Always your video is the best
Greetings from Iraq 🇮🇶 🎉🎉🎉
Wasn't this called basic shots 101 in film schools or so?
Thank you Sober Bert Kreischer😂😂

Funny how editing makes you more efficient in your shooting.
As Michael Bay likes to say..."shoot for the edit". Brings him in on budget pretty much every time.
Good stuff brotha

Completely agree. I know they teach this coverage coverage coverage technique in film schools, but you very quickly find it eats up time during production and editing and burns through storage space. More footage = more time = more money.
I guess I could practice just doing nine shots a day for 30 days and stitching them to learn the habit. Very cool idea
Solid advice. A phrase my dad taught me that applies across many areas of life…. “It’s better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.”
Boom! 👌
That couldn't have been said any better 👍
Not bad. Not bad.
So you’re against circumcision
@@TastySlowCooker if that’s where your mind decides to take it, I like improv comedy, so, yes and…

This is the video that has helped me the most in framing my shots. I now always keep this formula in the back of my head. Thanks a lot!

You do a pretty spectacular job in my opinion. Looking forward to the new build 💪

Jeven this is genuinley one of the best videos about filmmaking I have ever seen. Just brilliant

The thing I like most about your channel is that I keep coming back to it as I evolve in the practicing I'm doing. Thank you!
Bloody love this guy. Always something fresh to learn and never up his own arse. Beven you're a star
This has been the most useful video about filmmaking I have ever watched. Thank you.

This was one of the more helpful videos I have watched so far from multiple creators.
Thank you Jeven for educating us.. your videos are so much of a learning for somebody who liked film making but ended up being something else in life.
As a beginning filmmaker, this was much needed. Simple and solid. Thanks!
Don’t know how I stumbled across this video. I was just thinking about what shots to put into my video I’m working on and your vid pops up thanks
I’m always learning from you on how to make my channel better. Truly thankful
Thank you Jeven! So much value here. I always knew it's important to film an establishing, wide, medium, close-up shot. But this makes it easier to understand and follow!
thank you! this helps a lot. will try this for our vlogs as a band on tour

Loved this bro. Got those 9 shots memorized like I have a math test next week!
Great tips here, definitely going to use these whenever I go somewhere and don’t know what to shoot. Thanks!

Jeven, another masterpiece from you explained concisely and brilliantly! I am a huge fan of your work and your commitment to teaching your viewers, keep it up! Thank you. 😀
Thanks for this Jeven! I'm going to be doing more outdoor adventure content this year and this will help me a lot!
This is good, I’ve been learning a lot here. I was doing this without knowing. Bigger to smaller shots is what I’ve been doing in a conical format to end up drilled in or unique. Glad to see I was on the right path!
I always appreciate your how to videos. Easy and clear to understand and helpful. Thank you! Cheers
Dude, been doing video for years and this is a game changer for me! Thank you so much for this! I knew it was a good idea subscribing to your channel!
Thanks so much for this!! Such a simple succinct way to think about catching all the shots.

Just perfection thank you !!!!
Awesome mini training. Thank you.
thank you . Learnt something today.
Glad to hear it!
Thank you, is the final video on here please? I was wondering how you would connect the different b-roll in to your a-roll. Thank you Jeven
Yes here it is: th-cam.com/video/RSnU8TzJMb8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=f1FEWqMrXp1LGuXZ
Good video on planning shots using a system. Next can you talk about composition and that chair and weird tube light destroying your shot?
Awesome, thank you 💪👊
Great guide. I’m excited to try these out. 👌🏼
Excellent, and eye opening. Thanks for sharing, Jeven.
Rocking the Ombraz sunglasses. Nice. Best sunglasses on Earth and for the Earth!
The best!
This was awesome, thank you.

Short sweet and to the point! Great stuff!
Glad you liked it!

These types of videos are awesome. I just looked up your original version of this video. Keep up this type of content!🎉
Glad you like them!
I love this video!!! Thank you, I really like your content. It is amazing!!!😍💚🧡💜
Thank you so much!!
Hey I'm famous @1:30 🤣 I never get tired of seeing myself popping up in any of your videos.
Thank you so much Jeven! I loveeeeee your idea of 9 shots! That’s brilliant!❤
Great pieces of advice here. Thanks you!
You're one of the few people focussing on these concepts and in such a helpful clear way. Thanks a lot!
Fantastic information and great explanation! Thank you 👍🏻
Thank you this is super helpful and I need to remember this while shooting anything
Thank you so much. It was a great lesson for me as a beginner.
Great workflow tips.. For longer videos, do you just add another 9 shots
Great, Man! Thanks for sharing!
Jeven, Awesome content as usual! You must be videoing or editing 18 hours a day, 7 days a week! I don't know how you do it!
so far i've seen two of your videos and very informative!
Thank you for the simple breakdown
Great tips. As for grading, I prefer colors that are much more vibrant and perhaps just below the threshold of too much (so that it's not too much 🫢).
Thank you so much for this valuable information sir ❤
Great formula, thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Another awesome video! Thank you!
Thank you for this, very helpful!
Value hit hard and fast on this video.
How’s the retention after the 3:00 mark with being so front loaded in value?
It drops but doesn’t matter. Overall the video is performing higher than usual and continues to get boosted by the algorithm which shows retention isn’t everything.
Thank you sir ❤
Well done thanks for breaking this down.
Do you have a video going over how to creat pattern interruption clips / shots 🤔
I've seen a South Korean film called Carter. They have a number of especially something like punching through a vehicle to see the inside.
I hope that makes sense 😕 😊
thanks so much this was very helpful
Simple and clear. Thanks.
Very informative! Quick question, is angle, perspective and shot size all the same thing? I notice you and other creators seem to use these three words interchangeable, so I'm wondering if professionally, they do all mean basically the same thing?
Thanks Jeven. Very helpful esp. for us that is new to vlogging.
Great tips Jeven, thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!
Thanks Jeven for the tips!
Thanks, Jeven. Sent here from a video that Jake Sloan made. Cheers!
Thank you for this!
Helpful vid, tnx much
9 Shot Rule, great tip! Appreciate all the examples as well. For the straight down hiking shots (which I also need for my hiking videos), did you attach the camera to a Peak Design Capture Clip and record? Or did you just hold the camera out a bit away from you?
I just hold the camera for that top down shot
Great advice. Really cool.
Love this! Want to start vlogging will defo use this tip thanks
Excellent as usual!!!
first time here, good stuff Jeven.
This is epic advice, thank!
Genius method!
Liking this, cheers Jeven!
Awesomeness! 👍
