really appreciate your honesty and insight man! One of the few individuals who really goes into the nitty gritty of just existing within the industry as an up and coming DP
Thanks man means alot
Love working with G&E who have way more experience and knowledge than me. Can definitely seem a little intimidating, but I feel like once you realize it's not your job to tell them HOW to do their job, it's so freeing to be able to just "dream" and "imagine" how you want the image to look and then convey that to the crew. Love when they turn that vision into a reality. Plus then you get to learn a lot from them as well.
Open communication , trust, and teamwork has helped me in photography.
Buddy, I’m seriously so fucking grateful for this video and to have found your channel in general. There is a serious lack of mentorship in this field and to have someone that has gone through the steps and is able and willing to share this information is truly invaluable thank you thank you thank you.
this was amazing to watch! love the transparency and vulnerability! know that you’re definitely not alone, DP work, production work, crew work, however you look at it, it’s just like any other job in that there is a certain workplace dynamo and a lot of that falls on the Director and DP. it’s awesome to see you evolving and leaning into those leadership qualities and i think it’s HUGE that you can even recognize that necessity to be vulnerable with your team. keep going man this was great!
Hey jarred thank you for the kind words means a lot!
Thank you for sharing this. I went threw the same things as an AC and now as a growing DP. It can be very stressful working in new environments and/or with new people, especially during preproduction, when many interrogations are on the table (gear, crew, organization, etc). During the first call/mail, I always think about how the project would fit into the career I pursue AND if I have the skills to do it. I often struggle with this second one, relating to the imposter syndrome. It's like being scare of the unknown, not being able to look to the future, even if I know I should go ahead. Most of the time, I handle those new experiences well and it helps me grow in the right way, but this feeling still comes back when a new shooting scenario hits my brain. As you know, every shoot is different, so I guess I will overcome this as I do more jobs threw the years, moving forward.
Thanks Bastien!
This was very deep Carlo! Thank you very much for every word and every video you give us. Love you!
Congratulations!.. I really believe amazing things are coming your way.. keep it up bud !
Man I watch a bunch of your videos, and I'm schocked of how mature you are, despite your young age!
You're really a kind of "force tranquille", and I like your mentality
Keep it going like that, man. I'm sure that you'll accomplish greater and greater things in your life!
Thank you so much, for putting all this experience into a video and expressing some vulnerability. Really needed these times. :)
Had my first major project as a DP at Abbey Road Studio, every single point you made I can relate to. Especially felt sereal having so many people looking to me for what I wanted. Pre-Production was full of anxeity of if I could even do the job and almost got to handing the project to someone more experienced. I'm so glad I pushed through all the self doubt. I learned so much. Pushing out of comfort zone pushes you in such a positive way.
Thank you for this brotha! Definitely got some much needed info👍
Thank you! This is probably the most important lesson for me right now because of the psichological side of the problem I have for years as a good photographer, but who does not do projects anymore for 3 years, because I used to think that my photos are not good enough to charge monoye for it. When all my friends who see the pictures I did in years of doing that job, are telling me to go and shoot cause what I do is fantastic. But I don't believe it. Somehow in the years I lost my motivation for the most important job or hobby of my life - photography.
Yo this was all so well spoken! This mentality is vital to so many aspects of life. I would also say probably a huge factor in getting repeat work. When people can sense the genuineness of your character and demeanor they just want to surround themselves with more people like that!
All the best bro and hope to work together again soon!
Hey Gian! I came across your channel 2 weeks ago, the first video I saw was a day in life of a commercial cinematographer part 1 and I instantly connected to you. I follow a lot of filmmaking related channels but your content just stands out for me, looking at you inspires me everytime I watch your videos, looking at you makes me believe that I can make it as well. I don't comment a lot on videos, but, watching this video made me want to appreciate you and your content. Thank you for reading this far and thank you for inspiring me. Keep up the good work! 🙌🏻❤️
Been following you for a while man and honestly you're one of the most inspiring creators for me. Very useful and put simply content, keep it going man👏🏻
Thank you so my h
Absolutely!
This was super insightful as I haven't had the opportunity to work on a job of that scale yet, but this has made it seem much less daunting!
I think you make a great point about leadership. It's more about putting other people in the right position to succeed than it is having to know everything yourself. Good stuff once again.
amazing gift and humble
Fantastic.
Wow, this is one of your best videos you’ve made so far! Really enjoyed you being so open and vulnerable and it gave me a lot of insights! Can’t wait to grow to your level one day! 🤲🏽✨
Thank you I appreciate that
Hey Gian Carlo, just want to say congratulations! keep killing it! Thanks for sharing this love the transparency and vulnerability.
Thanks for the kind words man
Dropping so much knowledge in one video. Thank you Carlo!
Thanks bro
Only love for you man.. I'm putting my step as a DP now and setting up my team. This is so insightful would surely help me alot❤️❤️
I confess that I am quite addicted to your content🙈😅
I hope everyone I work for watches this video.
Grear thoughts and wish you luck in your upcoming career. Keep on going…
I come from senior management in the corporate world before totally changing direction and moving into videography. I like your humility, your honesty and your calm disposition. These are great qualities you have that will hold you in good stead for your future success. Keep doing what you are doing.
Thank you!
Lmao this reminds me of the first time I tried to gaff a project. At the time I had no experience (and I mean 0 experience) with HMI's. But some how bullshitted my way into the role. The set had road closures, a professional vehicle stunt team from roadshow studios with decades of experience, and about 150 extras. As I was half learning how to safely use HMI's I had to provide the stunt coordinator with insight on my lighting plan. I had everything worked out in preproduction but being on that set was so chaotic I definitely hurt the production's time schedule.
Take the netflix contract if you're ever offeren and live your dream bro. It's just like you said in the beginning, if a producer or director reeaches out then it's because they see something in you or your work. They will set you up with the crew, director, and producers you need to be successful. After all, it's a shared risk for them to make a return. You got it bro!
Let's gooooooo! Big project!
Yes sir!
love the journey, keep pushing!
Thank you!
Really great video, man. Thanks a lot! Just been through the same thing recently. Got presented with an opportunity to shoot a short film with a big grew and some difficult locations. I was very scary and uconfident about it. Even wanted to turn down the offer but eventually decided that I have to push myself cause one time I'll have to take the risk anyway. So, I stepped forward and it turned so good and not as hard as imagined at all. Just like you said I was relaying on my team to do their job and they did well. Fear is killer of art and it's our most important mission to fight him back😌
Amazing! Love to hear this! Push your self
awesome. congrats on leveling up and thanks for the insight.
Much love man
I am in my final stretch of college for a BS-Digital Cinematography. It has been so challenging to find someone to even get my production hours. So many we will call you back, or wait until you graduate. It got me down a little. But I’m not giving up! I’m praying that doors open for me! I love the authenticity of this video❤ I work full time, in college full time, and also trying to build a business. I think that may be the issue with me finding someone to work with as well. But no one wants to hire a student. And I have two children to provide for. It would be hard to go long without pay.
Thanks for the comment! DOnt give up, youll find a way. I wish you the best of luck
Love your transparency and vulnerability learned a lot from your video
THanks man! Glad it helps
@@carlostigs yeah no problem
Good content mate :) sub. Keep it going, I’m on similar position as you right now
Thanks!
what camera are you filming with ?
u go into the actors role and know what they gone do
Smart words. Thanks to share with us bro.
Thank you
First!
Kinda feels this video was about nothing… I’ve only been shooting student films for a year but I didn’t get anything out of this. Just some feedback…
