ackchually......quality instant coffee is generally pretty good and better than "real" ground coffee off the shelf. Coffee off the shelf has gone rancid long before you buy it. So either drink freshly ground, as in you just ground it, or instant.
it's always a good starting point when you get an idea for a video. Start with that, should be smooth sailing from there. If it takes you more than 10 minutes to answer that question - the idea prob needs to be re thought.
“If I made it this far...” I’ve been following since 50,000. When phwhats up started every video. Those of us who have been subbed for that long always watch until the end. (Especially for the bloopers lol)
We went wayyyy far from it to ever be able to get back. I think we need a new app for that that would use its software to determine when the shot was taken and how and choose to either accept the upload or not. That’s the only way! Lol
Suit yourself! hahaha Personally, FOR ME, the commitment, and curation of my own collection of photos, is what makes it fun for me. Challenges me to go out and create things that I wasn't even sure id be able to continue creating. Upholding my own standard. its kept me going on IG from the day I started the account, to this very video. xoxo
That space has so many insane angles 🤯 So many people get caught up in socials and don’t realise the reality of the bts! I think the BTS is the best bit. But that’s just me 🤙🏼
casually midnight and I physically can't watch the video right now but just wanted to acknowledge that I enjoy your videos so much and few days without you does not go unnoticed, I value every second of your videos! thank you for what you do!
I like this! Shows how you can make simple things can look 🔥🔥 (even muddy boots) with the right placement and skills. P.S. Those card skills are 👌 P.P.S. Did your dad make that guitar hanging in the corner of the room?
No, the one he's made for me is at my house :) I wouldn't want to hang it due to humidity issues - Plus my dad would freak if it was basking in sunlight like that hahaha. Thats Tom DeLonge's Guitar. :)
Whaaaaatttt! Pete's drank instant???!!!!! LOL! Thanks for the insight into your flat lay process and the Insta reality check. I recently joined on a FB page that celebrates the birds of Central Texas. It already bugs me and makes me sad when I hear budding photographers bashing their work compared to someone else's (mine included). Trying to encourage and being kind is something I've learned from you and a few others. I'm often letting those who are overly critical of their work know that there's so much learning value in the process and in discovering what facets of picture taking that you are passionate about. Thanks for being a part of my growth in the art of photography Pete. Blessings to you and your family. Be safe. Looking forward to you and Matti hitting the road one of these days again! :-)
This video was seriously so great. I really felt you talked to me when you said "you" like three times. Thanks for everything you're doing for the community.
Please keep doing this kind of video, it helps me so much in college, even more now that I’m doing this stuff at home. Gives me motivation to keep studying photography.
@@rebeccabrodkey Thanks, such a true comment. I manage to get great photos with my phone but the feeling of having a photo camera in your hands is unique.
Living in a place where photography is considered just a cheap job ( wedding photography mainly ) gives me some sort of negative thoughts about photography but seeing your videos assure that photography is truly a fun and a sophisticated art form ........ Thanks Peter bro regards from India. :)
Wow, when he just revealed the photo I was mind blown, wasn't expecting that it will look that cool. Peter your amazing, always a fan. Gilgit, Pakistan.
😂🙌🏾🥇 Mannnn! I thank God for Peter.. I'm a photography hobbyist but at times I just come to watch his videos cz of his energy and aura!!! Man you really uplift my mood and I'm much happier at the end of every clip!! 🏆 Like I need a dose of a video a day😅 You're doing much more than inspire folks to get better cinematography and photography! Love you dude. Be blessed
I've been trying to get into product photography for a while and this kind of video really helps me when I'm not feeling super creative. Awesome video, Pete!
Oh man, I just bought my first Benchmade today and can't wait to get it! And then this awesome video shows up in my feed! Sweet photos! Product photography is something I struggle with, but hoping to step up my game a bit. Your videos are always a huge inspiration.
What’s up Pete, you have been such an inspiration to aspiring photographers/filmmakers like me. In fact you, along with Mattih and Daniel, inspired me to start my photography journey and start sharing videos on youtube! Just wanted to share! Thank you for being such an inspiration to us all! More power man! Love from the Philippines! 🇵🇭
“Quarantines doing weird things to us all!” I learned how to solve a Rubik’s Cube for one of Pete’s Insta challenges and now I’m on to a 5x5. What is happening😂
I’m just watching this today but it inspired me to do a flat lay for my grad cap and some of my memories for my college experience. It’s my first time doing a flat lay and you can definitely tell I’m still an amateur photographer, but it felt so nice today to just take a break from all the stress life has been bringing recently and just get back to something that makes me happy and something that is new! I appreciate all the tips too because it really helped me figure what I wanted to lay with my cap
When you’re on lockdown and can’t get your hands a bag of Colombian handpicked, lighted roasted with a hint of vanilla coffee and you have to slum it like the rest of us and drink that Nescafé instant coffee 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Welcome to that instant coffee Peter 😊
Hey Pete. Thanks for being so real. Enjoy what you do and how you do it. Keep it up, you have my attention. By the way, I really like the camera backdrop room but get the change and why you did it.
Confessions with Peter: "This morning. . . . I had instant coffee, and I kinda liked it" 😂 Also, that blood stain above your branded coffee is some serious commitment. That's more than a finger prick my friend. . . 🤨🤔
When Peter said "I have a confession" I thought he was gonna say "I have this mustache because I came back in time to the 80s to do porn movies". Instant coffee, really? NEVER!!!
8:45 Peter, I don't think it's called "cheese plate". It's been 5 hours, I'm still searching for it and I'm also feeling really hungry at same time. EDIT: Oh I found it. You have to search with keyword "metal cheese plate".
Hi Peter!! I'm a new subscriber to your channel and fellow Canuck! Just wanted to state that you are probably the most entertaining and efficient teacher I've found on youtube by far (as I'm a major rookie in Adobe products and camera tricks) and seem like the kind of guy you're instantly friends with! :) thanks for your amazing work and I'll make sure to tag you on my next video! We'll get through this!
First James Hoffman admitting that he sometimes grinds his coffee the night before for his drip coffee and Now Peter having instant coffee. My world is a box of lies 🥺
I also wonder hey, and the question I have is why dislike someone if you think you can do better🤷♀️ isn't it simple to just leave and skip to another video? 🤦♀️
Pete, THANK YOU! I LOVED this video! For whatever reason, flay lays are difficult for me! I can't seem to get a grip of what how I want things to turn out! This made a lot more sense so thank you!
I think a great way to explain what you are going for is "rationale and story". A photo is like a scene in a story and every item in that scene is a character of that story. The subject is the main character and everything else must be there to support the hero's story.
Dude great video. I have something in my mind though. You sacrificed a bigger space(that maybe will be needed for some of the basic angle shots) for your office that doesn't need that much space.
I'm kinda digging that other camera view with the guitar on the wall and the lights above and framed photos in the back! Also, it's funny you made that whole dope office space and then just end up in the front on your laptop. 😅 I do that same crap and it's nice to see I'm not the only one. Lol
More 'Raw' BTS looks at taking photos / making videos? Comment below!
Peter McKinnon Love you dear peter ❤️
Bro you are awesome ! Please can you reply to my comment !!!
Yupppp!
aND AWESOME VIDEOOO
U're the best😘
Pete: "I love Photoshop and doing random things" Me: *Immediately thinks of a mountain.
hahaha I think thats why he made that face
We are not allowed to bring up the mountain! shhhhh! haha
😂
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
He will never live that down.
You know the worlds in a bad state when Peter starts drinking instant coffee
It's a sign
the beginning of the end D:
almost hahahaha
ackchually......quality instant coffee is generally pretty good and better than "real" ground coffee off the shelf. Coffee off the shelf has gone rancid long before you buy it. So either drink freshly ground, as in you just ground it, or instant.
You know it's been going on too long when he says "It's not bad"
Me: dumping out the kitchen drawer because I got a cool idea.
Wife: God damn it, did Peter put up another video?
LOL
LOL, so true!
LOL
LOOOL
LOOOOOOL
What he said-"Pete's a magician again"
What I heard- "Pizza magician again" 🤦🏽♂️
You're playing too much of "guess the gibberish" just that this isn't gibberish 😂
I too heard same
same here
Same here; Does that have to do with his accent?
SAME. I came to comment that but saw you had already done it 😂
honesty one of my favorite channels on youtube. PERIOD!!!! LOVE YOUR CONTENT MAN!!
'The idea is the what, the motivation is the why.' - Peter Mckinnon 2020 ;)
it's always a good starting point when you get an idea for a video. Start with that, should be smooth sailing from there. If it takes you more than 10 minutes to answer that question - the idea prob needs to be re thought.
@@PeterMcKinnon Thanks for replying Pete! Definitely something I will keep in mind. ✊

“If I made it this far...” I’ve been following since 50,000. When phwhats up started every video. Those of us who have been subbed for that long always watch until the end. (Especially for the bloopers lol)
For real. Been watching for years. Can't disrespect and not watch until the end. That's BLASPHEMOUS
For sure!
Try watching since he was just a magician :P
Yep! I had to scroll up and see his sub count (haven't checked in a while), nearly 5 million, that's so awesome! 😁
Was I the first one a long time ago that said PWHATS UP!
I wish Instagram was more raw and real like back in the day. I wonder if its time to change the grid to the good old days 😊 iphone only???
Matti Haapoja too right Matti, definitely don’t think it will be changing any time soon though
We went wayyyy far from it to ever be able to get back. I think we need a new app for that that would use its software to determine when the shot was taken and how and choose to either accept the upload or not. That’s the only way! Lol
Just change that to phone and not iPhone

Hello I am sub to you😁
That space has so many insane angles 🤯
So many people get caught up in socials and don’t realise the reality of the bts! I think the BTS is the best bit. But that’s just me 🤙🏼
OpticalWander agree!
Agreed!
Peter McKinnon I sent you Business Email btw, did you receive it ? (Samuel Bassett)
can some one explain me what BTS stands for? :o
Seeing that floor close up 🤩 It looks amazing! Great video as always 🤙🏻
Hey Matt , Nice comment btw. I'm guessing you are into Lightroom editing . Check out new video on my channel😚
casually midnight and I physically can't watch the video right now but just wanted to acknowledge that I enjoy your videos so much and few days without you does not go unnoticed, I value every second of your videos! thank you for what you do!
Appreciate this comment! Thank you very much! Hearing stuff like that fuels my passion! Cheers!
Love these random less produced videos
Hello Ali I am sub to you
So you finally showed your "true colors" 😂😂
Good one
Straight up, I enjoy your vlogs all of the time bro. Thank you. I’ve been following you for almost 2 years I think and I’ve learned so much.
Lay flat KING right here!🤴
Wassup talon is here
Feel such a sense of comfort while watching your videos Pete, no idea why ❤️ Please never stop!
Nescafe ain't all that bad in a pinch... and there's nothing "instant" about instagram anymore.
Definitely agree! Especially for travelers like us.
Nescafe is all i drink, it's pretty good well at least the coffees i make are da bomb!
Love the flat lay instas. I'd been using legos to raise things up but they weren't stable enough. Thanks for this!
Pete: my flat lays are not actually flat.
Everybody: 😲
Luke Molyneux hahahshshshhshahahhahahaha
The current office would be a great space for top down shots and flat lays! Kinda like the separate space that MKBHD always has ready for that stuff.
05:24 “you guys know I love photoshop and doing random things.” Let’s take a moment - again - to appreciate the desert/snowy mountain scenario 😅
Never Forget The Snowy Mountain. Never.
That crate is AWESOME. Even just the lid attachment concept. Love it so much. And yes - TEXTURE. It has so much personality.
Best intro ever 🔥🔥🔥
I love watching your process. That was a sick picture! I could watch your BTS of flat lays for days, hah!
I like this! Shows how you can make simple things can look 🔥🔥 (even muddy boots) with the right placement and skills.
P.S. Those card skills are 👌
P.P.S. Did your dad make that guitar hanging in the corner of the room?
No, the one he's made for me is at my house :) I wouldn't want to hang it due to humidity issues - Plus my dad would freak if it was basking in sunlight like that hahaha. Thats Tom DeLonge's Guitar. :)
u can say that again
Whaaaaatttt! Pete's drank instant???!!!!! LOL! Thanks for the insight into your flat lay process and the Insta reality check. I recently joined on a FB page that celebrates the birds of Central Texas. It already bugs me and makes me sad when I hear budding photographers bashing their work compared to someone else's (mine included).

Music, cofee and photography: Three things we have in common. LOL! I'm instantly gratified by watching your video. Haha!
This video was seriously so great. I really felt you talked to me when you said "you" like three times. Thanks for everything you're doing for the community.
Just started making youtube videos and this was inspiring ahah. The original footage looks way worst before correction
Please keep doing this kind of video, it helps me so much in college, even more now that I’m doing this stuff at home. Gives me motivation to keep studying photography.
Big fan. I'm a starter photography trying to get into a real camera.
Dario Pietro Vidili you can use any quality camera to take photos! As long as you have the vision that’s what matters :)
@@rebeccabrodkey Thanks, such a true comment. I manage to get great photos with my phone but the feeling of having a photo camera in your hands is unique.
Dario Pietro Vidili What are you thinking of getting?
@@rebeccabrodkey awesome!
@@rebeccabrodkey let's follow each other, if you want too haha
Every additional inch you show of the office is DOPE. Love it.
Posted 3 min ago and 2 people have hit the dislike...I don't even know how anyone could dislike anything from this guy!
Steph Davis you got this one right!
I guess it was because of the instant coffee
Steph Davis who?
@@miguelneves1128 😂😂
Steph Davis, Some people just live to dislike people's content

Me: 😂 *instantly likes video*
Maddison Wade instant validation
hahhah i was making one the time i was watching this vid hahahaha

I’m in love with your studio and office! Excellent layout.
Inspiring film makers
1- Peter McKinnon
2- Everyone else
Agreed
I think him and his different personalities can fill out my top three really
You need to check MakeArtNow for extra inspiration dude, pete and josh are awesome!!
Ever heard of Sam Kolder?
Y'all are too kind!

Love you dude. Be blessed

Peter: Makes the most amazing photographs.
Also Peter: Can't put on socks correctly.
He does but that photo was a bit too dark and could barely see the damn knife
I love that you show how you make the shot better with all the detail. Thank you.
Pete: Pete's a magician again.
Me: Pizza magician again.
I had the same thought like you
yahhh yahhhh
Awesome principle of the 'What' and 'Why'.. Thanks for the video Peter.. 🙏🏾
Pete why are you wearing two socks saying “R” not “R” and “L”? 😂😂
Pete never takes an L.
he's just always right
to be completely right ;)
Your flat lays photos is always SICK man. Always lovin' it!
Lol Pete, I've not touched my cards in a while, but this quarantine has brought the magician me back as well
I've been trying to get into product photography for a while and this kind of video really helps me when I'm not feeling super creative. Awesome video, Pete!
Pete: "Pete's a magician again."
Me: *not really paying attention*
Me: "Oh Pete's a magician again."
Also me: "OHHH....PETE'S A MAGICIAN AGAIN!"
*replays intro*
Seems like you felt unsure recording this but it was dope. Great to see you behind the scenes even further especially with flat lays.
wth this comment is from a few days ago!!
Kirk Lepiten what the heck?
@@TalonSei I thought I was the magician....
lmao unreleased video?
Peter McKinnon we agreed
What???
Been following you for long and have always been intrigued in reach of your videos. Every video has something to take ..
Thank you Peter! :)
- This is not the apocalypse, a few weeks and it's over !!
Pete : Hold my instant coffee
Oh man, I just bought my first Benchmade today and can't wait to get it! And then this awesome video shows up in my feed! Sweet photos! Product photography is something I struggle with, but hoping to step up my game a bit. Your videos are always a huge inspiration.
Challenge: Let your wife pick x amount of items that you HAVE to use in a flat-lay ;)
I like this series! Sometimes Instagram can be deceiving so it’s nice to see the real photos
01:14 " Pizza magician again" 😂
Max Soliman haha thought the same thing!
I had to rewind 4 times😆
What’s up Pete, you have been such an inspiration to aspiring photographers/filmmakers like me. In fact you, along with Mattih and Daniel, inspired me to start my photography journey and start sharing videos on youtube! Just wanted to share! Thank you for being such an inspiration to us all!

“Quarantines doing weird things to us all!” I learned how to solve a Rubik’s Cube for one of Pete’s Insta challenges and now I’m on to a 5x5. What is happening😂
Definitely got my thinking cap on now. Shooting flat is not something I’ve really done. So a nice challenge for lockdown. Cheers Pete!
That moment when you live minimal and literally don't have anything at home to use as props 😥

Nope, but now I have to check out his story to see what it was 😁
🙋🏽♂️ ugh. 😂
Me
🙋🏻♂️
Love the simple intro to this video with the "PM Vlog" in the flag - awesome!
Am I the only one who also thinks the photo from "before" looks half decent too?
Enjoyed the vlog Peter...watched the intro several times...amazing. Love to see more of that as well. Best wishes to you & your family.
Wearing socks that both say "R"?? Where did the "L" go😂
Hey Pete. Thanks for being so real. Enjoy what you do and how you do it. Keep it up, you have my attention. By the way, I really like the camera backdrop room but get the change and why you did it.

Pete‘s wearing two right socks😅 does that mean „Squarspace“-Pete’s wearing the two lefties?
Hey dominic, Nice comment btw. I'm guessing you are into Lightroom editing . Check out new video on my channel
Love your product photography tips! Would like to see more of this in the future!
Totally random, but that flooring is sick! Is that concrete with a resin coating? Anyways, thanks for this helpful and entertaining video!!

Loving the different angles!
Can you switch it up more often?
Thanks for the always great content!

Dude great video. I have something in my mind though. You sacrificed a bigger space(that maybe will be needed for some of the basic angle shots) for your office that doesn't need that much space.
loved seeing the process and just seeing someone take the time to set up a photo scene. Love the frame within a frame in the final shot too.
It may have been a "random video", but I actually loved it for the behind the scenes feel paired with the vlog style
BRO the Chair we have someone Capisco is a game changer!!! Great video too Thanks for your work!
Fantastic! Thanks for the tip to prop the knife up, never thought of that. Oh, you are wearing two right socks! heehee.
Your camera + lens are AMAZING!
