Absolutely, I'm glad I can help! I use the Sennheiser MKE600 shotgun mic and I just plug that strait into the top handle of my Sony FX3.
Thank you so much for watching the video my friend, cheers!

Great video, typically I would just throw the light without thinking of what it’s doing to my shot in my story. I wanna get better at lighting a scene to have motivated lighting To help tell the story.

[@foxandcrowncreative]

That's awesome, I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Absolutely, lighting can have a big impact the story for sure. For me, it's super fun to work out the lighting and try a combination of techniques to achieve the look I'm going for. I just really love the problem solving aspect of the process. 🎥💡 Keep making videos and trying new techniques and you'll start to see some really cool results before you know it!

I always watch your videos. I’m a student and I appreciate all you do and I learn a lot. How did you create the hologram ?

[@foxandcrowncreative]

That's amazing! Thank you so much, I'm so glad the videos could help!
The hologram was super fun to make but it was definitely a process. First I had to light it so that it looked like the hologram was right in front of me, and I also had to make sure I turned on my light at the same time my hologram appeared on screen. I have a video on how I lit it, I'll leave a link here if you're interested.
That was a lot of how I was able to make it work. But in addition to that, I just took a screen recording on my phone as I was scrolling through my channel, I also had to time the scrolling on my phone with what I was doing in the scene, then added the screen recording to the scene in the edit. Then I angled it to match the frame I shot, so that the hologram appeared to be right in front of me.
After that I used Lumetri Color in Premiere Pro to give it blueish color and match the lighting I had when shooting the scene. Then I added a mask around it and feathered it out, and lowered the opacity. After that I added a couple of VHS and tube TV overlays to give it more of that holographic look, and completed the same process as I did for the screen recording, in terms of masking and coloring. I also did the same process for when I'm tapping on the holographic screen. And that's it!
There was a lot that went into it. I'd love to make a video about how I did it someday, if that would help. But this is the gist of how I did it.
I hope this helps! Thank you so much for watching my videos on my channel and for reaching out, it truly means a lot. Cheers, friend!
Here is how I lit the scene: th-cam.com/video/dU4FqLC7QfA/w-d-xo.html
