I think Jesse is probably the most underrated creator on this platform, these videos are of the highest degree of quality. Amazing stuff Jesse, we love it!
Holy hell man, the BAG THROW. I was sitting there thinking 'i wonder how many takes that would have needed?', then to not react out of excitement when you got it, or break eye line with the camera, and say your lines with conviction and the right energy, and then BOOM. JACKET THROW.
I kid you not, that was first try! I was actually rushing to finish so that I could meet up with my family and assumed this shot was going to take forever to get right. I was *supposed* to throw my keys away as well and forgot, but we were so happy with the first take that we just changed the ending to have the keys in the jacket and called it a day!
So true on being intentional with your shots and closeups. I’ve always enjoyed how Edgar Wright uses closeups in his films to drive the story or further immerse the viewer into the scene. Thanks for sharing this with us, Jesse!
Excellent work, and killer tips. I really like the way you simultaneously told the story while explaining specific visuals in particular (wide, medium, close). Thanks, Jay
OK, the shooting/editing on these videos are phenomenal. Been into photography for many years, and recently picked up video editing (I know, kinda a wierd combo, but there's plenty of overlap so I get the basic concepts) I just... see exactly what you are doing and get the basic sense for how you are doing it. Plain and simple, you barely have to say anything, you are showing it so well.
Many people teach filmmaking on TH-cam, but Jesse's points are on-point and the best explained. I just love you Jesse, hope to work with you someday. ✌🏻
Such a great video my dude! I love how storytelling, especially yours, keeps me so focused, especially with videos like these! You rock Jesse, just saying 🙌🏾.
It's good to see you again. Your edit trick my brain so hard I love it! Although the idea of putting an expensive lens in a bag with keys gives me pimples. Your advice is worth gold. Thank you Jesse.
Coverage, coverage, coverage! This is the main thing I try to impart when I teach my students in my film-making classes. There is no such thing as over shooting (provided you have the time and budget to do so) so I'm glad you mentioned it. For students new to film-making, they become so focused on the shot they think want that it stifles the flow of their film, not realizing that when it comes to the editing room unplanned shots often are the ones to save their film.
Jessie I must say I learn from every video you publish. I am SO excited to see the production of your new office as i'm sure many others are too 😁 From story telling tips to little lighting tips I pick up in each video, I do hope I am getting better at this myself.
One of the best storytelling videos I’ve watched…this is the only content creator that makes me want to drop whatever I’m doing, and go storytell by video. Brb 👋🏾😁🏃🏾♂️🎥
One of your best vids to date! Well done, Jesse and thanks for the tips.

Awesome!111 More stuffff like this please! This is what was lacking on other channels about filmmaking. Now i see connection between elements of a story and technical aspect like what shots to choose! Thank you Jesse!
I love using closeups as a replacement for establishing shots. If you cut to a home kitchen scene a closeup of water boiling I find a lot more interesting than an exterior of a house. Or a tirespinning shot from a car mount is just more intriguing than a panning shot of a car driving down the road
If you are a visual person this is so much easier to learn compared to watching a teacher in a lecture. I went to film school 5 years ago and and regret not doing TH-cam university instead!
OMG dude, you are FANTASTIC! Your videos are so, so, creative. It's amazing to watch every video. Is very immersive, wonderfully well done, and has a very good narrative full of knowledge. I love it!
Apart from the subject of the video the way everyshot is connected is absolutely great and keeps you in your feet to see what happens next! Bet the AVD is suuuper high! or at least i would expect that!
1. I still love your car. 2. yes, the emotions through texture. People should watch some Kurosawa to see how weather and environmental factors convey emotion
Do you ever do storyboarding to plan a shoot? Also, when getting a wide, medium and close shot, are you using multiple cameras at one time or switching lenses?
I’ve never been a big storyboarder, but that’s mostly because I suck at drawing and I do my best work in the moment. However Dave and I have been planning out these videos a lot more than normal so we at least have a rough idea of what we’re going to shoot going into it. As for the sequences it’s almost always the same camera, and just moving/zooming/switching lenses and repeating the action for each take.
Hey did you know I made a bonus TH-cam channel?
Now you do! th-cam.com/video/QFqfNEMOtHA/w-d-xo.html
I feel like "bonus" implies a certain level of quality... Lets just call this... a throwaway TH-cam channel :)
hell yeah INSERT SHOTS
Aw man, you’re just very good at this.
It’s true. I was thinking the same thing.
Thanks pal I really appreciate that.
Thirded! Great work.
I think Jesse is probably the most underrated creator on this platform, these videos are of the highest degree of quality. Amazing stuff Jesse, we love it!
I completely agree. Jesse’s channel is a value-packed bullsh*t-free zone.
Holy hell man, the BAG THROW. I was sitting there thinking 'i wonder how many takes that would have needed?', then to not react out of excitement when you got it, or break eye line with the camera, and say your lines with conviction and the right energy, and then BOOM. JACKET THROW.
ending was soooo good, simple yet brilliant 😁
Shooting the Storyblocks read at the gas pump was brilliant! It felt so natural. Also, invaluable tips about close ups! Thanks!
It’s always a good sign when you’re watching the same tutorials as a channel with 700k+ subscribers!
How awesome you connected all the scenes in the beginning!
You make me want to Film everyday just for fcks sakes!! Thank you Jesse!
how many takes for 4:12?? i went back 4 times to watch 😆
as always, I can't handle you guys. Ace video! 🙌🏼
I kid you not, that was first try! I was actually rushing to finish so that I could meet up with my family and assumed this shot was going to take forever to get right. I was *supposed* to throw my keys away as well and forgot, but we were so happy with the first take that we just changed the ending to have the keys in the jacket and called it a day!
@@JesseDriftwood absolutely nailed it! 💥
I love that you ALWAYS take the time to make what could be a simple one shot sit down video a whole cinematic experience to come along to!
Impeccable sequences and transitions. No exaggeration when I say, a masterpiece. Would expect no less✨
It was so good
I love the humour, it just makes the whole thing into a story whilst also imparting knowledge. So much learning!
Sooo good, Jesse. I love that you’re not obsessed with yourself. You’re not fake-authentic. You’re *properly* authentic. Thank you. 🦘
So true on being intentional with your shots and closeups. I’ve always enjoyed how Edgar Wright uses closeups in his films to drive the story or further immerse the viewer into the scene. Thanks for sharing this with us, Jesse!
You have such a wonderfully creative way of teaching photography/videography basics...oh and I forgot...obviously very entertaining!
Thanks for explaining closeups and other shots so clearly!!
Excellent work, and killer tips. I really like the way you simultaneously told the story while explaining specific visuals in particular (wide, medium, close). Thanks, Jay

You’re storytelling is just badass. I just need to watch two times. One for the story. One to learn. 🙏🏼 thanks Jesse!

Such a great video my dude! I love how storytelling, especially yours, keeps me so focused, especially with videos like these! You rock Jesse, just saying 🙌🏾.
Oh man thank you so much 🙏
F***ing loved this. Great tips here. Shakes the mind up a little from the typical workflow.
It's good to see you again. Your edit trick my brain so hard I love it! Although the idea of putting an expensive lens in a bag with keys gives me pimples. Your advice is worth gold. Thank you Jesse.
I wish I could give this comment a thousands hearts.
You share the best lessons for storytelling that I've found on TH-cam! Kudos!

I loved that line at the end! You’re absolutely right. So often my favourite shots were the ones we didn’t plan for.
Unbelievable. I just subscribed. This is the best channel about filming out there…period.
Jessie I must say I learn from every video you publish.
I am SO excited to see the production of your new office as i'm sure many others are too 😁
From story telling tips to little lighting tips I pick up in each video, I do hope I am getting better at this myself.
Taking alllll the notes
Also I can’t wait to see what you do with all the footage from your studio build!! 🤩
Damn, y'all are really good at this. Thank you for this video! Really well done!
One of the best storytelling videos I’ve watched…this is the only content creator that makes me want to drop whatever I’m doing, and go storytell by video. Brb 👋🏾😁🏃🏾♂️🎥
One of the most entertaining videos ever! Can’t wait to see your build out series!
When the notification came through I stopped watching Lion King to learn from you. That's how much I wanna learn from you. Thanks for this. I need it!
Haha thats amazing! Hope I didn't kill the flow!
One of your best vids to date! Well done, Jesse and thanks for the tips.
Awesome!111

Thank you Jesse!
Thanks Dave!
Your videos on visual storytelling are the best! Thanks for making them! 🙏✨🤗
Jesse, yours is the only photography channel I subscribe to . Excellent as always
This video flows so seamlessly! Do much work must have went into your preproduction! Great work Jesse, keep pushing the bar higher for all of us

Yup same!
You are just sooo damn good ! Like I can’t even explain it ! Your story telling is insane
If you are a visual person this is so much easier to learn compared to watching a teacher in a lecture. I went to film school 5 years ago and and regret not doing TH-cam university instead!
I always learn so much from Jesse. Thank you Jesse!
I really needed to see this!
OMG dude, you are FANTASTIC!
Your videos are so, so, creative. It's amazing to watch every video. Is very immersive, wonderfully well done, and has a very good narrative full of knowledge.
I love it!
You did it again! Such a cool and informative video! Loved the sponsor segment at the gas station!
So well visualized and articulated!
Well. This is just impeccable. Well done Jesse
I really love your style of teaching... there's a mix of humor/entertainment 😅🙌🏼
I'm always amazed how gooood you tell story with entertainment! Sugoi👏 Btw, love your Mazda Bongo!!
Thankful for the wisdom in the video for real 💯
You are too good Jesse. Also love how you threw your bag and jacket on the stand haha.
While pumping gas, I never once thought "Hey, I should film a bit here" but here you are doing exactly that. I'm certainly trying it now!
Apart from the subject of the video the way everyshot is connected is absolutely great and keeps you in your feet to see what happens next! Bet the AVD is suuuper high! or at least i would expect that!
Just commented on the Dirtfoot video, I am hooked here in the first 30 seconds, super happy my friend sent your channel over to me!!
very good job with the music and sound effects!

This is QUALITY. This is JesseDriftwood. I'll never forget his name and his work.
