I always feel like I owe him some money after watching these things lol
He gives so much great information!
K Soul I agree
Me too
Don’t skip the ad and you’re essentially doing that.
K Soul I know right!!?? This is the best video on film and sound.Thank you thank you. I’m telling everyone to follow and subscribe
Same, and I'm a cheap ass mofo.
I have done over 40 interviews at this point and this is absolutely spot-on and incredibly accurate full of pro tips. Fantastic job guys.
This was the best 22 minutes ever spent on a tutorial! :) Finally a video where EVERYTHING is covered on a professional level. Not only camera stuff, or only sound stuff, or only lighting stuff... Props also for creating a really good looking end result, a level that paying clients can expect from a professional. Awesome job!
This is brilliant! I' nowhere near the level where I could film an interview that would resemble what you did, but the way you managed to promote your course while teaching something useful to the audience is truly inspiring.
This couldn't have come at a better time. Just this morning I had a great idea for an interview, which quickly turned into a lot of questions on how to set it up. Thanks a lot for yet another awesome tutorial!
No joke, you helped me get my job at BYU as a videographer/editor. We’ve been shooting some big stuff, but in my interview we talked shop and a good chunk was stuff I learned from your videos. 🙏🏻
Man... BYU?? Awkward school..
Alessandro Pepe Exactly what I was thinking.
That's how it's done! Good job man!
@@pawaradesilva9269the mormons are a cult ,change my mind
@@blakeok952 no need to change anything i guess lol
This is easily the best video on how to shoot an interview on the web. Perfect amount of details without going overboard. Nicely done.
This is by far the best education I have received from a youtube video on this subject!
Had no intention of watching for 22 min, but your videos are seriously just that good Parker haha
So true man. Those slider shots are so crispy
watched at double speed... now its only 11 min ;)
Yeah same here. I saw 22 mins and thought I would watch maybe 5. I watched the entire thing. This is also the first video of his I ever watched.
Same!
well said ...301st like for u
One of the best tutorials on TH-cam hands down.
I’ve been shooting video for 15 years and never thought to ask someone to talk about themselves for the sound check. 😂 Great idea, because when you ask them to say something, it’s true, they go “Uhhh... test.” And then I have to ask them to keep talking.
Michelle Osorio's Dare To Dream School hmm
Michelle Osorio's Dare To Dream School and then they start saying “ummm I’m here sitting in a chair.. filming an interview...” in like a totally unnatural tone haha
I've been shooting interviews for years, and never considered "shadow side" for the second cam. Thanks for the great take-away!
This could not have come at a better time for me. I'm literally shooting an interview tomorrow and one of my favorite TH-cam film makers drops this on my head 🙏🏾
Parker Walbeck I know you did man, I know you did
Me too and I wasn't even searching for this, it just showed up as a recommended video
Always find myself coming back to this channel when I have a big project going
So clear, So sincere. So objective its a breath of fresh air from all the other garbage info channels on whole of TH-cam. I mean WOW!
I just filmed an interview yesterday and this tutorial was absolutely invaluable! Thank you so much for providing such amazing content!
This is waaaaaaay above my level, but I still really enjoyed watching! Right now I still film videos on my phone, but I'm trying to learn more about the technical side of making videos before I upgrade. I want to learn not only what gear would be best for the type of content I create but also how to get the most out of it. Again, I loved watching! I learned a lot! Thank you~!
This is the best tutorial on shooting an interview. Great video. Thank you
The very best. I jusst shared the link with my team here in Nigeria
By far the most informative video I’ve watched in my effort to learn to create quality Q&A videos to help market my law firm. Amazing!
sharing your knowledge makes you not only a generous person but allows the viewer to follow you and be part of your training classes... Great Job
Wow. I seriously cannot thank you enough. Your courses free and paid have breathed so much knowledge and more confidence into pursuing my dream of creating visual content. Greatly appreciate you sharing all of this!
this vid just saved my life. shooting a really important interview on monday
I am just curious...did the interview work out for you?
Your videos have helped me out more than the 4 years in college did. Thank you for all the quick tips and detailed step by step in every video you post. BIG FAN!
Can't recommend this course highly enough. So much value and knowledge shared from Parker and his crew. I bought in 2017, I still use it, checking out new and old videos. Money well spent.
I'm all the way from South Africa and this channel is amazing. I'm glad I found it!!
Parker, I’m so looking forward to working with you guys. I have lived my Professional Dream in public safety now it’s time to grow my studio. I love the energy you bring to the game!
This was really one of the more incredible tutorials I’ve ever seen on TH-cam, for any subject. Thank you so much.
Parker I don't know how long ago was when I signed up to a youtube channel but you have truly outstanding content. Professional, to the point without any bs, enjoyable to watch. Really love it! Thanks
The thing with "expensive gear" is that you're also teaching amazing foundations that can applied to pretty much any type of gear. Great video, I learned a ton
This is very informative from setting up to asking questions in the interview. Thank you for this tutorial!
This IS THE BEST VIDEO on interviewing set up on YT.
The end was GOLD, knowing how to relate and engage a person on camera will land you gigs alone.
This was SUPER helpful!! I get so hype for these tutorials!!
I feel you bro! :)
This was an amazing tutorial. I can't thank you enough for putting this content up.
This was something as rare as a first class instruction video and an intelligent commercial at the same time, think I've never seen something like it before (quality-wise) - hats off.
The best video tutorial I've ever seen. Held my attention for 22 mins too. Thanks Parker!
i love your tutorials. excellent job mate
This is so phenomenal you are a pro
You seriously have the best tutorials on the internet. Thank you for always bringing the value.
the last time I heard broad and short lighting was in Photo School, now I'm watching these and loving your advice, easy direction, and clean videos to follow. Keep it up!
This video is a fantastic reference.
Thanks a lot Parker! Nice value in this video!
So cool. I came across this video a year or two ago. I’ve done a little bit of video work, but not consistently. Now I plan on doing an interview series, so I came back to this tutorial. I noticed that I remembered almost everything, which goes to show how extremely good Parker is at explaining and demonstrating, but I also picked up a few minor points that I want to remember for my upcoming shoots. Thanks man!!!
This is the most inspiring and uplifting video I've watched. Thank you so much for sharing this story, it made me cry.
You are giving us so much information we need tnk u ✨
Audio tips on point!!!!
Everything is on point here, lol
Agree, this was the most useful for me, although generally I prefer to have a sound mixer in the crew. Schoeps mic for the win though!
It is insane how much value is in this video. Thank you for sharing your work, I enjoyed this video immensely!!
Wow. He knows his gadgets, composition and all the technical tips ... and then moves smoothly into interview techniques. Very cool that he covers all of it.
Sound good
The slider idea is interesting. I’m not a huge fan of the speed you’re on, (too fast for my taste) but I think it looks very cool and absolutely has it’s place. I wouldn’t really see myself using the sliders for an interview but who knows. Maybe one day it will come in handy. Awesome video, I really did learn some things I’ve never thought about. Thank you!
That was a three day course in 20 min. Thanks bro 👊🏻👍🏻
I learned so much from this video 🙌🏼 I actually come back to watch this particular one often so I can refresh myself. Thank you, Parker and team!
I didn't expect the mic to sound so good, but as soon as the dude in the white hoodie started test talking, holy crap, the audio is just mindblowing.
Best Tutorial so far, You just earned another Subsciber
signed up for your course well worth the money!
Dude what a gorgeous clip this is. So well made. It can easily be on tv. You are so good. You are a videography legend that's in the top 1% in this world and you're continuously getting better. Thank you for existing. You actually helped me a lot. I watched your video before my first real estate shoot.
I was stupid because I didn't know how to use a camera, knew nothing about shutter speed, ISO, f stop, white balance, NOTHING like absolutely nothing. I had the Canon 650D (crop sensor 18mp) And I bought a stupid 80 or so dollar camera stabilizer which I had no idea how to use. And I just picked up the Spark which I was very scared of using, only had one battery which lasted 15 minutes and was operating it from my water damaged iPhone 6 which kept losing signal with the drone.
I fucked it very royally. But I knew that I performed 10,000% better than I would have before watching your real estate video because I had absolutely nothing to start with and would've had to rely entirely on my imagination. Which can kill a person if they rely entirely upon it and not reason and knowledge.
Now things have changed. I somehow decided to pursue this even though I wanted to quit at and after every single shoot. Got a sony a7iii, to do some better quality work. And now I realized there's still at least 50,000$ worth of shit I need to be able to operate at a more professional level. And definitely a lot of learning every single day, deliberate fucking learning to make sure I am prepared to handle anything that comes my way.
I'm now making content for businesses full time and eventually learned that there's so much more to a camera than just pressing the button to take a photo. There's so much knowledge to be gained about human relationships, direction, equipment, time efficiency, charging people the right amount, getting paid, marketing, sales, editing. FUCK !
I wanted to quit every day of my life for the last 12 months because it was hard. It still IS hard! I often want to hide under the blanket and not face the day because I know that I'm 120% gonna hit challenges that are beyond my level of experience. It's important to keep going and to become a pro like you because eventually there are less of those days, and instead of making 120 mistakes at a shoot, you may make 1 and that's not a big deal because you'll learn from it and profit from it later.
Bottom line,
Thank you for being such an amazing communicator, a leader worth following in this beast of an industry and for being persistent and diligent enough to make such legendary content.
God bless you man,
From New Zealand,
Nicu Castravet
I always come back to this video just so helpful. I'm getting ready for my first interview shoot next week and this is so great to watch to get me ready!! Thank you!
SICK VIDEO AND THANK U FOR EVERYTHING U MA TEACHER 🔥
Looks great 🍻 that's a nice day light loft
Bring in the Lidar Scanner!
Cinematography Database He ain’t got nothing on you
This is one of the best tutorials on the subject I've seen.
This guy is right on the money. Every possible detail is covered. Amazing!
Tq for your info, rahmat from malaysia
Love you man!
The best video and mic instruction I've seen.
Not 1 second was wasted in this video! Bravoooo
Great stuff!
Question: When setting up the 2 automated sliders, do you need to worry about them hitting their end points at the same time? Do you offset their start times? I assume you don't want to use the end points where the camera reverses course. Great video - thanks!
Pay wall! Lol
So why do we shoot from the ‘shadow side’, as Parker puts it? This use of light and shadow for faces goes back to classical times, it’s about putting everything that’s not important in the shadows - so the ear that is visible to the camera is always in the shadow. This keeps the focus on what’s most important - the eyes and mouth.
You can apply the same principle to any other object you’re depicting - from an egg to a a chair to a house. The light is never where the camera is - always to the side, with the shadow ‘on the camera side’.
One of the best videos on this channel, thank you, Parker!
That was amazing. I was completely immersed in the interview and it made me want to get into full time filmmaking!! Love it
Awesome video, really helpful, well constructed and very well made. Thank you for all the tips. Top quality shit!
Few questions: Do you use all these mics for backup and then decide which is better depending on the angle ? or what's the use of so many for just 1 interview? For example there is the rode ntg3 above the subject but i see 2 others also above him, why?
I love how you take the time to prepare your set before the interview meticulously , I wish I had this luxury. It depends on what you're shooting. In my case I'm most of the time running, people I interview are busy business men or important bankers who don't even give me the opportunity to scout the location before the shoot, or even let me do tests before starting, I usually have max 5 mins for basic sound check, setting the lighting and framing and then ready and go. Then they leave and I have to manage with what I have ( and it better be good). I feel your tutorial is awesome for documentaries or similar contents, it would be nice if you could make a tutorial video on how to make a fast and efficient set for extreme situations when time is at the essence if I may say.
Thanks!
I specify the shoot agenda in the brief beforehand so that they don't rush me
@@davebird4406 I get you Dave, but some clients are so important that they don't care about your agenda, they claim to be extremely busy themselves and expect me to be superman as a videographer and I better be in most cases.
Great video!!
my pet hate tho is that sliding extra cam off to the side ... errgh. i hate when the client has been told (or seen ) something like that, and they ask for it. I prefer static and nice framing (and possibly one 4k camera only) so I can punch in when necessary. I mean, I'll do it if I have to.. but yeah... I actually cant stand when i see interviews like that.. the extra cut off to the side kinda shot. For me, it takes me 'out' of the interview... and it looks weird.. like "whats that guy looking at?" lol.
Its a great showoff gimmick tho! It would be impressive for the client to see, especially with the remote no doubt too!
Anyway, personal preference tho!
love your work!
The video gives me the idea of how many preparations are there before the camera start rolling. It's way more than I thought, really. Thanks for sharing so much
Thank you! After watching this vid, I have a lot of prep work to do before my first shoot!!!
I'm not in any Parker's training or anyones, period. And right of the back I recommend this to anyone, but not only Parker's film training, but anyones. Why? Because then you dont have be in debt going to school by spending tons of money and not getting experience. In USA school is a joke and its all about their profits. At least with this, you have the experience and the training. Good job man, keep it up. And for regular citizens like me and viewers, always get your training and experience anywhere else other than some school that is going to put you in debt. Be smarter than the system =].
Thumbs up. Italiy school is a joke also.
Pricopi Stefan Might be true that education in Italy is joke, but at least it does not bankrupt families and result in young people starting careers with a massive debt load hanging over their heads. Cost is one of the many reasons my sons will attend German universities and not the endless beerfest that is the average U.S. "university".
Some of the best advice you can get (or give) Is to just buy a camera and start shooting. And you can learn a lot by trial and error, reading, watching videos, etc. -just being involved in the craft. But while debt can be a major concern, structured learning environments often provide a more comprehensive point of departure from which to start a professional career. At least that's what the curriculum is supposed to be geared to do.
No one "needs" to attend university and I agree that system can be somewhat of a "racket." But you get out of it what you put into it. Not to mention-and I just had this conversation the other day with a friend of mine-so many people use their degrees simply as a point of entry into the workforce in areas their field of study doesn't even support. That's neither here no there.
I wouldn't bash uni just because it's expensive... you're going to essentially spend the same amount of time learning, gaining experience and making mistakes if you go another way, such as seeking an apprenticeship, which don't really exist the way they used to. And if you can secure one, often it's unpaid.
One of the intangibles uni offers is the cachet that comes with the paper, along with networking within the sphere of influence offered by those in position to help you that share your alma mater. There's no easy road. You still have to do the work.
Awesome!!!
Precise and effective tutorial ever watched on TH-cam.
I honestly wasn't intending to watch 22 mins of a video tutorial but the way you all shoot and speak is so engrossing that I found myself sucked in to the point that I didn't even notice. Awesome video, amazing team. When I have the money I'm definitely getting the course.
21:54 imaging someone said "nah, not really"
Dude, they didnt even teach me that about interview questions in my human resource management course in college
Exactly what we needed to see as we move in to production phase for Culture Shift. Thanks for the awesome content!!
Wow I'm a TOTAL amateur, I've just tried the tips you give on this video and they worked MAGIC. Thank you
Where can I get this background sound/music palyed at 19:52 ?? Its epic.
I would contact with musicians, idk, btw im musician hahahaha
Do you always prefer the cinematic motion with the sliders or do you ever go for still cameras? Also you have all that equipment but didn’t want to pack an ND filter! Lol
With sliders some juddering is visible on the background because of 1/500.
He didn't need ND filter since he was shooting inside in a controlled environment, he brought the exposure down and turn on the light and it worked well
For this case - probably. But I even noticed rolling shutter at 16:56... Personally, I am trying to use ND filters when its possible, cause juddering makes the image not cinematic.
Parker Walbeck I prefer to stay way from ND filters as much as I can, as no matter how good they are they do affect the image quality and the color science of the image. And as you said Parker, if you hadn’t revealed it no one would have noticed it!! ✌️
It doesn't really matter if you are doing color grading afterwards. You can have quality issues only using cheap ND filters or resolution higher than 4K.
This guy does a great job taking the basics and presenting it in an interesting way.
So inspired by your work Parker. As a rookie to the game I think this could drastically help. Looking forward to taking your course.
thanks man!
this saves you 8 hours of reading a textbook lol
I watch this video almost everytime I get the chance to shoot something for someone. Your tips are amazing! Thank you so much
Dude, unbelievably great education, explained superbly! I'm an oil painter, as a hobby, so the way you described all of this made so much sense. I'm just starting to fool around with video and audio, so thanks for the great help!!
One tip to add regarding the interview itself is to make sure the interviewee restates the question in their answer. For example:
Interviewer: What is your favorite things about shooting?
Interviewee: My favorite thing about shooting is collaborating with others.
Otherwise you could be left "collaborating with others" as your answer and in your edit you will have a problem trying to cut that response in.
Also, for some reason it seems common that people start their responses off with "So...". That becomes an issue when editing as well. Don't be afraid to ask the same question again to get a cleaner response in most scenarios. Although some might find it's less 'genuine' you're still getting the honest response just in a way that will give the best edit possible.
Yeah, good points! I was going to add the same comment about "restate the question". Cos most of the interviewees will just start answering the question without mentioning what was the question :P
The “Rembrandt” photo was taken by my friend. :-)
You sir are the BEST filmmaking teacher out there. Hands down. Thanks for this
This is breathtakingly clear, practical and helpful with great explanations as to why you do what you do.
Anyone else who doesn't know shit about cameras but is just watching for the heck of it?
ansaree97 cause it’s cool to pretend you know what they’re talking about.
Here bro! Lol!
Now I just need the expensive equipment
I just came across your videos through the rabbit hole. Wanting to learn how to do audio and visual set up with all that's happening around us with self-isolation, we need to go online. I appreciate your content and you're an incredible teacher. You not only train on the technical aspect but also on the process. I am excited and now more confident towards the direction of creating podcasts and streaming content. I look forward to watching more of your videos.
I have zero idea about photography and film making but this video just gave me a ton of information which is so basic and easy to understand! And because of that, I'm subscribing for more tutorials! Thanks parker!
>The average, which we refer to as RMS
Close enough I guess
Title update:
How to Shoot an Interview with 25,000 USD gear.
One of his sliders alone is like $3,500 lol
If you want to charge customers couple thousands for your work you gotta invest in gear first :) Btw you could get similar results with 5000 setup to start with. It would be with no sliders thought.
He started from the bottom up so it's cool
Lol, that's not really $25,000 at all. That's probably around $11,000-15,000 at best
@@JoeGunawanfotosiamo Oh yeah, way more affordable. Psshhh
Very professional tutorial. Can't believe I'm watching this for free. Really appreciate it Parker Walbeck
Wow! This was so above the level I'm at right now, but I LOVED watching it. I decided to follow you on instagram to keep up to date with what you're doing, and realized you're LDS. I love that you proudly put it in your bio--thanks for the awesome content!
