Exciting news for aspiring video creators! I've created a free ebook, '5 Steps to Becoming a Pro Video Creator', to help you turn your video passion into a career. It's packed with practical tips and is totally free! Grab your copy here: geni.us/ZzWaZk and start your creative journey today!
I am watching alot of these how to film yourself videos right now and this one really stands out. As a filmmaker you gotta think of all the details, I really love it. I also bought my first camera to record clips of me and my friends back when jackass was popular haha
This video is stuffed with valuable information. This definitely helps me make better video's, as I mostly learn by example. Seeing a professional at work is so much better than reading books or listening to theoretical explanations. Thanks again for putting in the work.
This is absolutely amazing! I travel solo a lot and it’s easy to take a picture of myself, not so easy to record myself enjoying my destination. I wished I could have somebody filming me, well now not anymore!
You have great tutorials. I follow a few people on youtube but you are the one which i really learn the most from. By the way, a tip i can give you as a viewer... it is perfectly fine to make multiple tutorials of the same subject. Lighting tutorial for example. Although you tell your viewers the same principle over and over again, in the additional video, you give them more examples. That is something i and other viewers are always looking for :) Keep it up!
Vlogging hikes definitely adds miles to the hike and really can tire you out. I have to laugh, you trip on the stairs and tree root are perfect. I have been there and done that.
I like the way you say about things. Native English speakers like to say words but that doesn't mean a lot sometimes. In here every second it's very informative. It feels like video taken out from a filmmaker course. Great Job. I'm impressed.
Pascal, I recently found your channel and became a subscriber because of your simple and down to earth videos. You explain everything down to the lamest terms. Good job!
This was fantastic. Would love more video's like this. Most of my filming is exactly this, solo and outdoors. I feel like I learned a lot from this video.
@@pascalbasel I struggle with ... being creative... like that part where you climbed over the tree taking several different shots of the same action and cutting together was great. I think I struggle with getting those diverse shots and cutting short clips, I leave them drag on too much. I would like to learn more about the camera settings and how you might use the sun etc. Sometimes on a single hike I get footage that is so dark in some clips and so light in others because I’ve faced the wrong way or used the wrong ISO. You obviously pay attention to lighting around you. If I kept watching you make videos like this one I think I would learn a lot, the format is great. Feel free to take a look at some of my B roll and for you it might then become very obvious what’s done wrong and you’ll instantly know what people need to do. I can link you a couple of videos where I have made effort but it’s lacking something. First 5 mins of this I tried to be creative th-cam.com/video/u1u2M-JP8C4/w-d-xo.html (the rest of it is rubbish), and this one has some B roll sections too th-cam.com/video/xBTuiyzXjqQ/w-d-xo.html. My opinion is I just need to learn more about diverse shot angles, focal lengths, zoom etc and one day maybe I can capture a B roll clip like this one you did which the finished product was superb. (Sorry, long reply)
Very good tutorial on this topic, good job, thanks! Filming yourself and creating an interesting story is definitely not easy, I know. It is a very slow process when you try to get good looking clips and edit them together to get the story flow seamlessly. You did not talk too much about audio, but I find e.g. J and L cuts (and sound design in general) helping a lot in transitioning from a clip to another. Perhaps a topic for another video?
Yeah, lots of sound design in here, but that's another topic. It's a bit hard to make a tutorial as I use multiple paid libraries (Lens Distortions, Bryn Norths packs etc.). So it's more like going through the libraries and look what I think fits to the footage and story I have or want to create.
Hi Pascal, fellow LCA member, supporting the fam. I literally just puled this up on TH-cam and then saw your post on FB. Good info as I'm such a beginner and the more info I can get the better.
Danke für Dein tolles Video..😊… ich wachse so langsam in das Filmen rein ( macht riesen Spaß) da sind die Tipps, Inspirationen von Dir goldwert 😊 (ich schreibe deutsch, da ich vermute, Deutsch ist Deine Muttersprache)
Hello sir. I'm subhojit from India.. I Recently Started Watching Your Videos . Love Your Videos, Tutorials. Thank You so much For making amezing content like this..🥰🥰🥰🥰
Such a great tutorial, thanks 🙏🏻. I’m getting so many great tips to help me improve my mountain biking channel and B-roll is such a great addition. I’m filming with my iPhone and GoPro’s only so trying to incorporate all of your tips. I really appreciate your style and you make it all so uncomplicated and easy/enjoyable to understand. Thanks Pascal✊
Subscribed. I have a new TH-cam channel, and would like to be able to be a better story teller with video. I’ll be watching a lot of your videos to learn.
Hi Pascal. Great Video, it helps me a lot. It really needs time to do "only" some b-roll shots...but also it's fun to shoot them 🙂 your tips are very helpful for me because I also use a Fujifilm even I know cameras don't matter , it's always the same procedure... I would be very interested how you create your audio. Thanks a lot for your videos 👍😊
Thank you Stefanie, Fuji matters actually a bit as it saves so much time color grading haha. I use some paid libraries for the sound design. Can make a tutorial, but it's not cheap ;-)
Another great video tutorial Pascal. Thank you. It demonstrates how hard it is to get so many shots, let alone do the hike! 😅 I’m travelling (cycling) with my partner who gets frustrated how much time I spend on getting shots (including him), changing mounts, stopping, etc. If I start trying to film myself too he’ll go crazy! Any tips on capturing shots quickly so we can enjoy the ride too?
@@pascalbasel He’s improved his snapshots of me over the years…although my tutelage remains unappreciated. 🙀 If I had him video me it’d have to be wide shots; otherwise he’ll chop my head off! 🤣
@@pascalbasel that Forrest looks like it holds some ancient treasures. Perhaps we can do a video together after this pandemic is over. Drop me a line 👌
Sehr gutes Video. Das ist das erste mal, dass ich eine solch ausführliche Darstellung gesehen habe. Das hilft sehr. Weiter so! Danke Woher hast Du die Musik?
Really cool one and great tips again 🙌😃 hahaha the intro is so funny - that’s Pascal 😅...Wer hat dieses Mal dran glauben müssen, um dir zu assistieren? 😅
Super useful, thanks a lot for putting this together Pascal. Quick question: How did you capture your audio for this video? It's crystal clear! Would love more content around capturing audio/sound design! Keep up the good work.
Thanks Baptiste, I used the Sony EBM-B1M Mic with the a7Siii. So really just shotgun with a bit of normalisation and level adjustment in post. This mic is crazy good even you're a bit further away.
Can you do a video on how to shoot cinematic travel videos on a smartphone because some of us can't really afford a dslr or an action cam right now but still want to make good videos
I'm planning on doing some phone tutorials when I get an iPhone 12... currently on the Xr where I hate the colors at sunset etc. But generally most of the stuff that applies to normal cameras also applies to phones. You're just a bit more limited as you often can't zoom.
The camera that filmed me is the a7S iii. I used it with single point af + face tracking at the beginning, what seem to have these issues. When we switched to wide af, it worked perfectly.
@@pascalbasel I went up there about a year ago. As it happens I am planning to go up there in a few days as the blossom is on the trees now. Just bought a GH5 so looking for some colourful subjects 😎
For the talking part I used the Sony ECM-B1M on the a7S iii and the other sounds are either added from paid libraries or just from the internal camera mic.
*Awesome video!* 😍 I love the way you put your thoughts into it. I'll have to try something like this also on my channel 🤔 Hopefully it will look as good as your video 😊 Thank you for the inspiration 🙌 *_-Felix_*
I use my nikon d7200 for my videos, but it's so heavy to take with me. So if anyone would recommend a light camera or maybe a gopro I would really appreciate it.

Nice to hear Piyush, thanks 👍🏻

This video is stuffed with valuable information. This definitely helps me make better video's, as I mostly learn by example. Seeing a professional at work is so much better than reading books or listening to theoretical explanations. Thanks again for putting in the work.

Thank you :-)
Thank you very much, this is important for me👍 Which camera did you use (second camera); A7s3 or Xt-4.. Some parts you lose focus on your face..
The camera that filmed me is the a7S iii. I used it with single point af + face tracking at the beginning, what seem to have these issues. When we switched to wide af, it worked perfectly.
@@pascalbasel I have both camera too and I search to learn which mode is perfect option for focus... Thank you for your answer.. :)
Yeah, for face tracking, wide seems to be the best. I'm still new to Sony, so have to figure everything out.
Thanks, very useful for me. Where in Thailand did you shoot that? I have been living in Chiang Mai for almost 4 years now.
Thanks, I shot that at Doi Pui Summit. There is a nice nature trail to there. You know it?
@@pascalbasel I went up there about a year ago. As it happens I am planning to go up there in a few days as the blossom is on the trees now. Just bought a GH5 so looking for some colourful subjects 😎
Ah great, we saw the blossoms on the way back. They are already at the entrance to the path. But probably more beautiful in the monk village.
Great tutorial, learned a lot, but I'm also very curious what you used to record the sound in this video?
For the talking part I used the Sony ECM-B1M on the a7S iii and the other sounds are either added from paid libraries or just from the internal camera mic.

Thank you 🙏
@@pascalbasel no problem 🙏🏿
Thanks for the video. How long does it take for you to edit such sequence?
Only the sequence took be about 4 hours, including color grading and sound design.
