This seems great! Question: do you ever feel like you are hindering and locking yourself in, when using storyboards, so that you are so glued to the storyboard, you don't get to find your own angles and do the creative stuff on set? I feel like I would struggle with that myself. When do you use storyboards, and when do you not use them? Any spesiffic projects? I have mixed feelings regarding storyboards and pre-vis, as I feel all the creative stuff in my head gets out on the paper, and then I have kind of already "done it" brought it to life, and the magic is not there as you know what you need and how it will look, kind of. It is a good thing, but the creative part of me is sceptical. Probably just that I have never used anything like this before :-)
Hi Vegard. It's a good question. I like to be creative and use my intuition on set as well, especially when we are a smaller crew. I would make storyboard for projects where we have some time for pre-production but not much time on set. I would also do it for bigger projects with a bigger crew, where people need to be on sync on what's going on. And especially do it if there are a lot of VFX, like the Måneland project we did: th-cam.com/video/CefWU7670wo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Phum_UegND2CilM2
@@Andyax That makes sense, thanks for sharing! It is smart to have it so that the whole crew understand what we are going for. Even if the director has the plan in his head, does not mean the rest of the crew are on the same page. I will considder something like this for my next big project :D
1st one …. Can’t wait for me to be like you one day … thanks for inspiring me and am now growing in TH-cam slow by slow God bless you … I can’t wait to make even a collaboration with you one day bro 😊
With regards to adding the light, I think they should add profiles for specific types of light so I have a couple of newer 660s and sometimes seeing how the light is in something like this might help for when I actually film that way I can adapt the filming process when I actually do something which has been my biggest issue with those two lights
@ in a future update I’d also like to see a measurement distances between the light and the subject in question. I don’t know if that’s something that would even fit into the software regardless the software looks cool and I hope to use it myself in my own learning, it’s just I sometimes have trouble getting the appropriate distancefrom light to subject when I do the odd test.
@ I graduated Fullsail university and they didn’t really teach much practical. I’m really writing down stuff to keep some of the skills going right now. What I’m doing is a PC build video with parts I have lying around so in terms of lighting not all that exciting but I am working on a Stop Motion project writing it mostly and a sort of cyberpunk-ish John Wick thing also writing. I am in preproduction largely for both of those projects.

Let’s grow learn ❤❤ let’s gooooo 😊
This looks super fun! I've only used Polycam previously for mapping garden design and do various measuring. Have to try this out!
Totally awesome. It should make pre-production much easier to communicate.
Agree!
Good to see Thomas back
Beautifully put together!
Thanks
amazing! thank you
"and he can start practicing his walking" 🤣
As always perfect :)

Don’t try to be like him, be yourself.
Awesome & Thanks :)

Great idea @maxwelljacobs2715 ! We are actively working on bringing different light types into RADiCAL, so stay tuned :)

@@maxwelljacobs2715 again - great suggestion, and giving scale is something we're also working on! What kind of projects are you working on?

Your thumbnail waaaaaaay under sells this video!
Hehe. We're open for ideas! :)
