    I love the long unedited parts of these videos. Sometimes creators try to make everything look flashy, but production is usually anything but flashy. Nice work man!

    I love how calm and polite you are in your videos, unlike those TH-camrs that are all hyped up the whole time for no reason. I can see also how this long and slow process of getting to where you are now has kept you real humble (not that you didn't deserve it before or you weren't as humble, don't get me wrong. I think people that get there too fast suddenly don't have their feet on the ground, and I think you clearly do, despite your huge talent). So I am so happy for you!
    loved everything in the video. please keep it up!

      Couldn't agree more. I can't stand the youtubers that put on this fake hyped up persona just for their videos. It's cringe and you can see right through it. Love how Gian is just himself.

    Gotta say, your conversation with Lee from 21:30-24:14 is of extreme value to me. The creative give-and-take and need to adapt are what I love the most about working in the field with other folks - and it's also the hardest to describe and quantify. Thanks for sharing, and I can't wait to dive in to the rest of your work!

    Being able to watch and hear the communication and problem solving on the train platform was super educational.
    Also, I used to be an actor before I moved behind the camera. I was in some bigger budget commercials like this one, and seeing this made me miss it a little. haha, darn it!
    Great video man!

    One of the most accurate videos on what it's actually like to work on a commercial, the long uncut conversations were so insightful.

    A lot of DoP’s tend to be “yes men” and don’t often offer constructive criticism, I LOVE that you’re not like that and are highly highly proactive.
    Also Cudos to you for such an original TH-cam video format, showing people a peak behind the curtains of a professional commercial film set.
    Don’t know how you have the energy for that, I work in post-production in the same field as you and DO NOT have the energy to also run a TH-cam channel at the same time 😂

    So glad i bumped into you on here. This was really eye opening as my productions are way smaller for now. Seeing the crew work together, how you communicate with each other and the thought, time and effort that is put into every single shot is amazing. Thanks for showing all this!
    My take away is, that i can really take more time for shoots and not to try and rush through too many shots. Having had some disappointment on the editing side because we did not do another take or worked on the frame on the shoot i now know that it‘s worth it and that this is what separates the shot from being kinda ok to being really good.
    I‘ll be watching a lot more of your vids for sure!!
