Appreciate that! Looking back now I should have closed with like a shot of me looking content on the beach as a mirror image of the opening shots. Lessons for the next one.
Always a joy to watch your work, Brandon! Your filmmaking style is so warm and inviting. How’s the S5iix treating you? I have a BMPCC 6K Pro myself and while the image quality is second to none, it’s incredibly difficult to film myself and only really feel like breaking it out in a fixed/controlled environment. Really looking into investing in another camera in order to film myself more and go out and about and have something more portable/handheld friendly.
Thanks! I’m still loving the S5iix, it’s my go-to really. I also have the 6K pro and use it in scenarios where I have more time and setup, but for day to day stuff and travel (or filming myself) I usually grab the S5 for the convenience of it. Plus it takes up a lot less space in my backpack when traveling.
Just tried subscribing and realised I was already subscribed 😄 When I see your work, it screams ART - composition, shot selection, pacing, colours are all perfection. Genuinely inspirational work and it's great to see that in a content rich world filled with gimmicks, there is still room for true art to shine. I have been on a bit of a colour expedition of late so I hope you don't mind me asking this having just binged on some of your older videos. Do you still use the JM film emulation as a base or have you moved on?
Thank you so much, that means a lot. And yes, I still use the JM FilmUnlimited as my standard. Generally now I apply it at the timeline and then make some adjustments to each clip if needed for whit balancing and power windows and stuff like that.
Thanks! I’ve found it to be good for travel, the weight has never been an issue and it’s small enough to pack in a small bag. I use a cage in it sometimes and that adds extra weight and size but it’s still my preferred travel cam.
Thanks! I tend to overexpose slightly, maybe a half stop, and then the powergrades I’m using do most of the heavy lifting. I think a big part is increasing the color density without too much extra saturation. The new Resolve 19 has a built in functionality for increasing color density that I’m eager to try.
Thanks! This was almost all done in the 6K ProRes 422 HQ to a Samsung T5 drive. A few shots were probably on the internal 4K All-I codec but I was recording to the SSD almost exclusively.
the ART of story telling! 😃
I thought about some narration but then I figured it would be a good challenge to try and tell it just visually
I like your work
Thanks 🙏🏼
You always make fantastic films by using basic mirrorless set. (not even Arri,Red and their Cine lenses)
Absolutely gifted.
Thanks! Really appreciate you saying that.
Love this, Brandon! Amazing storytelling, really nice work 🙌
Thanks so much! Really appreciate that🙌
Great story told through the lens. Epic looking grade 😎👍

As delightful as always. And good test of your camera's dynamic range there early on.
Thanks appreciate it 🙌🏼

@@brandonrude that's such an efficient way of working and the results are truly spectacular!! I'll give that a go - thanks for responding
Very nice 🙂
Thank you! Cheers!
Love your film. What lenses used?
Thanks! Almost everything was shot on the LUMIX S 35mm f1.8
love this and the sound design is so good! im curious, does the s5ii feel too heavy when traveling?
Thanks! I’ve found it to be good for travel, the weight has never been an issue and it’s small enough to pack in a small bag. I use a cage in it sometimes and that adds extra weight and size but it’s still my preferred travel cam.
Amazing shots and grade man! Earned a sub!
Thanks for the sub!
Nice video ! What recording format did you use?
Thanks! Pretty much everything was shot in ProRes to an external SSD.
Awesome stuff man! 😎
Thanks! 🙌🏼
Love the progression of clips and grading. How do you get such rich colors?
Thanks! I tend to overexpose slightly, maybe a half stop, and then the powergrades I’m using do most of the heavy lifting. I think a big part is increasing the color density without too much extra saturation. The new Resolve 19 has a built in functionality for increasing color density that I’m eager to try.
SO EPIC!! what codec do you use?
