I find it particularly odd that people have to have “underrated” or “less popular” favorite directors. Nolan is far and above one of the best directors to ever hone the craft in my opinion. Do I enjoy other directors? Of course. But since my favorite happens to be one of the more popular ones I am unoriginal and boring haha? You’re an interesting fella my friend. All the best to ya!
Very impressed by your night photography. Takes a vision and patience to meter, wait for the moment, hit the cable release. Nice photos with warmth & detail. Well done.
Love night photography, but have never tried long exposures before. Looks like so much fun, just waiting for the image and colors to incubate. Beautiful images
I'm a bit burned out on Portra lately (after like 10 years of using it almost exclusively for color work) , but I love how the colors work with the longer exposures and night work. Awesome.
Jamie Maldonado very understandable! Finding situations to expose this film for 30+ seconds seems to give some different results which is nice. Really wasn’t expecting the colors to render that way, but pleasantly surprised for sure! Thank you!
The films that Kodak have recently introduced having even better performance that what they used to offer has got to be at least in part because of all of all of the enthusiasts like yourself shooting film again. Thank you.
So awesome to hear this Bob. Film has completely rejuvenated my interest in photography. It truly is a beautiful medium. Appreciate the kind words. All the best!
I like the shots of the VOLVO 245 at 2:35. Composition and colors. THE CAR that is seen the most in movies. Built from 1975 to 1993. There are still many Volvos 240 out there. A reliable save car for the eternity.
It just means that the light sensitivity of the film gets lower the longer your exposure is. To compensate this you expose for a longer time which means you get more light. A good app is Reciprocity Timer. Costs about 2 dollars but is definitely worth the money. Not sure if you still need the explanation but here it is lol.
You do great work. I really enjoy these urban evening scenes. I don't shoot as much film as I used to and when I was in Bali last year, I did a number of long exposures at night on digital. Big mistake. I guess it must have been the extreme heat of the environment warming up the sensor which made my images horribly noisy. Massive amounts of chroma and colour noise which ruined a number of these images. I really regret not bringing some film along on that trip. Lesson learned - if I'm travelling to a very warm or hot location with some opportunities for night photography - bring film.
Can I ask what camera model it was that you shot with? And also, it looks like you're using an electronic shutter release cable. I need to know more about that as well haha
One question about long exposure with film. How do you know how many seconds should you press the shutter to obtain a decent exposure? The light meter in my Minolta only recommends up to 1/1 of a second.
Check out mylightmeter pro and reciprocity+. When doing long exposures you have to calculate reciprocity failure. A quick TH-cam search on the topic should give ya the info you need!
great video and pics... would be great if you included your metering process too - if you meter for shadows or highlights or average them out. Cheers :)
Usually I average, if I’m dealing with a very bright light source I’ll usually meter slightly in favor of the highlights. I’ll try to include the process more in future videos!
Your photos are incredible! i honestly think you should have just waited for those cars to move, then you would have got an outstanding shot which could have lived on.. if it was me and i had to wait an hour i would even if it was the only shot i got that night
I'm not a fan of photographing "nothing". It seems to me like this is just something that's trending among people who shoot analog photos, I guess cause people like Willem Verbeek do that. But at least, that's his style, this is just copying a style. If I took those photos with a smartphone, no one would ever stop more than 1 second to look at them, but since "it's film", it almost seems like THAT makes them artistic. I still feel like color, composition and cool ideas are key in making good photos, you can't just take a photo of absolutely ANYTHING with a film camera and call it a piece of art, unless maybe it's a series of photos with some thought behind it and a recurring theme. It seems to me like some people just want to let the "portra 400" do all the work with the cool tones and colors, and they just read the exposure value and press the shutter button randomly at any freaking object or house in suburban areas.
Totally onboard with your analogy of this style of photography, I often wonder how these guys even take themselves seriously and aren't bored shitless by their generically own similar photos to the other people in this genre. There's only so much you can do with urban scenery without becoming repititive and stifled .
You make a point. But you also completely miss the point of this medium. This is a vlog-style TH-cam video from a very solid content creator and resources like this are invaluable for newer photographers like myself looking for examples where we see others testing out camera situations online. It’s not trying to be anything else. Photos are also straight gravy. If you want this to be a referendum on “what is art in 2020”, you’re just gonna end up mad. It sounds like you hatin. You can use the lessons provided or leave them.
This. I also start to get bored seeing this repetitive contents by film photographers. It's pretty saturated and it feels like everyone is just following the trends. I mean they're cool photos but it gets tiring.
Im visiting Portland in August! I’ve lived in Illinois all my life and have never seen an elevation higher than like idk a hill. I’m packing light but stacked haha
Not bad. I appreciate you trying. th-cam.com/video/66qIsYIz9Fw/w-d-xo.html If you want to see a finished product video on the same subject go watch this guy. It makes a big difference to the viewer when a video presented by someone who has a firm grasp of the subject. Quality over quantity wins in my book every time.
Could you do a video to teach how to calculate reciprocity and shutter speed?
Loving these follow alongs man. Down to earth, good sense of humor, and can DELIVER THE GOODS! Volvo shot is fantastic.
Thank you!
Yeah, that volvo shot made me think about my dad who had one just like it
I thought this was Verbeeck
This guy's favorite director is Wes Anderson for sure.
Hahah a very reasonable guess, hard to sway from Nolan tho.
Brae Hunziker you’re a really predictable banal character
HAA
@@Zach-bt2ky maybe suggest some directors for him to check out??

im a simple man. i see a film related videos on youtube, i click it
Just beautiful! My favourite time of day is in the evening when the sky glows blue like that.
uploaded on my birthday and includes some old cars, you sir have got my like and a new subscriber
Haha awesome! Appreciate it!
These videos just pump me up to go out and shoot!
Love to hear that!

Damn the photo with the Volvo is really nice dude!
Good pacing on the video as well!
Mathieu Rabary thank you, Mathieu!
Awesome video! What app do you use to calculate long exposures?
This made me want to go out and shoot long exposures again on film, but at this hour. Cheers for the inspo
please make a video on how u use ur light meter pro app for long exposures! TT-TT
I'll make a video on it soon! Thanks for the recommendation!
Can someone help me understand reciprocity? but like really really simple lol. Also what's a good app to calculate so I don't f it up.

Amazing video!! What calculator for reciprocity did you use??
Reciprocity+
Love the shots and the scans. Portra held quite well during blue hour. Thanks for sharing!

WHERE CAN I BUY A PRINT OF THAT VOLVO PICTURE
Prints should be available soon!
Heccckkkk yes
Are you pushing the film at all ?
Nope!
Hey, how do you calculare reciprocity?☺️ any app that may help?
I use reciprocity+ !
Can I ask you where did you buy your jacket and if you have the link to buy it?
Adidas employee store. If you search adidas corduroy it should pop up.
@@BraeHunziker thank you ❤
May I know how do you add on the shutter speed together with the appeture?
hey Brae, which font are you using in the video?
I think it’s called futura 57
@@BraeHunziker thanks, mate!
What shutter cable release you’re using?
Cheapest one on Amazon, they break easily tho lol
I love long exposures
They deliver a whole different type of feel for sure
What shutter cable release are you using?
Just a cheap one from amazon
Anyone know the specific app that calculates the reciprocity time?
Reciprocity+
@@BraeHunziker thanks so much. Amazingly well done video btw. Love your style of photography and film

Was considering it, but was filming a video so had to move on unfortunately :/
you’re amazing!
Thank you!
what app do you use for reciprocity stuff
Reciprocity+
I am tempted on trying this on DSLR though... Has anybody tried it?
What tripod are you using?
neewer carbon fiber
@@BraeHunziker thank you!
Where do you find a reciprocity tuner?
Reciprocity+ is what I use
You are THE guy i looked for because i love bronica anda i wanna buy the ETRsi. Regards from Chile!
What light meter do you use?
just the mylightmeter pro app
Did you shoot on 120?
Yep!
Niiiice!
What app are using to get exposure bri

would buy the last frame
Means a lot, thanks!

Your idea of Nothing, vs your idea of Something is completely subjective though.

I’ll move to Portland for u to be my mentor, and ill bring donuts
Say less

The reason why film photography is a joke nowadays is because its photographers now all look the same for the sake of hipster “aesthetics”
