We Killed Our Camera Car. This Is It’s Replacement.

- The Motocrane had incredible potential, but we might have been a bit overly ambitious with regards to permits and location scouting. Our new rig for shooting car reviews is smaller, quicker to set up, and draws less attention.

I absolutely love the fact that the older this channel gets, the more chaotic good comes out in each video release
Chaos is our passion ❤️
They now know that we find THEM entertaining, despite the content
@@BrandonHavardIs the G-wagon an upcoming video?
As someone who has worked in the creative tech industry for over 10 years...I'm extremely impressed/ jealous of you guys and your resources.
Y'all do some really cool shit!
But can they polish shit, like the Mythbusters?
❤️❤️
The storytelling and edit of this video was the best from this channel so far, loved it
One of the best studio videos to have come out of this channel!
Agreed!
One of the studio videos of all time
That intro graphic to irl shot transition was 🤌
The fact I just watched through the ad reel shows that Brandon did a hilarious job! Hahaha!😂
got the ad job done 👍🏾
the ad reel was AWESOME
Have to say, Brandon killed it hosting this video. Hope to see him on that end more! Also I see him almost snagging Marques' outro and then the sudden 'bye'🤣
Killer solution!
Wym, I would've done the same if I had 50 spare grands.
I'm a helicopter cine camera operator for a living, so I know how f*ckin expensive rigs can get. I must say, although this isn't a super cheap solution it's definitely all around the most reliable and streamlined that I've seen in some time. I love crane shots, but they're SO bulky and the amount of moving parts just throws wrenches into every planned shot. Well done!
❤️❤️
Gets the shot… that save time and more money.
sounds like a really cool job 👏
Are you kidding me with that intro/ transition @ 0:30 ?!? So good!!
I'm not an AV guy so maybe I'm not understanding what's impressive about it. Just looks like they zoomed out.
I appreciated the price breakdowns and the cheaper alternative options too. Great video.
As a camera assistant in the filmmaking business, your follow focus unit and wireless transmission are the best budget option in business. I've been using the nucleus with teradek and smallhd unit for a long time and I must say I love seeing this use in the studio as business as well!
Love seeing a studio video from Brandon, he's such a great creator! Please do more like this!
absolutely awesome, honestly would be epic if you guys tried a modern day spin on top gear and you have to do challenges using certain tech devices, would SLAP
"would SLAP" With Will Smith?
Man, a Top Gear type quest by these guys would be soo sick!
I never thought I'd actually rewind an ad segment, but I did. Hilarious! Well done (and the rest of the video is pretty amazing, too).
That is the only sponsor ad I've ever voluntarily watched on TH-cam. Amazing.
Pick up a Tilta Fischer 3 to Nucleus 7pin cable (Part# RS-03-AM) and plug it into the V-Raptor’s front RS port. That’s a possible solution for your remote start stop.
That’s the comment I’ve been looking for, thought the same thing!
Exactly, works like a charm and they have cables for pretty much every camera.
The Ad section is so Brandon and I LOVE IT! Great video as always! :)
Beautifully made video! Absolutely loved it.
The narration, the graphics, just the overall production and edit is so fun to watch.
i love how this channel is starting to feel less like mkbhds side channel and more of its own thing the vids are rlly good and feel unique now
I usually skip the sponsorship part but that aesthetic advertisement was dope AF
Love to see progression. If y'all ever need an extra hand in any automotive production Id love to help out!! Cant wait to see what else y'all put out!
Hi, for the Start\Stop recording you just need the Tilta start-stop Cable that runs from the Nucleus motor to the CRTL port on the camera, the you can press record with the Nucleus Controller, works like a charm, i've used it with every Red camera.
LOVE the way how you guys shot the ad
I love the studio team and the studio channel, although I am a student but I'll wish for a team like this in my career. Appreciate your efforts bro😊
This video is just pretty awesome. From start to finish
No comments on it but I for one am very excited for this teased G Wagon video. Is that Auto Focus? Wouldn't have expected it!
Great to see Brandon’s distinct ‘box’ ratio during the ad-break. And with that, I’m still here waiting for Brandon’s next video🥹
Appreciate you, babes ❤️
Awesome editing. Love to see the experimental aspect.
I gotta say that this was one of the only advertising inside a video that I didn't skip.. well done, Brandon! It was quite funny.
Editing and content from the studio is probably most definitely my favorite :)
great video but that sponsorship spot went way too hard hahha. love it
The rig is really nice! In my opinion it’s not a janky as you make is sound in the end…
For the monitor mount, mule-carts or ratworksengineering are making special accessories to fit on the front headrest and mount any accessories using 1/4 20 screw
For the remote start/stop did red change their Lemo pin for R/S ? I know that you can get a cable from tilta to trigger old dsmc 2 body from the nucleus
Otherwise you might be able to use an adapter like bright tangerine trigger nato rail that get you a 3 pin fisher port to trigger the camera
wow, this is new. i have been following studio kanal since the beginning and this video is very different from the previous ones. The color grading the composition of the videos using creative texts that sometimes interact with the background. very strong!!! I particularly like the color grading. If you would release a LUT with this effect I would buy it. the whole shots were more in the style of Asteroid City (Wes Anderson).
If I had a dollar for every time I seen someone compliment MKB and the studios color grading and composition, I would have more than one dollar. That is for certain.
This felt more like a *havard* video than a *the Studio* video
i know this not what the video about but daaam that ad was so good and i think this is the first time i saw an entire ad, and this video was absolutely fantastic.
Bravo guys and keep going
You have multiple options for run/stop on your RED package. You could run a R/S cable from the Tilta motor to the R/S port on the camera and have R/S controlled on the Nucleus unit. You can also control R/S from the Ronin 2 controller with a DSMC2->R2 R/S cable.
As a remote camera engineer, I'd quite concerned about the lack of safety bonds on this. Wouldn't want to see what a Ronin+Red combo would do to a car if it fell off on the motorway!
Good point. I'm imagining a cable solution like Formula 1 has when a tire breaks off the hub.
I promise you, we take proper safety precautions. Appreciate the concern ❤️
And that unsecured monitor inside the car, not to talk about not wearing a seatbelt 💀
Can we show that ad some love? I didn’t even skip.
I miss working in productions like these. All the crew are somehow jank and creative at the same time! The rig itself is great and focuses on unique features to produce that great money-shot. More power to you guys! Kinda want to see more behind the scenes production stuff like this.
Super interesting how while I was watching this as an outsider I was thinking "all these batteries, why not just plug it in?" but you actually built to be battery/modular first, and then are going to add the ability after the fact to be plugged into the current truck because it offers that option.
Just interesting how my initial thought was to build specific for the Rivian first, but you folks built for "any car with a hitch" first.
Lol, I loved the sponsor segment a lot 🤣🤣🤣
Love the experimentation of videos on the channel. Love the video, huge congrats to Brandon 🤘
The tow hitch rig is way more inconspicuous compared to car rig which was cool but unrealistic
3:53 that might be the best sponsored segment I've ever seen
For run stop I’d suggest using the nucleus and getting a 7pin to 3pin r/s cable. Should connect I think to the 24v 3pin rs on the front of the camera body and will also supply power to the motor. There’s also the 4 pin ctrl port but I’m not sure if the nucleus is capable of firing with that cable on the dsmc3 bodies. Haven’t tried yet. Looks like a nice setup! Don’t forget some safeties!
love the ad editing
Beautiful setup. Kudus to Marquese for assembling The Avengers with such creative superpowers
One thing to note, always safeguard your setup from potential failure. Having that setup fall off might cause a disaster especially in high-speed public roads.
the sponsor bit was so brandon havard that it might even have been a dbrand commercial on his own channel 😭
That intro animation and transition was just *chefs kiss* (as usual) 🥵🤯😮💨🤌🏾
Would love to see a Studio video on the making of this intro. It’s dope af
Ad spot was on point 😂👌
V-Raptor, Bolt 4K, Ronin 2, Nucleus-M, SmallHD... You guys are living my dream.
Now you gotta make a trip over to Ohio and film some cars with us 😉
And now they done did 🤗
I admire your work a lot guys
When I saw what you use to control it I was there, these guys are ready for a titanic trip in that Rivian. It's gonna be epic.
For the camera start stop, tilta sells a cable that goes from the motor to the control port on the red. Works great. Been using essentially the same setup for a few years now.
You should be able to set up run/stop with the tilts hand unit. Dope rig!
That ad made me realise how much I miss Brendan's Dbrand ads
Is this graded with cineprint ;)
Super awesome to have a way to raise and lower the entire rig on the hitch to get high angle shots.
Well done. I’m nowhere near a professional videographer and I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
So great to see one of productions again
Is this what you mean when you said
'might fuxk around and make a video'
That ad mid video was hilarious, loved it!
I would go on SDI cable any day over the wireless video. Ronin has a nice connection for SDI via slipring and one cable going in the car shouldnt be a problem, specially if youll run power cables as well to the ronin. I had too many problems with wireless video in my life so if its possible i just do cables, specially if there is time to set up. Also less latency for a focuspuller.
Also I would suggest to get the back of your truck black for any reflections in the hero car and put some rubber skirts on the back of the wheels for when you are driving on a dirt road...
This was the video I needed today. Thanks Studio!
The ad part is so good that i just watched it through like a part of the video
best episode so far, the sponsor ad is genius
Ahhhhh the Auto-Focus style intro!! Nah love everything this team does!!
Don’t get me wrong, I love the main channel, but the studio channel is the place to be, everyone is just an awesome character 🤣
I liked the Lark max video more than the camera rig commercial.
this is so cool! I have 0 knowledge about video making so getting to see how you guys create your content is super interesting 🤩
NICE NICE NICE! Keep it always locked before shoot, every piece is damn expensive but thank you for sharing the EXP, learned a lot about camera production today. Looking forward for the next video and its evolution
the ad was so freakin funny its probably the best ive seen in a long time!!
The intro is absolutely insanely beautiful
Only in video ad i watch completely 😄
This is sick. That sponsor integration gave me the same vibes as the Planet Money TikTok lol. Nice!
I would see if you could power the camera of the hitch power. Would make routing the wires simpler, and its already in ~12v. Also more power efficient but that's musicale when considering the cars battery size.
the sponsor segment was so smooth😂
thank you for captions! deaf filmmakers need them! 🤟🏼
That ducktaped lens hood is a cherry on top
The sponsor spot was bad in a very funny way, then it turned around and it was very good
That unsecured monitor will become a deadly projectile in the event of a crash. There's various options to rig monitors into the back of head rests
That sponsorship section looked like one of the ads by Saul Goodman in Better Call Saul😂
I extremely loved the 1000 mile Road trip you went back 2 years ago. Please make a version 2.0, maybe with different parameters!
That intro was incredible guys
I love it. Very impressive and I like the old tv style
That rig reminded me of the time when FreddieW hung out the back of his station wagon to get the shots for the drift race for VGHS season 1.
Ahhh good times. :)
That intro was 🔥
Love getting a peek behind the curtain from you guys, looks like a ton of fun too!
The amount of work you put in these videos makes me wonder whether TH-cam pays you the same rate it pays others.
I’m also thinking of joining the channels now… this is just an example of the serious investment this team has put in videos.
I love you guys so much… I just hope you get a solar guy to start making videos on your channels with these nice angles and explanations 😎
The ad read is the ultimate chaos in the best way
I really loved this new colour scheme used in this video....
lol that ad was awkward...i love it
if youre already thinking about adding a power solution that involves plugging into the back of the rivian why not also run a cable into the cabin for a video feed / controls?
Greatest ad Ive ever seen
Tim cook saying good morning got me 😂😂😂😂
This is officially my favorite video in the MKBHD ecosystem 🤣❤️
That lark max commercial tho 😂😂😂😂😂😂
