Listen up everyone, all you camera review people can go kick rocks. Griffin C. actually went outside and showed you how to shoot in heavy light, no dumb intros, no dumb comedy skits, just a filmmaker with his technique and craft. Mad Respect Griffin, sersouly
^^ Yes!! So sick of TH-camrs showing how to “film in sunlight,” only to have a final image that looks like a fake HDR shot.
Great work, Griffin and team 😎
I’ve done my fair share of outside interviews. This is the way to do it! I love how easily you explain your process and the way how you get your images. You are a great resource bro!
Thank you so much Victor!
Wandering DP's influence in full force
This is sick. As someone who's had to learn a lot on their own, it's awesome to find content about the nuance stuff that only comes with experience. Thanks for sharing!
This is one of the top 3 best channels on YT! I learn something from every video! Thanks Griff!!
I see no lie here
Thank you so much Stephen!
I used to work in the church broadcast world up until recently and I used to use all of this commercial info you so graciously provide to scale up the systems we had. Your videos made a world of difference at my old job, now I’ve slowly started working as an integrator for other video system installs. I never fail to catch your videos, always something new to learn to keep in my back pocket for the future.
Superb... Nice to see real business BTS Explanation videos on the actual job. Thanks for putting in the work on top of the work. Appreciated the details of workflow and working with client on site
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and glad you liked the video.
aye thank you sooooo much I always learn so much with these videos
very informative
Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
I've never filmed a interview, but I just love all the info that you've taken years to acquire and understand, and how you've shared it in such an easy to understand way. I hope all the good things happen for you.
Solid facts. That's usually my approach to shooting outside, but I never really thought about doubling the focal length like that!
Nice! I use that as a starting place and then adjust from there usually. Thanks for watching bro!
Griffin - you're a LEGEND! So many little nuggets of film making wisdom - thanks for making these bro!
Brilliant walkthrough. Lots of learning points.
u rock Griffin, so many amazing tips here. Much appreciated
Griffin, your channel rocks ✨🙏🏽
this was quality. dang so much info, so well explained. great video Griffin thanks!
An amazing great work !
Beyond sound and picture quality, we can see the confidence on the client and talents faces. They all seem relaxed, while focused, and never tensed... a proof of the good job you produced. The crew also appeared invested but on a steady pace, no one rushing for some random reason.
All this positive atmosphere, you have built along the set-up, showed into the final results... bravo !
Thank you so much for the kind words! Really appreciate it. Yes I agree the crew was great and the client was confident in us. Thanks for watching!
Had to sub!!! I see all the coordination and skill set in play. Very nice to watch and learn how a team functions on set.
No bs rundown of what works for you, great content man, keep up the fantastic work!
Great video per always. This comes to show that even a "natural" looking shot takes eq, crew and time to set up.
Great setup. Thank you for this tutorial.
This kind of content is the way to go man, unreal
Wonderful video griff love it. Even though I was there I always learn even more watching it again lol
Hahaha thanks for being there Rob!
Great work as always, Griff!
Thank you, Griffin! Outside broad daylight is the worst! And this so clearly explained all of my questions. I really appreciate you sharing your hard earned knowledge.
I very much enjoyed this video - great explanation as you were going through the process. More like this when possible!
Great video Griffin!!
Your vids are invaluable. Great stuff 👍
Thanks so much Joel! That means a lot to me to hear that.
Great work and nice way of explaining things.
Thanks so much Phil! Really appreciate you watching.
Great video! I have to rewatch again because I got so distracted by the cop cars looking familiar and then I finally realized it’s Oside. Cool to come across a local creator. First time I’ve seen your channel. New sub here!
Nice one Griffin, thanks for sharing!
Super solid!!! Gets better and better!
Thanks so much!!
Great stuff as always!
Thank you Paul!
Very helpful as always
Thank you Mike!
This was fantastic thank you for sharing.
I'm just here to say I love your content. Getting a C70 Very soon. But for weddings.
Love your videos, thank you for the insights! For further redundancy with audio, I like to split up my tracks even further pushing a lav to one camera and a shotgun to another. This way if one camera/card fails at least you have a backup audio file.
Nice that's a good idea. I like to monitor both to A cam, and I run dual cards on the A cam so if I lose a card I will have a backup.
Iconic video!!!
Thank you!
Very good and informative video. Thank you so much.
Been following you for awhile and been dying to see more BTS interview videos like this brother! I can watch them on repeat all day haha. 🔥
Well done and thank you. Standout demeanor!
Thank you so much Brian!
Great videos! I am obsessed with how you rig the smaller monitor! Couldn’t find the detailed items for that rig in the description. Do you mind sharing what exactly you use to build it?
Would love to see more videos like this.
excellent content as always
Thank you!
Excelente video 👏👍
Super helpful content bro. Wish I can subscribe 1000 times.
Another excellent video. Thanks.
Thanks so much for watching Bryan! Always appreciate you bro!
Thank you for this video Griffin
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Man.. your videos are so informative.. I am learning film making literally here.. Love from India..
Professional photographer here, learned a lot from you - thanks for all of your insight!
Respect 🔥
Love your visual style! Big inspiration Griffin! Unfortunately for the news and documentary work I do, we seldom have the time to set up an interview. Ten minutes prep time is mostly pushing it.
What kind of clamps/stands are in use for the 6x6? Also I'd love to see a full breakdown of your client monitor set-up. From camera to video village.
Someone's been watching their wanderingdp! Haha. Great stuff man, frames look awesome.
Love it
Great Breakdown! Simple and Professional! What kind of blanket did you use for that negative fill?
Great video as usual!! Did you use any filters?
Cool tips.
Very informative! Thanks for the great video, Griffin. Do you recommend the Aperture lighting for most videography? It can be hard to choose which system to invest in with so many light companies nowadays
Super helpful!
Thanks for watching Ryan!
Great video! How much power was the Aputure 600D set at? I see in your Gear page that you use the 1200D as well, but on this very bright day you were able to bounce a 600D. Looks like plenty of power here.
Framework 👍
🙌🙌
Great stuff Griffin! I believe Rycote has both overcovers and undercovers for talent. I think undercovers are used to prevent rustling of clothing on hidden mics, and overcovers are for reducing wind noise for exposed lavs. Thanks for sharing your process, always cool to see how others do their stuff!
Hey Sean! Ya I have both over covers and under covers. I know the normal use case for the over covers is outside the clothing but I have found they behave basically the same as under covers when placed under the clothing.
@@GriffinConway Good to know! Thanks for always being so kind to respond. Appreciate you always being so willing to share your knowledge with the community
Almost missed the vid because i did no see you in the thumbnail and thought it was some commercial 🙈
But great vid! I shoot a lot of interview style content and often outside. Usually i‘m by myself, so can‘t do all of this but definitely took away tips to improve my images. Especially with creating depth to the shot by shaping the light. Thanks heaps!
Thank you.
Love that depth with the diagonal lines from the overpasses! Curious, though, was the subject matter about transportation (or about city infrastructure in general)?
Love it! Can you link to your director's monitor setup in the description? It's a great little setup.
Great video Griffin.
Next video idea:- Utilising the “sun’s power” as source with mirrors. 🤙🏻
awesome bts! loved how the shoots looked. do you always like to shoot up at the talent? how'd the audio come out shooting outdoors? 99 out of 100 times, i avoid shooting outdoors for fear of not getting good audio.
Great tutorial, what tripods are you using?
I was using these ones in the video. They are a solid option for an affordable price point: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1247856-REG/manfrotto_mvk502055xpro3_502hd_pro_video_head.html/BI/21841/KBID/28209/DFF/d10-v21-t1-x728693/SID/DFF
Fantastic BTS -- I'm curious what's the budget and type of client you're doing on a shoot like this? Decent sized crew, lots of gears (and options available) for 2 interviews. I like to always be able to balance client expectations and budget by showing examples: this is what you can get at this price point versus this is what you get a this one.
Thanks!
I should do a pricing video at some point. This shoot was part of a 3 day shoot so it’s hard to break out pricing for just this interview. I charge a flare DP day rate which includes me and my gear. The other guys on set have a flat day rate as well.
@@GriffinConway Thanks Yes I'd love for you to dig in and break that out. I think one of the hardest things for me is understanding how to breakout from being a one-man-band on everything and understanding how to price a whole crew.
first set up I'd try and bounce the 600 from the other side, camera right, can fill the frame better, spot it in if you need more punch, could need a cutter/some tape to cut spill from the fresnel hitting the subject though
Great video! Why no lens hoods?
Great video. Would love to see this done when you are by yourself and done have scrims to setup
Great info. In my experience by the time you're at 0:08, the client is saying "we don't have time for this. We need to get moving onto the next bit" ALSO - Amazing attitude on set, definitely putting the talent at ease
Hi Griffin! How do you deal with the little latency between the AVX and the hardwired shotgun mic?
Very helpful, thanks! Would love to see the same thing set up inside!
Feel free to check this video out! th-cam.com/video/0CUFrk96dFs/w-d-xo.html
@@GriffinConway haha, didn't see that one!! Thanks!
Great Video Griffin. Do you still skip focal length when shooting with different sensor? or do you have focal reducer on C70 so it's Full frame to Frullframe?
Hey Kamal! Nice to see you here again bro! With the C70 I usually use the speedbooster so it's like "fake full frame" haha. But if I was using the standard adapter I would go 35mm A cam / 50mm B cam as a starting place and then adjust from there as the shot requires.
How do not get scratching sound coming off the mini dead cat if the subject moves at all? Enjoy your content, thanks for sharing!
I wish I had internal ND LOL. great vid!
It's such a good feature. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing your bts. I haven’t used a slate for ages for these multicam shots since I acquired the Tentacle TrackE Timecode devices. Highly recommend (no affiliate!)
Nice! I like the slate just as a redundancy, and also it looks legit for the client too haha
@@GriffinConway true. Also clients love to clap the slate. I makes them feel like Steven Spielberg :) I recently had a single op setup with three cams, that's where the TC is more than handy.
Great video Griffin. I have a similar Manfrotto tripod, the 755XB. For some reason, the angle selectors keep breaking on the inside of the tripod leg. I'm using the GH5 with a cage and a Canon 70-200mm. Have you had similar experiences with the tripod system you're using?
I have a few of the same tripods. They aren't great and I have had a few issues with them but they are still working for me. I would reach out and see if you can get a replacement if it is still under warranty.
are there not batteries that can plug directly into a generator or outlet? that way you have infinite battery and dont have to worry about swapping out midshoot?
great content. superb. a little too much headroom on the interview shot imho
How do you find BTS shooters and get clearance from the client to film on set? Good stuff as always 🤘🏻
Hey Ryan, I get a lot of DM's from people asking to come out to set for a day or two and observe/learn. Regarding the client, if I am booking the shoot myself I let them know ahead of time that it will be happening and if I am booked on by a director as the DP I just check with them and make sure it is ok and offer to share all the BTS with them and credit them in the video like I did on this one with @justinphumedia
so highlights were clipping in fasle colour mode but then in scope mode it wasn't? I am struggling with log/lut exposure balance with my ninja V
Holy shit that was useful. Thank you thank you.
Awesome! Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Love this bro 💕 really curious about how the audio turned out
It was clean! I didn’t want to share too much of the interview though.
@@GriffinConway hope we get a much in-depth audio tutorial esque video soon 🙌
Great stuff as always. I'm always a bit scared of lav audio. I get so much clothing scratchy sound with it when it's hidden. I'm using a Sennheiser ME 2 which has a bit of a strange capsule on it. Wondering if I should grab an MKE 2 to help avoid this issue?
A tip I've picked up is to attach the mic to something that makes the most noise when rubbing up against it. For instance, if you have a choice between skin and a rough or generally noisy garment, attach the microphone to the garment, so that skin rubbing will have the least amount of impact. If the subject is moving fairly quickly, use a mini dead cat to reduce wind noise through the garment.
I hope these help - remember the gear doesn't make everything, it's mostly the technique!
@@En1gm4tic Thanks for the tip. I find that a person's chest hair ends up being just as noisy as the clothing. It's mostly what I'm picking up in the audio. I've tried the moleskin and tape sandwich methods, but both have been pretty unsuccessful.
I screwed myself with this same setup, usually works perfectly and it did for most of the interviews by one guy had a recently shaved chest and the lab audio sounds like someone took a wire brush to it every time he moved
@@ScottBell in this instance, where the skin/hair and shirt have the same problem, you might have to use under the collar and instruct them not to move as much. When going to the collar, try to avoid the center and go to the "bottom left" or "bottom right". In extreme cases, you may need to tape to both the skin and the shirt to ensure the least amount of movement possible, but you risk showing it to the camera due to how weird it will be while moving.
Thanks for watching Scott! I have the ME2 and the MKE2 is way, way better IMO. I never like the audio out of the ME2 and the larger capsul makes it harder to hide.
Great video👍
Are you connecting both cameras to the Sumo? Via SDI? HDMI?
I ran one cam to the sumo and the other to the smaller 7” monitor I showed. I used teradeks for the a cam and an SDI with an SDI converter box for b cam
Any tips on lav set up for the C70’s mini XLR input?
For sure! Check out this video I show a full walk through of the C70 audio setup: th-cam.com/video/hbTE-v_6j2g/w-d-xo.html
I also use this mini xlr to full xlr cable: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1665739-REG/cable_techniques_ct_ax3fc70_01_1_low_profile_xlr_3f_to.html/BI/21841/KBID/28209/DFF/d10-v21-t1-x1139127/SID/DFF
Great video: I’ve got a question that I hope isn’t too personal. You appeared to have a crew of 5? How long was the filmed interview? I’m sure the second camera was cut in and out in the final production. May I ask what you charged for that length video?
Hi Bill, I was the DP on this one. Crew was Director/Producer, DP (Me), 2nd Cam Op, 1st AC/Swing, and PA. Im not sure on total budget for the shoot but I just charge my standard DP rate to the production company that hired me.
Hey mate, what do you keep your native ISO at on the c500mk2? I've been using ISO800 and also ISO400 just to keep the blacks in the right spot. Love to hear your thoughts?
Check this video out. I cover that exact thing: th-cam.com/video/dxp_4Z8Ev-4/w-d-xo.html
@@GriffinConway AWESOME!!!! You just answered all my questions. That is a great video!!! thank you.
@@MattNormanFilms awesome glad it helped!
Do a masterclass bro
Awesome tips!
One thing I did pick up was that you shot both wide and close up at f2. I doubt anyone but a person who does these will notice, but the background bokah is different in that case between the two shots. Have you ever considered shooting closeups at e.g. f4 and wides at f2 to match the bokah?
Again, nitpicking but just something I noticed.
good...no...EXCELLENT job otherwise!
Thank you! It's a creative choice and sometimes I will go 2 stops more closed down on the aputure on the close up cam, but sometimes I just go full blurry mode on the background lol. Thanks for watching!
WHAT LUT WAS THAT?
It’s my luts I sell. GC midnight linked in description
someones been watching the Wandering DP ;)
13:55 minutes, is that sound blanket in the background?
Yep 👍
I would just change the time of interview to have a better natural light! I guest the client was controlling the the radiographer.
