You can watch Episode 2 here!: th-cam.com/video/_JKbLa4GG5g/w-d-xo.html and the final film here: th-cam.com/video/u6WpwmPe9Ks/w-d-xo.html Hope you enjoy!
I appreciate the solo filmmaker approach, the ownership over a project, the sense of accomplishment... but man there's just something about being a part of something collectively like this. Having a whole bunch of people come together to make a thing. It's just really great to see. Thanks for these BTS series like this. It's great to see.
These BTS videos are my absolute favorite thing to turn to when I feel myself doubting or fighting for motivation. Specifically yours have inspired me to document my own journey (for myself at the moment). The way that you have approached building your platform and career is so inspiring and is one of the only places I’ve been able to see something I want to aspire to, specifically the way you run your sets and treat people! Congrats on your newest film! Can’t wait to watch it and the rest of the BTS!
You're like the next Wes Anderson. You bring back familiar faces to each project and have your own quirky humor. All your work is excellent and I can't wait to see what else you're going to do!
@@DannyGevirtz So glad to see you back after how tough it's been recovering from "I think I'm sick". I just started working as DoP on small low budget short films, which I end up also editing so I can build experience in the full filmmaking process. The true mental challenge comes in right after your last shoot day. It's tough but I aspire to reach the point to make and document my first feature as you have done. One step at a time!
3 years ago i got my first sony camera and was researching how to make a moody scene and i came across your channel . I decided to emulate almost everything you do to my best ability and this week I'll be finishing my first narrative short film and i plan to follow your steps and advice when it comes to releasing it. Thank you for your hard work Danny!
I don’t blame you for taking a break especially with how long a feature run can be. Your ideas always have a unique and heartfelt feelin to em, can’t wait!!
@@DannyGevirtz Lol, I definitely know how that is. Hopefully your channel continues to blow up like crazy and you can just hire someone (that knows how to tell the story like you do here)! Keep up the great work my friend, you're killing it!
I appreciate this kind of behind the scenes epsidoic so much. You really get to see moments unfold. It's a huge learning opportunity. You feel like you're there. Your hard work doesn't go unnoticed Danny! as well as the team!
I get the hard work behind big hollywood sets. Yeah, what they are doing is great but these guys with such limited resources making something like this.. the amount of talent they hold. Damn! So inspiring. Also seeing Danny and Carlo working together always make me very happy for some reason.
Your BTS videos make me dizzy showing the amount of pieces that a film has behind. Even if I knew it already, these videos put them under the spotlight. And they always bring me, and renew, the appreciation for the people that make those pieces fit together.
Back again with a new script, Cant wait to see this one man. For someone who is writing a script the process that you are showing here is so valuable. Thanks bro!
This is exciting. These have become their own series with their own cast of characters and I have the same feelings about seeing some of them return for this project that I do other series/shows/films I watch. Pretty cool thing you've built here, Danny.
I like how you write to the song in mind. I do the same thing and I've found it elevates the script drastically. Pulling from the mood and overall vibe of the song will also motivate a writer to.... well, write.
I literally only just finally watched I think I'm Sick today after buying it when it first launched. Your story telling ability is so good man. I'm pumped for this one - if it's half as good as I think I'm Sick it'll be a banger!
as someone who is currently chasing this dream, and I'm pre production for my first short film, I cannot begin to describe how amazing this is to watch.
I love your Solo Documentary Film Making, that's what drew me into your channel. I would love to see you marry your Documentary Cinematography/Film Making with your Narrative Work. You have been inspiring to me in your film making career and one thing you had said after making ISIS is that you were influenced by too many people who told you what you needed to do to make a feature length film and that a feature length film is just like 5 short films combined. I think for me in my next film making adventures I'm trying to figure out for myself "My Way" of film making instead of "The Way" I've been learning in film school and online. Keep it up, and thanks for the inspiration!!!
This was awesome! I loved your BTS for ITIS and so I was super pumped to see this. The film looks amazing! I can’t wait to watch it and the second BTS episode! Keep crushing it 😎
Danny digging in a box of old scripts... me admiring the tool decor on the wall seeing all the tools you would ever need: level, gaft or duct tape, hammer and screw drivers. You sir never disappoint. Thank you for being awesome.
Listen Danny, it’s just so inspiring. I have the profile of a solo filmmaker like you for certain projects, but I also work on small productions with tiny teams as a director… And what you’re doing here is just so interesting and motivating. But I have to admit, it also discourages me. It makes me want to do something similar with my own project, but it seems so unimaginable, so hard to reach. I’m afraid I’ll never know how to create that kind of opportunity. Thank you so much, though, for sharing so much with us, and for this incredibly valuable behind-the-scenes insight.
Thanks for this woindow into your world, Danny! I just produced, edited and released my firstshort film for the first time and it was an awesome experience. I really want to do more! It's doing the circuits right now, but will be out soon after!
I used to think that mean girls was my favorite movie. And I would openly admit it to everyone. But I can comfortably say now itis takes that award without A doubt
there are actually quite a few funny stories about people finding out that they came to know the people in the backgrounds of old photos. several couples have realized they were places at the same time and took photos where they were in the background of each others photos. which is so cool to think about
I've always wondered how these young filmmakers get their funding to obtain such gear/crew? Here I am excited to make a short with a blackmagic p4k, skeleton crew and a $5k budget
The sponsorships like musicbed in this video support my TH-cam channel and I use that money to invest back into projects like these. I’ve made plenty of films over the years with less than $100 and a DSLR
Awesome stuff! Your BTS guy did a great job, too. Do you and Carlo develop LUTs before hand to help you monitor/expose on set? Or is it all like he said: expose well and shape the light enough and leave the rest to the colorist?
Excellent vid as always! Danny, quick question. If you wrote a sequel to an IP, how would you show it around? Agents / managers / CEOs have not been very responsive. Go figure! lol Thanks
This is going to be a beginner question, but when making a film like this is it better to shoot in log or shooting like them with not a log picture profile?😅

Ah man appreciate the compliment!
Danny! I've missed these videos. So cool to watch the process, especially so in depth like this. You’re a legend.
Thanks dude!
Yes! Welcome back, brother! So glad to see you're ready for another 'narrative film climb' - I am here for it!
Hahah this one rejuvenated my life for it
dude this looks soooo good. can i please get a sneak peak cause i cant wait to see it.
Haha of course. Once I get sound back and conform it I’ll send it over
Lets gooooo folks, Danny is making a new movie!!
So good to see the whole team together again.
Yes sir!! Thank you!
When we need him most..he appears! Thanks for this Danny!
Hahah amazing. Thanks dude

Thanks so much man!
Here we go!!! So much insight. Thanks for these BTS - always love to a the magic happening behind the curtain.

Thank you dude!!
@ no problem and the wait is now over !
Aww yeah, he’s back baby! Seeing you in the narrative space makes me happy.
Also, great work to the bts crew and editor(s) on this one 👏🏻
Thanks dude! Vin and chase crushed the shooting. Lol I wish I could pay editors for these but I’m still doing all the editing on this channel myself
@@DannyGevirtz Lol, I definitely know how that is. Hopefully your channel continues to blow up like crazy and you can just hire someone (that knows how to tell the story like you do here)! Keep up the great work my friend, you're killing it!
So stoked to watch the final product Danny. Love the energy you are creating here.

@@DannyGevirtz No problem🙂
Man, I love how raw this is it's just so awesome. Also really cool to see you ask for these locations on IG then make it happen!!
Haha very rarely does the IG ask help
I get the hard work behind big hollywood sets. Yeah, what they are doing is great but these guys with such limited resources making something like this.. the amount of talent they hold. Damn!
So inspiring.
Also seeing Danny and Carlo working together always make me very happy for some reason.

My God, Danny. Well done sir. The grade gives me late 90s cinema mixed with 2010s color. Love it.
Thank you dude!!

Haha it’s definitely a lot but it’s what makes it worth it in the end!
I’m gonna binge this series a million times. And then double that.
Hahaha yessss
Danny looking like he's having a lot of fun making this one
Danny you are just so into your works. It such a motivation for me as a filmmaker way over the sea from China. love!!!
Thank you man!
Back again with a new script, Cant wait to see this one man. For someone who is writing a script the process that you are showing here is so valuable. Thanks bro!

Thank you for using my songs in this! Absolutely loved watching this!!
Haha dude! Your music is a staple in the final film! Excited for you to see it. You’re so talented

Thanks Eric!
This looks incredible. I'm excited for it. Must be a dream to have a team like this to work with and create. Can't wait for part 2.
It really is!
Pissed I moved to Florida tbh. Love to see the crew back together!!!
Haha me too man!

Excellent vid as always!
Danny, quick question. If you wrote a sequel to an IP, how would you show it around? Agents / managers / CEOs have not been very responsive. Go figure! lol
Thanks
I’m not sure! I kinda just go into writing something knowing I’m making it myself
This is going to be a beginner question, but when making a film like this is it better to shoot in log or shooting like them with not a log picture profile?😅
We also shoot in log to give us the most flexibility in post!
@ oh okay, and which is the better way to shoot?
it must have been an extraordinary adventure. love
Thank you!! It was great
camera guy definitely panned towards the mirror to show how big he is
Haha he should! He’s a tank!
Film makers are so Amazing. I love doing it but couldn't find serious actors on the block, so I gave up. I would love my Documentary done. ❤
It’s a hard process!
damn, i'm actually so keen for this now hahaha
Hahah got part 2 coming Wednesday
INSANE
Thanks man!
I'm two minutes in, and all i can think about is that i want red dog merchandise 😮
