  • Make your VIDEOS look like MOVIES - 5 tips for CINEMATIC VIDEO
    There are many videos on TH-cam telling you what you must buy to make your videos more cinematic... This is not one of them. Instead I’m going to share tips that anyone can apply whether you’re loaded with gear or shooting on the lowest of budgets.

    I don't think I've ever clicked on a video notification so quickly ha. These videos are next level - you are in a league of your own here on TH-cam. Thanks for all you do!

  • @PNWMOTION
    @PNWMOTION 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +89

    Dude I love this guy, not once have I ever been compelled to spend money but watching this channel to achieve this level of work. He uses consumer level gear and makes movie quality results while half the other guys are dropping 20k and their content is no where near this amazing!

    • @jacques_crafford
      @jacques_crafford  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

      Wow thanks dude, that really means a lot to me! Super grateful to have your support!

    • @catinmyhat
      @catinmyhat 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      While the excellent techniques mentioned here don't require expensive or extra gear from what you already have, I do argue your "consumer level" and $20k comment. The FX3 itself is a baby cinema camera and marketed at professionals so is decidedly not a consumer level camera. Add up the prices of the gear listed in the description, along with the MusicBed subscription then the total is over $24k. If you also add in the lighting and other gear and software used for this video then it's easily double that. The point should be made that expensive gear doesn't make you a better cinematographer, but it does make doing quality cinematography easier. If this video was done with a sub $2k setup, or with a sub $1k phone then your comments would hold true--but as he notes this is mostly existing client footage and effort wasn't made to shoot dedicated footage for this tutorial.

    • @PNWMOTION
      @PNWMOTION 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      @@catinmyhat I can agree to that for sure I just like that the videos he make aren’t centered around the gear and more of the creative aspects of it which in my opinion is breath of fresh air and for people just starting out they can watch it and not feel bad because they are using cheaper equipment. I’m not saying the fx3 is cheap it’s just a lot more obtainable then say a red or something else

      I wanted to thank you for this comment as well. I just literally told someone 2 mins ago that I want a new lens, I need a new SSD, I need.... I need... I need... and I finally just told him. You know what, I am going to just focus on content and quality with what I have, and do the best I can. I don't have 6-8k to drop on things. So seeing this comment was very synchronistic for me. I will stick with in camera cards and won't worry about bringing my ninja V plus with SSD.

    THIS IS EVERYTHING! The way you simplified the "cinematic" term into contrast is perfect-- and it's applicable across all parts of the film making process. Great video 💥👏🏾

    Those segments of your reel and films look and sound incredible!!

    Great tips!!!! I love that you added sound as a way of making images more cinematic but your shots are almost always moving which also makes them amazing, and that often requires a stabilizer.

    Man, I love your work, and your tutorials are heaven sent. Because you're not just a youtube content creator, your work speaks for itself. I'm currently deciding between an A7rV or an a7iv. I want a hybrid video/photography camera. But my main focus will be video. I just also want to take amazing photos while being able to get a cinematic look. I've been itching to figure out what camera to get and upgrade my a6400 system.

    I am filming as a traveller. We don't to set up any props especially when constantly reminded with the cost of extra luggage weight. It feels like I'm being pushed to level 100 even as a beginner. I certainly don't have the luxury of having fancy cameras too. Appreciate all the small potent tips I can get to grow faster and capture meaningful but fleeting moments for the World. 🙏🏻🌿
