Long one, but a good one! Which setup was your favorite from the shoot? COMMENT BELOW
Very cool, love the depth, learnt a lot. Big up.
How does the autofocus of the Sony a7III work with the Canon 50mm f / 1.4 (Lens)?
You forgot to link the tube lights!
U the #truth bro 💯 be looking for me next year ☝🏾😁
Bro you are a huge inspiration to me and my growth as a content creator. Bro thank you for all the work you have put in and spreading your wisdom.
If no one else says, man I REALLY appreciate this in-depth behind the scenes because it really teaches small productions another way of approaching accomplishing a vision. We all pretty much shoot solo, but with a team, its easier and feels much more professional. The artist is at ease, the director is at ease, and the crew is at ease. Everyone does their job and goes home happy to know that you all accomplished what you set out to do. Big salute to you and everything you give to us.
Real Shit!!
100%
We all love it.
Im actually amazed that you were able to do something of this magnitude only giving the producer $5000 to work with in LA. You paid his fee, makeup, art, models, car rental and studio rental... Your dude is a wizard and must be crazy connected. Keep him on your speed dial. Y'all did an amazing job for this project and i think you made some very smart decisions regarding what to do with that budget. Thank you for this video. It was. A very valuable lesson in the difference a good producer can make on set.
Thanks bro
Real Shit!!
Exactly what I was thinkin... Thanks for sharing YC...
So true!
ALZMNR you echoed my sentiments exactly!
The cheapest masterclass ever.
LOL
Lol truth lol
Daniel Greig Wooorrd!
way better than cinematography database.
th-cam.com/video/DonGi0oQY-I/w-d-xo.html I shot this for 700... lemme know what you guys think.
This video was mind blowing brother. It's good to hear how you cut your own pay back just to make sure that your client got the best look possible. I know that sometimes your personal profit margin is based off of your own resources and you took what you knew and outsourced what you didn't know.
I really love your content man. Please make more videos showcasing the business side of the industry. A lot of us want to know how you prospect/qualify clients, how you follow up with them and how you get to where you can work on a $10k video shoot. That's one of my goals for next year and I'd love to catch your perspective.
Love the format, content, and BTS style video! I will watch these every time don't care how long!
I've never watched a 25min TH-cam video but I always tune in when you upload. Loved every minute. Appreciate everything you do to help out the film community. 🙏🏾
Thanks for sharing this experience. So much goes into a production that we didn’t know about. Wishing much success to you and to your clients.
Bro, I’ve been slowly going through your videos and you constantly drop gems in them. The b-rolls with the fast/slow shot are probably my favorite. Keep up the good work.
BRO!!! SO MANY ARTIST NEED TO SEE THIS!! 10 - 12 hours is the norm on sets. Glad you got the opportunity to get a taste of the set life. happy for you man; keep thriving
Thank you for sharing! I double majored in Theatre and Business in college and one of my favorite things was building sets, lighting, sound and all the behind the stage stuff and stage management/Directing. I always love when someone can share the tips for different ideas and show different ways to utilize space and props. A lot of very awesome things going on here. Again thank you for sharing even down to the cost etc. Having a reliable producer always helps too. I’ve been following Chris Cash for a little over two years now and I’m always interested to see what projects he’s working on. Great work to the both of you!
Dope video YC! Love the BTS shots and how in depth you went into everything from budget to locations and producers - really great knowledge as always. As I’m looking to work my way up to collaborating with bigger crews and budgets it’s great to see what you’re doing on your projects. Interesting to hear your budgeting priorities and I totally agree - set design and lighting will always be more important than a camera package, to a certain degree of course. You’ve got serious skills and passion and I’m looking forward to watching you continue to move up in the industry in your area!
that money palet is genius
same shit i thought when i saw it
😕 U do kno u can order the money pallet off line right
@@Lil67Chris yeah, but for how much per day? ;) serious question. VS. making it - really maybe they saved money
I shot this music video for $700 th-cam.com/video/DonGi0oQY-I/w-d-xo.html. Come check it out lemme know what you guys think
This is one of the best videos I've seen come from you in regards to color. I love what you did with it!
So nice to see the joy in your eyes as you tell us about your project. Your passion and talent show…
I’m inspired. ❤️ from Phoenix. Az
Thanks for being so open, it refreshing to see someone really share the reality of making videos.
Good work YC. It really shows the power of networking.
Salute to all my people out here living life doing what they love to do .... Its been a long time coming but success is on the horizon ....
Man thank you so much for sharing your experience. I’m having first video shoot this Saturday. Nervous rocking can’t even describe my emotions. Another thing, I was so surprised to learned how much you walked away with. I truly appreciate you sharing this with us. I will share this with my artist as well so they are aware. Thank you. Much love!!!
This is your best upload this year. Super proud and honored to watch you grow! The grade you put on this is a HIT! Love the warm tones.
I like getting a nice check, but I hate being a one man band. I’m really big on things being organized, so I’d rather take less money for a less stressful and better project outcome. You did really well with the budget. I took some notes. Paying and feeding a crew is expensive but it has to be done.
so cool, can't wait to see the final.
I find that the biggest challenge in video production. Conveying to clients the amount of work and cost it takes to produce a quality video.
They only see what happens during the shoot. They don't often see what goes on before and after.
Subbed and liked! I’ve done a few rap videos myself and it isn’t the primary choice because of all the planning and editing that goes into it. Having a producer to relieve the stress is something I never even thought of but need. The budget makes sense when you think about it and this whole video is inspiring. Love finding new dope black creatives on TH-cam. Can’t wait to view more of your content.
yoooooooo man, i was glued to this. First of all THANK YOU. Couple days ago i tried to explain all this to some guys who asked about getting a music video done, now i got something physical to refer people to. Funny thing to is that on my last shoot, i recommended renting those Astera lights to increase the production value but the budget just wasnt there. Video looks dope, cant wait to see it. Keep up the great work
Actually kinda surprised you 'only' took $1,000, but I take the point about passion projects / improving your portfolio :) Appreciate the video man thanks
Yeah it varies
😂i make 50$ per video damn😂
th-cam.com/video/ph0uhG8Xkpk/w-d-xo.html
And here is that 50$ video😂
Damn this type of result for this budget is insane. 👌🏻
Thank you bro I don’t think you understand how helpful you are. Not only that I personally appreciate you for staying grounded and still talking to us filmmakers who are not necessarily at your level.
Wow! This is such a great channel. I learn SO MUCH every time I check out one of your videos. Thank you for your great work.
bro you are a talented dude. I've been watching your videos for a while now. But this is the best video I've ever seen from a TH-camr.
IAMREMYJ yeah... the best by far!!💯
You're like the Robert Rodriquez of the music video industry! Really fantastic informational vid dude!
Bruh this is the most valuable TH-cam video I’ve watched this year. Reviews and all that are cool, but a 100% real story about your experience is something that’s irreplaceable in the TH-cam scene. And your down to earth delivery and dope visual storytelling made it a pleasure to watch. Thank you for putting it out for everyone to learn from.
Thank you! This was hands down an awesome informative BTS video. I definitely appreciate that you are so transparent about the budget and what you got paid for this video... I have been following you on IG for a min now and I absolutely love not only your work, but also your passion. I always come to your page when I am trying to spice up my videos on my channel... keep grindin bruh! You are doing awesome!
I shot many music videos this year off my own budget and I can tell you, for the artist, the $ investment can be insane. Venue is usually the greatest cost along with travel and lodging. Finding the talent in new cities can be a challenge. But the worst part is everyone trying to milk the budget and ask for crazy amounts just because someone seems to have money. My advice for filmmakers trying to secure more business and deals is to set a flat rate (regardless of someone’s status in life) or a system which increases rate by a scale based on the amount of exposure. Because there is nothing worse than changing your fee just because someone seems affluent but you deliver the same product. That’s like a girl making you work extra hard to get a date with her but then goes to another guy and throws herself at him on site. Not ragging on you, you actually did it fairly. These were my lessons in coordinating video as a producer and artist. Im glad you secured that deal. For everyone else reading however, anything over $5k is serious money. So treat it accordingly. It’s so easy to burn a bridge without knowing and wondering why you never got hired back. And most the time the money is coming out of the artists pocket, not a banks pocket, so it intensifies the investment. If you really want to stand out, creative video fx are the new wave. Where are you from?
I like your beats bro. Look me up to see my style. I Go by SXTWLVE on streaming
all facts! specially the passion project thing nice video bro!
Thank you YC ! Leaving this video and learned a few new things ! More BTS Bangers!! Please !
Wasn't a subscriber till now. I appreciate you for sharing your experience and triple for being so transparent with everything including the numbers.
This was a wonderful insight!! Really enjoyed it, and I learnt a lot too. :-)

Yo I'm 42 and just now getting into shooting music vids. I've been mainly a short documentary maker. I've been studying you and Olufemi for the past year for insight to shooting music vids. You are a dope young brother. Mad respect. Big Big love to you family
Videos like this make my days start off so good. Thanks for the video YC.
wow.. haven't seen your channel in a minute you've grown a ton congrats!
I feel he should have more than a million subs for the content he posts
Thank you for bringing such an inspiration 🙏🏽♥️
Yooo what is the best video camera on a budget 🤙🏽
Unknown you should do some research. Look on the web. Why do u need a budget camera? Is it for shooting pictures like portraits or for video recording. You can get an entry level dslr under $500-$1200. Get the best you can afford, is what I would suggest if your on a budget. Also know the reasons to why you want a budget camera, and look for cameras that can give you the features you need. They have DX crop sensors and FX full frame sensors. Some have the ability to take pictures and record video in low light situations. You have to do some research and find the best one that suits your needs.
I used my Lumix G7 for music videos. You can find it online between 400-600 bucks. Also, Lumix G85, Sony a6300 have gone down in price too. These cameras all shoot 4k.
I appreciate this type of content. IMO you’re hitting the soft spot that not everyone is diving into. Killing it YC! 🔥🔥
Great video bro. Thanks for explaining what goes into a music video budget. Nice to see the BTS and how things were put together.
Fire. Absolute fire.... I’m a musician and director.. people don’t understand how expensive things are... people want this for 300 bucks... it’s impossible... sidenote: Tcrook$ is dope ... he should do a feature with Dave east or nipsey ... he’s got that real authentic sound
mike gam people kill me asking for videos for next to nothing. They don't think about how much we have spent on our equipment alone. 🤷🏽♂️
@@ChemVision I know right!
So true, I get artist in my DM's asking for $150 music videos.... My camera set up alone is 5k or more not including lights, fog machine, adobe subscription, and time spent learning the skill that make them want to shoot with you
In my country i have artist whant a music video for 20$ like wtf.....
P Allan Films that’s crazy bro! I can only imagine and to me that’s an insult especially if you’ve which I’m sure have mastered your equipment and software etc. Get your money and they have no choice but to respect your price point. Keep going my G. Respect! ✊🏽
This video literally changed my life!
Lol
man you give me hope when i think about calling it a day this video helped me so much .......MUCH LOVE KING
I’m happy to see you get the type of experience on this type of production that you need going into the next level of your filming career. This was very good experience and exposure for you. Congrats. Phelix
Great video man, LA is losing when it comes to the film industry. Guy shooting narratives on GH4 & GH5'S with low to no budget are being asked for permits. This is crazy and also the reason the industry has moved to Atlanta.
BTW, you did not include post production editing which should be a crucial part of the budget.
Im already into this video and it just started
Man this is soo dope! Please do these in-depth BTS videos often, it was soo informative. I have always wanted to know your exact set up for different shots and your mind set so this is awesome!!!
One of my favorite videos from you bro. I try to explain this to clients all the time. Glad you covered this so in-depth
I’m low key about to send this to all of my clients lol
It would be interesting to try out continuing those walls in After Effects with some tracked 3d solids 🤔
Can you do it? Email me if so
YCImaging i sent you an email to the address that’s on your website
Keep us updated on this!
And easy way to extend the fake walls is to mirror the sides in premier, Gives a nice trippy effect too. I had a similar setup and problem and this is how i overcame it. beats cropping and a lot less work then tracking! let me know how it goes...
Update: emailed him yesterday. No response yet 😂
Dope video. I appreciate the conversational tone and BTS feel. Looking forward to the next one.
I think i have watched this vide three times now lol. I love how transparent you are and how helpful your information is. Does not hurt that your videos are just dope to begin with. Hope i can get to make music videos of your quality one day. Its one of my goals right now.
How does the autofocus of the Sony a7III work with the Canon 50mm f / 1.4 (Lens)?
Jose Antonio Guzman Luciano Doesn’t work I believe
@@YCImaging you know an adapter that works well with?
with which camera uses the Canon 50mm f/1.4 (Lens)?
I have an a6500 with a Metabones mark V and a Canon 50mm 1.4. For vídeos autofocus is non existent. Photos your fine. Don’t use it for video.
@@DavidMota thanks men
Dope content YC💪🏽 I'm headed to LA this March to shoot...I didn't even think about permits...😞 watch me run into a similar issue smh 🤷🏽♂️
better start sourcing them permits now!
them permits are a bitch, bro you better start now
Thanks for sharing your experience, ideas and knowledge. I think you did really well with a 10k budget, I really enjoyed seeing the Aputure studio and the various setups you had, especially the warehouse with the car was awesome! I was very impressed with the colors and lighting, great work! 👍
Always learn a whole lot from your videos. Really appreciate them.
HLG on this music video too? I think we will all like to know how you go about color grading this profile picture.
bro, never heard of needing a permit for filming inside of a private area and I primarily shoot music videos in LA.... sounds like bs to me
Drew Kocak Same here. Been filming web series and films in LA for years. That def sounded like BS. Glad they worked it out
the ARTHOUSE x lamont pierré interesting, what’s your IG bro?
www.filmindependent.org/blog/need-know-shooting-la-permitting-primer/
Alberto Gutierrez So Many Rules in LA, wow great 👍🏾 info
Really? That’s wild. When I was in film school my professor stressed it cuz they’ll shut your shit down in a heart beat if they want. It’s pretty wack. It’s pretty much them imposing a tax but calling it a permit. Smh. Cash grabbing for sure.
I understand what you going through with the process making video or film project. I am going through the same boat. Thank you for making the behind the scene. You have done an amazing job for this project and you are right about building a relationship with your connection and don't burn bridges with the ones who help you out. And including budgeting and Video set planning which is very important. It is a team effort doing a film. Thank God that I've take the time to see your topic or thumbnail where I randomly check out your video. I would like to see in the future that if we can work together.
Love your channel because you can see the hard work and passion. I got the Sony A7iii because I watched your review twice. I've watched a lot of the big names on here, but I'm glad I found your content. It's on a real level. I'm very inspired :)
Bro, we did a 13-hour shoot once for a 60-second commercial that ultimately got cut down to 30 seconds before it went live.
That shit's the worst
Hey YC, how did you find the producer?
@cash1313cc
This is blessed I appreciate all these different viewpoints and details that are crutial! On that note of having a producer that sounds like such an easy shooting day. Not having to worry about all of that, just executing your job to the fullest with a clear mind.
Loved this BTS bro. Another dimension to your brand. Felt that pain, joy, etc. etc. Bless Up!
You know it’s real when the ronin m come back out
lmaooooooo
🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha too good
Story time with YC!
I live in Atlanta and bruh you’re the reason why I do videos now. I produce music and now I’m starting to get clientele for music vids. Thanks bro! Atlanta is starting to become film centric now and money is starting to rush in my city so again thanks because I would’ve never known about this if I never clicked ya videos!
Amazing value for money - and a fantastic result. The pop of the red coat - the shine, the separation / skin tones - so much to like.
Damn bro you came to LA and didn't hit me up :(
YC and TCrook$ is like Dre and Snoop!
Dude. Everything is this video was super informative. Thank you! Honestly seeing some of the shots I would have expected that budget to be way higher. Congrats to you and your team.
Thanks for sharing YC, this is some detailed stuff
when is this dropping I can't wait to see this movie
Soon!
I really wish I could have won that Apurture light. sigh...
Awesome in debt behind the scenes from beginning to end. A lot of information in detail. Is definitely cool that you shared the budget, what was even more incredible is that the artist definitely stepped up and give you feedback most artists don't do that. I also agree those tube lights were incredible, this is another example on how you can do a lot with crops once you light them up. That's one big reason why a lot of people don't get phenomenal shots or even interesting Concepts it's because they don't think out of the box. I build a chroma key video room setup in my basement, the problem I'm always having is that my ceiling is too low so therefore my overhead lighting is always a big issue. But after watching this I was approaching it all wrong I could have thought about less chroma key and more of a visual setup with props and furniture to utilize the space even more. This video is very motivational great job YC
Incredible!!!! LOVED the break down. Super informative.
Hell no I'm not surprised actually you underestimate your value. Because you in a different area. But I have no doubt did you will be one of the highest paid video production companies around because of your talent. Just dont box yourself in doing only music videos. Advertising is where the bag is. Budget is ridiculous. With minimal editing. Do this! Divide your pay by the hours you spent shooting & editing. Then tell us how much you made per hour?
I guesstimate he made as bout 75 bucks an hour
@@oohstocks after editing I think it's going to be much lower. Full day filming, and probably at least another full day editing. I would guess closer to 50$/hr. But then you have in factor in time lost due to travel, that could have been spent on other work. So it's technically lower, just not measurable.
@@bstuartTI Yea, I moved away from that, I went full post production 3d vfx work in an agency. I get paid way more and don't have to deal with budget limitations.

Advertising is often the most soul-sucking work you can do. Source: 18 years of working for advertising agencies. Going solo was the best thing I ever did for my career and I'm the happiest I've ever been with my work. I don't want to speak for YC but if he enjoys making music videos...that's his thing. It's not all about $$$$$$.
When you rap about Money on a budget...
I almost never comment on videos man, but I really needed to tell you that this kind of content is gold. No one out there is being so clear about money and for us that are hustling in this field really help us. Thanks man! I hope you really continue making this kind of clear, in-depth type of video!
Thank you for those details!very helpful!

This is so helpful on so many levels! Thanks YC, you're the man!
Can’t wait too see the video‼️ The colors on the car, money pallet scene looked real good 🔥🔥.
I definitely would have thought it would cost more than $10k. Did you edit the video too? I feel like you didn't pay yourself enough.
I see more money should be paid off to him....men the lights makes amazing
10k seems extremely cheap for this much in the video
Bro. I am sooo happy for your success! It's good to see a young brother doing positive work in a legal and classy vein. Big ups to you and thanks for educating and us with the wisdom and herbs of your experiences👊🔥🔥.
Bro this is soo dope! most useful video ive ever seen! Im going in that direction where I want to build a team as well and is really good to start to learn more about how budgets work on this scale. Keep up the dope work!
All the filmmaking going on in LA and this Fire Marshall decides to harass your project. Super lame.
So $5,000 went to the producer and he didn't even get a permit?
If you know anything about production, you would know that 5k is nothing to shoot a music video. Especially when you have a full crew. But god bless.
@@cash13cc A. Permit.
Great video. Appreciate your candor and attitude, and all the info. Cheers
Love how you went over how important stuff like this is you always kill it YC
Real talk, you're too good to be charging $1000 per shoot. $1000 + $500/hr sounds fair, plus a separate fee for editing... And they should also be paying for your travel, unless you are already factoring that into your fee. But seriously, you're trippin, bro. Time to scale up!
My friend...Your day rate is way too low! I'm really surprised that you pulled that off for 10k!
please i need help, im trying to do the same type of thing, but i dont understand how the hell to get my picture as clean as yours, whatever i do i get noise in my videos and that with so much light, how the hell do you get such a clean music video with barley any light, literally no noise in that vid, is it in post or while filming, probably both. Please help
I appreciate videos like this
