Every time I finish watching your videos I'm always left with the same feeling of disbelief and gratitude for this channel actually existing, being so amazing and gifting us with such incredible content consistently. Thank you from the deepest corners of my soul.
I agree. It is of course their way of promoting software, but man what a great to do it. I learn so much AND I have awesome impression about this software that I will prob. never use, but if I have a need - they are in my head rent free.
When I finished high school I wanted to study film making, but couldn't. These videos are so beautifully done they make me feel like I am studying as I wanted to. Cinema is just marvelous. So much work, art, creativity, talent, collaboration...just amazing. Thanks Studiobinder and to this narrator, who makes you get into the topic right away, transporting you to the filming world and forget your everyday worries. ❤
I never understand people who call half the movies they watch "bad". If you realize how much love, sweat, and tears go into making a film, it's really hard not to respect the effort, even if it's not your favorite story.
For viewers though, it is not about the effort. Let's be real. If the result product is not good then the film still gets bad reviews. The most important part behind all this is the story. What do you think?
I just want to thank you for providing the best FREE!!! homeschool curriculum I can find on film production. Should any of my kids be lucky enough to win an Oscar, Golden Globe, Emmy, or even a local film festival, I'll ask that they thank StudioBinder first!
I am not sure that I will ever be involved in film production, but I am very invested in learning about what happens behind the scenes. The process, the execution, the post production. It always makes me love and appreciate each film that I watch. I am so thankful that there are creators like you that share this knowledge for everyone. Not everyone cares for the process, but for everyone who does, a channel like yours is precious. Thank you.
As a film enthusiast that spends time on rolling credits, this episode is highly appreciated, as it explains virtually all the production roles I notice and unable to look up. This documentary, as usual, is not only beautifully made but highly educative. Cannot thank you enough for the effort put into the production of these content!
@@StudioBinder never have i seen a channel that helps us understand and appreciate how beautiful the process is on making a movie..and it makes me sad on how easy it is to see movies these days for free..an art such as these are mostly taken for granted by us..💔
Yes! Just the content I needed from you! And I love when you breakdown movies cinematograpy etc. Can we maybe get another video on lenses where you analyze different film scenes/shots, what focal lenghts they used and how it affects the look and feel of the movie? Those types of breakdowns are always the best type of content to improve.
If Studio Binder has taught me anything it’s that film making magic is the culmination of both vision and dedication of the many many people involved 🎥🎬
How can your films be that good? This is truely demonically amazing how 4 of your videos fit half of a knowledge I was given at the uni for audiovisual production over 3 years...
I have always wondered who's behind all this complexity of movie making. all we see is the finale project and we tend to give most of the credit to actors and directors while the people doing most of this mind bending work is behind the camera. This series of videos have opened my eyes to a whole different angle and watching movies will never be the same.
Cinema directing refers to the role of a film director in overseeing the creative and artistic aspects of a movie. The responsibilities of a director in this role include interpreting the script, developing a vision for the film, selecting actors, guiding their performances, managing budgets, coordinating with the film crew, and ensuring the overall quality and impact of the cinematic experience. Directors also make decisions regarding special effects, filming locations, shot angles, and the film's tone. They play a crucial role in bringing the screenplay to life and creating a cohesive and visually appealing final production.
Neat. In Germany, back when I was boom poling and recording, it was pretty similar. Germans are as usual pretty direct in their language, as few if any use code words such as "speed" for indicating rolling sound or camera. "Ton läuft", "Kamera läuft", i.e. sound running, camera running. Anyone foolish enough to have their mobile phones running that could end up on a sound track with that characteristic "beepbeepbeep...beepbeepbeep" sound is unpolitely asked to spring for a round of drinks. Our priorities for sound were of course capture of sound first and foremost. Second for me was always not interferring with the picture. Boom or mic in the picture is the classic, but so are boom shadows. Camera operators are very happy if you coordinate your boom movements with them. Silk costuming is the enemy of all that is good and holy in sound, especially lavs. If possible we'll cushion soles of shoes with sticky foam pieces. Most women only need to be asked politely if it's ok to tape a lav cable anywhere near their bras, and if possible it's good to have another lady available if one is not part of the sound crew to do the hands-on wiring up duties for actresses uncomfortable with men doing that. I will get in the way of getting things done as little as possible. It's all cooperation. Hell, as a re-recording mixer, producers and directors have happily brought along coffee for a mix, just as I have. We're all there to serve the same purpose, i.e getting it done well. Past all the technicalities and useful procedures, it's important to understand that, and thus also understand that some pressure releases in unhelpful ways sometimes. So help.
Such a great content, and such a great chanel! All the stuff you produce is highly professional and an immeasurable value for the film making community. Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking your time n effort to explain the film production process in every video of yours and educate us about the stuff that happens behind the camera. Highly recommended channel for all film enthusiasts out there like me who are passionate about watching and discussing films!!
Thank you. After this everytime I see credits at the end of a movie, I'll see the person names who had poured their sweat and blood for a full length film, instead of just a long list of names.
Web Search: Film Production Explained - Each Step of the Production Process The film production process can be broken down into several key stages, each with its own unique set of challenges and requirements. Here's a brief overview of each step: 1. Development: This stage involves coming up with a concept or idea for a film, and then developing it into a full script or treatment that can be pitched to investors and studios. This may involve extensive research, outlining, and rewriting to refine the story and characters. 2. Pre-production: Once the script is finalized, pre-production begins. This stage involves casting actors, hiring crew members, scouting locations, and creating a detailed production schedule. It's also important to secure funding and any necessary permits or permissions. 3. Production: This is the actual filming stage, where the script is brought to life on set. This can be a long and complex process, with multiple takes and scenes requiring careful coordination and direction from the director and crew members. 4. Post-production: After filming wraps, the footage goes through a series of editing, sound mixing, and color grading stages to create the final product that audiences will see in theaters or on streaming platforms. This can involve extensive collaboration and communication between the editor, director, and other post-production specialists. 5. Distribution: Once the film is complete, it's time to get it out into the world. This can involve working with distributors, negotiating deals, and promoting the film through marketing and publicity campaigns. 6. Exhibition: Finally, the film is released to theaters, streaming platforms, or other distribution channels, where audiences can enjoy it. This stage involves careful planning and execution to ensure that the film is presented in the best possible light and reaches as many people as possible. Each step of the production process presents its own unique set of challenges and opportunities, but with careful planning, collaboration, and execution, it's possible to create a successful and memorable film that resonates with audiences. down into several key stages, each with its own unique set of challenges and requirements.
We only ever hear about the actors (first), directors (second), and (occassionally) the cinematographer (third), with special mention to the editor if they're exceptionally notable. Almost never do we hear about 99% of the rest of the crew behind-the-scenes who do all of the heavy lifting of an entire shoot. We see their names in credits, but none are recognizable. They're the invisable machine. This celebrates them, their sacrifices and the work they put in for cinema.
Please provide an overall guide to understand and make films for those who want to pursue a career in filmmaking and don't know much about the technicalities ❤❤
You have to love films and very knowleadgeable of them to match film scenes to this video's script. I super love smart and entertaining long form content.
The moment when all is set and every department replies their calls and the slates are being called is always so exciting for me. Love it. Thanks for the detailed breakdown on this. 🫶🏼
I have learned a lot from this channel because rather showig fancy stuff things are explained in detail basically your content is detail and reason behind oriented followed by great visuals so that even a true beginner would understand the lesson easily my personal favourite is your video about camera movement . On youtube most of the tutors say to get a better look move the camera add parallez effect bla bla bla but dont tell about the language behind it . I always wanted to know there must be a reason behind a movement i always had a strong feeling in my mind that rather to achieve a look there must be something else behind the camera movement it can't be just a look there must be some emotion which was explained precisely by you . Now i use camera movement as language and for better look now i use colouring and framing and composition types only . If possible kindly make a video about what kind of colours are used when or why the movie was graded that way etc so that we could make better videos
Can you make a video recommending some good books for directing and storytelling. It'll be super helpful for those who can't afford film school. Or you can cover other important topics also. ❤
I hate this channel...😢😢 it came late after the train left in my life.. but still i love this channel bcoz one day i may get into the train again in future...❤😅😅😅
Can you please teach me how to make scen that imply something without showing it? I alway have problem with this. Like I dont want to make spicy scene or scene like character off himself, just some shots that imply the character did it..Also a big Fan, i love your channel. Your video about shot size, camera angle and camera movement help me a lot.

I don’t know. I’ve never watched sound like this. It’s truly helpful for every week. Thank you for posting this kind of videos ❤
Can you make a video about directing and acting in a film at the same time? Thanks.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Cinema directing refers to the role of a film director in overseeing the creative and artistic aspects of a movie. The responsibilities of a director in this role include interpreting the script, developing a vision for the film, selecting actors, guiding their performances, managing budgets, coordinating with the film crew, and ensuring the overall quality and impact of the cinematic experience.

Amazing how much is going on behind the scenes. The average viewer has no idea how complex it is
Simply I love this channel, this voice its the key, thank a lot for your content
