Again thanks for the BTS cuts that just show the flow of what happens on set when creating. The transparency is much appreciated, you all rock!!
Thank you!
This is my favorite series to watch and you’re quickly becoming my favorite TH-camr. Thanks for sharing things like this, I’m a beginner cinematographer/dp and want to do the sort of work that you do. These transparent bts videos have been more educational than any course or school I’ve been to. Thank you!
Thank you so much
This has quality become the most important channel on TH-cam for filmmakers!
Thanks!
So grateful to be able to direct this project man, thanks for bringing me on! Awesome video can't wait for people to see the full commercial

Thank you for this awesome content! This really helps a lot for up and coming film makers including myself and thank you again for sharing the whole process. Please keep going 🙏
THESE ARE SO GOOD. Such a valuable inside for newer cinematographers to level up their craft :) Keep these coming please
Appreciate it
Listening to the podcasts and afterwards watching these BTS really just paints the big picture, Carlo really we owe you 🎉
Thanks!
Hey Carlo, I am really grateful for your videos. Sharing the BTS videos is really helpful for us future aspiring DP's/cinematographers. It's also refreshing seeing a chill and humble DP and your relationship on set with the cast and crew. Keep being humble and may God lift you high and high. I've learn so much from you, things I can even apply even using my Nikon camera😅 Please keep such videos coming.
Much love from Kenya.
Thank you for the kind words!
Thanks for the peek behind the scenes.
I hear Durand Jones & The Indications - Witchoo playing in the background, nice.
Listening to you talking gets rid of my stress and calm down my nerves. On top of that, you teach so much stuff and so valuable that I am very grateful Giovanni.
Thank you!
I love these BTS showing the process, lighting, working with talent the whole sha-bang!! Keep the vids coming fam!
More to come!

Wow! Put a lot into this for a spec! Amazing!
That's the plan! Go all in
This is super dope bro, I must say I can see the growth brow amazing
Incredibly insightful video Carlo
Thank ya
Carlo…I can’t tell you enough how incredible it is has been to watch your growth and progression as a creator! And I know this is only the beginning of an incredible career! You’re killing it man!
P.S. I still get quite the kick seeing the pool noodles being used on the Pavotubes as Diffusion. Incredible!
Hahahah thank you!
So cool getting to see this BTS footage along with your explanation throughout it!
Man this was awesome! So cool to see you grow!
Thanks dawg
thank you for this video , it's help me a lot of work mate !
Well done 👍
Thanks very much for sharing this BTS..
this transparrency behind the scenes and is so good
Thanks!
Love the development of the channel, keep it up
Thanks, will do!
soooo cool to watch, thank you!! 😍😍 such a chill vibe on the set.
may i ask where did you learn so much about lighting? this is some next level i couldn‘t come up with, where all these types of lights need to be in order to create a specific look…😅
Right, I haven’t watched the whole video yet as I wanted to stop here and note something. The way you spoke about the sponsor and how you build it into the video as part of the process instead of a “sponsor break” is so simple, yet effective. I’d be much more likely to go and check it out than the “in your face” advertisements. Regardless of how true to reality it might have been to the actual process of you guys finding your sound, I wish we’d see more of this kind or including a sponsor!
I appreciate this comment a lot thank you!
Thanks for sharing. Great insight.
Thabks
Thank you for the aspect ratio, perfectly fits my ipad
love the bts! makes me see how other filmmakers work.
Hey Carlo, been following you for a while after your work on Danny's film. Awesome breakdown of BTS. Hopefully looking forward to working with you in the future. All the best of best to you.
Thanks!
Loving these BTS videos on location Carlo!! So valuable
Thanks!
thanks for sharing this with us! Seeing this makes me want to go out and shoot something
You should!
Great job and thx for sharing
Watching from Brazil🇧🇷 a hug!
Hellllo :)
I've always been a 1 man band. It's crazy to me to put so much work into 1 scene. Maybe one day I'll be doing more of these kind of jobs.
You will
thx for the breakdown, interesting
Great ! Thank you. Really.
You are welcome!
Great video, as always!! Big fan here. Looking forward to more content like this, hopefully with Douglas too! Steadicam look is always so nice.
I have one question for you: I was wondering, do you prefer high or low density fluid haze? I was considering using haze in some months for some clips I will have to shoot, for a jazz music group. I did some research about haze and I saw there are different types of density...
Thanks! I think it depends on the look but low density for more atmos loom maybe high density for a more visually noticble haze
Your production designer is so cool and humble 🤞🏽
She’s amazing
Love BTS like this. It really showed how this set had a friendly mellow vibe between everyone. As a self-taught DP, I feel it would be good to learn some of the common terminology used by DPs. From some of what I heard, I could kinda guess what was being said. But, if there is a glossary of DP terms somewhere, I would love to get my hands on it. Anyway, this was a great video. It's always fascinating to watch BTS and see how everyone works together. Thanks.
Good note! Maybe I’ll make a video on it
@@carlostigs I know a lot of us would appreciate it!!
Love your work as always and BTS - such a great learning material. Also I love how cool you all are on the set. Are you nervous while shooting? Are you nervous more before the shooting day than on the day?
Im usually nervous on my way to set but when I arrive it all goes away
You are the reason why I'm buying a ursa 12k next
very insightful kinde informative educational and inspirational for those how starting this career path. me personally you are the perfect exemple how this indutry must work and creat. thanks and i wish i have more subscribe button.
Thankyou for sharing information with the world... I learn alot from you❤😂
My pleasure 😊
kinda random, but im gonna need to see some sort of wardrobe tour lol ur fits are always great. love your work bro
Goodwill, Zara, Forever 21
Love it
Thank ya
Strong💪
Cool video !How do you not set off the smoke alarm with all that haze?
Love the BTS and the look of this spec ad. I would like to know how you calculate the time you need for each shot or how many shots did you do that day in total?
Thank you. And based on experience, Shit order and type. So calculating the time it takes to light a scene and how many shots we can get within that one set up without changing. It varies every time but after a while of doing it you can anticipate length of time some things will take
5:19 classic dp moment ;)
Classic jndeed
LOVE these kind of Bts videos
This is freakin awesome as always! Whats the lens at 13:13, love the look of that close up wide angle!
18mm on full frame!
love the pool noodle effect
Goat
Man I can't express what kinda value you are putting out by releasing the bts tysm.
BTW how tall are you?
What is the resolution of this video?
Thabks
@@carlostigs rest 2 questions?
Those lighting diagrams are sick, Carlo. How did you design them?
Within the Sidus app
What lenses/filters are on this? Big flares!
The sponsor spot was perfect haha. It felt like I would miss an important part of the video if I skipped the sponsor 🙏🏼
Hahahaha!
Great stuff. The real question is, did you bring your yogamat on set?
HHah I did not
I’ve been wondering this for a while now, how do you get that white over exposed look in the window without it actually being over exposed?
IF you ever need a loader i would love to come out and work
Cool! When & where is the spot coming out?
Next week
In a recent video you talked about the responsibilities of being an EP and securing budget. I'm really curious about this project since it was a spec ad and you didn't have a client paying for it. I've been directing in Charlotte NC for a decade and even though I have a great community of talented collaborators, they don't work for free. Especially not with the amount of kit you're using here. Is this entire cast/crew lending their talents and gear for this project, or are you paying them? If so, where is that budget coming from? Thanks for the content, keep up the great work.
Hey! So MusicBed sponsored the project and helped fund it. The director and I also put some of our own money into it
any chance you will do big breakdown of the lightning in the feature film you shoot and why you did what you did?
I do plan on that actually!
@@carlostigs really want to see even if it will be more then one video i really love the final look in every scene you did amazing work
Imagine having to be shown how to hold vinyl!!
hi ,Gian Carlo Stigliano where i can see ur Commercial?
I want to shoot spec projects. But I’m terrible at directing. I also don’t enjoy producing/finding actors/locations. I just like being a dp and editing. I can hire out a director and producer. What it feels odd, that I’m the one wanting to do this project but not leading it. Would I hire a director and tell them to come up with an idea and just have me shoot it? Its been confusing so that’s why I have avoid spec project but I what to do them. Any advice?
Just do what I did. But also bring on a producer if you want. You can be the creator of a concept and idea but allow that idea to be put in the hands of other great directors creators etc
What resolution are you exporting in for your YT video?
4k
great seeing all the BTS content
Thanks guys😊
Which steadicam is that?
I'm assuming that your tripod? What sachler head is that? Does it counterbalance that massive camera or you have to just lock it off?
I think it’s an 18p
It can counter balance
What filters were you using in your matte box?
Glimmer glass and black satin
Thanks for these BTS! Where can we find the commercial?
Coming out next week!
@@carlostigs ok great! 🙏
where can i watch full completed video ???
Check my most recent video on my channel
The real question is where did you get that vest? Where's the affiliate link for that?
Amazon baby! Fisherman’s vest
You know what yeah yeah that now you pointed it out… yeah yup that vest…😅😂
@@carlostigs 🙌
I want to see the commercial pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee
Next week!
Love the BTS
Nice open gate bts
For around 3:40 is the audio I backtracked like 2 seconds?
I don’t think so
giancarlo r u Italien?
u have worst entry to each vidoe that i always enjoy :)
Hahhaha
Is there a reason for the crop?
I like it
Noice. Im still watching. Stop interrupting me Carlo.
Angelica really has some beautiful teeth’s
Thanks myself I'm a DOP assistant from Bollywood
I’m first here
Welcome
3:2?
Indeed
Two scenes take a lot of time.
Indeed
BTS Should include the client's request, budget, treatment, shot list etc. It would be nice to see some of the paperwork, not just the shoot.
It was a passion project……
@@carlostigs OK, my bad. Maybe you can do that as a passion project, communication with the client, deciding on what and how to shoot, treatment, shot selection, team, gear, shoot and editing and delivery.
Thanks BTS
BTS is not about showing off great gear, it's about the struggle to get the job, the budget, team selection, location, actors, gear choosing and why, rehearsal, shot selection etc, and who to edit.
Well not really.. the point of this video is to show behind the scenes of the shoot day.
@@carlostigs Hi Gian, thanks for responding, I accept your view, I guess I am looking for a BTS that shows the communication between you and the client, how you decide on the shoot, look and feel, treatment and shot selection etc. Those are the areas I struggle with.
Gian, you didn't say you're fine. Hope you are! :)
