@@jordanadudek honestly it seems like theres few videos out there that cover decision making when it comes to getting coverage with camera movement! Lots breaking down focal length selection and shot lists but few cover camera choreography/planning scene movement!
@@ReasonBeingMedia oh man. You picked a good one hahah. That’s a fantastic topic, and there’s probably a reason there’s not a lot out there, it’s HARD haha. You’ve given me something to think about 🤔
@@jordanadudek definitely a challenging topic especially because the demands change drastically depending on the type of production! Thanks for the reply 🙏🏻 keep up the great work!
@@jordanadudek man, these shot recreations! I think not only is it great content, but seeing how one videographer would recreate something vs how I would’ve thought to recreate it definitely gets the gears turning. 🔥
@@jordanadudekI mean, if there’s more shotdeck shots that you were interested in trying to recreate, I’d definitely watch those. I enjoy lighting breakdowns.
This was fun to watch! The only things I noticed were the thickness of your rain and its slightly diagonal direction, rather than being in a straight and well-defined line, like the shots from Ozark. Overall, it's a great video, and the lighting is also very good. Keep up the good work.
@@jordanadudek I would say now use that technique develop your own scenes, not inspired on a movie but go crazy now developing a scene with totally crazy elements that will Make the producers say ”you know I didn’t thought of shooting that like that showing that kind of stuff”
Great video thank you for the breakdown. Just subbed. Which spotlight works with the 200x? I was under the impression the aputure one wouldn't work with it despite the Bowens mount.
Thank you for watching! I use a Godox 36 degree spotlight I believe. I don’t know if it’s PRECISELY optimal for the Amaran 200x, but I don’t have any problems at the moment 😂
Hey Sara! Glad to connect with you. For this specific lighting setup, it was mostly guess work. I looked at the example, and tried to see what sources of light I think were in the scene. Often, the shadows can tell you where lights aren’t, which can then help you figure out where lights can be!
Well done dude ! just a little question, how did you expose skintone for this shot ? 41% for middle grey on keylight ? or overexpose just below 94 IRE et pushing down the exposure in post ? Cheers from France :)
Hey man! Exposing for this shot was a challenge. I honestly think the keylight was closer to 20% or so when shooting, but I then had to push it down in post. Getting the moody look does not follow conventional exposure calculations IMO, but others might say otherwise. Having a camera with great shadow DR like the Alexa can certainly help. The key in this scene ended up being quite bright, and it was a challenge to get the shadows to not be lost while still having separate in the skin.
Great content, thank you ! And great performance on set with a limited amount of gear. Yes... in the name Fresnel, the "s" is mute. And the name of this immense physicist, father of many laws in optics, sounds "fray-nel". Such as in many French words/names there are mysterious letters. Actually this is a matter of evolution, and the way words are pronounced... then written. In french, the letter combination "es" started disappearing around the early XIXth century. It was then replaced by the letter "e" with an accent, making it "ê"... simplification. The most obvious exemple is "fenêtre" ( = window) that used to be written "fenestre". All letters were pronounced, then the letter "s" got silenced, then it disappeared and came the "ê" to replace them all. French is a rich and complicated language, for sure. But it offers so many variations, with millions of potential subtleties, making it a very powerful communication tool. Such as the "cinematograph". Which is French too... coincidentally. 🤗
Oh man! This is some incredible info! Didn’t know Fresnel originated from French. I actually took a few years of French in school, but of course, I forgot haha
How, god, how I ask you do the YTers who explain everything in close, nice detail have about 2k subs and guys like McKinnon who are all show and no substance have a gazillion??? Anwyays, enough ranting. Great stuff! I just think the water could have received a little more work. Otherwise, really great!
The whole production, process, breakdown, etc… one of a kind man this was a masterclass in showing how to develop skills in a fun and meaningful way!
Thank you so much man 🥲
Any other types of scenes or filmmaking processes you wanted to get broken down?

@@jordanadudek man I’m gonna have to sign up for shotdeck 😂
@@ohthatsjustbrandon frameset is another good option too!!
this is up there with the nest content on here
truly a master
You’re far too kind 🥲. I’m really glad you enjoyed it!
I honestly lean more towards your shot than the actual original one, excellent job!
Oh man! Maybe I should shoot the next Ozark episode 😂
Thank you man!
Great Breakdown! Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it!! 💪🏻
what a great little guide to recreating any shot I see now - I so appreciate this inspiration
Thanks Jordan
Glad it helped you Samuel! And happy you’re here
here before this blows up. this was amazing.
Thank you man! And for the record, I love mustard 🤫
Awesome work Jordan!
Thank you so much man! 🥲
Yoooo brother, this is such good content! Learned a lot from this, great job 🔥
Great to hear as always man! Hope you’re doing well!
you nailed it👏looks amazing I love it!!!
Thank you man! Glad you watched 🥲
Fantastic! Love this kind of filmmaking content!
Thank you Steven! Hoping to produce some more like this! Any other scenes or specifics you’d like to see get covered?
@@jordanadudekI mean, if there’s more shotdeck shots that you were interested in trying to recreate, I’d definitely watch those. I enjoy lighting breakdowns.
Great breakdown, thanks
Thank you Jonathan. And thank you for watching!
More shot breakdowns bro u killed it super nice breakdown
Thank you!! Any specific shots you’d like broken down?
This is very well done, thanks for the tutorial!
Thank you so much for watching!

You’re absolutely right. The rain could’ve used more attention. It was almost 2am at this point in the night and didn’t want to waste more water 😂
@@jordanadudek bro I’m impressed by what you have accomplished, honestly keep up the amazing work.
@@Kashilembo thank you man!! That really means a lot 🥲
Any other scenes you’d want to see a recreation of?
@@jordanadudek since you asked anything from oppenheimer would he dope . 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@Kashilembo oh lawd haha. So many wonderful frames from that film!
Glad I found this channel.. subscribed.
Glad you’re here man! Hope this helped you
Love it dude!!! Good work!
Thanks man! I don’t know if we’ll have any rainy car scenes for our upcoming shoot, but it’s better to be prepared 😆
Rain in the foreground would’ve sealed it. Nice work
Yup, I needed a bigger source for sure. Or at least to back up the source I did have. Thank you for watching!
Noice job brother 👏👏👏
Thank you man! 🥲
Loved this more than the original!
Oh man! Thank you so much! Now I just need to wait for an Ozark producer to hit me up 😂

@@turyboy I’ll definitely have to try that! You’re making me sweat just thinking about it tho 😅
Amazing! I want to try this too
Awesome!! If I could do it, you can too!!
Soo good man hell yes
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it!!
This was amazing, thank you so much!
Of course man! Thank you for watching! Hope it helped
perfect
Thank you Michael! Hope this helped!
Love it man, can't wait to have some lights to play around with in the future - would love to do some recreation work on my channel as well!
Awesome man! Recreation is an incredible practice, and it happens to be pretty fun too!
lets go this was gas
Yessir 💪🏻
Great content, well presented. Subbed! I too have the Amaran 200x - just wondering what model spotlight attachment you're using on yours..?
Thank you so much! Glad you’re here!
I use a Godox 36 degree spotlight, and it seemed to work great 🤷🏻♂️
Great video thank you for the breakdown. Just subbed.
Which spotlight works with the 200x? I was under the impression the aputure one wouldn't work with it despite the Bowens mount.
Thank you for watching! I use a Godox 36 degree spotlight I believe. I don’t know if it’s PRECISELY optimal for the Amaran 200x, but I don’t have any problems at the moment 😂
I am a budding film maker and I still underestimate the work required to get the lighting. How did you learn to do lighting set up?
Hey Sara! Glad to connect with you. For this specific lighting setup, it was mostly guess work. I looked at the example, and tried to see what sources of light I think were in the scene. Often, the shadows can tell you where lights aren’t, which can then help you figure out where lights can be!
I love this! What is the lens you used?
Thank you! I used an older Nikkor-s 55mm 1.2
good job bro
Thank you man! Glad you’re here 🥲

Hey , which lens have you used on this? Incredible
Thank you! I used a Nikkor 55mm 1.2 on this! The aperture was around 1.4
Great content, thank you !
And great performance on set with a limited amount of gear.

Oh man! This is some incredible info! Didn’t know Fresnel originated from French. I actually took a few years of French in school, but of course, I forgot haha
@@jordanadudek yes, Augustin Fresnel was French (late XVIIIth, early XIXth) and we owe him a lot. Actually most of the basic laws in Optics.
How well does the Aputure Spotlight work with the Amaran 200x?
I’m sure it works great. The one I’ve been using is the Godox 36 degree modifier
what lens was the sections of you talking recorded on?
I used a Nikkor-S 55mm 1.2, which was the same lens I filmed the recreation with too!
👏qual👏it👏y
Thanks brother! Hope you’re doing well!
the way this was filmed i thought you’d have atleast 200k….. wow
You’re too kind man! Maybe one day, but just enjoying the journey and the connections made on the way :)
Your voice is very nice
Thank you so much! I think I mumble a bit too much 😂
