This is perfect, man. This past week I started thinking about listing my shots so I know I don't waste time, even with a run and gun event. Gonna definitely be following this format! Got a subscription off of this one.
I agree completely YC that pre-production is one of the most important things to do. It saves time and helps you get all the needed shots and a couple of extra. What I usually do is 1st come up with a concept, then write a story, then write a script, then make a story board for the most visible scenes and then I know what shots I'd need then when I know what shots I need I write a shot list witch is composed of all the shots and make a diagram of lighting setups and camera movements for different scenes. When that is done I do a shot plan witch is a shot list but put together all the scenes that can be done as one shot and using the same lighting setup. This is to judge what to do move the lighting and camera or do a wardrobe and makeup change or anything along these lines. One of the most important things to do is I judge how many takes and how long they take factor in how long it takes to set up for each shot and factor in some buffer time of something goes wrong. This lets me create a really tight scheduled that we can stick to so that people know what's being done when and of course from this I can make an equipment list so that the lighting can be moved when makeup and wardrobe is being done etc. On our last music video we were only 5 minutes behind scheduled when we were finished and in 14 hours had to move all the setups, crew and cast trough 5 locations on a half a mile radius where we had to be on time since we only had 10 min at a time to stop traffic in some places. Without preparation the video would not have happened and would have been way way over budget even thou the budget was really really low in the beginning. So great advice YC! :)
I have been following sooo many channels focusing on production/design over the last couple years and soooo many channels fade in and out for me. I gotta say, YCImaing has stayed consistent and I still always click when I see an upload. You are always putting out helpful and engaging content. Thanks!
Even though I know I'll probably never shoot a music video, the concepts you explained here really helped me get my head around how to plan a video. Thank you!
I did not expect to find you on this channel! 😂😂😂 I watch all your videos, I’m a bbq guy too and would love to start my own channel. This is why I’m here hahaha
Shots shots shots shots shots...everybody! Good advice. I think its also helps to keep in mind that you don't need to come up with everything at the same time in one sitting. Write, revise keep going. Thanks!
I always get scatter brained this process eliminates so much confusion &time waste! I’ve been trying to learn how to work with the app shot designer as well. Salute bro!
Really enjoying your videos lately dude, super generous with your knowledge and really easy to follow along, launching my own channel real soon - definitely helped me get there dude!
I'm shooting a music video this Saturday and wanted to create one of these but I had no idea how to. Thank you so much this was so ridiculously helpful!!! This will make things so much easier :)
Thanks for these videos you make, very informative. Truly, I learn a ton seeing your effort of teaching from your mistakes which makes me to be more prepare when I'm facing a client... Speaking to them knowing what I are my steps into getting the job and expectations, so they have a time frame idea. I just get little frustrated you know which is normal when you don't all the equipment and this shotlist is a great idea. Which it was something I've been doing BUT not adding equipment to it, time of the shot, and more visual sequence of the shot. Again great job putting this vid together. I'm learning as I go, and Im picking up as the challenges come.
Thank you for creating this video. I teach film and TV to middle schoolers and it is very difficult to find videos of people that look like them talking about film creation.
im so glad yt recommended this. so many solutions in one video. honestly I could see why my entire life has been a failure. every single moment I've needed a shot list. Everything I have done wrong in my entire life . all the kids that I did not birth . I did not father to all women i never met. failed interviews. lost offers. low sperm count. hereditary alcoholism. i can see why my entire professional career has been at an all time low end hiatus. i needed a fuckin S H O T L I S TTTTTTTTT
I’m new to your channel and subscribed to your channel. Thank you! You inspired me bro. Love your informative videos. Where is the link video of so faith? One love from UK.
I prefer using a tool like Celtx Shots (for Mac) to create a visual shot list. I build up each shot with an image of (more or less) what I want to achieve. The added bonus of this particular app is that you can export the entire storyboard/shot list as a movie file. So you can preview your shoot/edit on a very basic level
This is nothing new to me, it s amazing after doing this for a while you get to discover new ways to better yourself, and to make your work go easier. It s amazing how great mind think alike!
Wassup YC,,Can u do a review of the Video u mentioned in this shot list? For those not too familiar with the terms and various shots? Like an overview type if u overstand what I'm saying..

I shotlisted for a music video for the first time two weeks ago, it's completely done and it's easily said that it's the best work I've ever done.
Two reasons why I enjoy watching your channel: 1. Your knowledge of videography and editing. 2. You're so handsome.
Even though I know I'll probably never shoot a music video, the concepts you explained here really helped me get my head around how to plan a video. Thank you!

Can you doing a video like this specifically on visual treatments and how to create them?
Yup. A shot list helps me to stay on task and move smoothly thru the set
I always get scatter brained this process eliminates so much confusion &time waste! I’ve been trying to learn how to work with the app shot designer as well. Salute bro!

Have you thought about using Adobe Story for your shot list and Treatments or do you feel that it's to much? ... or not enough?
Wassup YC,,Can u do a review of the Video u mentioned in this shot list? For those not too familiar with the terms and various shots? Like an overview type if u overstand what I'm saying..
What's the difference between shot list & storyboard?
Can you drop a link to the tubes you use? And how do you mount them?
Awesome vid! Thanks! What camera were you using for the music video?
