I always keep coming back to this video. It makes me feel alive. I was in high school when this video came out. Can't believe it's been 5 years. Great Video.

[@andrewjmes]

This is ridiculously good bro. Pacing, sound design, grading, everything is so perfect. It has such a mysterious vibe to it which really makes me feel like I am experiencing the year with you. You absolutely CRUSHED IT.

[@AidinRobbins]

Thanks so much Andrew!! We gotta get you in the 2019 edition my guy 📸

[@lukemayer8608]

Both of you guys are great at filmmaking and I hope to see you guys continue to grow! Great job on this Aidin and Andrew your new edit is insane as well!

[@manaiahuta]

both of you are changing the world of film making for the future generations. Extremely proud of you both and i’m so grateful to watch you both grow.

[@kaioliverbohnke7294]

I fully agree. You both are stunning !

[@DaffyYT]

You both should collab, i'm curious as to how awesome it would turn out, you've both blown us away, but a collab would definitely be something you should consider :)

[@nuhibrahim185]

Goosebumps all over my body..... daaaaaamn bruhhhh great work

[@SeanRicalde]

this is still the besg aidin robbins cinematic video for me! classic

[@lukelarsen1672]

I actually watched the 2019 video before this, and I love how the 2 videos connect together

[@RyanKao]

Crazy how far you’ve come dude. Don’t stop your momentum.. push harder all 2019

[@OlivertheJoyboy]

That was absolutely insane Aidin!! The voiceovers were so beautifully blended in with the cinematic shots. I love those rotating hyperlapses! I have no idea how you did that. Such a good video man. You should be proud of your insane progress this year

[@rossinator98]

I'm guessing well-stabilised footage moving forwards through environments, sped up, and add the rotation in afterwards! What impresses me most is the data management to be able to go back and find the shots again at the end of the year!

[@sashankachar4008]

videography is not just about fancy transitions. It's more about telling your own story, in our own way it's more about presenting something that you have in your mind in the most reliable way possible. The flow of this video is something I admire, everything is well composed and it feels like I do exist in this video. I'm just stared to videography and this video is something else, learned a lot.

[@lordownanglo]

Wow man love the editing! Was getting tired of the super fast edits everyone is been doing. You've managed to slow her down and bring her back what great composition!

[@عبدالرحمنمحمدالشريف-و4ه]

I'm So Glad That I'm Know This Channel . Its Was A Great Year ,I Learned So Much Things About Filmmaking , And You Are The One Who Pushed Me To The Next Level There Are Lots Of Channels On KZbin But I Literally Didn't Find A Tutorials Like The Way Your Channel Is And I Am Sure That 2019 Will Be Full Of Creativity Thx Aidin ❤

[@reklasboy]

It is insane how much you accomplished this year. I subbed back in the summer of 2017 when you had like I think it was 5000 subs and you are just blowing up. Proud of all the work you have done.

[@nostaljeck]

damn, that hyperlapse gave me goosebumps!

[@srkalyaniranganathan7433]

Same here

[@evelynkath8243]

Everything in this video is AMAZING. THE MUSIC AND PERSPECTIVES AND COLOUR GRADING! But everything together set such a relaxing and peaceful mood, making me reflect upon my 2018. Thanks for it !

[@Xtalgic]

What an edit! Just wanted to congratulate you man, solid year for you and wanted to say thank you for being a personal inspiration to me and my channel. You’ve taught me a lot! Can’t wait to see what ya got for 2019.

[@aspnnn]

you took something that most people who post “my year videos” don’t add a story to and made it a story. this is prob my fav thing u have ever made and was so inspiring! can’t wait to see what comes in 2019!

[@santoshghimire7469]

This is what youtube was created for. Expressing your creativity and we are the one who appreciate it You are seriously underrated

[@Mu3azOsman]

alright, you have to keep in mind that your tutorials have and still teach us how to make better content. in return we gain new audience, which is partly because of you! so you actually gained hundreds of thousands people, that are on our channels because of you. so thank you!

[@alexandertoh9358]

This was the best 2018 recap I’ve watched on KZbin. 2018 was good for you dude, but 2019 will be even better. Glad I subscribed.

[@drewkocak]

This is incredible brother. Love these 2018 videos. Probably the best color job I’ve seen on any of them yet. Working toward being in a similar place as you KZbin wise by the end of 2019. The build up at the end of this was damn gold 👌🔥

[@NicholasAndrew1]

Congratulations, man. Really good to see people are engaging even more with you work. You've helped me a lot and made me impressed with so much high quality stuff you've made in all this years. I hope you get to grow in every aspects and that you reach every single goal you've set to this year. Regards from Brazil! :)

[@mattj05]

dang. almost cried watching this. i am so inspired from this channel and your videos. i love your style and i am around the same age as you so i feel ever more inspired that i can make stuff like this!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR THIS CHANNEL!!!!!

[@anorawhitee]

So visually and aesthetically pleasing and don't get me started on the technique, it's incredible. I can't wait to see what you have in store in 2019, I know you will be huge, you absolutely deserve it. Much love from France

[@DuncanSmith]

I think this is definitely your best cinematic video yet 👊🏻

[@bupek]

4:00 was actually so epic!😮🔥

[@shanekell]

This is awesome Aidin. It's definitely more unique than the other lumafade and zoom transition films I have been seeing lately. It's been awesome seeing your channel grow as much as it has. Can't wait to see what you release this year. EDIT: Also, thank you so much for rendering this in a 21:9 aspect ratio instead of using black bars on a 16:9 composition. Looks beautiful on my monitor. :)

[@itsmmdoha]

1:59 You taught me that audio effect I'm still watching it in 2020

I really think one of the best creator out there is you ! You inspire people and you make them wana creat more. I really belive you are a big motivation to every one who watch your videos and I hope you will grow even more on this plateform !

[@artistandcamera3245]

wait, I get it now! The ending of this video, became the intro of the 2019...... Brilliant! Thanks for sharing.

[@LuboBachev]

I wasn't feeling like starting to make videos on KZbin consistently. This video though... Makes my hands scratch to pick up the camera at 2 AM, just after coming back from a night photoshoot. Bravo. Absolutely killed it. The colours, the transitions, the story, the build up, the delay, the emotion... Just awesome Aidin! Definitely want to start making videos again because of you!

[@EthanNormanEDC]

this is genuinely one of the best videos I've ever seen. I love the cinematography and the smooth vibe. Keep up the great work!

[@ericjungg]

Hands down one of the best cinematic video I've seen. Got chills watching it. Had to rewatch it couple times. Great work man.

[@muradabdi]

I'm at a loss of words right now. Everything about this was just incredible.

[@muradabdi]

Second time watching this and 4:00 still blows my mind

[@pj_thatcamerakid4647]

This is truly inspiring! Especially for smaller filmmakers like myself that dont have a big channel that still have a passion to work hard to make professional work! Amazing job man!

[@KathleenManalo]

I got goosebumps all throughout the video. Seriously amazing! Your videos bring so much inspiration. I don't have enough knowledge or skills yet to make something like this on my own, but someday I hope I can! Hope you have a beautiful year again this 2019. :)

[@KoteGreen]

Wow. This hit me man. I look at you and see such a bright future. I may be older than you (I am assuming I am older lol) but I look up to you and you work. You are crushing it. CRUSHING IT! Keep fucking creating man! You my friend, are going places!

[@MahdiHassanOsman]

Amazing footage! This just proves it's not always about the equipment but about the one behind the camera!

[@projectorange4123]

no words my dude. mind absolutely blown. you deserve everything you’ve earned this year. here’s to another amazing year! (i reckon you’re going to hit 100k early this year my man)

[@henny03k]

These were the best 5:17 of my life. This really was the best video I've ever watched. You really doing something with a raw and not even interesting looking footage and turn it into something really beautiful. You really don't know how much of an idol you are for me. Really you are inspiring me with every video you make. Especially the tutorials about Hitfilm helped me a lot. Keep up the fantastic work and effort you put in there. I wish you the best for 2019 and I hope I can see more videos like these in near future! Your Henrik⚡

[@StephenShenold]

You crushed this! Absolutely amazing! Thanks for the ride and I look forward to what you have going next!

[@mrinal_boro]

1:57 That transition was so creative. Your editing skills are off the charts. The 360 hyper-lapse at the end was fucking awesome. You are on your way to greatness man.

[@andr_you_ha]

Aidin you are insanely good at what you're doing! It is a pleasure to see when hard-working and inspiring people like you succeed! I wish you all the best!

[@segrad1]

This young man has inspired me to step out there and start making videos. Good job as normal, and thank you for the inspiration and tips. Have the best 2019 ever! PEACE from ATL ✊🏾📸

[@the100guy]

This is the type of video I keep watching to re inspire myself to complete my own ongoing travel video project. Really nice work man

[@sinanerdan7917]

HI Aidin, I've spend some time on writing this little feedback: First of all I want to say that your video is awesome. The well-conceived concept with the start in the end of 2017 and the end in 2019 is something that I haven't seen before. When I saw the effect of the change from 2017 to 2018 in the beginning of the video I was suprised because I didn't expect that but it was a positive suprise. The first seconds of the song gave me chills. I always wonder how you are able to find such impressive songs. In this video you can see very good how you used the music for the cutting of the video clips. From 0:23 to 0:50 there are very slow clips for example the breeze at the cornfield and this fits the song because at that part the song is slow. At 0:50 the song gets a bit more exciting and so the video. But the song is still slow and thats why the sound design is very quit. I think these are enough examples about the harmony of the music and the video. Aidin the scene at 2:00 killed everything. Omg after watching the scene a few times (also with 0.25 speed) I still can't believe how accurate you have made the transition between the real clip and the viewer in hitfiilm. The "real world" part of your video is something that is very rare and I've saw it only once before and that is one reason of many why this is my second favorite part of the video. My absolutly favorite part is from 3:25 to 3:59 with the stacking of many different sound layers and the hactic, fast and compelling videoclips. In these few seconds must be so much work because of all the different transitions you have used. The hypelapses after the drop of the song are all great and left me speechless and so the photo series. The ending is pretty much like the beginning of the video: amazing! All in all you can say that you are very experienced in using sound design and creating a wonderful atmosphere with it. At the end of the comment I wanted to apologize for my bad english and say thank you for 2018 and your amazing videos!

[@AHMEDHAMINE]

thanks for your comment ... for your effort of describing this insane video .

[@yvespochara]

absolutely incredible, i found your channel a few months ago, but keep following and learning from your weekly videos. and this video, holy cow, no words needed, especially this hyperlapse flip killed it. keep up the great content aidin!

[@AidinRobbins]

Thanks for following along!! 🙏

[@thesonganalyst395]

just crazy bro ! just everything about the video and the voiceover and the music just had me drawn in from start to finish, i didnt even want to skip any parts in the video... im impressed man keep it up!

[@brin6494]

I could watch this for hours! I literally felt the vibe of this video! Nailed it!

[@michelelorenzoni8207]

I comment a video rarely... but this is very interesting cause in this five mins you've showed two different video editing style... I love the eccentric slow shoots of the first part and the transitions of the second... Amazing bro! Keep growing and follow your dreams and goals for 2019!

[@itsmarywhat]

This was amazing! Love the music and everything was just soooo smooth! Wish you all the best for 2019 Aidin!

[@AidinRobbins]

Thanks Mary! Glad you enjoyed it 🤙

[@JoseARubio]

This is outstanding!! .... you have a great talent and don't even reach the 20% of your potential yet..... keep it up!

[@LukeKwonGolf]

Dude this is sick!!! Watching this over and over again to pull inspiration from this. Keep bringin the heat! 🔥🔥

[@KennethJang]

Nailed this one man. The story and feelings. All so relatable and the voice over was subtle and so effective. The hyperlapses and timelapses hit me hard man loved it. Keep it up man. Your one of the first people I watched on KZbin and learned filmmaking from. Love to see that you're going places

[@BraineZVisuals]

I am so Hyped for this! I hope you hit at LEAST 50k x2 this year! :) I was wondering if you could do a tutorial about Manual Focus for the g7? Thanks!

[@mylesmcewen8911]

Found your channel in 2018 and was super blown away. Pumped to see such awesome and different videos! BTW loved the part where it zooms out from the shot to laptop!

[@JakeRichandAnnaChah]

love the down tempo vibes, & storytelling aidin, keep making vids, they're class

[@webgraphr718]

You did an amazing job on this Aidin! It was captivating and very inspiring. I'm excited to work on my next project by watching what you accomplished with this wonderful piece. Congrats and looking forward to seeing more from you in 2019!

[@Cristiangrant23]

One of my favorite end of the year videos.

[@madisoncampbell2046]

[@reubengreen976]

Mate that was incredible, the first video I watched of yours was the how to make awesome transitions // editing tutorial, back then I didn't like filmmaking videography what ever you want to call it but you have inspired me so much you are like my favorite KZbinr can't wait to see what you create.

[@Thomas-rn3ky]

You are mad creative Aidin. This is fantastic! Looking forward to see what you bring to KZbin in 2019! Incredible.

[@DebzLife]

[@julianrsch6256]

I write comments only very rarely, but this video was awesome! The transitions, sound design and how you composed the whole video was really good in this one. Thanks for an amazing year!

[@kaedenmurphy9937]

This is an excellent use of the premier feature, and an even more insane edit to go along with it. Just compare this year's edit with the one from last year, Aidin is improving so much!

[@joshmoody7091]

Fantastic video!! Loved the shots and the pacing, from starting out more slowly and then picking it up towards the end! Best wishes for the new year!

[@toria.rey.]

It’s so weird how you took me on the most amazing journey and yet I haven’t even gotten out of my pajamas... thank you 🧡

Mesmerising shots and wild editing bro! Thanks for being such an inspiration, and I hope you have no intention of stopping any time soon.

[@MrZipsta]

That was insane man. It was a journey I went on. Truly.

[@antonintissot]

I didn't see all the work you've done in 2018 but this summary is incredible!

[@DaffyYT]

I'm at a loss for words, this is truely THE BEST thing i've seen

[@g-r-o-m-a-n]

Amazing editing ! You are inspiring me a lot because when I see all the things you did this year, all the achievements you made and because we have the same age (I think) I think that I can achieve my goals. It's very courageous to you to expose yourself on internet and that also inspire me. I hope that what I said was understandable because I know that my english not very good. Best for 2019, you deserve it

[@gauravm.]

Sensational, I felt those goosebumps every now and then, Each beat and each clip.🙌♥️

[@DeathByConfetti]

Sick as always man. Looking forward to your content in 2019.

Dude I stumbled upon your video and was blown away. Something that really caught my eye was the circular motion hyperlapse. Awesome work dude, totally loved it. Subscribed, looking fwd to seeing you more often.

One of the most incredible short films I’ve ever seen! Awesome transitions, great told story. You can be easily compared to Peter McKinnon for example. Great job!
