5 Simple Filmmaking Tricks

[@shepardbrostv]

I can't believe I've been watching you guys for 7 yrs, and I'm finally shooting real tv shows, and documentaries now. thanks guys.

[@thenocrewguy9041]

Good for you congo

[@shepardbrostv]

The No Crew Guy Congo?

[@thenocrewguy9041]

Congrats

[@boxotories]

the reverse trick is genius

[@CrazyNate]

This one was information overload! Thanks, well explained too.

[@filmriot]

Thanks, man. Hope it helped.

[@JoshNorris737]

Love that reverse trick. Definitely getting some use out of this on my channel.

[@FarisPauzi]

That reverse shot really helps me in my project. I'm lucky that I watch this video before shooting. Thanks a lot

[@RyanCampFilms]

I love these types of episodes from you guys!

[@thekaiser4333]

Finally, after over three years, another good funny episode featuring new dirty tricks! Axes and Aerobics, I love it. Well done! I had almost given up hope. PS: I miss Tim's incredible public safety announcements and the merciless craziness from the early episodes. Revive all the great characters you created back then. The Kia-car advert, then, I think it was your first Netflix ad, where Josh wants to drive to the video shop and Ryan steals his car-distributer, Ryan's Hulk Hogan like character and your very first dimension zap clip with Josh, Emily and Tim, Ryans Bat-man, Ryan on a rampage with little Emily instead of writing his scrips and Emily's scary over the top obsession with weapons are all brilliant and unforgettable, … or to use your language: "terrible and beautiful moments of film history" and one can't get better than this in the movies. Even after all those years I am still haunted by those of your videos in my nightmares in a good way. Emily or Stark just staring and saying nothing freaks me out every time. However, It seems you improved your technical skills at the cost of your scriptwriting and storytelling. Trump says: Sad! But I think this Justin has potential once he's found his footing. Let him rage. And remember the advice, my fellow countryman Billy Wilder gave you about the three most important things you need for a good film. PPS: Is Kessler still after you for burning all his money on that fun fair bouncy castles? If so, you deserve it! … but we still want you to somehow escape. ;->

As a professional video editor, reversing a shot, or even flopping it, is a technique I use a lot. These are fantastic tips!

[@filmstuff6781]

1.Making ur room look longer (by moving ur actor to the edge). 2.Faking 180° rule (by not moving the set, lighting and camera, move the actors) 3. Reverse clip in post. (Sometimes its dangerous to hit something which is not safe. Best way to overcome that is to reverse the action in shoot and reverse back it in post) 4. Fake sweat. 5.whip pan (fast movement transition)

[@polymetric2614]

The color grading in the VHS bit is incredible, it looks like it was actually shot on 35mm. It'd be awesome to see a video on that

[@shhhhhhhhhh11]

Justin Robinson workout montage was amazing. Laughing out loud alone in my office. Thank you for that

[@lia7847]

Before I even start a new project for my channel I just rewatch the videos you guys post! if it wasn't for you guys I would still. be shooting all my shots in wides and using auto focus for every shot. Much love film riot!

[@lynnmckenney1987]

[@ParadoxdesignsOrg]

keep up the cheap/free concept videos, they are a big help!

[@noahtheeditor8650]

Would you maybe show us how you got the 80's look? I know there are plenty of existing techniques but I would be interested in what you think.

[@DancinFool]
