5 tricks for FILMMAKERS who want more TRAVEL in their life.

[@michaelerbreviews]

I found your channel yesterday. You've gained 1K viewers since yesterday. You are on your way to becoming a KZbin sensation. Excellent content, perfect delivery with that blend of humor, profanity and professional knowledge. Look forward to your future videos. And thank you for producing real content.

[@KaiAndrew]

I have no idea how youtube led me to your channel, but I'm glad it did. Phenomenal video and love the style and personality. Your demeanor reminds me of a good buddy of mine. Keep rockin'!

[@markalden]

That powerbank hack is absolutely amazing!!!

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks Dude. Yeah I'm on a trip now and I'm using a much larger one to charge all my cameras while in my backpack! So dope.

[@MrDeliciousCreator]

@@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL I have tried three different power banks and not getting the same result as you. All three are 5V 2A and only adding extra hour to the battery life when plugged in.

[@Monuments_to_Good_Intentions]

yes it is! I made my own bracket to adapt the Rode video mic to the side of my camera so I can undersling the camera using the Ronin S! Video on my channel of that.

[@eformance]

@@MrDeliciousCreator Unfortunately there are a lot of frauds in the power bank biz. Generally, you get what you pay for. The higher the price, the higher the quality, to a point, then it's just gouging. I have a USB load tester and I've found cheap ones that are rated at 2600mah to be really 600mah. Look for reputable brands in the $40-60 range, you can also get "jump packs" that have USB out, these are generally rated at around 55 watt hours, or ~15000mah and contain LiPo batteries, so they're relatively light.

[@WalkaboutLife]

I’m starting to watch your videos with the loyalty of Neistat’s before he got rich and famous. Im want to see your take on a vlog when life is busy.

[@LukusMaxamus]

The thumbnail was a useful tip! Use it to get cheaper flights by entering the cargo hold. Not the most comfortable but it works!

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

BINGO!!!

[@carlocostantini4480]

What? Can you please explain. If you choose to reply, consider messaging me on FB. Thx

[@hiltonhawkes396]

You have a remarkable, relaxed style that is an absolute joy to watch... then you amp it up with seriously useful info too. Very glad I found this channel, thanks for your great work.

[@designmediaconsultants2867]

I have a media pass from working with a news organization. Got me into political and press events in DC, etc. But some areas you needed additional security clearance. Most things I could get into. Still have my pass, no expiration date on it. Use it occasionally.

[@baorichard4345]

What about event like EDC ?

[@allthingsdandan.2711]

This might be my new favourite channel... Eric Bana lookalike, occasional charming profanity and great content.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Bahaha that's awesome. Eric bana that's a first!

[@allthingsdandan.2711]

MAKE. ART. NOW. Haha just don’t turn green. Keep up the good work Josh, really engaging stuff.

[@Leukick]

Eric Bana??? Wtf is your problem 😂😂😂

[@SergAI]

Was literally about to comment the same thing. Getting Casey Neistat vibes

[@surya4671]

I was shooting a wedding early this month and i have the a7iii, the good part is the battery lasts almost whole day, bad part was i have just 1 battery since i never did a wedding shoot before. I carried a 20k mAh powerbank with me everywhere and had a long usb cable. I also had the a7iii mounted on a mono pod. End of day i had like 3 more hours of shoot and 30% battery. For the last 30 mins i just plugged the camera into my powerbank and stuck the powerbank in my pocket.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

It works!

[@BigPowerAL]

Really like the battery bank hack! Seems like I’m learning something new and useful with every video of yours. Big thanks for sharing.

[@EdDeAsis]

The powerbank hack is what I also did to mine! Pretty nice especially since my A7iii has a cage

[@james_hy_kang]

I subscribed you yesterday or the day before that, idk, whatever. At that time you had ~7900 subs, now it's 10k. That, is something. And you have a whole different style of making video. Not copying from anyone, as far as I know. And what I like most about you is that you are kind of down to earth(? I think) and making a lot of thing by yourself(I've never seen any other filmmakers using soldering iron before). From the way I see it, that is showing both professional abilities and capablity of solving problems. Thank you for all the tips and tutorials, can't wait to see more!

[@3litza]

I just found you channel and have pretty much binge watched all of your videos today during work. Good thing i'm researching on video equipment and cinematography

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks Yo!

[@lorenzobelli7172]

O9oo8l

[@FlyingJackalope]

Wow! Genius hack with the charger brick. Definitely going to try that one.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Yeah I have an even bigger one now that charges all my camera gear in my backpack......lasts about 2 weeks. I will do a video on it soon for my travel stuff / gear etc.....

[@mikepawlikguitar]

Love that Lebowski reference art on the wall lol. Great vid dude.

[@JStieloSoloPhysique1987]

Im so glad i came across this channel.. every video ive seen so far is dope. And I live in santa barbara. No one has really tapped into that market when it comes to cinematic videography yet.. I'm gonna make it mine!!!

[@killerskincanoe]

i subbed a while back... but I haven't gone back to the beginning. i'm here now. and i'm gonna watch them all.

[@danasuechilds]

Just had to rewatch this...can you do more of these hacks?? :)

[@jacobhenry612]

Only found you're channel recently and honestly mate I love it, I would love to do sit down at the desk and talk type videos like this too and I hope they would be half as good as this. Keep going man! It's sick

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks Jacob!!!

[@marjunix007]

Hands down my favorite artist 🙌🙏🙏

[@codyturk]

I agree

[@dillonjohnson7833]

Bro that battery bank idea is absolutely sick! Why the hell haven’t I thought of that

[@CoasterTails]

Love the videos! That battery bank hack is an awesome idea. Gonna have to give that one a shot.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Dope dude! Got a follow up video for that soon!

[@SimonVisuals]

You can make a kickstarter for your battery charging solution 👍 thanks for the great tips, unfortunately in Europe we have no such thing like TSA Precheck

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Not a bad idea!

[@echospage]

in amsterdam we have something called privium, members have there own lounge, parking area with connecting tube that makes the walk from the parking garage to airport itself a breeze, own checking and all you have to do at TSA is scan your card and eye, xray bag and your good to go.

[@DjFranz876]

Coming from all the top KZbinrs...you are awesome and this is definitely awesome content. - a mobile filmmaker, Pixel 2XL + Mavic Air + GOPro Fusion

[@phillipschimek7545]

Watching your videos make me want to, tape, glue, valcro and mount my LIFE to the wall. Great viedeo. Thank you so much.

[@DANandSALLY]

Awesome work Josh thanks!

[@andramora]

That battery idea is brilliant!

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

I use an even bigger one now and I charge everything in my backpack! 2 cameras, gimbal, gopros ....etc

[@angelnievesphoto]

That power bank idea is great. Thx!

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

I now just fly with a power bank and leave all my batteries at home. My camera charges in my bag.

[@LimitedSpectrum]

I like the cheese plate battery pack hack. I tried gaff-taping my power bank to my tripod when I went to the L.A. Arboretum for some night photography/light painting, but when I plugged it in to my a6000, it kept trying to go into USB data mode. Know the a7 series works like this makes me lust after it even more.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

switch from data mode to USB power ....I think its in the folder settings to the far right on the menu, USB connection. Its either that or the a6000 requires a dummy battery and a 12v power supply...you can find one and a battery bank that supplies 12v.

[@LimitedSpectrum]

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I did find the option for USB power mode, but it still gets confused when I turn on the camera. Charges just fine when turned off, though. My workaround is just carrying like 8 batteries in my pockets, then 500 more in my bag. But... that a7III, though....

[@marcvictoria1414]

Incredible ideas with the power bank!!!

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks Marc!

[@iptaylor]

TSA Pre-check is available for some non-US citizens. You must apply for "Global Entry" where TSA-pre is included. Great content :)

[@aramatkinson]

I stumbled across your channel today and I've just been binge watching since. Frikken wish TSA existed in England! FML. Also I'm definitely going to pick up some cheeseplates now.

[@thenaje]

This channel is boss. Currently powering thru all the vids. Good shit my man!

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

[@insomniacs0]

Thanks for great content Josh, I've been binge watching your videos today. Quesiton: How long have you been doing videos/photos ?

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

I bought my first camera end of 2013. So almost 5 years now.

[@damianruchti]

So now I've watched all of your vids. It's freaking addicting Keep on keeping on brother!

[@notsoankit]

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks Alex!

[@Rob1656]

Might be time to revisits this one. I know you have some new hacks.

[@danielirvine7468]

Love the power bank cheese plate combo my Sony lasts 20 mins also Hopefully this may stop the over heating too?

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

maybe not with overheating....but a freezer pack will help.

[@ProPhotoTips]

Those are some gold tips right here!

[@Metaldetectiontubeworldwide]

*BASICALY* perfect hacks , bro 😁😉 Well done great budy , i am already on a daily hook 😎

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks yo!! You watch all my stuff already?!!

[@Metaldetectiontubeworldwide]

@@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL At least three a day bro 😎..i would say to keep the doc away , but had the "Flu" ...so not that appropriate 🤣😉.. Grrz john

[@davidchait3003]

Dude nice video but get global entry instead of tsa pre. (it's the about the same price and includes pre check too)

[@othentikgym974]

Thanks for all the hacks!

[@thespiritx]

I used 3M Command Strips to mount the battery packs to my TASCAM and cameras on our last shoot. The mounting plate is a much better idea and I might be doing that soon.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Let me know how it goes!

[@mohammadmahdisokhanvar5656]

good job man .... ty for all advice

[@rodrigosilva-hu9hv]

Hello. I have a sony A7III. Been following your channel and I admire your work. Can I ask your help to choose a lens? I work in real estate, if you have money lets say 1200 dolars, would you buy only one lens but a good one, or would you buy several (one for video and photo or two different lens for each thing instead? And what would it be the lens? Thank you in advance

[@VideoUpskill]

Great work mate, the battery bank is great idea

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks man......I have a few more for the Sony a7sII coming up int he next week or two. Thanks for watching!

[@m.fajrilafkaaralimuchtar2470]

This is great, man! Will stick on

[@lkfxfotografiavideo177]

Love the power bank hack! Will definitely do it myself, there's a company that recently made a power bank built in an L bracket, but we all know how expensive that world be 😏 better do it DIY

[@Jeremy3777]

Nice. Looking for much more content from you.

[@caysh3352]

incredible video maker

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Thanks!

[@buttonupproductions6639]

Hey man I love what you did with the power bank for the sony. I have the same power bank and am trying to get it to power my sony but it just says connection to USB. What are your USB settings on your sony

[@spartan1628]

I know you only have 2 videos out but I am DEFINITELY subbing, can't wait to see your other videos to come

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Oh thanks, man! Its been such a process trying to figure out I want to do these videos on and that is the exact response that tells me im on the right track. THANK YOU!

[@orangebowtieproductions9470]

Great content! Looking forward to more videos!

[@kylestewart4444]

Is that the Batis 25mm? I'm trying to decide on which two lenses to buy first for my a7III. It's supposed to arrive in a couple weeks and I keep going back and forth between the Batis 25mm, the Sony/Zeiss 55mm, the Sony 85mm and the Sigma Art 24mm. I know that all of them are good lenses but once I decide on two of them, it'll be a little while before I'm able to save up enough money to buy more so I'm a bit hesitant.

[@Andre-fi5oq]

hey josh, what is this amazing desk you are working on? love the texture and color! do you built it on your own? :) Greetings from germany! Andre

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Are you talking about my red computer desk? Dude I made that desk out of a piece of trashed fence. So I sanded it, painted it and cleaned up the rusted gate hinges a little. I'll snap some photos and upload to Instagram later. If you're talking about working on stuff for the opening montage, it's probably the walls to a Time Machine I built last year for burning man. I have a whole episode I'm working on just for that topic alone. :)

[@Andre-fi5oq]

Oh I meant the red computer desk! Looks really awesome :) so u basically make art out of trash! :D

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

pretty much......I love that damn desk.

It's a better deal if you do global entry for $100. You'll get pre-check for free and it helps with international travel (entry back into the US).
