[@pondbimtravel7661]

I love all of it and would put all your techniques into my next video. You are my inspiration for cinematic film. Thanks for sharing.

[@NhoyskieIbanez]

I like the swipe to zoom, but in the second frame instead the model it will be me who will be revealed. (change character) 😆😆

[@marvinparrenoquinto231]

Me Steve ✋🏼😁! I always replicate your ideas everytime you uploaded a new video. I hope you don't mind 🤣😊😂

ALL OF IT! ❤️ Anyone agree? 🙋

[@hahatravelvlog6582]

This is what it called “giving doesn’t make you poor”…. Thanks for being so generous for people who want to learn video making but don’t need money to take expensive lessons…. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@mhamadlon64]

100%%%%%% Thank youuu soo muchhhhh More you give..more you’ll earn

[@mahmudhafiz9867]

This true .

How about it's about for those who don't have money rather than don't need money.

[@ranjeetreyyan]

Right 👍

[@Safestill]

Fantastic teaching and creativity. Probably half a semester's worth of film school condensed into 9 crisp, concise and clear minutes. Much obliged sir!

[@erikduncanstrategy]

Extremely helpful and well-produced; the combination of instruction, before and after shots is very educational. Thank you for sharing these techniques.

[@canalshh]

Good transitions are better with a careful sound design. Don't forget about sound effects. The perfect match! 🎥🔊

[@alexandrasantos6690]

Where can i find those sounds?? And thank you very much for the tips!!!! Also i have a question, i start recently on my job, and my boss thinks i take to much time, filmming, and editing, is for houses, more or less i take 4-5hours to do eveything, how long did you take do to this video? just for the filmming and editing (with effects and color grading) more or less, how much time? Have a nice day, and greetings from Portugal

[@canalshh]

@@alexandrasantos6690 Olá, Alexandra! Então podemos falar em português. Alguns programas de edição oferecem uma biblioteca de efeitos sonoros, mas podem ser limitadas, então há várias outras fontes (como canais no KZbin) que disponibilizam uma variedade maior de sons. O meu canal é um deles. Atualizo com bastante frequência e atendo, sempre que possível, aos pedidos e sugestões dos inscritos. Espero ter conseguido responder e ajudar. Abraço!

[@adtnews5703]

You are by far the greatest tutorial guy I’ve ever watched. You are easy to understand for beginners while giving professional and complex ideas. Thank you for the awesome content!

[@sabrinamariamusic]

Thank you for your generosity in showing us how to do this free of charge. So tired of click bait videos where people give you a snippet so you’ll be tempted to buy their course! That type of marketing has the opposite effect on me. I would happily take one of your courses (if I had the money) because of your generosity in this video! A very grateful new subscriber!

[@akinyodesolajoe4802]

This is the Answer to My LONG AWAITED PRAYERS, Thanks and God bless,SJ from Nigeria 🇳🇬

[@theravenousrussos5278]

The dropping below the stair transition is brilliant. Love this. Thanks

[@NhoyskieIbanez]

Wow just on the intro, i'm already excited and amazed.. Thanks Steve, always always awesome and amazing.

[@barzantahir4241]

I love all the techniques you use for making professional videos. However, I am not majored in videography but your tutorials are just marvelous which meets everyone at the time of filming.

[@CamboLifeAdventures]

Such an epic video! So many amazing transition tips. I can’t wait to get out there and try them. My favorite is the through the floor transition but closely followed with the green screen on the lens

[@jaybird3726]

your a freaking wizard with a camera and some editing software. thanks for all the info man.

[@wadgking727]

You’re the most smartest person I know on KZbin about the videography thanks 🙏🏿

[@ManuelFranco-wl3hm]

[@davidcochrane3048]

Great tips from you Steve, consistently! Inspiring stuff and love the way you deliver these tutorials in classic fashion 1. tell us how to do it 2. show us how to do it, then 3 get us to do it. Love getting on to step 3 and trying out all these highly creative concepts.

[@johnsonfranklin3971]

That’s a very nice video

[@supermarkgeder4452]

Extremely helpful. I'm starting my own travel vlog and these video tutorials is top notch! Thank you! I'll definitely use these transitions

[@F0RLORN]

The last doesn't look very good but every other one is amazing! Thank you for making this video.

[@magiccuratorstudios902]

Would love to see a more detailed breakdown of the wall orbit. I tried this one and it came out a bit jerky even after post stabilization. Would love to see what the proper camera settings are

[@behzadshintos3715]

Definitely mind blowing and breathe taking works. 👏👏👏💙💙💙💙

[@erikduncan8790]

Extremely helpful and well presented! Thank you for crafting this tutorial and sharing your insights.

[@thunderstar143]

The wall orbit is superb transition..

[@pierreg8562]

nice one thanks, do you shoot in 16:9 format and then in the edit change to a more cinematic (21:9 or so?)?

[@goolygooly11]

Yeah

[@cameronboydkirrane9115]

Great video Steve, absolutely awesome. I have learnt so much from you in the last couple of months, and I will definitely be using these transitions in the future, especially in our next music video featuring my wife and I love them all. Thank you, keep on doing what you doing.

[@dans.channel.]

This is fantastic. So many great but simple idea’s. I’ve seen some of these in other video’s/movies and never even thought of how they are made.

[@StrideX21]

This was amazing. Thank you!

[@WardCo]

Except for the vortex, I don't see why a gimbal is required since the internal phone stabilization is now so good. Maybe add a short handle to the phone to make holding it easier, but other than that...

[@AstralTash]

I was looking for this comment haha exactly

[@prakashsalian3798]

Since you guys are so confident, why don't you try shooting with a gimbal vs an advanced phone. I tried and still found the 3 axis gimble videos to be more stable & used a Iphone 12 pro vs a Digitech 005 gimbal.

[@AstralTash]

@@prakashsalian3798 wasn’t against the idea of the performance of a gimbal. I’m just on a budget and have to make my tripod work for now haha

[@farazkhan-9]

Teaching a hard work free of cost man your heart is really a big one

[@DrMaterial1]

So glad to have watched your tutorial of some basic and fun shots to practice. I just bought a gimbal (Smooth5) and want to start shooting and producing some fun stuff. Thank you for sharing!

[@kayvanmirabel4046]

Great tutorial, simple and easy to follow. Output is awesome! Thank you.

[@chefvonsean4057]

This was a superb tutorial. Your videos are ideal when it comes to breaking everything down. You’ve done an amazing job

[@LakbayKomyuter]

I've tried some of the techniques and I'm still learning. Thank you for your video, it gives me ideas and create my own channel.

[@steveh9089]

So cool, and yet so simple, he who has yet to try them lol. Love the way you don’t use any expensive things and even say where to cut the shot. Loved the bid of you filming the old red car on the hill top. Thanks steve for the vids

[@NinjaGamong]

I would just like to add. As a film maker myself these are ways to really enhance your story. One thing I find myself making a mistake in is that it is easy to lose continuity. I quickly learned of this and adjusted my planning and sight seeing a lot better to avoid this. For example, at time frame 2:38 you can see that the subject is walking left to right on a flat plane with orange background. Then when he did the transition, you see the subject walking up a ramp coming from the bottom floor which was purple. The continuity was broken but the transition was smooth. This video was shared with me as a refresher and I will say that this is an amazing lesson and I needed up sharing it with my production team.

[@eeeeeeehhhhhhssssspp]

I really like these transitions! Thank you for the video :)

[@easypeasyabcsy7883]

Perfectly shot and explained. Thank you!

[@skuzmenkov]

the wall orbit - NICE!
