Building a SHIPPING CONTAINER studio with no experience. Ep.1

[@JesseDriftwood]

Hey! There is so much more I wanted to cover in this video that will be in the following episodes. Is there anything specific you'd want to know about our build/ process? Happy to answer anything! PS. THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL OR BUILDING ADVICE DO NOT COPY US WE ARE MONKEYS WITH POWER TOOLS.

[@virenp1983]

I want to know all about pros and cons of having a warehouse as an office/ studio for a creator. ik the EXTRA space will help with lighting but how'd you manage echo and stuff in such a biggg space and make that warehouse more homely over time

[@QuintonTetik]

what are you guys doing for heating and cooling? and bathrooms?

[@GuzmanGonzalez]

I think it'd be really interesting to see the choices you made for materials, sound proofing for editing, layouts you guys chose for desktops and whatnot. I always figured how much would it cost to build a container office and how the layout for a video editor workspace will work in one of those. Loved this vid and i'm definitely subscribing to see more of this!

[@GKVideography]

Loving this, look forward to more. My question would be, If this is a temporary solution, what is the final goal and why are you waiting to do that and not just go there now?

[@BeckiandChris]

This was so great! Can’t wait for all the juicy details! Shipping containers look challenging to work with!

[@lilafromyoutube]

That intro energy SLAPS! Love the storytelling and the idea of using shipping containers! P.s. glad you didn’t burn your face

[@Levi_Allen]

YES! Shipping containers for the win. I loved this video.

[@Levi_Allen]

“Say that again for sound” joke was amazing

[@JesseDriftwood]

hahaha that’s also my favourite joke in the whole video

09:48 "I did it!" was the best reaction ever lol. You guys are brave for taking this on!

[@GRUBB-MUDD]

Saw the thumbnail and had to click.. very good stuff. Thanks for teaching all this stuff and just showing these things. It opens up ppls creativity 👌 thanks

[@dslrvideoshooter]

Can’t wait for more!

[@ZackDowdy]

Killing it, I think as creatives doing things with no experience typical brings more satisfaction.

[@SamNewton]

Hahahaha straight up died at “I’ve used a drill”

[@chriscamlog]

Idk why but this video really pumped me up in the sleepy morning, thanks for the energy!

[@patricksills9378]

Stoked for you guys and jealous of the project! My family built our nordic ski shop and snow cat garage out of C-cans. Make sure you consider if you are creating rat/rodent highways, hollows they can get into that you cant get them out of. Look forward to more!

[@patricksills9378]

Also those synthetic jackets around grinders is gonna get real expensive!

[@This-Is-Austin]

Awww man Video started strong and ended weak leaving me wanting more. Looking forward for to the next one.

[@jonstamm]

Slo-mo sparks 🤩 Lookin' great, guys!

[@willfreund3315]

Between y'alls build as well as Becki and Chris in their home reno, I am feeling a serious itch to build something.

[@blessingplant]

Favorite youtuber☺️ And I don’t like choosing favorites. Thanks as always for sharing your pursuits. Those sparks were quite beautiful✨

[@virenp1983]

This series is going to be one of the best vids by Jesse on yt!!!!

[@Ournotsoperfectlife]

This video was magic!! Great music selections as well!!!

[@loloshaf44]

Such a good watch! This is the first I'm seeing your channel, this was in my recommended today. Excited to watch as the studio develops!! Definitely subscribing!

[@MicroFourNerds]

This is the mirror universe, chaotic version of Becki and Chris’ Reno series and I love both equally

[@GRUBB-MUDD]

I just want u to know, u and a couple other people inspired me to tell a story as I do these construction jobs, and not to just make the same kind of videos every1 else makes in this niche. When I make 1 it would be cool to share it w u and them, yur video was amazing. I've been doing this all for free for about a year and found a passion and a want to make better videos everytime. I didn't know to edit to music when I use it or anything, I was editing w a tablet at 1080p 30fps , not really even using to much b roll or cuts and transitions slow motion or any of that stuff the right way, but I just got a nice camera and I can't wait to just make some things better!

[@AlliandWill]

This edit was reallllly good, you guys are killing it! Such an ambitious project to bring to life!

[@TheBeginnerPhotographyPodcast]

This is the dream. Thank you all for sharing this project! We need a video on a rudimentary cost break down. That would be amazing.

[@brianmckeever5280]

Dude, should have asked for volunteers! What, Peter M. too busy? ;-) This was fun to watch. I love the way you put things together, the video and the space, genius idea. Looks like you all should be very proud of yourselves. You got a big bucket of lemons and made some very creative lemonade!

[@makethemost]

Super excellent on so many levels. From the cinematography to the storytelling a thoroughly enjoyable video. Thanks for sharing your ongoing saga.

[@marisayuechuenmusing]

Sooo pumped to keep watching these videos! I love seeing the process of the space coming together. Also I like your red panda shirt.

[@chrisclark5135]

This was great man! Excited to see the finished product!

[@ReubenLiu13]

When one door closes, you just need to build another. Super excited to see how this space will turn out.

[@UncleJessy]

This is such a wildly amazing project. Really can’t wait to follow this

[@TedAldwin]

As an architect and youtuber, I love this idea of putting shipping containers inside a huge space for creative studios/offices. My only concern with these shipping containers is its history. Nowadays, there’s a ton of shipping container-related designs out there due to its modularity but one major factor to be considered is the history of its usage. Since these are used for shipping various products in its lifetime, some are used to transport chemicals that may be harmful to humans that may linger for months or years when in contact with metal. I hope you guys took this into consideration before the purchase and I that you did, other than that, I’m so stoked to see the final results of your new studios man! Keep it rocking!😎🤘🏼

[@JesseDriftwood]

Thanks for the concern and yeah we were at least told these ones were clean.

[@TedAldwin]

Awesome! Glad to hear that Jesse. I’m so excited to see an empire rise within these metal containers soon! Mr Benfey might fly a drone through these one day! 😁👌

[@PINZCONTAINER]

If you guys buy the containers from a serious company it is ok. The containers that travelled with chemicals not even suposed to go to selling!

[@parkereastmond2606]

This was... without a doubt the best video I've ever witnessed. Honestly just throw every bit of footage you have onto a timeline... export it out... and send me the link.

[@rubiotv]

This video SLAPS!! You guys got this! It is very inspiring.

[@thisisdash]

the filmmaking that jesse incripts is just amazing .he always gets me hooked to anything he doin

[@WakeUpMatt]

This is incredible! So stoked to see the rest. I literally just started to build my own container office too 😄

[@AtomicPixel]

Can’t wait to come check it out when things are complete. Keep up the solid work, my man!

[@DommoDommo]

I hit the bell so could see part 2 right away!! I'm excited to see how this turns out!

[@The_Daliban]

Well done guys. And such a nice video❤️ Keep it up and always go forward. Never backwards!

[@Kim-bm7ws]

Love it. Great job all! Can't wait to see Part 2. And Mom says thanks.

[@focusmedia2465]

Wow wow wow! Just realized how much I enjoy not only BTS videos, but people building stuff with very little knowledge on how to do it. Makes me feel empowered to take on monumental challenges. Thanks Jesse!

[@Marcmphoto]

I seriously love your videos everytime. It always inspires me to just take my camera and make a video. I always enjoy your content sir, keep it Goin 🙏🙏🙌🙌

[@dag221]

Best video since the one of Florence delivering pizza. This is like an adventure and sure it's probably stressful but think of all the great content you will get out of it. Also good to see safety regulations followed so strictly. The piece of steel nearly falling on Christophe was interesting.

[@TimKstnr]

Great video, please keep up the documentation process. And good look with the whole project :)

Should be fine, You'll notice this type of work is easy to understand.....it is just simply physically heavy. But you'll be fine and a lot less girlie when you're done! Super editing - love it.

Haha yup you’re absolutely right (except about the girly part lol). We’re so much further along now and I’ve absolutely loved the process and am excited to take on more projects like this in the future.

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

Hello @@JesseDriftwood , It will be interesting to see how this construction "art" influences your creativity going forward. ...and fun too...seeing how you make life fun. Stay warm, spring is coming (Oh and try one of our Bullitt cargo bikes....since you now like all those electric tools...you can try the eBullitt. Charity bike rides start next month!)

[@JesseDriftwood]

@@Dancing_Alone_wRentals I actually almost bought a bullit cargo bike years ago! Sadly we just don’t have a place at home to fit one that doesn’t involve carrying it up and downstais every time we want to use it.

The tape measurer falling off the side gave me horrible flashbacks to literally every single time I use one lol. I cannot wait to see how this progresses! Good on you for turning a negative into a new exciting challenge.

[@JesseDriftwood]

I honestly couldn’t count the amount of times that happened to me on this process. Probably five times in that clip alone aha!

[@aramatkinson]

@@JesseDriftwood 😂😂 I can only imagine. Treat yourself to a laser measurer (says the man with two broken tape measurers and no laser measurer)

Great idea with shipping containers, it's going to make a very creative workspace I'm sure, new beginnings for the win.

[@JayLippman]

Amazing video dude! The only thing I was wondering the entire time (because this was my world for 15 years) is how are you doing the electrical for the shipping containers?

[@JesseDriftwood]

That’ll be in the next video! We have functional power on them now but still waiting for the electrician to put us each on 15a breakers.

It really was a monster-of-an-edit!! You moved, you built, you filmed and you made a video about it 🤯 How many hours do you think you spent on the edit? Such a phenomenal video and project.

[@kannsichsehenlassen]

I think it would be really interesting to hear how you decide what to film, how much and how you save and structure the files when filming a project like this! Do you plan the shots in advance? Do you just leave the cameras running like 24/7 etc.
