I went to a film school, and our fist assignment was a mise en' scen, which involves no audio or cuts (Its also one full scene), so you can make a audience understand the film visually. You defenitely can, but it is hard to go without cuts, because everything needs to go perfectly in a take, so you won't take so long to reset the shot.

[@NormalHuman1..1]

did you guys need a camera or iphone's cam. and what did you do for the audio issue,

[@joshturner7400]

Yo dude, love your videos! Please keep them coming 🙏🏻 I was actually an extra on 1917. Can confirm that 8 minute long take took tonnes of attempts to get right haha. Funnily enough, a lot of the easier scenes of just the 2 mains walking through trenches actually took longer. One 4 minute scene took us about 3 full days to film (we’re on set for about 15-16 hours per day!). It could be something as simple as an extra facing the wrong direction when sitting down at the very end of the take, and the whole scene had to be reset. Plus, the weather kept changing so it became a continuity nightmare. We all had a blast though, plenty of memories on that set. And to see a master at work in Sam Mendes was surreal.

Did you never notice the great big light on a stand at the entrance of the house ..? It's in every shot. Seems you had a lot of fun though and training like this is always good to learn how real shoots operate. It's all about heavy planning, knowing your angles and focal lengths prepping the boom and light accordingly. Storyboarding if possible. Having a script is also key for any minute detail that goes wrong in complicated shots like this because the camera operator cannot physically deal with everything at once. But hey since this is about a couple of friends messing around I hope you had a great time !

[@SH4DOW0FFICI4L]

One thing you can do for a more impactful wall break is to throw white flour on the front side of the drywall so it is disguised by the white color of the wall and when the person smashes through, it generates this really nice dusty plume that looks sweet.

[@isaaccarlton]

Great advice! Thank you 🔥

[@chimee1237]

Ngl his KZbin strategy is kinda genius because you watch the video and then have to see another video too see the final movie so he gets double the amount of views.

[@mildlyconcerning]

yeah but it's more about watch time, not views. if he just added it to the end he could get the same amount of watch time and it wouldn't matter. i think it's more about the ctr which promotes his channel more.

[@aylabosley]

Isaac Carlton's KZbin series is a great resource for fans of his work. His KZbin strategy involves watching the video and then seeing another video to see the final movie, resulting in double the number of views. The author recommends trying to make a movie without edits, no extra sound, or cuts, and focusing on pure camera work. They enjoyed a non-talking short film they saw and enjoyed the videos. As an extra in 1917, they confirmed that an 8-minute take took multiple attempts to get right. Easy scenes took longer, with one 4-minute scene taking about 3 full days to film. The weather and changing weather conditions made continuity a challenge. The experience was enjoyable, and the opportunity to see a master at work in Sam Mendes was surreal. The author attended a film school and had their first assignment be a mise en'scen, which involves no audio or cuts and one full scene. However, it is hard to go without cuts, as everything needs to go perfectly in a take to reset the shot.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

I have the German film "Victoria" - a full length movie made in one take no cuts, no 'hidden' cuts. It was shot over a night with multiple locations. It took 3 attempts to actually get it right. Well recommended.

[@hexcodeff6624]

If the Piano scene was perfectly realized, that might have been one of the best German movies of all time.

[@JJBrosEntertainment]

I mean 1917 is one of my favorite films. there were I think 49 cuts in the whole movie. That's a bout a cut every five minutes. Which is crazy to me. Love that u decided to do this yourself. Your videos always feel so original and entertaining,

[@paputz72]

The german movie "Victoria" from 2015 is shot in one take, 2hours20min long? It's amazing!

[@UNSCPILOT]

I would have recommend the much thinner flexible drywall, imo, or koralite foam sheets, cheap and easier to break, though it probably wouldn't hold up in a close shot, but if you ever need a wall break at a distance it'd be hard to tell it's not drywall

[@bensonfitch6697]
