RAW Behind the Scenes on Set as a Cinematographer

[@luker1ng]

As a DP, I love hearing the conversations between you and the gaffer / grips. Very helpful!! And insightful!

[@carlostigs]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@omidpakbin]

What I notice the most in your videos is that you seem to be an awesome and chill human, and the funny thing is, both of the gaffers you worked with in this video also give off a similar vibe. A real dream team for any client. Of course the fact that your talent is 10/10 level and you deliver top quality results help too. lol

[@carlostigs]

I appreciate that!

[@Christopher-vt6zt]

Thank you for these video's man, you seem chill af to work with.

[@carlostigs]

Haha thanks!

[@kevinaquino2080]

10:30 are you saying that the Gaffer dude is called JEAN CARLOS and you are GIAN CARLO. Like, that's crazy level of coincidence dude hahahah

[@Michi.108]

it is so nice on a set, everybody is helping each other.

[@carlostigs]

Indeed!

[@musadenes5957]

Thank you, Gian. You have inspired me a lot. Keep winning brother

[@carlostigs]

Thanks! Will do!

[@verebellus]

This gives me great insight, props to everyone in the video for just being relaxed and chill, nice communication and great vibes

[@carlostigs]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@beauchampy]

[@robertpurkarthofer4744]

Jason, great to see you also in front of the camera!

[@justinwilliams2919]

Love these bts’-Thanks for making them! Great to also hear from Gaffers like Jean Carlos & Jason Penza. Awesome insights & communication between you all. Question: I loved the unique red light flair you have at 6:52 . How did you achieve that?

[@carlostigs]

Those are the lens! Canon Rangefinders. But we had a light near the lens so it would flare up

[@gabrielaaronmoser-diary]

Thanks for the behind the scenes look! It's super cool to see how you create such a calm vibe on set. I also love the lensing-would you mind sharing which lenses and filters you used?

[@VLK2024]

I think he used some vintage Rehousings from GL optics.

[@carlostigs]

For Bronx I used Tokinda Vista Prime with 1/4 BS For LA I used Canon Rangefinders

[@gabrielaaronmoser-diary]

@@carlostigs Thanks, appreciate it! :)

[@filmsvanmichiel]

Love this stuff!

[@carlostigs]

Thanks!

[@zbojko2720]

Love the content - been a fan for some time. I think you should tweak the settings on your mic though, the audio seems to be distorted in recent videos.

[@carlostigs]

Noted!

[@kevinaquino2080]

Loved the video btw, It's lovely to see these work enviroment as just see DP's in action, so pls bring more BTS dude!

[@carlostigs]

[@shinyshirt]

Broski I almost felt like I was watching a video of some of my personal interactions😂 loved the way when you guys ran into problems and legitimately only talked about solutions and possibilities. I know sometimes is can go the opposite way and it was fun to see these interactions. Thanks for sharing big man

[@shinyshirt]

Again, would love to work with you sometime. Hopefully we run into each other one of these days haha!

[@carlostigs]

Thanks for the comment! We always strive for solving provlems

[@FilaSelam]

Thank you so mach

[@benoneilldp]

Looked like a beautiful 2 shoot days! Sick BTS

[@carlostigs]

Thanks!

[@stuartswindellcampoy8483]

I was gonna say how you said you didn't want flare through out the interview and then I thought you should just add the flare for the portrait or intro of the interview while the camera is swinging on a slider that would be a nice intro and then switch it off. But then I saw you did it for the second interview in the house so nevermind haha godo job Bro well done

[@carlostigs]

Hahaha yes!

[@kera.habayeho]

i did that framing you did at 3:45 it's dope. and the whole set up dope

[@carlostigs]

Thank ya!

[@arielkarluforonda2985]

[@colemowery]

Hey there! what tripod do you own for your venice? Do you own the oconner, or do you have something smaller, and then rent something larger when you're on jobs that need one?

[@carlostigs]

I own a sachtler 20p but try to rent a better one whenever I am able

[@colemowery]

@@carlostigs Thanks! I've got an F55, and currently borrow/rent something when I need it, but wanted to pick something up that could support it and wouldn't break the bank.

[@justinvazquezfilms]

Jason’s a legend

[@carlostigs]

Indeed

[@ComunityShots]

I have now worked with 2 gaffers you worked with (Nate and Jason) and I feel like I gotta be next in rotation 😭😭

[@carlostigs]

Haha maybe!

[@Alexmcasteel]

What glass was used in the LA portion

[@carlostigs]

Canon Ranfefinders

[@welchworks]

Thanks for the premium BTS content! ✨👀

[@carlostigs]

[@carlostigs]

[@pedrosolano6844]

whats the job of that guy you talk 1:41 ?

[@afseale]

I liked the video…….but slow down the crew credits at the end. Drag it out, you got all the time in the world with all that BTS.
