yessssirr best in the gameee

[@ashashwaganda]

Love how Elliot is so supportive 🫶🏼

[@ShanRizwan]

i was smiling throughout this whole vid, nice job colt...next up for sure

[@ColtKirwan]

You’re gonna make me cry🥹

[@MicahCate]

My mouth dropped open when you said you do a 2 hour commute for Kelly This was so well done though, loved watching your behind the scenes!

[@RubyD_321]

MICAH!! 😂 love the both of you! 💗

[@AJ-qn9ji]

Colt is definitely that one friend who would hold the camera and capture everyone's precious memories (although it is his job) and we're all thankful for. definitely glad that he still gets to shoot his best moments.

[@FadiFlashiShorts]

OMG how is it possible to have so many talented young film makers?! Big props to you! That was like TOP NOTCH video and I ALWAYS wondered who the hell is filming and why they're (the behind the camera person) is never mentioned in any of his videos! >.< Wishing you the best of luck! That was just such a beautiful video! Subbed for sure!

[@Pastry.Boy.Tim_]

Dude! This is such an eye-opening video. It's really interesting seeing the other perspective from the filmer and whats involved in being Kelly's filmer. Also, can we appreciate that Colt doesn't use a gimbal?? Those are some crispy clean shots 👌👌👌

[@ColtKirwan]

They call me “Steadyshot” in the streets

[@Pastry.Boy.Tim_]

@@ColtKirwan Teach me your ways SteadyShot

[@JeffreyBui]

The work ethic and talent is amazing keep it up colt!

[@rinowen]

Ahhh this is so cool, mannn. I love how your style shows through in this even when the concept surrounds filming Kelly. Seeing this on your ig story, I wasn't sure how you were gonna do it, but fr fr- well done!

[@ColtKirwan]

I appreciate that! Thanks a lot 🙌

[@simongamez]

Sometimes we give all the credit to the person in front of the camera and we forget that a lot of the time, there's people behind the camera who make the great content we see actually possible!

[@jacintagana]

I cant believe you jumped into that freezing water just to get the shot. When i watched that video i was shoked that kelly and elliot jumped, but the fact that you did too and weren’t even in the video really suprises me and makes me take another prespective, i guess you never think about the guy behind the camera but it’s so cool seeing this video and realizing all the work you put into it ❤️ loved the video

[@fitegyy]

Filmers like yourself are mad underrated & deserve a lot more love, can’t wait to see where this journey takes you 🥂

[@DarioKesegiG0CA]

This video is great, we all new that there was serious talent behind camera But I never knew you were this good editor and story teller! keep it up you got a new fan 😁

[@ColtKirwan]

:,)

[@jobra9859]

Let’s go Colt! You are truly living your dream everyday! Cannot wait for more content from you and to see how much you grow!

[@ColtKirwan]

Thanks brotha

[@BigScalyBird]

This is so well done and engaging. Really shows how much planning and work goes into a seemingly spontaneous video. Thanks for sharing this peek into your work, Colt!

[@LukeEich1]

Lesssssss goooooo!!!

[@akachiaiden]

this guys work ethic and kind soul is so cool. you can tell he’s really humbled and he has great attitude. gonna be big one day for sure.

[@ThePasindu]

Let's go! You are a pro and quite obvious with all the great shots you take for Kelly. Glad to see you living the dream and enjoying your job. Hope more vlogs will come soon too.

[@ColtKirwan]

Stay tuned!

[@simplyzhouye7534]

That's why the cameraguy is the most underrated, cos while the person on camera is doing adventures and thrills, the cameraguy is doing the exact same and even additional harder costhey have to do it while filming and holding camera gear which is much more impressive! so much props to all these unsung heroes behind the scenes making the heroes on screen look good.

[@Rho216]

Can clearly see Colt is one of the few rare hard working humble and good natured people that are genuinely happy and excited for life and all its experience rather than praying or just wishing about something they don't have control over. Kudos to you my man. Keep up the work.

[@ColtKirwan]

Is someone cutting onions up in here?!?!

[@vvvitali2555]

Man you dont know how hyped I am seeing this video. Im trying to get into filmmaking and photography myself and have been fascinated by your videos for a while now. Definitely gonna learn alot from you!

[@ColtKirwan]

KZbins the best place to learn!

[@pentaholiccookie7321]

The work you do running around them to get shots from so many different perspectives is absolutely incredible and it shows in the cinematography of the videos!

[@nataliatothemoon]

when a colt video pops in on ur feed, you gotta tap in look at you now colt, living in nyc making ur own videos, taking the content closet to creator glory, filming like a boss, world building like a champ so proud of you man :') so so fucking proud

[@DutchyDutchess89]

Smiled throughout this entire video. Your presence is so calming and sweet and you’re so talented!

[@idksalmontempura1109]

the way you film is not only cinematic but it creates so much feeling from the camera movement to the angles you choose! honestly to create like you do is my dream.

[@ColtKirwan]

Follow your dreams!

[@LifeOfQuezzy]

DUDE YOU’RE SUCH AN AMAZING FILMER! I WATCH KELLY’S VIDEOS ALL THE TIME AND THE FACT THAT YOURE CHASING YOUR DREAM MAKES ME DO THE SAME! IM LITERALLY STARTING TO FILM VIDEOS LIKE KELLY AND THE STYLE FOR HIS VIDEOS! I WANNA BE A STORYTELLING LIFESTYLE CREATOR AND YOU OPENED MY EYES

[@No1rocky]

[@winitommo]

[@dohaatheexplorer]

I’m literally watching this video for like third time!!!!!

[@marwatazi7238]

colt seems like such a genuine person awww

[@kodakkevin]

The real talent Colt has is filming 2 videos AT THE SAME TIME. Imagine pulling double duty and trying to tell two stories simultaneously, I appreciate the effort dude

[@anagabriela4959]

THE LEGEND HIMSELF! it was so nice to see all the work you gotta do and the effort you put on everything. you're such a professional, respect!

[@nishandavid8942]

Never been this invested in a KZbinr’s success before. Dude is winsome as hell, go get it

[@SammiSunny]

When the lyrics “that’s life” faded in, it brought the biggest melancholy smile on my face. You have a new fan 💜

[@elgielazaga]

You are such an inspiration. The BTS of Kelly Wakasa's ravishing videos. Appreciate you man!

[@ellieshooo454]

OMG SEEING COLT’S PERSPECTIVE AND HOW HE FILMS IS JUST AN AMAZING THING TO SEE YAY

[@ColtKirwan]

[@mbali.mzunga]

[@theuncutcritic8162]

Just discovered this channel now and I love it- camerawork and cinematography is really mellow and calming- suits your style and personality! Keep going, brother

[@pavitraarora1065]

the filming, the editing the clean explanation of the process, gahdamn chef's kiss fr🤌

[@nickinthecutt]

i always wondered why he never said who his camera man was! i commented ab it awhile back, but this is awesome to see i loved this vid!

[@ramya4954]

The hardwork Colt puts in his work ,is srsly so inspiring ❣️

[@ZachShurtz]

Dude, I've been dying to find out more about the guy behind the camera, major props for all your work and subbed for sure! Super impressive work both on Kelly's channel and your own!

[@odalismota5811]

Yo I don’t usually subscribe to channels very often but I’ve always thought about how underrated you are as Kelly’s film maker. Glad you made this video for yourself, can’t wait to see what else you have in store for us as viewers. Stay grounded, stay humble, it’s what gravitated me towards your vid 🙏🏽

[@ArvindRajan]

this was EPIC colt!! You're a brilliant storyteller, love your positive energy, and super excited to see your own youtube career flourish too!

[@ShaneDanahy]

Much love for making this video! I’m personally a full time freelance video/photographer in CT! Knowing how close I am to you guys and seeing this spectrum of BTS is so cool. Knowing we use the same gear literally down to the wire makes it that much cooler to resonate with. You’re the man. Keep crushing it dude!

[@TheWorldAccordingToV]

i didn't think about filming the skateboard shots and how you'd have to be super good at skating too hahahah all of your work for kelly is amazing!

[@Astrohhh]

Kelly is so lucky to have you!! It's pretty evident watching this that filming is your absolute passion, seeing as how much you're willing to sacrifice. I hope this opens up so many more doors for you!

[@bygraciana]

damn bro. your dedication is awesome and extremely admirable. their “do what excites” is your “do it for the shot.” it makes me wanna do what you do. just found your page through this video and i’m about to watch all of your others. keep it up! you’re awesome

[@pulsar6538]

Respectfully crushing on you, Colt. Nothing more charming than a person who knows and does what he likes and puts his heart into it. Keep it up!

[@yeobo]

DUDE. I loved this so much…so unexpected but i’m so happy we finally know more about you and your story, looking out for more about the guy behind the camera and his dreams :)

[@leilei1517]

[@DavidArmah.]

Sick man! It’s really cool seeing a fellow New Paltz alum follow their creative dreams! This really put a smile on my face, keep killing it dude!

[@SaffronIce]

Seeing the perspective behind the lens like this is definitely eye opening! Keep doing what you're doing, you've got this :D

[@anushkadapurkar96]

Colt u're one of the most hardworking people out there, and believe in u, one day it'll all payoff!!!

[@fabiannotsebastian2796]

Pretty crazy but I find myself in a similar situation as you Colt, I found my passion of videography going into college and am looking to switch majors into film. I have a few youtube videos and although Im not sure exactly what area of video or film I want to be in, watching your videos and how you have experimented and stayed posting thru the years is really inspiring.

[@ColtKirwan]

My only regret is not posting more!

[@patricks5997]

This video was pure entertainment and of the highest quality in all aspects of filmmaking! You're awesome!

[@melihong]

honestly so impressed with your discipline and how youre pursuing your dreams, can't wait to see more content and more of ya in the others; vids!

[@edwardlin]

The most underrated guy out there! Love your shots man!

[@Jimmynick]

SUCH A FIRE VIDEO THE EDITING WAS AMAZING! I aspire to be a videographer like you someday! Keep up the grind🙌🏼💯💯

[@ColtKirwan]

Keep grinding💪

[@dexture1]

This is cool to see behind the curtain. I think Kelly is one of the few KZbinrs that takes you behind the process of what it takes to make content. It is nice to see that he is willing to help you while you help him.

[@ChristinaYoh]

this is SO COOL. you’re a phenomenal storyteller!! here before you blow up, mark my words 🤞🏼

[@ColtKirwan]

🥹

[@princessefeohi]

That was interesting to watch! I've seen glimpse of u in Kelly's videos did not know you had your own channel. You're doing the lord's work Colt. 👏

[@DavidMota]

the Ny grind is real!

[@reginemhar5596]

Broooo this made me smile! it's nice to see another perspective on the things you guys do! keep it up man...this vid is amazing!!

[@RageElixir]

I gotta get that camera clip now

[@ColtKirwan]

I recommend the PGYTech Beetle Clip

[@RageElixir]

@@ColtKirwan thank you! almost bought the other one today but it wasn’t in stock yet

[@geminiyouhate444]

the way u shoot his vids is amazing and pleasing to my eyes, its lowkey perfectt!

[@CasandraContora]

would be nice to let you be a part of your mom's house since your putting so much effort into their content!

[@ThejustJeff]

It's so nice seeing your own perspective on things and not just the finished video. And the delivery 👌can't wait to see you do more things.

[@MontellReacts]

Great video bro, I’m a fan of Kelly because of you and how you film his video, to create story and excitement that engages all of us. Quick question? How did you start filming with Kelly. (Backstory)

[@ColtKirwan]

Thanks bro and the beginning of the video kinda goes over that. Filmed for some KZbinrs and shot Kelly a dm. Definitely a bit of luck and the consistency of showing up!

[@bamboo2424242424]

you are so talented and its always so nice to see the process of filming because its what we don't get to see and sometimes don't appreciate the effort it took to film enough, so glad to see people doing what they love! sending support!

[@ysaxperiau]

This video is phenomenal one of the best KZbin videos I’ve watched in a long time

[@ColtKirwan]

:,)

[@danielpardo2409]

Just found this, as I was wanting Kelly to do a video introducing you as his Filmer. I'm glad I found this and I'm happy to know you're doing well and pursuing your passion, it's really inspiring as I myself am in a head space where I'm not quite sure what I want to do with my life, but seeing how you're just whole heartedly pursuing your passion and then the opportunities in that field have started appearing in your life is really eye opening, but also credit to you for sticking with it, even when the results were not coming. Just wanted to say thank you, and wish you all the best in your career moving forward. Keep grinding bro!

[@ColtKirwan]

Keep grinding as well bro💪 you become more of what you put out in the world!

[@mariaxpbj]

For so embarrassingly long, I was trying to find who was behind the camera and I'm so glad your video popped up! Love the video, I love to hear how passionate you are and showing us behind the scenes of your amazing work!

[@lenziwomack]

Ah truly you're so awesome! Just your heart behind everything you do is so huge! Keep doing your thing and big things are about to happen - you are beyond skilled, an unbelievable storyteller that is constantly thinking of everything, & such a genuine good person! You bring such a calming, "steady", motivating, grateful and joy-filled presence that effects any viewer or person around you!

[@SeanORiordan-md7pk]

Discovered your channel through kelly! Your daily vlog series was so good and it would be really cool if you could upload a video or two a month about life as a filmer in nyc etc. Keep up the good work man!

[@joshomaa9697]

i love watching your videos like wtf theyre so much fun. i like studying your videography its so interesting and engaging

[@VanessaNagoya]
