Using Powerful Camera Angles and Shots for Filmmaking

[@deangeloscott]

Single creepiest work encounter I've ever witnessed. Well Done!

[@RELLISHPICTURES]

Right!? 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

[@CZsWorld]

Submit boss man to festivals.

[@NfuyenPham]

Who loves it when he said "FOOL!!!" ?

[@TurboBeads]

yes most defiantly! its great!

[@irishpancake7708]

Been watching your channel for a year now and I've learned so much, keep up the good work!

[@D4Darious]

Thank you Irish ;)

[@30parkwood15]

I have been using most of your tutorials for my church instructions in media. You literally taught me most of what I know.And I still watch these videos as refreshers

[@JermaineGrant]

Good vid, Very informative. I feel more people should talk about the meaning of shots and why they choose to place the camera at certain angles and how it moves story forward. Maybe you could do that for your feature or future projects.

[@D4Darious]

Good suggestion Jermaine. Thanks for commenting.

[@filipsperl]

I really like the last few things you said about being able to turn all these rules on their head and create something awesome. That's why I love this.

[@BrajKishoredas]

i remembered when i started learning filmmaking 2years back.. i followed you.. and today i shared your video with one of my student... thats my way of paying you back... love from India

[@Mu3azOsman]

dooooope! this was so so useful, even though I've learned it before :'D

[@FilmmakingSock]

ikr

[@salehalhabbab8884]

Muaz Osman ليش برنامج داقي الجرس صار كل اسبوعين. اطالب معاذ عثمان بل مزيد😂

[@Mu3azOsman]

SHARK كل اسبوع والله انت مامتابع كويس حتى الاسبوع الفات طلعت حلقتين

[@SatonProduction]

always good to see and hear it again isn't it?!

[@TheDorkyDorcas97]

this kinda did inspire me to actually try and just film some stuff with the camera I have. I don't think I'd be able to study a film book or anything but i'll try to do what I can by watching your videos. You're freaking funny and so well keeping me interested with the way you talk to your viewers. I was wondering if there is a technique or techniques that you use that you could maybe share with us i don't know lol

[@D4Darious]

Thank you for commenting DD. I think my camera techniques mostly come from just doing it for three years constantly. You learn a lot about what works and what doesn't. Maybe I'll do a video on it sometime.

[@Daniel152315]

Nice use of Pink Floyd: The Wall, a very interesting film.

[@D4Darious]

You actually knew what film it was. Nice ;)

[@experi-mentalproductions5358]

I love that film...

[@fttoniato]

Man, I'm a Brazilian filmmaker living in Equatorial Guinea. I've shooting some stuff already and your videos are helping me sooooooo MUCH! (can't stress this enough). Keep up the good job.Cheers for E.G. mateFelipe

[@akamucrimsidae]

I love finding random channels on KZbin with so much to offer. Good stuff!

[@BriceHoward7001]

That guy picking his nose was a nice abstract touch. It fit because it added to the awkwardness of any already awkward scene. I even think it could have benefited from an extreme close up. #Greatjob

[@indiprotools]

Very helpful and I really liked how you broke down the type of shots used in your short scene to explain how those angles can be used to tell a story. Fantastic work yet again!

[@benarnoux]

Well, knowing the correct terminology does help a lot. I've learned so much from you!! I plan to implement what I've learned as soon as possible. You rock!!

[@blazea.h3564]

Yoooo! Thank you for your videos! You are the "people's film teacher".. You make learning about filmmaking entertaining and easy to grasp. Really appreciate you paying it forward!

[@ScottWinterbourne]

I love the description/example of perspective with different camera distance vs. lens focal length. I genuinely had an Ah Ha moment.

[@AllThingsFilm1]

Great video. I loved the pan shot where the camera pans to the right, following the opening of the door and revealing the man behind the door. It turned a simple pan into an effective revealing shot. Funny, skit, too.

[@TheReal-HopeBoykinDance]

This has got to be one of the best videos I've watched and from which I've been able to learn.

[@littlerichard1907]

Outstanding! Love your videos, keep 'em comin. I'm a father putting his children (and wife) through school, so I don't have the time or cash to go to school for myself (at the present). I'm learning from guys and gals like you, who are willing to share their knowledge with others. May God bless you and your endeavors. Thanks again, keep it up!

[@neatcosplay9162]

I've been enjoying the beginner filmmaking tutorials you've created. Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on how these could be used for creating videos on youtube and how film rules are the same/different when creating content for youtube.

[@ryanmccurdy9423]

Super intuitive! I'd recommend this for any beginner. The only thing you forgot when you were talking about lens is the Effect telephoto lens have in a CU or wide shot. Yet I know you covered those in your lens video just thought I'd point that out. Great video as always.

[@DIYCameraGuy]

Great video, I'm sure that this will help a lot of people.

[@chrisbigland8011]

Just wanted to say cheers for your vid, am teaching Film Studies and your tutorial video (I watched a lot of them) is by far the most engaging and interesting for keeping a 14 year old's attention. Nice one mate.

[@jacobvarney23]

Your channel has so much valuable information. How have you learned so much at such a young age? Did you go to film school or learn on your own?

[@D4Darious]

Thank you JV. I did go to film school and I've made a feature film and a number of short films.

[@ohhFura]

Where can I watch your feature film?

[@NGC96]

The feature is Unsound(I've been waiting for a while to see it!Still not out), he did a short film before that to get the bigger project moving. To talk with him look at the link in description to his website!

[@jamescamren4757]

Thank you for all that you share with us and for your encouragement.

[@jonathanacuna]

Interesting to see how the different angles can change the audiences perspective. Thanks for sharing!

[@tinadelabriandais5282]

Yes, there are lots of basic tutorial type videos out there. But I have found that reinforcement helps, a lot. I am just trying to learn filmmaking as a hobby, so I don't put the same time into it. These videos help drive the point into my thick skull. ;) Also, the explanation of the use of a wide angle lens and what it does was great. And I've never heard it put that way before. That was excellent. :)

[@penguinYT1]

One of the best explaination of shots! Loved the labeled film.

[@samukka007]

hey Darious , I'm Brazilian, I do not speak English, only Portuguese, but I'm very much a fan of your channel. At the end of your movie is written "FIN" with the letter N but if you wanted to write in Portuguese the correct one is "FIM" with the letter M at the end of the writing FIM= THE END Congratulations on your channel, I love the content.

[@tonyfisher6379]

This is like an entire class in one video. Thanks so much. Liked and subbed! 🤙🏼💪🏼

[@memphismadetez]

thank you for speaking my language and being fun while teaching.. im a digital cinematography student at full sail university

[@umrkhayam]

[@puregarbagefilms]

D4Darious and Film RIOT, both entertaining and educational. Salute! from the Philippines with love.

[@isaachedges1270]

U r honestly amazing keep it up I'm proud of you

[@Monkiimagic]

Just discovered your videos, really helpful information and advice, learning a lot.

[@TommyStarssonfilm]

i really enjoyed the short film.. it was powerful. the camera angles were effective.

[@AllesPat]

Your actress is so pretty - who is she? Nice tips by the way!

[@Ricardo-vg8is]

I thought the same.

[@warrengday]

Me too. I assume she is a friend. What's her name? Surprised you didn't mention her name in description. Great video as usual.

[@hoodiejack]

Wtf...

[@sasadervisevic5923]

lol.like it s a porn site :))) hahaha whos the actress. lmfao

[@sasadervisevic5923]

Luis one more thing plz helpe to rule this one : samsung nx500 or gh4 for video work , weddings , b roll shooting, nature shooting b roll

[@hallownaught4022]

I really enjoying the science behind each shot, I'm trying to get into short films. even some greenscreen and "fvx". I do everything on my phone though; however I just never have any ideas.

[@SovereignSt8]

You are the BOSS! I grabbed some of these frames for my own reference. Tanks!

[@leahmcpherson7560]

your energy is infectious!

[@WENGZWORLDEntertainment]

This is such a great tip..ill practice using this guides..im just new into filming and ive learn so much from you..awesome

[@aresg9670]

Nice scene! Loved the intensity you built with all of the close up angles, and mysterious character. I do personally think that by keeping the shot at 9:03 a little longer, you ,might have been more expressive with your actor. Also the movement at 10:05 confused the crud out of me at first lol. I still love all of it, and it's way better than anything i'm currently capable of. Keep going D4, you are the man.

[@samiace7427]

As someone currently studying film I found this video very helpful with my assignment :D Thank you!! You have a new subscriber XD Love your videos and the humour

[@bnycemusic]

I'm a noob and started shooting with my galaxy note 10 plus just intill I get a camera but I thank you for showing me the small thing now I have more confidence going forward

[@annietime4232]

maaan i almost missed your video cause the preview didn't have your face on it :O (i'm also subscribed to similar channels with similar thumbnails for their videos and i skip most of those to watch later when i need the info, but i never miss your videos cause you have such a cool personality and your way of presenting the info is the best and the quality is dope obv))) so maybe that'll help you out - knowing that some people look out for your videos in particular :D good luck in everything you do)
