That's easily the best behind the scenes of a commercial I have ever watched! Please make more of this.

[@carlostigs]

I appreciate that

Agreed, I subscribed after watching this one.

You: 13k followers. Peter McKinon 2M. You: actual working pro. McKinon (and others): pro “talking heads” going out once in a while to play with new toys. Awesome video!!

[@wasislos]

Your backstage cameraman did a fantastic job of capturing all those crucial and important moments of how the shooting is done. Cheers to him and to you!

[@leftclot]

this is sooo insightful. Shoutout Josh Heinrich, he did a great job!! Thanks for hiring him!!

[@carlostigs]

Thank you! He’s awesome

[@JoshHeinrich]

Ayy! Thank you!

[@antonbrask4574]

Realest behind the scenes ive seen on youtube, this is really seeing how it is actually done. So fun to see, and this crew seemed so proffesional. We want more!

[@Jared10112]

Love the BTS! You hear from a lot of people “If you want experience just get on set” This is truly an inside look on alot of the experiences on set. Love it!

[@carlostigs]

Thank you

[@Thomas278F]

It's really refreshing to see how well you work with everyone, considering it's commercial work as well time-constraints can be a killer so it was great to see you keep composure and professionality throughout

[@JoshHeinrich]

Thanks for the shoutout! I had such a great time! Thanks for having me.

[@carlostigs]

:)

[@avdpost]

Holy shit, the OG Black & Blue Evan Luzi. Amazing to see you on set, still grinding.

[@HermannOberg]

LOVE BTS where you actually show decision making between departments! Super usefull. Keep griding Stigliano!!

[@carlostigs]

Thanks!

[@lukakrstovic_]

Really interesting to see the difference when I film a commercial here in the Netherlands it goes totally different in terms of roles and schedule because they always expect to film longer than originally planned.

[@joshmillerdp]

This is dope dude. I work as a DP as well and it's WAY more then just making things look good. Just the ability to manage a crew makes it a whole different ball game.

[@MichaelSteighner]

LOVED this BTS look into the project. Like a masterclass if you pay attention. Hats off to the BTS crew too. Captured some great moments. Totally agree with the wrap up comments at the end. Sometimes it's hard to remain cool and communicate effectively on long production days, but goes a long way with the crew if you can master it. Looking forward to part 2!

[@carlostigs]

Thank you!

[@LukasHauf]

100% agree. Keeping a cool head and clear communication is key.

[@thehenryshow]

Love the long takes. It feels like being there. Hearing the feedback and conversations behind the scenes is a great way to learn.

[@lucabortolami]

my dream is working on sets like this! I shot my first mid budget shot film as a Cinematographer last week and it was incredible.

[@MichalOlender]

It was awesome to see the BTS on this one!

[@patrickperez9790]

ok this is legit. the real deal. thanks for allowing a BTS crew to shoot this. Subscribed.

[@JP-qq2wy]

This man is underrated chill lowkey but entertaining.

[@demiloca]

What really stands out is your wonderful demeanor - you are cool, calm, confident, humble, personable, besides technically and creatively aces.. It's the kind that goes all the way. Loved this. Day For Night at Airport. ;) I loved the opening music too.

[@FrankBott]

great over all.. makes you really appreciate the detail and strong communication necessary to pull this off.. thanks

[@goldencenturyfilms]

Super informative and an awesome way in to see what this kind of production consists of. Gotta say I also appreciate seeing more of your personality and the way you interact with your colleagues on set. Letting us get to know and see you more is a big win of this video that may not have been planned! Thanks for sharing

[@carlostigs]

I appreciate that!

[@JohnDSmith]

I love the long unedited takes. It's a great look into what it's like on set. Nicely done man.

[@heyheyhey520]

Director seems really great. Just in this video I can seem them interacting with all levels of the production and clearly communicating. I’m too much of a gear head to want to do all that social work!

[@Andyax]

This was a fantastic idea for a BTS video; To just let the audience be there with you. It got me super motivated for our next project :) So thank you!

[@carlostigs]

Thanks guys! Big fan of your work. Appreciate the love

[@christiancocuzzo]

I've never seen such a raw BTS this is amazing!

[@smoothhi]

Just loving the end of conclusion, please keep making more of this.

Super cool and pleasure to watch what looks like on a big set! Please make more of this

Shoutout to Lee Morton and Andrew Baer! Always killing it

[@ekphotography]

You are killing it man and you deserve it... Congrats.

[@JoaoCosta-ty8wi]

This BTS showed me a lot! The role of each person on the project and also de importance of a DP. Thanks for the video!

[@thomaslanterman5800]

Enjoying seeing your growth and commitment to excellence all the while keeping your composure. Please keep making these. For everyone.

[@jonahwalker4425]

This is awesome. The atmosphere, the reality, the questions... all super great. I'm just starting out, have been a one, sometimes two person crew progressing to bigger things and this is incredibly helpful on how to handle that. Thank you! More please :)

[@tiedtkeio]

Superb video Gian! Loved it. Also, as a DoP myself the line at around 19:40 "We're a little later than hoped" is so relatable, every god damn project hahaha.

[@joepalmer5339]

He’s done it again. He has DONE IT AGAIN! Nonstop bangers

[@saranesson8369]

Got a lot of out of this, thanks! Especially cool to see how cinematographer and director work together to find a creative solution to combine shots in order to accommodate the client's request for an addtional set up. Would love to see more of this! Would be great to get more through the lens to see how each set up it looks but that's a big ask! Great job to your crew and Josh Heinrich!

[@LukasHauf]

Loved the BTS. Watching this felt like a super nice and professional working day. Absolut enjoyed it.

[@halfduplexmedia6395]

Thanks for doing this video. I'm entertaining the idea of making a career change toward film/cinematography. This gives me a better understanding of what a FULL day might look like and all the different shoes to fill.

[@JRODVISUALS]

Seriously so interesting to watch. It has to be a bit difficult to find a BTS shooter and to incorporate him on a shoot day, when you are already making so many decisions. Thank you Carlo, appreciate your insight into our industry!

[@sameerbaria]

This is some high-quality content; so much to learn!

[@Bein87]

Bravissimo e professionale, e sopratutto crew molto competente e di supporto 💪🏻

[@rodrigovillanuevasuazo6521]

Amazing video, thanks Gian Carlo !

[@TerenceEnn]

Thank you for this! Just what I’ve been looking for

[@DarkRecon09]

I really enjoyed this video and I learned a lot. Me and my brother just started our production company last year and I have been the cinematographer for most of the videos we have been shooting. Eventually, I hope to trance for over full-time in the production company. Watching this video really inspired me. Keep up the good work bro.

[@Red-ju4mi]

So much more valuable than any online class imo

[@rgesualdo]

good to see #theblackandblue at work he is missed in interwebs!!!!

[@coreybond7356]

Great video, exactly what I've been searching for. Very insightful!

[@iamakkkshay]

Really blessed to discover you through Danny. As a guy based far away from film cities it's really helpful to get in the life of real pro's & experience situations by viewing their life.

[@ldt00]

I spent 5 years in college of architecture and 4 years after graduating to find out that cinematography is what i love, i love working with the camera, talking to the crew, writing scripts and discuss. What can I learn to get a job as a videographer.

[@vladbobe26]

Great BTS, much appreciated!
