FILM B-ROLL like a PRO CINEMATOGRAPHER

[@sejongsadventuresforkids851]

Thanks for the BROLL education. Here are my notes for others to copy: 1. WHERE: A wide shot - WHERE it’s happening 2. WHAT: A closeup on the hands of a subject - showing WHAT is happening 3. WHO: A closeup on the face of a subject - showing WHO‘s doing it 4. LINK: An over the shoulder shot (OTS) - linking together the previous three concepts 5. CONTEXT: Alternate shot An unusual, or side/low shot - providing story-specific context

[@NicksFort]

Perfect! thanks for writing this up. I think this will be helpful for a lot of people. Hit that thumbs up!!

Best broll video on KZbin

[@Fisherkingnigel]

A massive tip, write down all his points in your memo pad of your smartphone. Next time your filming pull out the tips and go over a plan of the shots you want before shooting! It’ll give you a clear plan and speed up the filming process. Great video!

[@NicksFort]

Thanks for the kind words and that is a great tip. Taking a minute before you start filming to just recap in your head is amazing (if you have time)!

[@Fisherkingnigel]

NicksFort i think it’s good to have it written down in your hand then after 3-4x you’ll have it down pat. Sometimes I get all caught up and forget basic shots I should’ve gotten. Also I try it follow this rule....get a wide, mid, closeup and a pull back shot.

[@Germainmedia]

@@Fisherkingnigel excellent idea!!! Doing now!

First time I’ve ever seen someone explain this in details on KZbin, appreciate this man 😄

Thanks Joshua and happy it was helpful

[@PrimeInChina]

This is great because a lot of times people don't EXPLAIN how to get B-roll. They say, "oh, 120FPS go out and film". It is like WTF no, SO much more goes into it than just walking around at 120 fps. A lot of times we watch movies and we realize it looks good but not WHY it looks good. We don't know what to look for to understand why. Thanks for not just showing different shots, but explaining them and how they are used.

[@NicksFort]

Thanks for the thoughtful comment. I think having a good foundation is important, especially for b-roll. The filmmakers that I look up to aren't whipping around in 120 all day. They are thoughtful in there coverage and story driven. B-roll can be really cool but it's more important for it to serve it's purpose first...then once you can combine the two...well you're making cinematic work!

[@cree_VI]

haha, that how looked my photography lessons when i was a student (i had one semester) 🤣 teacher: next week bring me pictures of that and that... Me: how, why, what's that button is for... (silence) 🤣🤣🤣

We’ve been making our own music videos for a couple of years now, but we want to up level our game. We are using our quarantine time to learn as much as we can. B-roll was a weak area, so we’re hoping your tips will help us improve. Thanks, again! 🙌🏾😀

I actually pieced this together myself recently after watching a lot of different tutorials + mostly trial and error to be honest after coming home and realizing I didn't have enough footage of things. Getting just those few key shots in each scenario doesn't need to take long or be complicated but you need them. This is the first tutorial I saw that just clearly explains and shows this, this'll be so helpful to others. I thumbs upped it!

[@NicksFort]

Jess I think a lot of people learn this from trial and error as you've shared and hopefully this tutorial has saved a few people from doing that method, though it is fulfilling to learn as you go :)

[@CJamesPhoto]

Great stuff man! but what about a similar video for people who film alone? I do all my videos alone having to film myself, apart from two of them.. of course i can apply these rules you talked about but its a little different. 😀👊

[@NicksFort]

hmmm do you mean you film alone and you are filming yourself doing the action? because I think that all these can apply to filming alone, that is if you are filming another subject and you are the only filmmaker onset. But I am guessing you mean filming yourself doing the actual action also?

[@CJamesPhoto]

NicksFort yeah I mean being alone filming myself, I understand some of these things apply for that tho, I have been doing b-roll in my videos for a while now, but I was just curious if I’m missing something or could do something better.. Thanks for the reply tho :)

[@NicksFort]

I think you're doing a great job man. When you're filming solo it's harder but you have some nice clean broll in my opinion.

I just came across your KZbin site for the first time, and I'm so glad I did. Besides absolutely "spot on" information, you've taken the time to actually incorporate such footage properly into your tutorial to tell a very good story. So many tutorials I see on KZbin seem to be done just to churn out the next KZbinr's episode, rather than to visually show what the topic is about. I'm very impressed with your work!

Thanks for sharing. Using this 5 shot method makes a lot of sense to me. I’m looking forward to giving it a go. It’s given me some more ideas to think about. Cheers

[@NicksFort]

Right on Sam! Glad you are going to put this into practice :)

I opened up youtube this morning with the thought of ‘I still have no idea how I’m gonna film B-Roll’ and you’ve REALLY transformed my understanding. I’m going on my 1st trip that I will be filming for my youtube channel on Friday and seriously needed to understand more of how I can capture some effective B-Roll. I too loved Peter McKinnon’s video on B-Roll, but this really was just as good an educational experience for me, if not better. Thank you so much!

[@NicksFort]

Well I hope the trip went well and the broll came out good?

[@xavierthefilmmaker1684]

Dude this is epic! I'm headed out to Kenya on Monday for my first client backed doc and this is going to help me out so much. I'm so used to filming action sports so this should be a fun challenge. Thanks so much for spreading the knowledge

[@NicksFort]

That's amazing! I hope the doc shoot went well!

Nick, thanks a ton for your vid ! Just got my Dji spark and I’m trying to learn how to tell my stories from the air.... I was researching the Dji hand gimbal (I think I need one) when I somehow came across your very enlightening tutorial... I plan to definitely use this outline to make my first story.... Didn’t really know how I was going to get it done. Thanks

[@NicksFort]

Awesome Thomas! If you have the handheld gimbal and the spark you can get a lot of content with those two tools! Happy to have you at NicksFort and hope the filming goes well!

Thank you thank you ive watched video after video and your explination and teaching method is the best ive seen.

[@NicksFort]

Thanks so much Teresa! Glad you like it :)

[@ArvinConcepcion]

always want to watch these videos eventhough ive been making videos for a long time now, because maybe ill learn something new. Those 5 are underrated and ive learned that they are the building blocks

[@NicksFort]

Yeah you know it's funny, just making this tutorial really reinforced these ideas into my shooting style. It's easy to get caught up in a trend and be tempted to skip the basics. But getting those five shots is huge!

[@ArvinConcepcion]

NicksFort Yeah thats why its more better to stick to the basics, trends can die but the basics have been around for the longest time.

[@RunningAlive]

Simplified and practical... great tutorial

Glad you liked it!
