Filmmaking gear that helped me make BETTER videos in 2023

[@PatrickStirling]

wild how much having clips of you actually out there doing the work adds to this. incredible stuff

[@RyanKao]

This means a lot dude. I truly mean it when I say, I don’t care to talk about or share gear with gear with you guys unless I’ve actually used it heavily in real work!

[@AyanKundlik]

The transparent bags were a good pick. Very handy for hardware organization. And as always nice video

[@RyanKao]

Totally agree. Such a solid tool. Thanks man!!

[@thisisfilmatic]

Great insight on equipment. I almost got the same utilites of stuff, but with different brands. Its always dope to see other creators solutions and product choices.

[@RyanKao]

Thanks for the watch!!

[@BenPhanStudios]

I watched this video months ago, but tonight I got really frustrated trying to find a small gear item. I remembered this video and decided to get those pouches from your affiliate link. Thanks man!

[@RyanKao]

Glad I could help man!

[@patnolan_]

Wireless comms are an absolute game changer, the best on set!

[@mradriiiian]

Good stuff! I can't wait to invest in all of these things 😂 My top 3 1. steel cap shoes 2. Hip pouch 3. A good little flashlight & Multitool

[@RyanKao]

Thanks!! The amount of multitools I have laying around here... Lol Always a solid choice!

[@mradriiiian]

@@RyanKao You can't work without one! :D what's your favorite for everyday set carry?

[@DeafDirector]

Thanks for the great tips, Ryan. Some really solid recommendations in there. Have a great day!

[@RyanKao]

Thank you! You too!

[@rogerdatfilms]

Those bags are nice I think ima get those !!

[@RyanKao]

Solid organization choice for sure!!

[@Milan-cf1xe]

I would get CRDBags instead of the mesh bags. They are really expensive but will last forever and are so much better quality and also they stay in shape and dont crease. They also have pretty nice labeling options.

[@LowellProductions]

solid video, Full Retention. Just picked up the usb-c cable you recommended, cheers sir

[@RyanKao]

Awesome, thank you! It's a solid purchase!

[@edwardcrockett]

geeez there's so much amazing gear on this list my bank account is not prepared lol

[@RyanKao]

Haha so hard to not to go overboard with film gear it's insane...

[@edwardcrockett]

@@RyanKao for real but there’s definitely some really useful stuff in your video!🤙🏼

[@GeovanyC]

Dude these are solid recommendations🫡🔥

[@RyanKao]

Glad you agree man!!!

[@Dwayne_M]

Super helpful thanks so much for creating this !!

[@RyanKao]

Thank YOU

[@Dwayne_M]

@@RyanKao Hey @9:51 What monitor mount is that, I need to find an alternate from the tilta from the komodo kit.

[@reelweaver]

8:26 I wish the arca swiss version would have a clamp like some competitors have. Also the flexebility is limited to the low end, instead of two mounting points more in the middle. To make it fit two the middle would mean two more mini wholes in the body...So an essential update. Also I feel the screwing solution is less condor blue style than a well build big blue clamp :) Thanks for your amazing videos!!

[@samuelhemmerling]

Great Video, Thank you for the Advice

[@RyanKao]

Glad it was helpful Samuel!

[@ryanchk]

I am very surprise that we having 95% similar gears and accessories, even those pouch and baskets 😂 and moreover we are both Ryan. 🎉 cheer

[@RyanKao]

Ayyoo great Ryan's think alike. Thanks man!!

[@travel9to5]

wow that us a banger list of equipment! thanks for sharing

[@thekylestubbs]

Ayeee, SOLID recs dude!

[@RyanKao]

Yo thanks man!

[@esaedvik]

Making the bags different color or having some kinda tags on them would make more sense. Now you have a dozen identical bags. Would be a paint to look for stuff, unless they're in the drawer in the same order all the time.

[@Woodleylozamma]

Thanks for those info. always good content

[@AustinCofran]

Wondering what velcro strips you use on your computer, been looking for ones that wont leave adhesive on it if I ever take it off. Great Video too, loved all the recommendations!

[@Cinematographer_brenton]

love those zipper bags! great video :)

[@RyanKao]

The best!

[@sureshotshun1]

great video!

[@RyanKao]

Thanks for the visit!!

[@trambolhao]

I wish I could say I love Kondor Blue... but I guess I'll never know, because of the ludacris shipping costs to Portugal.

[@Digitallifeconcepts]

" You had me at organized"

[@chipcurry]

Great stuff! Great ideas.

[@RyanKao]

Thanks!!

[@micahreimerfilms]

What’s the little square mounting part shown at 10:08 that allows you to screw on the Kondor Blue mini quick release to your wireless monitor??

[@RJCProductionFilms]

I think it's called: Kondor Blue Kondor Blue Swivel Tilt Monitor Mount with Arri Pin

[@MrSchurmann]

Killer tips brother!

[@itsjustroman]

That’s a pretty nice sony FX 3 build. What PL mount adapter is that?

[@NicklasToft]

did the camera live after its drop? D:

[@JRod1599]

Amazing video bro! Also what top handle is that?

[@KONDORBLUE]

Kondor Blue Talon Handle😊

[@Mrbenbarbie]

What was that drape you put on the lantern to control spill?

[@MrAndrewClaycomb]

Be careful with those SanDisk SSDs. They had a bad run of them, and they’ll spontaneously corrupt on you. It happened to a DIT on one of my sets, and I’ve heard from a couple of editors that have experienced it as well.

[@TheJ_G]

I second that. Both of mine flopped on me earlier this year within a couple months of each other. And I paid for the premium “pro” models. Luckily everything was backed up already, but I won’t touch these SSD’s anymore now. I’ve been dealing with all kinds of media drives for years and it’s reasonably rare to have one fail if you take care of them and change them out periodically, but it can happen randomly to even the best options. But to have two of the same type of drives fail from a single company, almost back to back, is pretty insulting as a customer. Especially with media claiming to be “pro” and priced accordingly. The only other time I’ve had media fail like that before was a couple of Lexar SD cards from several years back. I won’t touch those anymore either.

[@msides11]

There’s a serious lawsuit against Sandisk atm. I just had this same thing happen to me and I talked to a tech that gave me a free firmware update, which solves the issue. It’s an issue with the firmware of the original 2TB and 4TB (both regular SSD and pro) not the ones that are currently out and about. But also, the full media wipe never happened to me, even with spinning drives…

[@srujanmg8430]

where is the sony FX camera link nd lenses can u update

[@koshelev_dop]

Крутой ролик) я тоже использую внешние диски на задней панель и мака, но пока без провода с прямым углом. А так я кайфанул от ролика, спасибо)

Pour répondre sur la question de la présence des antennes Huawei en France. Huawei avait massivement investit et donc les opérateurs en ont toujours beaucoup mais le gouvernement avait ordonné le démentellement des antennes. Globalement les opérateurs ont fait pression et ils ont jusqu'à 2031 pour le faire. En revanche pour la 5G et le déploiement de nouvelles antennes ils doivent demander une autorisation de l'Anssi. Pour reprendre un article du Monde : l'Anssi veille à ce qu’aucune antenne Huawei ne soit située à proximité d’installations jugées stratégiques, qu’elles soient militaires, gouvernementales ou industrielles. Une ville comme Toulouse, siège d’Airbus et capitale française de l’aéronautique, est ainsi interdite au groupe chinois. Conséquence, SFR, qui avait prévu d’inaugurer son réseau 5G dans la Ville rose en 2020 avec du matériel Huawei, a dû se rabattre en urgence sur Nice. Sur les sites interdits par l’Anssi, les opérateurs n’ont d’autre choix que de passer par des équipements fabriqués par les Européens Nokia et Ericsson.
