[@JairajSinghPatil]

I'm a simple man. I see a Film Riot video, I press like.

[@WilliamHerasme]

So much gear that I wish I had but can't affordable. Hell yeah.

[@seriouslyyavi5293]

William Herasme stealing is just borrowing permanently

[@SpacewayFilms]

Rent it.

[@WilliamHerasme]

Seriously Yavi I like the way you think.

[@filmriot]

+William Herasme I don't own 90% of it. I rent it when I have projects that have a budget (which is rare)

[@josephbarrett2425]

These guys just rent it.

[@CinemaByteProductions]

I just about died laughing at 1:18. Give that man a raise! hahaha.

[@mrpekko98]

Same 😂 Seems like no one is talking about that scene except you 😂😂👌

[@iWinGamer]

CinemaByte wasn't funny

[@Pafmau]

I join u guys :D

[@OlegZalizniak]

ROFL

[@KosFishingTeam]

i laughed soo much too

[@WeegieMovies]

Imagine having the money to play around with this kind of gear lol. I'm still stuck in the phase of me and my mates dicking about with DSLRs, GoPros, phones and whatever else we can get our hands on. Skateboards for dollys, rope and a pole sticking out a backpack for handheld stabilisation, and calling in favours from everyone I've ever met haha!

[@DomskiPlays]

same lol

[@WeegieMovies]

Domski Plays Hey, onwards and upwards eh?

[@Jwilkinsonstudios]

WeegieMovies I was there too a couple years ago. Now I have a Red and other "fancy" stuff. Just keep chugging along.

[@iWinGamer]

WeegieMovies haha!

[@matthewpaolucci2854]

IM RIGHT HERE WITH YA

[@NatesFilmTutorials]

LA, Chicago, and New York, I Just learned something new! :)

[@pipois]

First step: Have a lot of money...

[@anita.b]

Step zero: Make money and invest it in better gear over a period of time in YEARS.

[@FruitBoxFilms]

It doesn't happen over night.. definitely have to get a second job.. or a third job.

[@thomaszinicola7610]

Filmriots whole purpose is to show the different phases of film making. So while yes we have sadly moved out of the whole DIY feel, we've moved up to a higher level of education that we can all aspire too. And once we start getting out on the lower end productions, I think we all will appreciate seeing these episodes. I miss the old DIY stuff as much as the next guy, but the quality of what these guys put out have sky rocketed. and hopefully it will help us when we start getting to that more semi pro range.

[@FruitBoxFilms]

Josiah Zinicola Agreed, and if I recall, Ryan actually has brought this subject up a few times in the past.

[@creativeleo]

Second Step, throw it all away and buy the stuff and then cry, because now you might be suffering for lack of Ideas.

[@LoganMcNay]

Knowing the gear you guys use is always so helpful to know. I always trust the things you promote and I've bought my c100 and aputure ls 1s led light in the process. I even built my own diy light bar from you guys. Learning the right tools are a great starting point to study what fits the best to my needs and these videos always help. Haven't been disappointed with any of it either, great video as always

[@filmriot]

+Only At Northfield Right in man! We still use our C100 mkI to shoot the episodes.

[@TimothyHalleran]

Film Riot awesome episode ryan and crew!!!

[@clb6675]

Film Riot The best I have is one of those Sony camcorders.

[@prestonchui]

Literally clicked into this video to see basic gear used for short films, ended seeing a lot more stuff than I expected, lmao!!!!

[@InsideTheHauntIndustry]

love this channel! keep coming back time and time again.. keep it up fellas

[@indiegear336]

Flex lights are so much fun to use and super versatile. Would be cool to see a high quality diy version

[@logan_fulford]

It'd be cool if you guys could get some new sponsors. I don't think I'm the only one who just completely tunes out with the usual domain.com, especially as it's the same thing most of the time. Something like a film equipment company would be really interesting! Just something that your general viewers might get a bit more out of :) Never the less, great video as always. Keep up the awesome films and tips!

[@cirqueLIFE]

Those light sheets look amazing!

[@laverdad871]

Ok lets make a short film. The first thing you are going to need is... A fRiCkiNg ALeXa

[@gtkmarko]

You are killing it with sponsors. I feel like it's channel made for sponsors + random shit we record through week.

[@zachdewitt7911]

Can you do some stuff with STOP MOTION?! Specifically, lighting a green screen, and evenly lighting a subject, please.

[@justy5800]

Thanks, bought the same Alexa camera that you used. Got some amazing results!

[@SilasWilloughby]

You bought an Alexa Mini?!!!

[@tjkramer3180]

THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO RYAN!!! THIS IS GOING TO HELP ME SO MUCH!!!!!!🎥📽

[@RotterStudios]

awesome video. love your channel. love the gear!

[@skygeorge3638]

I always wonder why you don't shoot a feature film! You shoot on such a high level - why not bigger? Also i'm the 100th comment!

[@ManuShapopi]

OMG, That black board at 01:32, I thought it looked so stupid when I did that. But now that I've seen you do it, I feel like a pro.

[@randycadkins]

you never cease to crack me up Ryan, lol

[@kaziwaleed]

Overwhelmed.

[@honeypiethemovie7661]

@filmriot You guys are great! How have you managed to maintain the quality and novelty for decades? Not only maintain but increase!

[@thathorrorshow4126]

I love this channel.

[@Terrachotic]

Ryan... What's wrong, buddy? You seem low today. :( #PrayForRyan

[@amarieyo]

#PrayForRyan

[@filmriot]

[@shortstraa8849]

#HugRyan 😘😘

[@RetroMediaGroup]

I really love you guys vids so dope

[@gamestv4875]

Wow.That is awesome gear.I will buy them all tomorrow.Must be really really cheap !

[@caro3083]

and I'm just over here with a 4 year old DSLR, the cheapest Rode mic I could buy, and an equally as cheap stabilizer from amazon.....maybe one day....

[@DialloMoore503]

Caroline R All you need is PASSION.

[@clb6675]

Technological advantages are only a fraction of the equation. You can have an imax camera but if you have no story or anything interesting to put on camera, then there’s no point. Just make the most out of what you do have

[@norbertnemeth8045]

In 2022 I'm still shooting on a d7100 (2013) with a cheap kit lens and a yongnuo 50mm 1.8 without a stabilizer. Im using my broken 5 years old 20$ tripod but im happy with my gear. It could be worse :)

[@TheFilipinoFilmMaker]

AWESOME!!!

[@YakTownReppin]

I need to go back to the old videos, this for the higher budgeted folks

[@whitepointstarproductions8905]

Soon you'll be saying "I know you've heard me say that I know you've heard me say that the list of domains is growing"...

[@fullframevisuals]

Is it sad that 1:17 was probably the funniest thing I've seen in a long while? My god! xD But great episode in general!

[@AwesomeSauceShow]

Whoo Rian you are coming up on the 1 million subs! Cant wait till your there so i can congratulate you! I have 18 so just 999982 to go :D

[@happyfoxproductions]

I thought you guys would've used a Movi M10 or 15 for the Alexa, cool to see you fit the camera on the M5!

[@xXLunaSunXx]

Omg I love your channel

[@CartoonCorey]

Saying flat, side, or tall seems faster than LA, Chicago, and New York. But hey, names are fun!

[@devinfrank2288]

Corey the Editor my guess is they say new york because new york is called the big apple and when they call for new york it's the tallest it can be

[@MiStABeNtLy64]

Can you please do a vid on that pull focus? I'd need to know more 😤

[@FromAshToPhoenix]

GREAT! Thank you!

[@dylanrayphotography3850]

Gear for a Short Film ?!!! those are more than Disney has

[@spacecadet35]

It is always nice to have half a million dollars of gear just lying around the house. Except for the camera, you seem to be using more and better gear than they used in the whole of Indiana Jones.

[@doylelacrua]

That looks fun being the remote focus puller.

[@fusseldieb]

If you fail, the whole team needs to redo the whole work. Yeah, they will kill you....

[@doylelacrua]

Sounds fun, haha.

[@justflum]

Thank you so much!

[@hammadification4422]

Your video tutorials should be titled $50,000 budget filming equipment for beginners

[@TheDiamondcr33p3r]

Lets just all make this clear, there was a lot of shit that you dont need that he used, and in my opinion when you start just from the minimum you learn so much more.

[@AnthonyGreene15]

Can you guys do an episode just about lighting outside? Especially at night? It's something I've been trying to figure out for a while now.

[@LEONPIXELMOVE]

Great Video again! :)

[@anita.b]

You meant he made a Great Video Again!

[@iWinGamer]

Angel Kanchev what the fuck are you talking about

[@mrwhitemantv]

Film Riot has definitely grown out of DIY

[@PsychonautTV]

OMG 1 MILLION LETSGOOO

[@TheranLadion]

you guys should start doing " Fantastically Terrible moments in cinema" again!

[@TheTheorizer]

Hey Film Riot :)

[@newpix7555]

I just bought a D5300! I think for what we both do that camera is rock solid! Invest your money on better lenses ;)

[@zxaverytaylorxz]

Nice!

[@fabianvalenzuela3935]

Almost a million subs!

[@bjarkisteinnpetursson9736]

Either Justin is HUGE or my can lights are twice the size of yours. I've got 6 and I agree, they are the best. Just so good.

[@CarlosEmilosTV]

When you are so early, you don't know what to do.

[@gizmogoose.2486]

That means your a follower not a leader . . . and it's the age of Aquarius.

[@iWinGamer]

Gizmo Goose. The fuck are you on about

[@MrFunkytaco007]

1 million is closing in

[@salahproductions7851]

Hey Ryan what kind of Lavalier microphone do you have I'm starting a KZbin channel and also I have a camera recommendation the Panasonic gh4 with the 18-35mm with a speed booster with a I footage crane and a I footage slider

[@SilasWilloughby]

Buy the G7 instead!

[@Shxckz]

Yeah I live in Dallas!

[@vcc5]

Yea could you go over how you would personally handle production audio recording (specifically dialogue)? I'm curious why no lavalieres were mentioned during the audio portion and just want to hear your stance on it?

[@FrancescoFerraris]

A question out of the blue - What do you guys think about the Samyang/Rokinon lenses designed specifically for video (t aperture, focus ring, etc)? Best solution on a budget?

[@GabrielRodriguez-cb8hb]

besides the amazing gear I'm interested in where Ryan got that shirt

[@SAndSPictures]

1:17-1:27 that part wth Justin was hilarious hahaha

[@bm625]

That cracked me up.

[@Fahrizalmoch]

Film Riot is a best channel for learb about film making i think. Keep make artworks dude.

[@rob-fischer]

Hi Ryan, did you transfer the viewfinder image to all the monitors (at camera, follow focus aso) wirelessly? If so, what kind of multicast device did you use to transfer it? Thanks

[@danielbates1373]

What's with all this hate mail? Be grateful they're showing us this stuff anyway, thumbs up Ryan 👍🏻

[@matthewvitale2604]

Hey Ryan, Out here in L.A. we call the Apple Box position that is completely flat "California" not LA ;)

[@brown2840]

This should be titled: Gear for a Real Movie

[@willlula2462]

Thanks so much

[@AyoubElkalai]

i'm from morocco you are great rayan

[@johnbradford5941]

Ayyyyeeeee J-Rob !!!!!!!

[@pixelatedwarrior8990]

I would personally like to see some sort of post apocalyptic film from you guys. That way you could get into more advanced color correction to set the whole, "world ended" mood and maybe cool ideas for like props and things.

[@SeminoleStateCollege]

Hey Ryan and Film Riot crew! Could you tell me what your setup is at 1:33? I want to invest in an easy rig for our DJI Ronin M which is around 20 lbs fully rigged. I rented the Vario 5 with 9" extended arm but when flying it I noticed that my hips caused the easy rig to bounce and therefore screwed up the shot. Do you have a recommendation for extension length as well as the need for the serene attachment? Also have you guys used a Ronin M and still noticed vibrations? Thanks for any help you can give- Brian

[@dixienormis2367]

Hey film riot dudes. great episode! Maybe next time you could give a rough estimate of how much we should expect to dish out for such equipment? I know prices vary from renter to renter, but that is extremely valuable info for us filmmaking noobs. green power ranger is the best.

[@notfam0us]

does the BV10 support the alexa mini well? i recently did a shoot with the alexa mini on a Sachtler Video 20 and debated grabbing a used one for my personal ursa mini.

[@filmog2520]

Dope

[@josephseamons1742]

dude! I have that shirt! I wear it like every week!

[@Omnipotent2013]

TOYSSSSS I CAN"T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO GET THEM ALL NEED MORE FREELANCE WORK!! :D

[@rozequartzubs3236]

He Looks like the guy who made the “my brother Jordan” documentary

[@MrChronicallyHappy]

What lights did you use for the outside fire shot? Surely you can't get enough kick from LEDs to do that?

[@ArabShield481]

Great thanks

[@juliansfilmmaker]

Holy crud the flex is $850!

[@iWinGamer]

Cinema Studios holy crud? Are you 9?

[@isaacisinthehouse]

+Jake Smith What's with you replying all over this comment section spreading negativity? If you don't have something polite and/or worthwhile to say, don't say anything.

[@juliansfilmmaker]

Jake Smith No...its just more expensive then I thought it's just my personal opinion and sadly you can't accept other people's opinions. :)

[@jackdolah2031]

This is freaking Hollywood gear

[@95MartyD]

RYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!! HUgs and kisses xo ! :)

[@GigglrTv]

Do you recommend the 32" monitor for watching videos of the adult kind? Asking for a friend.

[@karemakram5112]

Hey which software can i use for vfx to do something like a time freeze Ps. Element 3d doesnt work :(

[@ProArt18]

Adorable

[@legokid1570]

i love your vidoes

[@ChaoticMatters]

Apple box kit for any apple-cation?

[@AndrewPRoberts]

Did you guys use the grip truck as the moving truck in the short?

[@filmriot]

+Unidrw Sure did! Good eye.

[@tortenhebu]

hahahhahahahahaha best part with the easy rig LOOoO!L!!KO!LO!L!OL!O!OL! LOVE YOOOOOU

[@mr.z8188]

Make a feature soon Ryan coz age is running fast!

[@anarchyproductions4140]

Im wearing that same exact shirt your wearing in the film😂

[@artifexrex1578]

"Turns out she was a cop the whole time" so many movies, but I'm going to have to guess my favorite one. A Scanner Darkly?

[@FilmProductionLLC]

Where could I get the basic impact dimmers? the black ones you show at 3:03:00. What's the brand?

[@senceryazici]

I'm a fan of film riot, but still don't know what he says till "I'm your host Ryan"

[@leosylver7]

RYAN please do an episode of the zoom f8 recorder?

[@KrisDBates1]

I Have one question Re: how do I add a tattoo to a hand after already shooting/editing?

[@smytofficial7032]

Is that a new lav you guys are using?

[@elementsk8r1717]

Can you try anamorphic on the GH5 pls 🙏🏻

[@matthewmagnus]
