Getting Cinematic Footage: Any Location, Every Time.

[@markbone]

Let me know any Q&A you have about this upcoming film and I’ll add it into future videos! Also, don’t miss out on the Polar Pro Black Friday sale tinyurl.com/4ybpx478

[@DJILLEE]

I'd like to know how you make them feel so comfortable during the interview process and how you lead them through to make sure you get what you need to support the story. Your films and channel have made it clear to me that documentaries is what I want to do! Appreciate you bro!

[@TheGrassfedHomestead]

I noticed you have the cinemascope aspect ration but some of your shots looked like you used the Helios which is a spherical lens. Can you discuss the aspect ratio and how you decide which lens to use to work with that aspect ratio? I'm not sure if my question is making sense.

[@Leprutz]

isn't that song during the preview a bit overused?

[@Leprutz]

@@DJILLEE just eing nice and professional, relaxed and yourself. But I don't think there is like a guide for that.. Tips yeah but you must see what works for you. lways being nice and relaxed. People in general dig that.

[@1NebraskaPyro]

Don't know if you've done this already, but if you haven't show us how you grade that FX9 Doc footage! It has a distinct look every time and I love it

[@BrendanEvan]

Have to admit, this was a lot better and more helpful than I expected. And I really appreciate the lack of useless vlog-style fluff!

[@markbone]

Thanks Brendan!!

[@RkaiserTalks]

Hear hear.

[@victorgenao2936]

Just subscribed for that. Great quality and to the point. Exhausted of the vloggers telling me what did they ate today instead of telling me about the product.

[@Rob-fi2pe]

Came here to pretty much say exactly this!

To be honest ... your tutorials have changed the way I think about and execute filmmaking. Solid, practical advice with real-world examples and not just a bunch of jibber-jabber. Thank you for so generously sharing your genius. I am inspired. And, the film showcased here - WOW!

[@markbone]

Thanks for this feedback Don! This is great

[@dreamstudiotvnetwork9225]

Excellent examples of blue and gold morphic

[@markbone]

💯

[@andrewbernardi8761]

this is a great way to think about cinematography

[@shaybeezink]

Color grading! The before and after was incredible would love to see how you guys color correct footage like this!

[@sisiunohelu3311]

Grateful for your willingness to share your knowledge 🙏

[@markbone]

My pleasure

[@zhuber]

I use your backlighting tip every time I shoot now and it has drastically improved my documentary footage, thank you Mark!

[@markbone]

Love if Zach!!

[@amsein4494]

These tips are the difference between an actual cinematographer speaking vs a KZbin filmmaker. Massive difference

[@JohnEvans]

You're great Mark

[@TonyRush21]

LOOOOVE THIS!!! EXCELLENT INFORMATION!! BEAUTIFUL FOOTAGE! WELL DONE!!

[@gregtanner8501]

That forest scene with the smoke is SICK

[@chuchonmc]

As a photographer, I feel more inspiration on you than on many photographers out there. Not just for the tricks like the mist filter, also for the importance of the goals/purpose over the perfection. Living and feeling over just sharpness or 2500€ quality lens.

[@JonathanRichey]

The Artem smoker in the forest was a nice touch! Definitely made the location more interesting.

[@rawnavarro1578]

this video is gold, thanks for sharing!!!!

[@VandalTV]

you're real passionate, Mark. Its truely inspiring, thank you.

[@KasbashPlays]

What I've learnt from you (and a few other DoP friends of mine) is that the more you add on-location - Haze, Filters, Smoke, ND, etc., the lesser work you need to do on post to make your footage look great.

[@gillesmatheronpro]

Some facts for the sport fans... The "Dakar" rally, previously known as the "Paris - Dakar" rally was created by Thierry Sabine ("tee-ayh-ree sah-been"), a man with passions for motorcycle and Africa. He eventually died during the 1986 edition, in a helicopter accident that killed four others (including singer Daniel Balavoine). The "Dakar" rally was taken over by his father for some years, before being operated by ASO. This is the same company behind the Tour de France and dozens of international sports events. Very interesting perspective you gave us Mark, with the force of these immersive images. Thank you.

[@sajanapeiris8416]

your film looks beautiful

[@mikeR39]

The amount of video people Mark inspires and teaches is insane. I just found this channel and it's literal gold

[@Mr_Kenneth]

Love those filters. Especially the warm anamorphic glow.

[@itsmahdisadeghi]

Always blown away by the value that your videos provide ❤❤❤

[@drmatthewhorkey]

This channel should be well over 1 million subs. Great job again Mark

[@therealjamesb]

So many great points raised! Thanks for sharing your vision with us. One thing that really resonated with me was "pool of light" @ 6:57

[@1001Media.]

Great tips and cool footage, thanks mate!

[@TheFelixsKitchen]

As a new Culinary Filmmaker after cooking for the past 29 years and this pandemic crippled our Resturants, I really appreciate these episodes, great job. Thanks a Million for the precious nuggets of knowledge they make me batter at my new craft. Aloha🤙🏾

[@llawranceprabha]

Amazing... very very creative .... great share of the knowledge... i wish you more and more sucess..... love you mark

[@lightwavesmediastudios]

This is fire

[@vatosgym]

Thank you Mark! Lately, more and more frequently the question 'what's the point?' pops up in my head... And then one of your videos comes along to remind me that it's not how someone will appreciate your work, but how you'll feel in the process of creating it. It's 5am, I will now grab my camera and head to the gym. It will be a 1 minute edit which I will enjoy shooting and editing and f***k what anyone thinks 😁💪🏼

[@SeanTolan_illuminated_imaging]

THIS is gold...thank you for sharing. I have an upcoming shoot for a Bed and Breakfast with rich history, and this helped get my mind thinking about more than just what camera I am using, or what the scripting will look like (All important, but visual story telling is so important as well)

[@joemamamia1751]

Ooooo, this is looking to be a gorgeous film, Mark. And those tracks used 🎶… Very excited! 🤙🏼

[@BMWADVCR]

I met Lawrence in Chile for the 2012 BMW GS Trophy. He’s one of the best motorcycle storytellers out there. That must make it waaay easier to shoot a story. GREAT video!

[@romuloferreira9251]

Man, wtf, this is great. Unbelievable visuals.

[@RReMMuSS]

Maann ! One of the best videos I ve watched in a long time! So much good, really good, information in such a short video! To the point, amazing examples and so much inspiration! Thank You, for that!

[@pierrezapata90]

Your videos are always so good and have really helped me get in a mindset for making film rather than just saying- get this gear or that to make this happen. I really appreciate that bit of motivation. And you're always making youtube videos even while shooting such wonderful documentaries. So much devotion to filmmaking as well as helping all of us! Thank you so much

[@beautifulcoloursentertainm8958]

much respect to you bro......My brother from another mother........ur vlog says....."I want to see you grow as a cinematographer"........tots on the note pad to get meaningful B roll, made it for me.....Thanks again......

[@BriannaRoseCinematography]

Lots of great advice! I liked how you pushed for us new filmmakers to not be afraid to add haze, add shake to your footage, to get creative but to also make sure it is intentional and planned in advance. When I first saw the flares I was like is he shooting an anamorphic lens...but then could tell it was a modifier which for a person like myself that hates horizontal flares in images I could see how this could come in handy for those very few moments that it would actually complement your story. Nice job on this and good luck on your documentary it looks awesome already :)

[@SanczykLucas]

I really like the idea of 'errors with purpose'. Good concept. Thanks for sharing!

[@marcuswall8852]

This is good, thank you so much for sharing! Great inspiration video 👍😊

Great points! Loved the input & appreciate it man.

Craft filmmaking at its finest.

[@prestonowens4594]

Dude that shot at 6:15 is gorgeous.

[@manymystics]

Dude, you seem like a badass cinematographer who seems really passionate about your work. Hell yeah.

[@kevsteelevisuals]

not sure how I came across this but loved it. Key words: "Think weird / think different" and "tone and emotion". Loved the shotgun mic drop in the pickup - I just picked up some spacers for a smaller sennheiser that suffers the same tendency - I'll be directing a docuseries this coming year and we chose the FX9 and FX6 -still choosing the lenses with my DP - nice to see how you're creating the feel for this doc. kudos. also a big fan of hazers....

[@luzianjung9467]

i would love to see how you graded this amazing look? Maybe a break down of your colour grading process? Great Video!!

[@wisecomvidevide4874]

Am in East Africa Uganda.. I love everything you do. God bless you Sir.

[@giuseppe.g]

Man you are amazing

[@riddimkiller]

Thanks for this Mark, love it! Can you tell us what the arm and clamp are called that you attach to your monitor? I see them at 2:51 but can't figure out where they're from. Thanks so much!

[@zacharykepler3567]

Best videos✨ How on earth do you rig your LED mat to the ceiling?

[@nextgas100miles9]

Nice, to the point,informative piece. It did not feel like 8 minutes. Thanks for the gear info as well. Best of all I learned. Thank you. You just got a new subscriber!

[@DjSoulsaver]

The algorithm got me here. Never seen your videos and got to say. Awesome work. Clearly already blew past the 100k mark. It'll be a rocketship from here. Great footage, great tips and will add more to the watch later list. Keep up the awesome work Mark. Hopefully levels up my own work on the main channel.

Hands down, the best filmmaking channel on KZbin

thanks brother!

[@ericdelano8703]

This is a great video! Thank you for helping me improve my Video Production skills by teaching me some tips on how I can achieve more exciting cinematography no matter where the shoot is!

[@mudbrats]

Can’t wait to watch that biography! Nice tips

[@WhySteve]

Great idea, taking notes on what they're talking about!

[@Glen.Danielsen]

Just a marvelous video: vision, creativity, beautiful. Thanks much Mark.

[@markbone]

🙏🏻 thank you!

[@jacktree9987]

Mark, this was fantastic. Extremely clear and useful advice that was delivered so naturally, very easy to watch and take in. Beautiful vision, and even your talking head setup was warm and beautiful to look at, subbing off this 👏🏼. Would also love to see BTS of the colour matching/ grading process!

dope,very good things to keep in mind..cant wait to see the film

[@benharvey1403]

Really enjoyed this video. I'm new to your page but really enjoying it and learning a lot. Not only do you have a great skill set, but you really have a great understanding of the challenges that those of us with less experience have and you do a fantastic job communicating these helpful hints! I just watched your video on how to shoot handheld before this one, and I would really love to see more of your movements and filming. I understand you might not wanna give away too many secrets, and I also understand that it would take a lot of someone else shooting BTS for you. But if you have more specifically from your dakar video that you could share, I would really love to study what you did closer and try to get myself inside your head a bit more. Thanks for all you do for us noobs, Mark!

[@SeanBreathnach]

Great! Some really beautiful shots there and great tips too.

[@makeamedia310]

Wow this was awesome! Love the way you were articulating your tips. It made so much sense. Much appreciated bro.

Always inspiring. You are the best Mark

[@ronweasley7005]

I’m shooting an ad film and this is so helpful!

[@crimbonater]

Great advice and insight as always, thank you. I’d be interested to understand the process of how you obtain the old racing footage for your Dakar doc?

[@mozartmediaproajm3507]

I think it's pretty cool what your doing. Like your style.

[@Smoojer0Charles]

Go out and shoot guys. Most of these videos are ads for products. Just go shoot and you’ll figure it out. The more you shoot the better you’ll get.

[@BrandonTalbot]

I just bought these! Super stoked to use them.

[@estuardoruiz5373]

Thank you Mark, always great material!

[@tmonkeypunch]

I just wanted to say that you are my second favorite KZbinr after Kara & Nate (travel KZbinrs). Watching your videos is not only educational but it pumps me up to go out and shoot another project.

[@chrisleggat4668]

Love your content and channel, really surprised you never mentioned lighting. You extra lighting in all of interview and indoor shots, I would love to hear more about your approach to lighting. Thanks, and as always, keep the content coming!

[@scamp_media]

Yeah, me too.

[@turbotaquitogoogle8095]

It pisses me off. Every single KZbin cinematographer says the same shit: haze, mist filter, lens flares. These are just trendy easy band-aid options to get decent footage. Most truly great photography is far more inspired, plus lighting tends to be 50+ percent of what makes things look "cinematic."

[@infamousmediagroup4395]

Love this! Great points and ideas! I'll definitely being bringing these tidbits to set with me next shoot!

[@shermantwl]

Very good information i got out of this video! Great work Mark! 🤟🏼

[@AnthJamesFBG]

Mark at 5:33 does that have the Goldmorphic filter on? Or is that just natural flare?

[@sutv6754]

Another very info packed video. Good stuff. Thank you.

[@SusanRnewyork]

Good stuff! I’ll be trying some of your suggestions! Great job explaining too.

[@Joyful-Yarn]

Thoughful, intelligent, useful and enlightening. Thanks man.
