Just watched every second of this. Honestly life changing, and not trying to be dramatic. Very good for someone who has just become obsessed with cinematography. Thank you for taking the time to make this!

Great video, Michael! Loved the EQ bit - very true, and probably a very underrated skill no one talks about.

Thank you for your feedback, I admit my EQ is not great (always trying to improve) but hope to increase awareness around it
