Austen, many thanks for your help with your videos over the last 2 years :) this is a great help :)

[@AustenPaul]

Thank you for your support over the last few years

[@drAndreLinoge]

Educational as always. Keep it up!

[@KROMAprd]

Loved that concept for Bird Creek! I was sat here wondering how you got the cocktail stick to spin whilst clamped to a C Stand 😂 only to realise after that it was the bottle spinning in front of it! Simple but clever!

[@Footage30]

My respects!

[@AustenPaul]

Woot Woot!

Austen is the reason why I drink alcohol. Not sure if that's a good thing :/

[@AustenPaul]

Haha im sorry, I dont mean to its just so much fun to film!

[@beyondcompare8387]

🔥🔥🔥

[@brthiebauth]

Just a thought... Why not support your paper cutout from the bottom (the exact same way) instead of the top? That would eliminate the step of removing the support skewer from the shot. There may be a good reason you're doing so from the top like the paper won't support itself and will fall over.

[@sunilchitolie6771]

Might be because of the type of material the diffusion (tracing paper) is made of. If it’s supported from the bottle it’ll just fall down cuz it’s so light

[@KrazyDerek]

​@@sunilchitolie6771 You wouldn't need to attach it to the very bottom of the paper though, it could still hang down from 2 sticks connected into a T shape for example, with it all hidden behind the base.

[@sunilchitolie6771]

@@KrazyDerek ohhhh you’re right actually! Woops

[@AustenPaul]

I haven’t tried it so I could be wrong but Sunil is right the paper wouldn’t stand up it would fall over and also your idea of building a frame with the sticks it would show up inside the bottle giving a weird reflection. Again not 100 percent sure but from my experience of doing this a bit I pretty positive it would happen.

[@KrazyDerek]

@@AustenPaul True, I see what you mean. Maybe curve the paper so it holds itself up and have it stuck to a flat tripod head or similar?

[@abinavpicsandvids6319]

First view ❤

[@AustenPaul]

Woooo 👏

[@soundsbureaux]

Incredible shots! Would you take a similar approach for a translucent bottle? We have some bottles that are white, but the liquid shows through and I find them mostly horrific to photograph!!

[@OussamaAityassin]

😃😃

[@AustenPaul]

Wooooooo!

[@davidepiras4011]

thank's for the video. I wonder how to keep the focus when the camera move on the slider towards the bottle, autofocus?

[@AlexBellini3]

Hey Austen, for the lens, since I shoot on the Panasonic S5 and when shooting at 4K60 it has an APS-C crop.. would you recommend I get a 70mm Macro so that way it's somewhat equivalent to 100mm in APS-C or should I go for the 105mm Macro (105 is the only one for L-mount). Or will filming 30fps be fine? I can get full-frame at 4k30.

[@AustenPaul]

Always film at 30 the crop is lower qaulity use the 105 macro

[@AlexBellini3]

@@AustenPaul thank you, sir!

[@kudobeats]

Austen I am struggling with a lemonade project I am practicing with. Would translucent paper behind the cup be the best? Anything else I get a blown out look because the liquid is so clear and light bouncing around, and just the backdrop...just looks ugly as a foot.

[@DannyEvo-fk8qw]

Hi Austen.. Paid member of your courses Question for you.. May I have a link to where you buy your Duvetyne from or just a product code. From this video you said Savage make it but I can't find it online. Thanks Danny

[@AustenPaul]

Of course go to savage universal and its in their specialty backdrops section!

[@bpsgautam]

Curious to know,do you shoot in canon log. As your videos are so clean and canon r5 has noisy log profile.

[@andrejvindis933]

But what about transparent liquor-bottles? Like Gin? I'm shooting a gin commercial right now and it's a real headache 😩

[@AustenPaul]

It would be the same thing you just wouldn't have a back light for the bottle! All bottles bring their own challenges but just take a deep breath and you will get through it!

[@andrejvindis933]

​@@AustenPaul Thank you so much for the reply. Did exactly what you said. Though I didnt manage to remove the camera reflections from the golden part of the top of the bottle. Would love to get some feedback on the video! :) Shot with an x-t4 and 16-80 kit lens. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIioh3uVf79mjK8

[@UdellPhotographics]

which Translum, heavy or lightweight?

[@TheMediaWolf]

How did you turn the book so seamlessly?

[@kyl3flynn]

how does the black background not get noisy if shooting in log i always have that issue

[@Salkin_LP]

Settings :/

[@AustenPaul]

Sorry I’ll get it on the next one!
