In this video I'm giving you some tips on how to find the BEST camera angles for your KZbin Videos! Many times people try to use a low angle shot or a high angle shot in their camera angle types and cinematography. Knowing techniques like the rule of thirds, leading lines and negative space will help you level up your videos.

Incredible thanks. With no formal background in video, it’s been a blast learning to create spaces to provide the viewer with a certain experience. As a musician it reminds me so much of a buddy who was excited to play a few songs he wrote…they sounded awful on his iPhone, but was kind. I took him in my home studio and began re-recording a song of his, but professionally. His eyes just lit up with excitement from the first guitar take.

I'm surprised you recommend to position yourself in the middle rather than off to the side (like in photos). I find it helps to change positions left to right in the frame to reset viewers attention and also helps with text overlays. You've got me thinking about using a corner angle rather than a flat wall where I hang my backdrop...thoughts?
@benjohnsoncreative
@benjohnsoncreative 3 жыл бұрын
Try out the corner angle, cool thing about shooting in the middle is that’s typically where the lens is sharpest and you could crop in post to position yourself on either side or leave in middle
@Drostvideo
@Drostvideo 3 жыл бұрын
@@benjohnsoncreative ok thx for the tip...filming in a corner angle makes sense in terms of using leading lines and adding some depth. Curious about your thoughts of using a colored background (like you have) versus a backdrop such as a wall hanging (which is what i currently use) or shelves? It probably depends on your audience

Hey! What was that thing mounted on top of your camera? Didn't look like a monitor, was it a mirror?

Yes! This was before I had a good flip out screen. This mirror is a great hack! amzn.to/3uv6Ump

Thank you!!! I needed help with camera placement, as I've just been kind of winging it and wanted to get it right, your video was the only one that focuses on that so it was perfect!

How do you get your background to be darker than you in the video? I might be wrong but it looks like you have white walls. I do as well and they reflect the light pretty heavily. I love the background look but not sure how to achieve it.

It has a lot to do with camera settings as well as the placement and brightness of your key light. This video may help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpvIqYeNf8R3aJY

It’s a lifesaver for Sony cameras that don’t have flip out screens haha. It’s a little mirror monitor: amzn.to/2PbxBKM
