YESS the video I've been waiting for!!

[@lelandlevsen6131]

Sure, I've enjoyed your videos for a long time and a video like this has been missing until now. Thanks for that, I learned a lot!

[@Slowed-Reverb.offical]

bro your voice is literally the most calming thing in the world

[@Noahs_Photography]

This is great! A dedicated color grading video would be awesome!

[@HeliNaik]

Yes Please!!!

[@ChapterswithHannah]

Yes! Love the color grading for this video!

[@sleepy1108]

PLEASEE DO A COLOR GRADE VIDEOS

[@ihmintz]

Pretty please 🙏

[@LensDistortions]

Please.

[@KunalBansalCreation]

Please Also tell us the luts you use

[@Neeintje]

mans is a one-man production powerhouse 😱

[@jiwonmoon]

Teo, you made art out of a "how to make a video" video. Wow. It was both beautiful and extremely useful. Laying out audio before adding the video clips is something I never thought of doing. I also appreciate that you are creative with your tools and don't buy the newest gears. I loved this video. Thank you so much, Teo!!

[@teocrawford]

Ahh so happy this was helpful to you! Thank you for the kind comment🫶🏼☺️

[@ehname1]

Your perfectionism in your voiceovers is one of the main reasons I love your channel. It's such a smooth listening experience that makes the videos much more enjoyable.

[@Eztaian]

Very informative, your process is very thorough. I know you said color grading would take a long time in this video, but I'd love to see a video of how you do color grade. It makes your videos so warm and comforting to watch

[@Chopstlcks]

This one 🗣️🗣️

[@JPchecks]

He said they’re on his patreon, judging from how thorough this is for an overview, it’s probably worth it (:

[@iwasakisony13]

Not just a tutorial was worth watching, but the visuals, cozy touch, and aesthetic are so good that in the middle, I forgot that I was watching a tutorial rather than the short movie. Beautiful! ❤

[@drewc5091]

The amount of work that goes into one video is insane, great job dude, you are my new favorite creator!

[@innominativecompany4231]

These videos are always so relaxing, and before I know it I've sunken into the vibes of calm photography and ended up learning something along the way! I literally don't understand any of the technical stuff but they're still super enjoyable videos

[@mgyeri]

I'm in love with your work, the attention to detail, your perfectionism when it comes to voiceover, the color grade... all of these things just add up to form an incredibly relaxing but entertaining and informative video that never feels boring. Thank you for your videos!

[@alexkurkin7371]

The phrase you used to describe your process "audio-first experience" really did resonate with me and allowed to me think differently about video creation and storytelling. Thank you for sharing your experience!

[@streetwithane3382]

Honestly that audio recording thing you're doing is jus pure genius. You're getting every cent out of that camera.

[@bauringdifoe1433]

Exactly what i asked for !! Love all your videos man!

[@jeezzlouisee]

I think you are doing a really great job with giving your audience a quality experience when they go to your channel. I have been looking at other youtubers who do cinematic videos and I can say this is one of the best ones I have found. Your process and execution of whatever you have in mind is really good. I hope to also capture life and show it to the world. Thanks for sharing the process of making your craft.

[@sodrimesmo]

I can't stop seeing your channel. I just loved so much that im speechless , is soo good, so calm and detailed. Please don't stop make videos and tutorials. I hope to start on this career following you. So Inspired!

[@VidsonsView-w3b]

I really love your color grading. Can you please make a breakdown video?

[@beejaygalvez3059]

Your works are so inspiring Teo, please continue creating art. Sending love from the Philippines 🤍

[@terrywilhite]

Superior in every way. Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@emyp.7594]

god, watching your videos is SO soothing, this is the perfect little corner of the internet that you created! I love you videos a lot. this was very informative and interesting to watch :) I never thought about writing ths cript not as a first step or making the video's Audio before the visuals but it makes perfect sense!

[@Marc-Antony]

So good!! I’m about to restart my KZbin journey and you have been such a big inspiration! Thanks for the tips! 📸

[@tenzin8773]

Teo, I’m so glad I stumbled across your KZbin channel and I love each and every one of your videos. With this video, my respect and admiration grew even more because of the love, care and the level of detail you put into each and every video. Thank you 🙏

[@tbromedia]

I really dig the idea of getting the audio laid out first, especially if it is very voiceover driven! Great tips!

[@Carryyourpassport]

Love from India brother. Absolutely loved watching this video. I am a beginner and I needed some quality guidance such as this, each and every point was broken down and explained so beautifully.. Keep up the good work brother. Grateful for your craft 🫶

[@KevinKolbe]

Fantastic workflow and overview too. Love the "simple" gear used for maximum performance too. Creativity doesn't need the fancy, just you. Great work!

[@DIYBuilder]

Your colour grading looks dope man❤❤❤

[@Unknown_Real]

Teo, I think it would be a great idea to do a video on 'cheap cameras on Amazon' and tell your viewers that equipment doesn't always matter. I'm a huge fan of these types of videos! ❤

[@olivierparlephoto]

This is very interesting to see you (or someone) starting a video with the sound track first.I wouldn't have thought of it !

[@AnastasiiaPetrych]

This was insanely helpful, thank you Teo! It's interesting how gear importance is different for photography and video. For digital photography of more or less steady images, I'd say a lens is much more important than a camera body. But for videos, a camera body is of greater importance, since it defines auto-focus and raw format.

[@JPchecks]

Yall his color grading videos are on his patreon, I’m sure they’re worth it !

[@Havenotats]

Deep Dive into the mind of Teo 💭 (I love it

[@stevensonrf]

Got to say: I really like the audio of this video. Great voice; great audio.

[@Ghazalkhalajzadeh]

Love your energy❤

[@TourayMediaGroup]

Great video! This was the first video that i saw from your channel and i subscribed immidietly. Top notch quality!

[@ShmavinShmenhouse]

This video was super useful and super thorough. Thank you for taking the time to share your methods!!! Really inspiring

[@lilacdiaries]

Love the vibe of your video 😊

[@SotaMaehara]

Wow we have really similar gear, good stuff! It's cool how KZbinr's of completely different niche can benefit from similar gear

[@louisee3759]

Amazing Teo!! Always inspiring, thank you so much for that.

[@daveschmidt9367]

Thank you genuinely inspiring and motivational; I struggle to do voice overs , and scriptwriting is the more boring side of the journey I’m on; your commentary was really encouraging 🤟

[@6h0stb0y]

My fav photography KZbinr fr tho

[@k1ttyyh]

Excellent video as always, and I gotta admit, that squarespace ad was golden! I hope they are paying you well for that extra effort you put into it :)

[@morimentos]

the god of editing, my favorite creator! thank you for this!!

[@johannaflowers_]

This just made me oddly happy. I always thought people who make videos on such a professional level always have a tight skript and moodboard or even storyboard before they start filming. Really nice to see that you have a similar progress to me that only starts to develop into something visual after you have finished recording the skript already :D

[@HyunSehyun]

Watching in south Korea! Every single of your videos are super professional. Hope your videos never ends. I happily wait for your videos. Thank you for your videos and I hope your every photos and videos goes well. Cheering from the other side of the world! 😊

[@duztyvlogsquad830]

man i like your grading its so Good.!

[@mndoci]

The color grading on this was just wonderful. Good stuff

[@barki_8662]

What a great video. Truly enjoyed watching it

[@AlexOnStreets]

Your videos are always so high quality. Good work!

[@teocrawford]

Ohh shoot, hi Alex! Thank you so much, I appreciate the comment :)) I just recently listened to your podcast episode with Flo - it was really fun to get to know you a little through that :D

[@ruslanidris2546]

Thank you for the tip 😊 wishing you success 😊

[@AyushSinhaVlogs]

The way you talk😭❤

[@fulmanikhalkho4694]

Please make a video on colour grading❤❤

[@Katie-Lei]

Love our filmography and colour grading! May I ask how you film the super close shots in 0:02, 0:05 and 15:00?

[@raharja.]

mannnn, have you made a tutorial about your color grading? i love the color, like i'm not joking

[@kjdoesit]

Great video. With a fledgling channel, I'm constantly learning and I greatly appreciate well crafted videos like this. I especially found your editing and exporting interesting. My editing takes a long time because I like to do everything all at once as I go through my timeline. Yours feels like it's more efficient, but I've tried with just audio before and that feels unintuitive to me because I don't know where my footage will be placed with it at first, and I'm not sure how to overcome that.

[@hardworksmart]

Teo, your videos are beautiful. Thank you for making them :)

[@gary.likes.photos]

Thank you for this. As a small content creator his is so useful

[@NiisExperience]

The only youtuber not using Sony a7siii

[@KaceyBakerFilms]

🥴

[@pancakelens75]

Interestingly my Rode Videomicro will not work with my A7IV

[@yudansha63]

​@@pancakelens75And my Rode Videomic Go II works perfectly with my smartphone 😊

[@zekecabbs]

You mean "FX3"

[@FlameFilmAndSound]

He’s literally using that cam and has it is in description as his main cam 😂

[@KarlSkorger]

This sony pr be crazy bro.

[@Shak1ryousuf]

Dam it! I watch in 4K this film, and its improved my knowledge a lot and the light part was dam 👌 i was thinking that i am gonna buy a very good light, but you suggest me this good light and microphone 🎤 great to see you keep going buddy much appreciated to you for this video

[@nirjachavan]

wow the explanation was thorough and neat and this video itself had so many things to learn from! it kind of did scare me from editing though heh

[@marcuswyn]

Hey bud! I was hoping this video came out one day or another. Followed your account because of the sheer focus of beauty, narrative, and simplicity (despite the huge work that goes in!) I'm only entering the world of videography, so after finally looking at my first gear purchase in the next payslip, seeing your gear match 95% of my buying list gave me a warm chuckle to realise (the exception of A7Sii for that sweet sweet video focus and affordability!) Despite not being into photography myself, you have a way of swaying those into the elegance and impact it creates. Have a lovely life ahead, friend! And looking forward to what comes next.

[@gregoryj.martell4879]

Brilliant watch! Thank you. :)

[@WestRenly]

Thank you very much for sharing your insight!

[@chaoticlauu]

another cool and very useful video, thank you so much Teo for making us part of your amazing work!

[@IDoManyThings]

I've been in love with your videos visual side for so long now and just yesterday tried to figure out if you've uploaded a video like this!

[@hossam.hs1]

this is so helpful thank you so much i would love it if you could tell us more about color grading keep going

[@gerardneedham]

You should buy the ameran 60x with the small rig 99w battery and the aperture mini soft box This set up will be a similar size to your light, but way more powerful, no cables and it’s bio color which is super important when shooting indoors

[@teocrawford]

Thanks for the tip!✨

[@Loticoti]

As always a seriously great video!! Hope more people see it soon, I think your channel can inspire people to change the way they make videos on youtube!

[@adaaam69]

great timing because I got myself an xh2s pretty recently

[@misterp9326]

Thank you Theo !

[@AmiraDeuraseh]

so excited for this one!! 💚

[@AndrewPaul1]

[@Andres_Martinez.]

This was so useful for a project I have. Thank you!

[@maikdmann]

Very helpful and interesting to see how your art is coming to life! :]

[@ponderwithjess]

That was lovely

[@98sannesophie]

This is amazing, thanks for sharing!!!!!

[@uncleshu92]

Thank you for sharing, Uncle Shu from Sarawak, Borneo Island visit your channel Bro 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@itsjustbbd]

This is such an informative video. Thank you so much for sharing your process do detailed like this. It was so helpful :)

[@onlyamanalexander]

Great video mate, can you tell the thumbnail font name

[@padilhakat]

does someone already said that your voice is so lovely??

[@KillerTacos54]

As always, fantastic video Teo!

[@privatename8228]

Very interesting video. 👍

[@Veered2Train]

Audio is 🔥

[@justnegrito_]

Such a lot of skills! Great work man. 🪄

[@Daniel-ge6df]

Great video! Just realized the photo from patscherkofel in your video :) greetings from Innsbruck :D

[@kohronicles]

You should replace your Samyang 14mm with the new Laowa 10mm f2.8 :) It's wider and has better auto focus!

[@jaketrevathan]

Bro showing us how to get it done lol EXCELLENT work

[@yanlecloth6844]

love your video

[@Sidola97]

Love this video🔥 and I just wanted to ask what font you used in this video?

[@EV-47]

Thank you for this video Teo!

[@yashesvi-raina]

Quality is just optimal!

[@Dan_photo]

Absolutely amazing work Teo! Was the video you mentioned with the interview out already? I can’t see it.

[@teocrawford]

Thank you!🥹🙏🏼 Yes, it’s one of my last couple videos called “the simple habit to improve your photography”🙌🏼

[@JasonMcMullen]

You said you use HLG on the Sony A 7 III, which HLG profile do you prefer? Your footage looks great and I also have the A7 III

[@jfs_films]

Love this!

[@dileeshunfiltered2138]

Great Video! But I’m confused, how do you shoot the talking head shots after layering the audio according to the script? Do you replace the audio from the talking headshot again?

[@Dineslars]

was looking for this comment because I was confused on this part as well, sad to see that it has not been responded to tho :(

[@sashas9221]

Ive nevee thought about such a "reverse engineering" as building sound+music first, and then add visuals. Ofc i dont edit video as often as you, but im quite familiar with this process, and i always add music at last place. Maybe ill try use this tip in a future :)) And about 14mm. I LOVE wide shots, expecially well composed. I think, its more about perception and immersion closer into scene as a viewer, and not about "my room is too small" hehe) As always the video is magnificent ♥

[@teocrawford]

Ahh glad I could add something new that you didn’t know yet☺️🙌🏼
