How to SHOOT a dialogue scene!!

[@ek93765]

This one knows how to talk without talking too much, straight to the point, also with humour, which makes me laugh and learn at the same time, brilliant. Keep it up man!

[@D4Darious]

Thank you Erick!

[@talkingtekkerz1393]

Best filmmaking channel on youtube

[@zhezpac]

The best!

[@belugastudios4770]

One of the best

[@towerfilmscanada867]

Agreed.

[@neonerfilms]

Talking Tekkerz I love D4Darious with my dear life....but you've heard of film riot, right?

[@talkingtekkerz1393]

E&Entertainment I watch film riot all the time but I find it easier and more interesting to watch darious’ videos

[@RandomlyOniC]

I just have to say you are smashing the transition game! Saving this video for future use for sure!! Thanks for constantly sharing dope content.

[@epicradioent293]

I like this. I'm using your advice for my new sitcom #Klassless 👌👌👌👐👐👐👐

[@ShutterPop]

the best part of these videos are the crazy transitions.

[@YCImaging]

Fire! I’m gearing up to shoot my first short

[@D4Darious]

+YCImaging congrats on making that leap YC. That's a good look. I'll be looking for it ;)

[@thediamondgeezer3756]

Hey Darious, I just wanted to say thank you. For the last 2 years I've been struggling so much with my writing and any idea I get, I either forget about it or I just work with it then give up. I felt like I couldn't do it despite so many times when I wanted to. My depression didn't really help either. I felt like anything I made would be terrible. But then I found your channel a few months ago and it opened my eyes and I can't describe how much your videos have inspired me. I've now wrote a script for a short horror movie and we're shooting it next week! And it's all thanks to you, your videos and your inspiring advice and guidance From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping me believe in myself 😊

[@keelan270]

I’m watching your videos to help with my animation blocking, composition, film lingo and general stuff. Love your content man.

[@aesthete7227]

*THIS IS SO HELPFUL 👌👌👌*

[@D4Darious]

Thank you for commenting Najma!

[@meg-k-waldren]

Really love how your mind works. And you sound like SUCH a cool director for an actor/ress to work with.

[@alvaroelias4929]

I’m starting my short film this weekend and I’ve been thinking about different ways to shoot a dialogue scene although it’s not a dialogue heavy film. However, this helped a ton and I will use it for future projects. Thanks Darious, you deserve endless success.

[@YoungBlaze]

have you done a video on what blocking is?

[@AtomicAimer]

The "zoom-to-ring-light" transitions were so slick! Awesome style to incorporate in your videos! I love it!

[@DrQuest44]

Your videos are the most HELPFUL on KZbin. Ever. Much respect.

[@BeanDar]

Thank you for actually keeping it short and to the point! I loved this video

[@towerfilmscanada867]

Great advice as always. Have to remember that the script is not the be all to end all.

[@josephpoitras3090]

Of all the vids I’ve watched on this. This one actually was most helpful. Ty

[@covenc]

Really like the last tip!

[@YoungBlaze]

how do you record consistant audio for master shots/audio with out seeing the boom operator, do you just get the actors to act out there lines with out the boom operator, then move in for a close up have them redo thier acting then add a the boom operator but in post use that audio to cover the wide shot?

[@JoshBayer]

Transitions on this were fire.

[@OldBisbeeRoasters]

So APPRECIATE you - thanks! I come back to your channel regularly, the content is educational and your style is fast moving and captivating. BRAVO!

[@eugenesmirnov252]

As obvious, short and strait to the subject. Very good. All is debatable, but it works.

[@SudburyIndieCreatureKon]

Ya, I just would like you to know you do a fantastic job with these videos and the content is phenomenal. You're a great inspiration to a lot of people and I am basically just saying, Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Really appreciate it brother.

[@neoray10]

i agree close shots are easy to get but i would say that a wide angle shot does add up a lot to the story , even though i kinda run out of time

[@BellaBeastTv]

DAMMMYOUUU D4 those transitions were sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk was watching it frame by frame

[@thirdworldorder5575]

[@abennyjfilm]

Great vid darius i just wanted to ask if u could do a vid about how to talk to / rehearse with actor?

[@LionKingMedia907]

Good looking out.

[@tycooper7780]

Interesting D. I would rather have the wide shots if I run out of time and depending if am shooting 4k then I may even crop at times to get closer depending how much I may lose in the framing. Not preferably but a possible option

[@AtelierMcMuttonArt]

Man, nice work on the editing- love those transitions!

[@jamescamren4757]

Always amazing work. Thank you for the insight.

[@TurboBeads]

Close ups are always the go to,

[@2noobsplay723]

Hey Darius, I’ve been a fan of your videos for sometime and your channel is really helpful. I recall being in the fifth grade and we watched a video about finding theme and my teacher didn’t cancel the auto play and your video played. It was pretty funny. Just wanted to say I’d really like a video about horror films (like directing chase scenes) I always loved to go to my cousin’s house and just make movies. Most of them made no sense, but we enjoyed making them. I want to get the rebel t6i for my birthday and I’ve been brainstorming scripts for horror films. I hope you find this comment. Thanks for all your help.

[@ajaykumar-oy9ie]

I want to ask a personal question.after graduating from film school what are the jobs we can get.how can we make livin out of it.and how you do.love d4darious

[@hugovioli]

I think you should think you about the relationship between your characters during the dialogue before deciding whether you shoot a « clean single » or « over the shoulder ». Separating characters within the frame usually represents a disconnection between them, and dirty frames usually represents a connection between them. You can also film character 1 in a clean shot, and film character 2 over the shoulder with character 1 taking a lot of a space in the frame to indicate that character 1 has moral power of character 2. Obviously, there are no fixed rules in cinematography, but these decisions affect a lot the viewer’s feelings of the relationship between characters and I don’t think you should take those decisions lightly. That being said, I love your channel thanks for the work you are putting in your videos!

[@theguyoverthere3257]

[@KnightSama]

What is the difference between medium shots and close ups?

[@maccurran7612]

KnightSama like a few inches

[@duolightningproductionstud1435]

Closeups will have the subject take up the entire space while with a medium shot the subject still takes up some space but more background is shown.

[@ASSADZMANFILMS]

Yea this is awesome sauce

[@theDanDeleon]

Why do you use over the shoulder shots for family members?

[@InfernumPictures]

I'm glad you dug it AIB!

[@aibfilms9721]

I learned so much from u man👌✌

[@lucasduarte5799]

Sup! so, did you have any list of cool youtube channels to use as reference?

[@reneelucero2923]

Hey dude, I was wondering if you could talk about the cinematography of the critically aclaimed Breaking Bad? It's the show that got me into cinematography and really made me understand how much the camera affects the impact of the story. It's also the most gorgeously shot show I've ever seen (apart from Avatar: The last Airbender, but that's animated so I'm not sure if it counts).

[@JagaJonez]

So Freaking happy you did this video. .. im filming this coming sunday and i was rackin my brain on how to shoot because it is dialogue heavy and a short portion i wont be able to use OTS shots... thank you darious you beautiful person you

[@D4Darious]

I hope this comes in handy and good luck on the shoot Fam. I know you'll kill it :)

[@JagaJonez]

D4Darious thanks man! 👊

[@praautoss6613]
