What is your favourite camera angle?? 🎥

[@HiethGeorge]

6 use it all the time ⏲️

POV

[@SamHolland]

Good choice 💪🏻🎬🎥 have you seen false alarm by the weeknd music video?

[@jessesenko]

I'm thinking of specializing in the toilet/fridge/oven cam niche.

[@SamHolland]

@@jessesenko some of the finest shots are captured in those places 😛🎥

[@nrgao]

Love the psychology behind some of these tips, especially the 30 degree rule and using drastically different angles to build more drama or suspense while a simple 30 deg. feels like a shift to the next thought while maintaining the same tone.

[@SamHolland]

Hey Dru. I’m pleased you liked it. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤩🙏🏻🎥

Better call Saul is a masterpiece when it comes to intentional and emotional composition.

[@dumblicker7024]

Well then, i guess i should better call Saul

[@RenCinematic]

Masterpiece. I really noticed this yesterday in the beginning of episode 3 of the last season.

[@davidgambin2551]

Better call Saul is a masterpiece, period.

Also like how you made the two shots of you as the director and you as the student make us feel like the director is dominant and the student is a subordinate ;)

He should make a "bingewatch/clickbait masterclass" :))

[@BTMovieSecondChannel]

I also use a ‘side-on’ to establish a conversation scene and as a variation perspective to break up the monotony of over-the-shoulder-shots. Do you think is a neutral way to use this perspective? Or is it too disengaged in your opinion?

[@ThePrince2395]

This video is so brilliantly put together, keeps you engaged the whole time, and wanting more by the end. Well done Mr. Holland

So glad you made this video. So many people are just buying cameras and claiming to be film-makers, without basic understanding of cinema techniques/film psychology. This leads to utter shite cluttering up our screens. Credit to anyone getting creative, but don't ignore the basics.

I'm gonna start all over now that I realize I was doing so much of it wrong, but it'd be great if you and other documentary filmmakers could watch it and give me feedback. It's only about 4 minutes cause I only started on it recently. If not, no worries 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2ndlKCjoLajb6ssi=aJSQ4MA_Io-QCRbv

[@MichelBosch]

Boomer alert! Started working as a cameraman in the mid 90s; the go to handheld shots were from the shoulder with ENG cameras, so roughly at eye level UNLESS you were trying to make your subject more heroic... Skip to now, where most cameramen started out with DSLRs or similar lightweight and boxy small cameras. In 90% of KZbin videos by cameras are held bij the handgrip. Underslung? Is that even a word? Hero shots galore. Do you reckon anyone has even wondered about this before watching your video?? Just my two cents..

Great video! You explain everything so well in your tutorials. I have a question though, at 4:27, you say having the horizon in the middle of the frame is useful when hiding/showing certain details of the environment. How so?

[@SamHolland]

Hi. Thank you. I’m pleased you’re enjoying the videos. Honestly, it’s not really a rule. It really all depends what’s in the frame. In this case, it just looked better because of the height and placement of the videos and subject etc. I wanted more clear space above. No rules. Do what YOU want to see 🤩👌🏻🎥

[@ciberman5558]

Thanks! Got it @@SamHolland

[@introdoose9371]

Love the videos! Quick thumbnail idea/tip? The arrow lools like you are moving forward. If you put another line and a half quater circle thingy to resemble the angle sign. Then people might not think it's movement. Unless obviously it was your intention xD Love your content so watched anyways :D

Nice video. As audience, I always found the 30 degree angle seemed a bit strange when used during interviews. Sometimes it sort of just stands out as a weird angle, especially when it’s a close up in those documentary style interviews. It’s like, where are they looking? And why?
