[@roledotoledo]

Info on the location? Love the interior!

[@harley21production]

hello brandon superb video even if I am French I very much appreciate your tutorials where you got your filter which is not screwed to the case but above thank you for your answer sandrine

[@vladamirkb1]

You're a very lucky man.Cheers

[@leeentertainmentchannel247]

Ur a lucky man. It’s been tough for me to find a talented subject. All I get r clueless thots that ruin my shots

[@CREXPO.]

SHOOT YO SHOT

[@SigurdurBjorgvinsson]

4:25 "Remember if nothing's moving in your shot, you're not making a movie, you're shooting a photograph" Thank you for this video, it really helps me a lot!

[@ChrisParayno]

4:49 But too much unmotivated movement can be distracting as well

[@proctoscopefilms]

Then you have Ozu films where the whole scene is a still shot of two people sitting on a hill LOL

[@ElvioAnderson]

@@proctoscopefilms Nicolas Winding Refn moment

[@TheJadedFilmMaker]

not really ! too much un motivated movement can look cheesy and noob. I hate when a shot just starts moving for no reason... or... rotating! 😅

[@yega3k]

This becomes obvious in edit - no movement looks like a still frame lol

[@cambylim]

Oh man this is an encyclopedia of filmmaking knowledge you’re throwing to us for free Brandon! Thank you very much

[@brodystofflet177]

It’s so wild to me how much depth there is to cinematography. No wonder it takes years for people to find their own style of filming. Thanks for the explanation Brandon.

[@secondhandbuilds6113]

Brandon Lee, half human, half gimbal. Thank you, excellent video.

[@flochfitness]

There is no other youtuber that uses camera movement like Brandon Li. Excellent!!!

[@mistermastermind528]

As a storyteller, I like my camera movements to be motivated unless the unmotivated ones cover necessary story elements. I literally just had a lesson with my students about how to shoot static subjects and one of them was to move the camera. So this was really a treat to see.

[@MNDRCKVisuals]

Bruh, with Brandon's gems contents here on KZbin.. who needs to go to a film school. Thanks man! 🙏🙏🙏

[@jensenperalta7927]

Guys don't skip ads! this guy deserve it. no bs video is gold. unlike others that starts with a coffee broll or onewheel inside their studio😂🤮

[@digwillhachi]

yeah for sure, could name so many that fit that.

[@27nashid]

I feel very surreal after watching this. The feeling you get when you find the missing puzzle. The answer to a question that you needed to know but you didn’t even know how to ask it. Thank you Brandon!!! Very proud and grateful Unscripted Studio member. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
