But is there? ...is there C roll? :P

[@moovintruespace994]

Where to start? 1. Your background is off the chain 2. I need to shrink you and carry you around in my pocket 3. You made me realise how shit my new channel is... but thank God it's new! Thank you 4. I am going to do your homework! 5. It's people like you, that change peoples lives. You are amazing. Suddenly my future looks so much brighter. I never realised how much fun and how hard it is to create these brilliant shots. I love experimenting and now you have really opened my eyes... 6. How anyone cannot sub and have notifications on, after watching this is shocking! You simply Rock. Thank you x

[@bwilesuk]

Think I learned more from you here in one video than three years at uni.

[@UndineAlmani]

I've watched so many videos about b-roll. I still don't feel ready to start filming (analysis paralysis...). But this video really encouraged me and even offered some new, unique advice. Thanks, man!

[@RafaBerlanga]

A centered, symmetrical composition . . that's hypnotic to me!

[@Neerajuttwani]

He is the man, inspired me to start my own youtube channel. Thanks Jeven Dovey keep up the good work... My favourite composition is a tight closeup shot of an eye ball projecting the reflection of what you are doing on the screening of the laptop. Damm man that shot always mesmerize me.

[@kevinwells4986]

I now know that I know nothing. I want to have fun, and shoot video for fun. I've always loved it (and flying). But really, I need to strip down expectations and search for 'fun' - at least for me. A story is always necessary. Thank you for yet another great video.

[@PersXpress]

B-roll with such a beautiful baby is allways the finishing touch. 😍 So the B stands for Baby-Roll 👶-🎥💡😊

[@fambike9670]

You're a good teacher sharing all the formula for a better us 💯

[@seandavis8213]

I legit feel as if I'm in a homeschool class of filmmaking.

[@JevenDovey]

Awesome! Lots more coming!

[@NickFaulkner]

Same

[@Maninthewhitehouse]

I've been working on my b-roll for a few months now and it getting better! Thanks for the tips, great channel for beginners

[@blackpheonix]

you, my buddy, are a fantastic teacher, love all your fantastic stuff!

[@sheponcole458]

I don't understand why some people always dislike good contents

[@neilwilloughby1221]

Hi Jeven. This is a fantastically helpful series of videos. Thanks so much from the UK 🇬🇧 !

[@hassenhamadeh826]

Love this so much! This is really helpful advice for someone just getting started. Thank you!

[@johnclay7644]

Good points on b roll it is not just slow motion and what is the purpose is really useful.

[@TheAntipreneur]

Thank god! A B-Roll video about B-roll and not another "filmmaker" showing slow motion sequences and calling them B-roll. :)

[@TooGood79]

Ram up to slow mo then ramp out. 😍 still learning tho.. thanks for the tips! 👍🏾

[@JyForFun]

Finally! This is what I’m waiting for as I need to learn a lot about B-rolling. Thanks a lot! 😁

[@kevinmiller7184]

Good basic tutorial. Clearly covered the fundamentals.

[@ronaldquint]

A reveal shot, like medium to large. I also love a focus pull.

[@Leeroyz1]

Awesome tips! Awesome advice! I’m definitely inspired and always have been by your videos Jeven. Great work!!!

[@JevenDovey]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@AutoAmateur]

Jeven, I'm a huge fan of your channel and your content. I'm always learning from you, thanks so much!

[@namkyukimpark]

Feels like I'm leveling up watching your videos!

[@ungavaproductions]

Excellent presentation......very usefull to me as a beginner with videography. Thanks for sharing

[@jaysantiago-BX-NY]

Epic video and content, as always!!👏👏👍 My favourite composition is the "hero shot!" With the right sound design they just make my day! Lol

[@peteskyrunner4845]

Great video man. My favourite composition is a perfect reflection shot.

[@GRUBB-MUDD]

I forgot how good u were at teaching this stuff. I wish u would do another video about b roll. no offense but to me that has way more value than a video about crashing the new fpv drone. wish u would get back to teaching

[@fakiraoye]

I'm really happy I randomly came to this channel and here I can have all the content I want to learn and that too in easy detail form Thank you for these content ✌

[@subhajitdutta4106]

The last tip is really awesome...great jeven.

[@EdCatlett]

A couple of things that I like and are cinematic are videos by the Hungarian Rock Group "The Hu." Yuve Yuve Yu and Wolf Totem are 2 great songs and videos to start with.

[@RyanMOutdoors]

Great tips! My favorite compositions are a drone flying away from mountains going from close up to wide view and footage of fish swimming under water attacking lures.

[@huntfisheatrepeat2373]

I love super wide composition!!!! Thanks a ton for posting this Jeven Dovey! B-roll is amazing if done well and this helps immensely!

[@STUDIO-ew8dz]

Very good aproach to describe how it should be done. Thank you. 📸

[@Shalaco]

00:06 I'm not just talking about 120fps slow-mo. "Why did you look at me when you said that?" - Peter Mckinnon

[@JevenDovey]

😂😂

[@Jesse_Dawg]

Please more on how to B-roll and how to organize it and how to montage B-roll in interesting ways. Thank you and please more

[@ShavonSmith]

my favorite composition center framing with symmetry

[@DarkBlueNutrition]

These are great tips as I start to include more b-roll in my videos! Thank you so much!!

[@EakinsOutdoorAdventuresEOA]

Thank you for the good information I just received my 22 mm wide angle lens And can’t wait to test out some new B roll ideals

[@Aedith]

The composition I love is having a close up of me talking to one side of the frame, then an off-focus back ground of (beautiful) nature. Haven't succeeded yet at it though :-)

[@wb_finewoodworking]

Great ideas. Lately I’ve been concentrating on my B-Roll but have left out the mid distance shots. I’ve been taking mostly far away and closeups. In fact today I’ll go back on the project I’m currently working on and get some mid distance shots. Thanks.

[@Anyinzon13]

Hey man, I just discovered you and you are awesome, very clear information.

[@Sirkanuts]

Thank you for the awesome tips. Inspired me to make more videos and practice more.

[@kevinwells4986]

One more comment... I'm near retirement. I've always loved video, and what we can do with it vis-a-vi computer software. Photography, which I was never that great at I think, is also so much more enhanced by current technology - maybe making someone like me at least better. At this point in my life I'd really just like to contribute to experiences for others, which means both video and photography - to capture those moments for others that I wish I would have had once. Actually I think I did have those moments, but the technology is so much improved to record them. This has not been relevant to your video except I recognize how well you teach someone as dumb as me. Thanks again. Subscriber for life - as long as that might be.

[@LittleIslandPhilippines]

I learn more from watching this video, thank you

[@robertbarnes5839]

You always do such a great job at explaining ....thank you so much for sharing this information with us. It’s such a big help.

[@stevenyes1269]

Very very nice work man. I can see all the story, transition, color are beautiful. Inspire me to create more in my channel.

[@davetompkinsmotorcyclevlogger]

Loving your tips thank you for sharing this video with us all, Dave 👍

[@CurieuxNomades]

Great content Jeven! I love to shoot hidden behind a subject. Thanks a lot! Anne (& Eric)

[@jarethtv1386]

Very informative.. specially to guys like me whose a beginner in photography/videography

[@JevenDovey]

Make sure you check out the rest of the videos in this series

[@kevinwells4986]

My favorite compositions by the way are from the channel SVDelos - they are just video recordings of their adventures, but their editing is done very well. It's not the same subject I grant you, but I hope you note their channel as you are an inspired person, as well as everyone that has served upon SVDelos. Sorry for three comments in a row. I'll stop now.

[@rougegan]

Great video, thanks Jeven. Just one question: what method and support do you use to plan your videos? Do you always write a kind of script? Simply by using a pen and a sheet? Or a text editor on your computer? Thanks again!

[@Mediacable]

I have tested many script editors. Story Plotter (free) works best for us. Nowadays we use Trello to full satisfaction to plan assignments / activities. This allows us to work more efficiently and prevents a lot of frustration. I hope I have been able to help you with these tips. Of course, it remains different per person and company which fits best.

[@rougegan]

Mediacable thank you!

[@ScottLawPhotography]

I've enjoyed your videos and been a subscriber for many months now. I always enjoy your no nonsense, direct and clear approach. Thank you. If you're looking for an idea for a future play list how about telling us how you organize your footage after you get back from a trip, like the Canadian rockies hike. How do you save it, mark it, etc. etc. to know where the volumes of video is to retrieve and use it, not only for the current project or vlog, but to get back to it later if you need to grab a snippet for something like this??? That would be a great help to me and I'm sure to many other creators.

[@Piyussh]

Yay, a much needed video. Love from India. ❤

[@RyanBrock365]

You've come a long way, man!

[@AJDonnelly]

Another awesome video! I'm just eating your tutorials up this weekend! 🤣Quick question; you asked at the end what was people's favorite composition, but i don't think you mentioned what YOUR favourite composition was? Do you have one? Has it changed since you made this video? I'd love to know your thoughts!

[@gautamheble]

Great tips man! Love your videos!

[@adelineoparah]

Close up shots is my favourite

[@thephotoroad]

[@robamsler9853]

Great tips!! Thank you. How do you store/file all your b-roll clips and video? Cloud? Multiple local drives? Just thinking how much content there will be...

[@koveanthanpon]

Please make a course on storytelling. Much needed 🙏

[@JevenDovey]

Hi Jeven! Any input on the Mavic Pro 3 convo? I see that you have the Air 2. I bought it last week with no knowledge about the 3 and its release. I hear rumors that its due on September 26th. Do you think that will replace your Air 2?

When does the Jeven Dovey Film Academy start? I'd like to enroll. I've never went to film school but I can say this is quality stuff.

[@JevenDovey]

I have all my courses on creatorfilmschool.com. Working on the filmmaking section of it right now.

[@tonyskyviews]

Great Video! 👍🥂

[@onthemenucookingwithrogera8194]

Thank you im struggling because i dont have the equipment so i have to get creative.

[@JevenDovey]

All you need is a camera

[@onthemenucookingwithrogera8194]

I know but we've been using phones and now gopro cams for multiple angles but they don't like to be on for a long time either and i burned one. The quality was not that great either but at least we can create lol.

[@WallaceLivingFree]

So good again, thanks

[@GregorPQ]

A camera movement like in the beginning of 'Rear Window'.

[@johnmurryvlogs8603]
