How to Film Yourself and Look Cinematic

I just love amount of efforts and ambitions she throws into every video. Normal videos of this would normally just be a boring dude with no enthusiasm sitting in his chair listing up things, but Riza takes us with her, shows us, and tells us what she does and showing why it works. When a tutorial or tips video is entertaining, it's nor just any creator. You are going PLACES!

Even the "big guys" on KZbin didn't manage to make such a comprehensive guide to shoot, yet. This is absolutely amazing information you summarized here. From the perspective of working in the industry everything you said is correct and very well explained, especially regarding the motivation of specific creative decisions and their result. The quality of your example shots is !!by far!! the prettiest I've seen in long time!! But the most astonishing thing is the way of your verbal presentation. Calm, insightful, 0% bragging or over-self-confidence. I adore your work! SUBBED!

[@linzhao2235]

@@LifeOfRiza Your videos are so good! You've just earnt a new subscriber. God dang it, wish I could quit my 9-5 job and travel the world. I'm in my early 20s I am still young but I get bored of the daily routine. Work isn't fun. And I can't find my purpose. I've been dwelling on nihilism the very fact that one day we're all gonna die what is the point of trying? But at the same time life can be exciting and right now I'm not in pain and I cherish those moments. I just can't seem to find joy in anything.

[@DanielPerez-xq8cp]

@@linzhao2235 Nihilism is a dangerous trap that you want to avoid. Understand that the world is meaningless, but make sure to live in spite of that fact. It won't help anyone, especially yourself, if you lay in bed all day because "it doesn't matter anyway." Absurdism helped me take a different outlook in life and appreciate the small things. No matter where you are in your journey, even if you're just working a 9-5 which you don't particularly enjoy, there is still heaps of happiness and contentment to be found in the immensely complex mind. It's about bettering yourself and finding happiness from the inside things, not outside conditions. Finding satisfaction in knowing that you are proud of the decisions you made today, rather than finding satisfaction in buying that wristwatch you've always wanted. It's about being happy on rainy days as well as sunny days because your mental condition doesn't rely on the outside things. That to me is the ultimate goal. Hope that helped and good luck!

i loooove that i found this video and this page. i’ve been a self taught photographer for years. i started taking pictures with my ipod back in the day, point and shoot cameras, my phone and eventually when i had enough money i bought my first DSLR camera. all my life i have always seen photography as storytelling. i’ve tried to maintain my photography like this. i want to tell a story behind just one picture. i’m not a pro and i don’t even consider myself as one but what i do consider myself is a lover for art and a lover for photography and cinematic photography/videos. i’ve enjoyed the process of each photo i have ever taken and when you said to enjoy the process i felt relieved to hear that because some people enjoy the aftermath but not the journey of it. and that’s completely okay! but for me, i love to enjoy the journey of telling a story by just one picture or a short video. thank you so much for this video, i immediately subscribed because i enjoyed this video and loved how you explained everything. thank you so much!

I always enjoy to see young ppl get into the craft, its a dying art form in some ways. But I especially enjoy seeing young women get into it because there simply isn't enough representation within the industry, even and maybe especially at the top A-list level. This has to be inspiring for other young aspiring female creators out there, and just young ppl in general. Also, you have a great sense of mood and motivation in your compositions, and I appreciate your ability to make your message about the craft, rather than the central focus of the type of gear, that so many aspiring, and even seasoned professionals get caught up in. At the end of the day, art is the antithesis and freedom expression against the psychosis of blind consumerism. Congrats and wish you much success going forward. 🎉

Just discovered you, and now I’ve subscribed! ❤ There are so many points you mention in this video that I can relate to. Having been a tv editor for ~10 years, it can feel incredibly isolating when you’re working on someone else’s passion project and become conditioned in this way to the creative process. The jump from this to full independence is invigorating and terrifying. Not relying on others is one I can heavily relate to… it means diving head first into the depths of your own creativity and sharing that with the world. It’s incredibly vulnerable, brave and freeing. But you normalize it here and share it in a beautiful way. 🥰 it’s also so lovely to see more and more women in this field!

This is an excellent point about process and habit. The more we repeat the same creative processes (whatever wee are making) the easier it is to be conscious of all the choices we are making, and it is incredibly motivating when we can make a decision based on lesson we learned the last time. It gives us a real sense of joy. In fact, this is true of any skill, like driving a car or cooking dinner.

[@shainablindfilipina]

I felt it when you said learning how to love and enjoy the process.As a film creative we often just brush away the feeling of doing the production after seeing the final products but what I realized over the years I tend to look forward more on doing everything again from scratch the pre production the scouting even the editing that takes more time than anything - just being in that position is ecstatic enough that you're a part of something that could be bigger that whatever you first thought of. Thank you for sharing this. Watching from the Philippines ♥

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 📽️ Learning to film yourself is a valuable skill for creators; it allows for independence and avoids reliance on others. 01:07 🎥 Essential gear for solo filming includes a camera, tripod, and a versatile lens like 24-70mm. 02:55 🎤 Consider using an external monitor and a microphone for better control and audio quality when filming alone. 03:47 🎬 A motorized slider adds dynamic movement to your shots, enhancing the visual appeal of solo-created content. 04:23 💡 Lighting is crucial for cinematic quality; utilize natural light or invest in lights to transform your footage. 05:46 📸 Experiment with different angles and placements of the camera to create shadows and enhance cinematic feel. 06:45 🌐 Achieve diverse shots for storytelling; establishing shots, long shots, and close-ups provide context and immersion. 07:40 🎥 Utilize stock footage libraries like Storyblocks for time-saving access to visuals, sound effects, and templates. 08:37 🎬 Filmmaking is a tool to convey a story; make purposeful shots, enjoy the creative process, and learn to solve problems to enhance solo filming experience.
