I've been a sucker for ''Day in the Life of a Software Developer'' videos for the past 5 years. I gotta say, Luke, that even after watching dozens of those, this one is definitely one of my favorites. You're doing great. Greetings from an aspiring developer from Venezuela.

[@LukeMadeIt]

thank you! 💜 i wanted to make it relaxed and also play around with the color grading a little more haha goal was to make normal everyday tasks look cool 🤝

[@tole3590]

Bro outdid himself for this video, insane commitment for some of these shots, the far away camera angles, the phone screen overlay, the music, the nice keyboard sounds, bro really cooked. Also great message promoting fitness, self care, good sleep, keeping your place clean and eating healthy. edit: the colors are insane too man marvel studios taking notes 📝📝 I wanna ask if you take any time for studying CS outside of work like your own projects or upskilling? Also have you thought about a robot vacuum cleaner bro

[@LukeMadeIt]

💜💜💜💜💜 LOVE MEANS ALOT TO ME FR and haha ive been realöy bad with school lately ngl, ive only used work exp to get the credits for project courses and stuff 🤔 and all my freetime is basically spent on youtube so not doing projects anymore, ive been learning alot at work though so no real reason to make projects rn that robot thingy is defo on the list would be nice to keep the place consistently clean, when the sun hits the floor you can really see the dust unless you have just vacuumed 💀

[@apertioopening3425]

Nice video! 👍🏻 I just watched your other video on replacing gaming with coding and it has inspired to do something creative. My sleep and workout have already been on point, but I've still felt fairly aimless in life. I don't think this will be my purpose, but I won't know until I've tried!

[@LukeMadeIt]

love 💜 its hard af to find the "thing" for you, for me ive always just tried out different stuff and then ended up liking some of the stuff for example i never imagined i would have loved making videos as much as i ended up doing 🤷‍♂️ just gotta fail a thousand times to get those wins

[@anaskhaled-5442]

your filming abilities is just getting better , keep it up bro , one thing i just like if it was a voice over

noted 💜🤝 most of my other videos have talking head / voiceover sections but every now and then i like to make these cinematic only videos too but dont worry next video will have more voiceover style 👊

[@brianruizy]

@@LukeMadeIt Very cool, would love to visit Nordic region one day!! Last question lol, did you apply some halation effect in post? or is it a filter? I like the look

[@LukeMadeIt]

@brianruizy you defo should in the summer time its beautiful 🤝 for the grading I again used Cineprint 16 so if you have davinci you can try it out too, its not a lut or filter but more of a color grading workflow and it has halation effect as part of it for some clips i turned it off though as i felt it was a bit too much 🤔
