​@@MrPaulXavierplease is the 14 day online course still available? And how much is it currently, I'm interested

[@Nofe20]

The way you explain everything is so impactful and well thought out. It's as if you and I share the same way of learning because you pick up on every struggle people have like taking notes, remembering shots, etc. I truly appreciate all of the work that goes into this channel and I have just recently become a huge fan! Thank you!

[@MrPaulXavier]

Wow thank you for this, really appreciate you and glad it's been helping you out!

[@davidgrenier5274]

Your videos are just awesome. There is so much we learn in every single of them. You bet I'm going to take that 14 days course. Can't wait to see what's in there... Every time I'm thinking of what gear should I buy you come up with exemples of why we should start being good with what we already have first and then maybe get pieces of equipment that can help with the content we wish to create. Most videos you make are very detailed and straight to the point with very precise examples. Keep on doing what you do. It helps a lot of people out there.

[@stanleyexplorer]

You inspire me a lot when it comes to anything videography. I have gained more knowledge especially on the 14 days film making course.

[@MrPaulXavier]

Love that!

[@stefaniamariaa]

Id really love to know how to do something similar solo. I don't have any friends locally who are open to creating content together. So while im learning all these super cool things inside your program - i struggle with filming when Im the subject

[@MrPaulXavier]

To a certain point there are a number of things you just can’t do solo. It all comes down to plan on properly and using a tripod to capture the shots with you in them. While editing you can add some subtle movement like push ins and pull outs but big picture I wouldn’t look at this scenario as anything but a fun creative challenge to push yourself even more. Limitations can often be the best motivators to speed up our learning!

[@kevotp1]

Such a great video, love the examples more like this if possible! keep up the great work!

[@MrPaulXavier]

More to come!

[@Rimuru346]

The course it self 😊

[@fyommie]

Every cinematic filmmaking video I watched kept recommending buying a gimble (among other tools), but I wanted to see if it was possible to still produce high quality films without having to spend extra money on equipment. I think I found that video. Thanks for the useful tips!

[@johnleighdesigns]

great inspiration as i have recently ended up going back to doing smartphone videos instead of DSLR for 3 reasons, the 4k on my smartphone blows away the soft 1080p on my dslr, also the smartphone is compact, discrete, lightweight and can be setup in seconds and without any issues from over the top security people around town on locations, and also, because a certain client is actually wanting more user generated style content as if a non professional was filming unboxings or product videos ! I noticed you didnt mention in camera stabilisation Im guessing you are assuming the phones have it and its turned on for these moves - many thanks!

[@MrPaulXavier]

Totally agree! and yes in camera stabilization is the main thing that allows you to film handheld with ease nowadays.

[@johnleighdesigns]

@@MrPaulXavier cool yes - i recently updated to Sony Xperia 1 V and the photo and video is superior to my canon 700d which i still intend to update asap when budget allows but meantime my smartphone is helping me create some great footage

[@EthanSmith]

Man I'd die for a chart of the number of graphics / sounds effects per second over the timeline of this video. Could you add that to the course? There is A LOT going on in the intro, real engaging.

[@MrPaulXavier]

Add a chart? Not sure exactly what you’re asking. But we’re adding a whole section on editing KZbin videos soon!

[@EthanSmith]

@@MrPaulXavier Well graphics are pretty frequent in the intro. Wouldn't be sustainable to do that through the whole video though, you'd be editing for weeks. Then seems they get frequent again at the outro. Would be awesome to have data on how much time to spend on effects throughout the sequence

[@NativesunrealtyJacksonville]

This is what a great tutorial looks like. Fantastic video. Please keep them coming.

[@MrPaulXavier]

We will!

[@LazarLazarovski-x8h]

Excellent tips! You can create such great footage with just the basics. Thanks Anthony.

[@MrPaulXavier]

You’re welcome :)

[@RudolfBrudersChannel]

You videos are on point, made me buy your course. So far it looks great! Even though i know nothing abou cameras as software engineer

[@MrPaulXavier]

Glad you like them! You will be an expert in no time if you keep watching the course :)

[@RudolfBrudersChannel]

@@MrPaulXavierhehe sounds great even though i still dont understand how to make my background blurred on my canon m50. If i dont figure it out i will post a message to you facebook group. Cheers from Slovakia if you know where it is :D

[@jeandesisnards5097]

Another great vid. So informative and well presented. No click bait BS. Just what the viewer wants. Straight forward Thanks for this Vid!

[@MrPaulXavier]

Thank you! We try our best :)

[@Pocketfulofpixiedust]

I love the examples, and I'm making my cheatsheets so I can refer back to them out "in the wild!". I'd love to see a video about your favourite transitions.

[@motolife1387]

I Vlog, Do Lifestyle content and Shopping Videos.. I just want a phone that I'm able to add an SD card to and has great video. I currently have an iphone 12 pro max but I'm over the icloud/storage mess. Thanks in advance.

[@bettaaquatiks2604]

Easy, Mind-blowing tips and tricks which makes one's amateur videos look so professionally done. Love the POV transitions and could you share a tutorials how to do it using Samsung smart phone and the editing process. Also can you show parallax wide and close view edit and compile these views together. Excellent job and Thank you for sharing.👍👍👍👍👍

[@MrPaulXavier]

Glad you enjoyed it! More videos are coming :)

[@danielafederici5817]

You need to include the emotional value to the audience of each move. A director uses these moves seamlessly for emotional reasons. This way they enhance the story.

[@CleVerCPO]

this the video I have been looking for

That POV reel is 🔥✌🏾

[@JustinDavito]

I would love another video on transitions. When would you suggest a gimbal for smartphones?

[@MrPaulXavier]

Only if you have a phone older than the iPhone 12 basically.

[@therealfrddy]

What settings and mode would you recommend on ultra to shoot in a cinematic look/feel. Thanks

[@MrPaulXavier]

That’s hard to explain in just one comment. We have an entire module on that smartphone in our course!

[@brookemurray]

Love your approach to teaching it’s very straightforward and easy to understand. I recently picked up a ronin gimbal and man I didn’t realize the learning curve involved in using it 😅 I’d love if you did a video on getting started with your first gimbal (using a higher end camera).

[@geofflangstoncoach]

[@martinriley9766]

Trying these tips using BeastCam app with my iPhone 14 Pro (to keep control of manual settings as taught in 14 day filmmaker course - highly recommend) but the stabilisation options seem nothing as good as the in built apple camera app stabilisation So loses all the benefits of a gimbal free technique... Am I missing something please?

[@nksharma2114]

Video on your favorite transitions please

[@MrPaulXavier]

It’s coming soon

[@cmc5488]

Ello. You may not see this comment but I'll ask just in case 😊. I saw that you did an Alaska cruise. I am doing the same in July for our honeymoon. I'd like to capture it in video and ii am nspired by your channel. Total newbie so I can't justify the cost of a DLSR nor am I experienced enough. So, I was going to upgrade to the iPhone 15 pro max and for things like wildlife and glaciers a tripod and maybe clip on telephoto lens if needed. I feel like phones will help me more. Do you or others here think this is an ok set up?

[@MrPaulXavier]

That’s a great setup! I’d also selfishly recommend our course so you learn how to get the most out of it!

[@cmc5488]

[@BagpipeTeacher]

Can this be achieved with S21 pro?

[@MrPaulXavier]

It doesn’t have quite as good internal stabilization but definitely still possible

[@thekapiticoaster]

Another great video, Anthony! Quick question, the 60% off Adobe products, how long does that last for? I have a current CC subscription, and I bought your course a couple of years back. I'm always keen to save money, but if the discount is only for a short time period, I'm worried that afterwards the price will increase to more than I'm paying now! (Call me suspicious!)

[@MrPaulXavier]

I believe it's two years worth of a discount and then you can likely re-up the discount with a new email :)

[@thekapiticoaster]

@@MrPaulXavier Thank you. Two years is awesome! I'll get onto that over the weekend. Thanks so much. 😊

[@bevinmore]

Waiting for a video on you tube next where someone says we don’t even need a smartphone to capture cinematic video

[@MrJab1995]

I don’t think i can do it with my very shaky hands 😂. My hands needs some built-in stabilization which did not come from factory.😅

I love this channel 🥹

[@backpackerwebs]

I bought a Gimbal before. It did not work at all. When it tilted, upward, or downward. It rotated crazily and then stop working. It must be a FAIL product. After sent back to seller and "repaired", it was the same. I will never buy this kind of product again!

[@MrPaulXavier]

That sounds like you might have been using a gimbal without balancing the camera properly first, or potentially overloading the weight capacity. What gimbal did you have?

[@backpackerwebs]

@@MrPaulXavier My mobile should be balance well as this is quite easy to achieve that. And this is a small mobile with only 169g weight so overloading should not be the cause. I am not allow to mention the brand in my country as this is a negative review.

[@Rosapixel]

there is always vibration with phone

VIDEO REQUEST: Please make a video on how to use our cellphone as a GOPRO! This topic has almost no content unlike all the other saturated areas being taught and shared . It would be nice to see someone dedicate real time and effort into researching , testing and finding specialized techniques , tools and idea to use say my HUWAWEI p2PRO smartphone just like a GOPRO is used for all purposes such as discreet / secret filming OR FPS filming hands free etc. The more ideas you can cover , the more you can teach , the more video and content you will have that NO ONE ELSE is paying attention to , thus , your videos will become the centre focus of this search result . You obviously know this means a lot more views coming in which translates into a lot more subscribers , shares and participation in your channel altogether even just in the comments and likes . Thanks for the video and enjoy! really looking forward to this + simple ways to make professional content for recording videos where you speak and teach while adding images , text , clips to the screen , how to cut clips from other peoples videos to use such as video AND audio both together or isolated ...how to create great interview/testimony content ...how to get amazing audio outside ...what softwares to film and edit on right now making it easy .. i mean ..the list goes on , i feel a lot of this is being missed . We want to know how to film AND edit AND get quality audio and visual + effects out of it all , video effect , audio effect , the more we can do the better while keeping it clean and simple.
